Cobalt Dreams
When I bought this top I was too in love with the colour to really consider how the length of the top would make me look a bit stumpy. I mean , hello... it's long enough to be a dress on me, how did I miss that?!
But anyways, I figured if I pile all my hair on top , and stack on some heels, then this would add about 8 inches to my otherwise 5'4" frame :)

Casual Neutral Sundays

^Top / Witchery
^Coated Snakeskin White Shorts / Witchery
^Leather Espradrille / Seed (also seen here)
^Sunglasses / Karen Walker (seen here, here and here)
This grey and white top has gotta be one of the most versatile tops ever, not to mention comfy AND breezy. Now I want to get the black one and also the singlet version for the hotter months coming up. Perfect for a Sunday morning stroll, a casual brunch with friends, or a breezy afternoon of reading in the sun :) I wore this top on a makeup and hair job I did for a wedding not long ago and even though the day was grey, it was still quite humid, yet I didnt feel an ounce of fluster with it being long sleeved. This is possibly my go to uniform for hands on beauty relayed jobs like hair and makeup! Slight stylish attire whilst remaining comfortable and neutral is the best!
And as for these espadrille, I try not to wear these shoes too much considering the white leather, and then Seed goes ahead and brings out a tan and black version. They really need to stop doing that, it's getting unhealthy!
I can't get over how cute that wee fluff monster was, peeping out under the gates to see what was going on in his hood while we shot these photos :)
We're finding it difficult finding accommodation for Bailey Buster Lee over the Christmas holidays, while I did consider taking him over to NZ with us for the Christmas break, the price of doing so was way to high for a short period of time, not to mention the potential trauma of being on a plane. Not to fret though, I've found a home for half the days we're gone, now just hoping there are some willing volunteers to have fun with him for the other half of the time that we're away.
Happy hump day guys... nearly there...nearly there!

Plaid & Leather
^Vero Moda Plaid Tunic dress worn as a Shirt (also loving this shirt here)
^River Island Leather Skater Skirt
^Windsor Smith Leopard Heels
^Karen Walker Sunglasses (also seen here)
This plaid tunic dress would have been worn more as a dress if it wasn't so ill fitting in the lower region for me now. But the simplest solution is just to throw a skirt over top and taaa-ddaaahhh, different outfit and an updated way to wear something that had been sitting in my closest for donkeys years. Having worn pleated skirts all of my high school life, I was never really a massive fan of wearing them beyond that time either. But an updated matte leather (faux or real) option has made it all the more appealing, especially if it cinches the waistline for a more streamlined look that is a little less 'baby-hit-me-one-more-time' :)
Hope you all have a great start to the week. I'm mustering all my strength in hope that the work week will go by quick!! These weekends go on way too short and the cheeky monkey we have at home has made these last couple weekends a whirlwind for sure!

Little Black Playsuit
There's no denying that all girls should have a little black dress (LBD) in their wardrobe to provide a bit of versatility and also back up for wearing out to any occasion.
Little Black Playsuits can also be just as versatile, especially for the non-dress wearing girls.
Apart from the obvious fact that I forgot to properly steam iron this playsuit before going out, I absolutely love how its airy, feminine and encompasses the unexpected lace detail. It can be dressed up, paired with a tailored blazer and heels to go out for a special occasion, or dressed down with flats and hair up for a casual affair.
^Little Black Lace Playsuit from Beginning Boutique
^Heels from ASOS
^Fuschia Pony Clutch from ASOS
^Sunglasses from Karen Walker
^Bejewelled Necklace (very old)
I love a good playsuit, long sleeves, no sleeves or short sleeves. I'm currently on the hunt for a long pant jumpsuit that will be light as a feather (it got to 33+ deg. cel. here in Sydney today!), that will also not make me look like I'm about to jump out of a plane to go skydiving.
If you don't like black, I would say the next versatile shade has to be navy blue! See the blue version here!
By the way Bailey says hi!
Hubaloo Jase and I are exhausted from training this little one to sleep and I've definitely turned into a puppy mama by getting far too excited and enthusiastic whenever BB Lee goes on the pet loo. Crazy! He's only been with us for 5 days (and we have also been sleep deprived for 5 days), but we absolutely love him to bits!
Hope you all are having a good start to the week!
