Equipment blouse, Manning Cartell shorts (similar), Opening Ceremony sandals (similar), Proenza Schouler PS11 bag, Marc by Marc Jacobs katie bracelet It’s hard to really get serious about winter wardrobes when the temperatures are still languishing in the mid twenties, and on weekends shorts are all you care to reach for. Truth be told, in a complete turn around from a mere few weeks back, my mind is firmly focused on sleeveless cotton tanks and raffia woven sandals – the latter of which is not the least bit helpful, especially when the rain is involved. Most surprising for me, aside from…

And so the adventure begins

And so the adventure begins

With my time evenly split between being completely rushed off my feet, and trying to find some sweet solace on frenetic sun-dappled afternoons, the adventure well and truly has begun. Snatching those quick moments to spend some time browsing, or actually posting for that matter, have been far and few between, as I find myself slipping into new routines that have had me almost completely disconnected.

Having spent my weekend knee-deep in boxes, constructing my first couch from IKEA from scratch, and finding a home for the many (necessary) bits and pieces I picked up, I’m more than ready for a couple more days off. Through the madness, I’ve rejoiced in the simple pleasures like wearing your favourite striped t-shirt over and over, and a slice of freshly…

Alexander Wang tank, Lover cheetah silk shorts, Porselli ballet flats, Proenza Schouler PS11 With my second week in Sydney almost at a close, most days I’ve been wearing little else but a wisp of a top and the slinkiest shorts I can uncover, as I scurry around the city. My Porselli’s have proved to be indispensable for everyday wear, the supple yet sturdy leather faring well as I spend hours pounding the pavement. Somehow, wholly without complaint, I’ve found myself crawling out of bed at 6am every morning, as the temptation of watching the sun rise along the cliff walk…
