Sock-spiration

Snap! It just turned really cold in Sydney, like overnight.

No kidding, I was at Bondi last weekend, in a bikini and now I’m dreaming of thermals.

All I have thought about all day, is wearing socks. My feet are so cold.

But how do you sport socks and still look chic?

I’ve consulted some street style snaps, so you don’t have to…

Future Classics

There are lots of great international fashion sales on at the moment and with a strong AUD and great shipping rates, there’s never a better time to buy up.

Here are some classics with a twist….

These Maison Martin Margiela booties are just beautiful. While the loose fabric on the ankle may look hard to wear, the 4-inch heel will counteract that by making your calves look powerful and strong. Team with ultra-skinny leggings or an above-the-knee skirt. The Outnet approx. $387.05

Blazers work wonders and this winter-white version will take you from the moment you roll out of bed, to the moment you roll back in… the strong shoulder detail paired with a single button will give you a taller, more slim silhouette… and it’s a S.T.E.A.L! BCBGMAXAZRIA Gardenia one button blazer via Bluefly approx $95.93

IRO Skinny leather leggings. A good pair of black pants should last you a good few years, and a well-cut pair, in leather can make you feel amazing. Keep them as slim and tailored as possible, with very minimal detailing. Approx. $429.83 ASOS

Diane Von Furstenburg Gold Belt. Gold belts are one of my fetishes, and a chic, streamlined skinny will take any outfit from sad to glad. $143 from Stylebop
