Dressing Up

Coat - Vintage (similar) // Dress - Miss Shop

I'm not so good with dressing up because I don't have many occasions where I have to, so when the time comes I opt for casual dresses or that can transition well from day to night. In this case I've gone for something minimal and wore this basic skater dress that I've made just that little bit more formal with this sharp car coat. While I do love the idea of going all out glitter shoes n'all I think this is an easy outfit to put together when you've tried everything and nothing's worked and your train arrives in 5 minutes.

Dress - Wayne Cooper (similar) // Earrings - MATY // Booties - Nordstrom

I'm so excited to share this look with you guys! We thought it would be good to mix things up and show you a more dressy outfit that we would wear for a special occasion. I remember when I saw this dress about six years ago, I knew I had to have it - it's just too cute. I have a thing for loose, metallic fabrics, and this is one of the nicest I've seen. I also wore this pair of silver earrings because I felt they matched with the dress really well, and then completed the look with my black booties.

Peacoat - Miss Shop (similar) // Button up - Glassons // Jeans - Mavi // Scarf - market (similar)  

The excitement for outerwear weather has unfortunately come to a short end with yesterday being the last coat-worthy day until Winter.  No fear! I had fun nonetheless figuring out what to wear with this "accidentally" minimalist navy pea coat. By accidental I mean all the buttons just fell off at once - a fault I kind of prefer! 

Oping for a preppy/oxford-collegiate look, I've worn this coat with a thin white button up, these super comfy Mavi skinny jeans and bronze/brown metallic scarf my mother found at Green Hills in Manila. 

Tee - Cotton On (other tees) // Blouse - Vintage // Shorts - Factorie // Shoes - Dr Martens // Sunglasses - Sportsgirl // Beanie - Cotton On

Autumn is here but I'm still clinging onto those pastel colours. My outfits always reflect how I'm feeling, and at the moment I'm just constantly in denial of the weather getting colder and more miserable. This day was following the intense Sydney storms, so it was still a little drizzly and nippy, but still warm enough for me to reach for my lighter coloured pieces. This blouse is one I pulled from my father's closet and I actually quite like. I really want to go shopping for more vintage blouses but alas, I have no money haha.
