I love sunglasses. I have a small collection – currently at about 12 pairs – 3 of those I rotate on a daily basis – depending on how I feel. The others sit quietly in a draw waiting for their moment to come again. My favorite… a pair of Dolce & Gabbana I bought in Amalfi whilst holiday with my sister… aaah those were the days!

So I have always had a bit of a fear of the ol’ double denim. I think it has stemmed from the days of wearing your running shoes with your jeans… urgh makes me cringe! But then… double denim can look amazing…
The other day I wrote about New York, the love for the city and the ability to get lost in amongst the concrete jungle. I should however speak of my second favorite city… London. One of my dearest friends has the pleasure of residing in this great city. She has the ability to jump on a train to Paris or nip over to Rome – something that is in-comprehendible when living in Australia. When you travel people often tell you ‘wow Australians always travel for a long time – 4 weeks, 6 weeks sometimes months on end’… the reason… it takes us so long to get there why on earth would we want to leave so soon… and so… this post… is for her… so jealous.

I think its love. New York city. I have never felt more at home whilst not being at home. The shopping – yes it’s amazing – but when you are on a budget it is the streets that take you in under their wing. Wandering The High Line, finding hidden treasures in the Chelsea Market or just sitting on a lone park bench in Central Park.
People arrive on a daily basis to lose themselves in the big apple. Sometimes I wish I could do the same – but until then… it is only but a dream.

Is it just me or is there a presumption that every woman loves a shoe? I know Manolo Blahnik, Christian Louboutin, Jimmy Choo – the list is endless… and yes I will admit I do love myself a good hoof (despite not being able to afford it) There is something to be said for a good heel. Initially it was used to accentuate a nice calf but know it is all about the arch – the way it elongates the leg, the structure. It is not so much about ‘something to protect your feet’ but a piece of art. The leather, the perfectly placed jewel… and that is not even the start of it… There are the comfy street sneaker (Chuck Taylors my personal fave) the chunky biker boot staple and then when all is not lost there is the Hunter Wellington –the boot that is not always appropriate but you do anyway because all you want to do is channel your inner Kate Moss.
love Beyonce in her Isabel Marant sneakers – seriously despite being a number of months since I first saw them… want want want!

I will admit it — I am a home body.
Quite content in my own company and happy to laze the days away with my head in a good book (or my mac)
I am so inspired by interior design. I love the minimalistic look and yet I love clutter. I love the look of big pile of fashion books or even the classics sitting on a lone chair in the corner of a room. It serves no purpose yet a feature in its own right. Mixing the old with the new and getting that perfect balance of comfort. In my view – in some cases – one home cant possibly be enough!

… and I’m back. It has been an interesting 12 months. I quit my job in the fashion industry and in-turn lost touch with what I love. It was not until recently whilst enjoying a cold beer on a summers night and solving the worlds problems that I came to the conclusion that life is to short to get so overwhelmed with what pays the bills. I needed to re-ignite the flame… and so… with that… here’s to new beginnings…..
