Sorry for the lack of online activity of late – managed to catch W’s cold and generally just laying a bit low in hopes of a speedy recovery! In the last week I’ve mostly been fervently juicing up and trying to boost my immune system with all kinds of fruit and veg; fave combination so far being orange/celery/apple/ginger.. which has helped to some degree. I’ve been quite obsessed with the idea of juicing, so I went and bought myself one of these. Mum’s had one for over a decade now and it makes the best juices ever!

Here’s an outfit from the weekend where I threw on my thickest, chunkiest knit and probably over-dressed for the warm-ish 24c weather we had. This crepe jacket was a love-at-first-sight purchase when I first spotted it in store in Sydney, then I got home and realised that it was much cheaper online (?) so I returned it and bought another. Definitely worth the wait for it to get posted over. The longer front and oversized cut is just perfect to throw on top of everything – I’m wearing my usual size 10 (UK/AU) – even surprisingly roomy enough to throw over this Alexander Wang knit with it’s chunky sleeves. (Here’s when I wore that knit last on the blog.)

And now I just need to find myself a pair of gloves.. :)

Elementary

  • Zara Draped Top
  • Zara Draped Top

This draped top is adding a literal twist to my classic white tank and jeans combo; something I used to wear so often that I considered it a uniform of sorts. Definitely grateful for clothes that allow me to roll out of bed early on a Saturday morning and look halfway coherent. Here’s another way I styled it recently. And this is the Helmut Lang version that inspired me to hunt this down!

I think I’m getting to a point where I consider most things in my wardrobe “basics” and find myself more partial to non-bodycon things, slightly baggy jeans. Is this what 30s are like? Am I turning into my mum? No time better to say this than the day after Mother’s Day, since my mum is possibly the best person I could turn into :) And while I’m on that subject, a happy belated Mother’s Day to all you mums out there!!

  • Zara closed toe strappy sandals

Just walking thru the U of Sydney grounds yesterday and half fantasising about being a student again. A miraculous stoke of luck that we had such a nice day; only lasted a few hours but enough to throw some shorts on and bask in the warmth and take a long walk to Newtown for a lazy lunch and mag shopping. Nice to spend some time thumbing through leisurely instead of thinking about deadlines at work.

Well and truly obsessed with this Zara tank – shoulder geometry is so money and a long curved hem that hugs in the right places. And these shoes seem to toughen up everything I wear them with. Definitely getting my money’s worth at this stage, though a bit gutted it’s not actual leather so at least they could take the abuse better. Enjoy the weekend :)
