So Coronavirus continues to change the way we live our lives. One way it majorly affected me is that I’m working from home. There’s obviously a bit of an adjustment working from home: less social interaction, less exercise as I’m not walking to the train station, temptation to wear pyjamas all day, easier to eat … Continue reading April 30 by 30 Wardrobe Remix Challenge: Working from Home Edition
This was our first Christmas since moving to Melbourne. We originally thought it would be just the two of us and the cats for Christmas. But in about November, some of the family decided to make the long drive to Melbourne to spend Christmas with us. There were concerns the family might not make it, … Continue reading An Atomic Cherry Kind of Christmas Outfit
Since I have moved to Melbourne, I've really noticed that I don't have my photographer (aka my sister) around to help me with photos for my blog. I am slowly training my boyfriend in the art of blog photography, but he has only just learnt that you need to take more than three photos... The … Continue reading Vintage Denim for a Modern Girl
Those who know me, and those who have read this blog, know that I love the vintage, retro and pinup styles. Unfortunately, being a lawyer means that I can’t wear this style all the time.

Sometimes it's hard to stay fashionable when it's so hot outside... My go to summer outfit is definitely a playsuit. You get the comfortable practicality of … Continue reading Summer Days & Cool Breeze
It seems that affordable and vintage are mutually exclusive... I've been searching for pretty vintage finds for a while, but often I have to settle with vintage inspired clothing. Then I remembered that the somewhat vintage itself store of Landspeed Records stocks some excellent threats. There's a great selection of clothing at the back of … Continue reading Spring Vintage from Landspeed Records
Anyone who knows me knows that I don't shy away from a theme - I'll take any excuse to get dressed up! And I definitely love any period theme, especially because it's super easy to grab something out of my every day wardrobe to wear. Earlier this year I went to the ACT Young Lawyers … Continue reading Stepping Back in Time to a Casablanca Ball
Circle skirts were all the rage in the early fifties. Whenever you think of clothes from the fifties, you would often think of circle skirts. And I love that this particular style has come back into fashion in our modern age! I have many circle skirts in my wardrobe, and the collection keeps growing! They … Continue reading Lilac Modern Vintage
Back in October 2015, went on a wine tour with some of the people in my office. It was lots of fun and I got to meet lots of people in my field of work. Like many other events, I spent a lot of time planning my outfit. I jumped on to Pinterest for some … Continue reading Polka Dots and Wine Tasting
