Firstly, apologies for missing last week’s linkup. Let’s face it, it’s a crazy (but awesome!) time of year and we all have too much to do and not enough time to do it in. You may have noticed that I have a thing for shoes, more specifically pumps. My 9 – 5 gig has me in a stuffy office most days (often much later than 5!) and pumps are THE answer to every corporate type’s shoe prayers. They are sleek, comfy (mostly) and mean business. This week I’m sharing 11 perfect pumps, some of which prove you can still have a bit of fun in even the most conservative office. Read on for all the details …

You may have noticed I have a slight obsession with handbags and shoes. Who am I kidding, it’s a major obsession. Accessories can make or break an outfit and statement bags always add the finishing touch. I have a healthy collection and today I’m sharing some of my favourites. Read on for all the details …

Hey guys! It’s Wednesday again! This week has flown by. If you happened to glance at my side bar last week you may have noticed that I took a quick trip across the ditch and spent a week in the North Island of New Zealand. If you are thinking of visiting the land of the long white cloud, check out my New Zealand travel essentials post for everything you need to know before you go. I usually share lots of outfit photos from my trips but to be honest most of what I wore in NZ was completely unworthy of sharing. Our week was a whirlwind of activity and outfit choices were dictated by comfort and practicality rather than style. But in the interests of keeping it real, I did decide to share something of what what I wore while I was away. Ever wondered what to wear kayaking? Well I don’t profess to be an expert on kayaking attire by any means but I can certainly show you what I wore. Read on for all the details …

Who loves the Wizard Of Oz? Maybe a better question is who doesn’t! I remember watching the classic movie many times during my childhood and being captivated by those sparkly ruby red slippers. It was undoubtedly the start of a life long love affair with a pair of fabulous shoes. My shoe collection has grown over the years to include some pretty impressive specimens which I love dearly, but this week I want to share with you an extra special pair made especially for me. By Prada. My custom made red Prada pumps were inspired by Dorothy in the land of Oz and are every bit as fabulous. Talking of made especially for me, make sure you also check out KiST candles. My friend Kylie and her lovely daughter Tiana made this beautiful bowl for me and each one they make is bespoke. My standard order is for ‘super strong’ frangipani but check out all her fabulous fragrances here. Read on for all the details …

Is there anything quite as versatile as a pair of jeans? There are so many styles, cuts, washes and colours it a minefield choosing exactly the right ones for you. Gone are the days when denim was reserved for the working man, these days jeans are at home in almost any situation. I love my jeans and I thought it would be fun to flashback to some of my favourite denim looks over the last years or so. Read on for all the details …

It’s been a while since the Mini-Enablers have been on the blog and Ms 10 informed me that it’s high time they got another feature. I looked back and they were last featured in December 2015. Look how much they have grown! On photo day (Sunday) we happened to have an impromptu dinner with The Enabler and family at our local club which presented the perfect opportunity to show them some love. Remember how I told you in my Waiklele Outlets post that I picked them up some True Religion jeans for the bargain price of $20 a pop when I was in Hawaii? Well, since I live in them it seemed like a no brainer that we all rock our True’s this week. Read on for all the details …

I’ll admit it … I’m a sucker for designer accessories. I don’t wear them slavishly, mostly because I can’t afford to, but I would be lying if I said I didn’t get a little thrill out of wearing my very special pieces. Today I’m piling them all on. Chanel, Dior, Gucci, Georg Jensen and Tiffany & Co are all here and I have combined them with two of my favourite high street brands; Cue and The Limited. Read on for all the details …

We all have special things. You know what I mean, the good cutlery that only comes out for guests or a special pair of shoes that are ‘car to bar’ only because you don’t want to ruin them. Well I think it’s high time we started using those special things more often. If they bring so much joy why should we only use them a few times a year? I recently received this stunning statement necklace from Happiness Boutique and I was originally going to save it for a special occasion (Melbourne Cup is coming up you know!), when I thought better of it and found a way to incorporate it into a more casual style that I can wear every day if I want.
