I distinctly remember a photograph of my grandmother wearing a blouse and a pair of tailored, high waisted shorts. Her elegantly set curls and immaculately pressed shorts stood out in stark contrast against the weathered chamferboard Queenslander and the short cropped summer grass. Not only is she one of the most effortlessly beautiful women I know,…
Every so often we need a little reminder to pause. For me it has come in the form of a full to do list. Nothing ground breaking – just the daily grind, an accumulation of tasks, and a few extra and exciting tasks that I signed myself up for. It’s nothing I can’t cope with,…
Who else is dusting off their lighter layers for Spring? It’s no secret that I’m a fan of warmer weather with clear blue skies and long balmy evenings. Now that the weather is warming up I’m looking forward to greeting all of my dresses, shorts and sleeveless tops (at least in the southern hemisphere –…

I first heard the term “capsule wardrobe” when I read the book Zero Waste Home and immediately resonated with the term. I could definitely relate to opening up my cupboard…
Rob and I are feeling very lucky to have just come back from a beautiful week skiing in Jindabyne, the Snowy Mountains. Gosh, I hadn’t realised how much I needed that time off. You know when you take a long exhale in yoga? It felt like that. It was my first time visiting the Snowy…
A pair of neutral coloured pants has been on my list of to-buy wardrobe staples for a while now, so I was pleased to have recently found this pair from Manning Cartell. I love that they are a relaxed fit, but still tailored enough to give me some shape and can be dressed up or down….
