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. So it is often saved for the weekend instead. But sometimes I don’t have anywhere to go and I just … Continue reading Pin-up Pageant Preparation
I love wearing modern clothes that have a vintage feel to them. One brand I love to wear that has a vintage feel to it is Review Australia. I started buying clothes from Review only a short while ago - partly because I couldn't afford it until recently, and also because I didn't realise the … Continue reading Mystic Rose in Autumn Leaves
It's been a scorcher of a summer in Australia this year. Apparently January 2017 was one of the hottest January's on record with plenty of days over 35 degrees. 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.

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

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
First off, I just wanted to say a big MERRY CHRISTMAS to all my lovely readers and followers. I hope your Christmas was filled with joy, laughter and fun! I definitely had a fun (and busy) Christmas this year. It was a big Christmas at my parents place on the Sapphire Coast with lots of … Continue reading Chasing Kate for Christmas Day
I bought this dress off eBay for work, and I have since realised it is so versatile. Every woman should have a black work dress that can be worn for other events as well, such as dinners and special events. The thing I love about this dress is that it's a little bit vintage. The … Continue reading Black Friday
Whenever I hear the term "Lady" I think of two things: the cocker spaniel dog in Lady and The Tramp, and the way that women dressed back in the thirties to fifties. Also, I'm pretty sure there is a Tom Jones song called "She's a Lady"... Which is now stuck in my head thanks to … Continue reading She’s a Lady – Vintage Barbie’s Signature Look
