Outfit tales from the basement

Winter outfit photo taking comes with its own set of challenges therefore these basement photos totally made the cut. I love these jeans, they are op-shopped men's jeans from Vinnies and I cannot describe how much love I have for them.

There are DIY sand-blasting plans in the works for these babies and right now I am on the look out for similar ones for my sister. This made in Vietnam pretend Hmong top is another Vinnies find that I LOVE.

Hope everyone's having a great week.

Lazy chilly nights

Super Flares: One teaspoon, Scarf/ Scarf-top/ Bag: India


Lazy winter outfit worn to get a mug of steaming hot chocolate round the corner from home. Paid hibernating winter leave should be mandatory during the winter months. Happy almost mid-week.

Rain washed streets

Jeans: Levi's, Gifted, Bag: India, Jewelery: All over, Shoes: Sportsgirl

I love pictures taken after the rain seems to have washed everything clean and shiny. I haven't been posting much because work's been keeping me heaps busy, its become cold and I am perpetually in my uniform du jour consisting of non-tight jeans, pure wool sweaters topped off with beanies, Grandpa cardigans and boots. Bright bags really cheer me up over the colder months and colourful socks keep me entertained. What do you do to stay cozy but cheerful over winter?

Still obsessed with my DIY army bag

Dress: Anokhi, Bag: DIY, Boots: Vintage, Jacket+Jewellery: India+Sydney markets+All over

Another surprisingly sunny day, with a different block print dress from Anokhi as well as heaps of shells added to other assorted jewels and my latest favourite DIY bag plus the icing on the cake; a pretty kitty who followed us to a park and played with us all afternoon. If there is a better way to spend a day I don't know it!

Shapeless flowy cotton dresses are my favourite all year round, just add a pair of tights, thermals, a couple of jackets when its really cold and a bright beanie and its PERFECT to me. I constantly wish there were more of them in my wardrobe and then open it to see I have a tonne of them already and am still left wanting more. What can I say once I like something I decide to be loyal to it for the rest of my life. And now onto the bag, it goes with everything, there is not one thing in my closet that it looks bad with. How awesome is that? I almost hug it to sleep every night. Hope everyone's having a wonderful week. Happy Friday world!
