pretty wings


Review Dress; Louis Vuitton Speedy 30; Christian Louboutin Simple 100 Heels

There is something about setting a white dress against the LV monogram that is so timeless and lovely.

This dress has been my old (or new?) realiable for a couple of weeks now - wearable to lunch with flats, dinner with heels or out for drinks with hair up and red lipstick to boot.

I hope you all have a very safe and very happy Christmas wherever you are in the world!

P.s. I have been obsessing over this track the last couple of days - "I need a dollar" by Aloe Blacc.

Follow your heart


Leona Edmiston Betty Dress; Chanel Bag; Christian Louboutin YoYo Heels




I initially had my doubts when handing over my credit card to buy this dress. The financial advisor that resides within my brain (who has always had poor fiscal scruples anyway) was even telling me - "REALLY? You are going to pay that much for a cotton dress??"

Fast forward to a few months later and an excuse to finally break out the dress - a date with my best friend to see the musical Hairspray (which, by the way, totally blew my mind - I have watched the movie about 1378494 times, but seeing it live was amazing)

Anyway - having worn the dress last night, I am officially converted. And the beauty about a dress like this? No outfit stress necessary. Just remove hanger, pop on, and go. Perfect.

Friends, food, music, drinks, dancing, summer sunshine, long days and warm nights.

Life cannot get any better right now!

Gosh how cute is this man....He is a tram conductor. Apparently next year the iconic old green and yellow trams are coming back to Melbourne. He was so lovely...He said to tell you all to say hello next year on the trams!

Melbourne Muse



Norman (of Musing Mutley) represents a lot of what I love in men's style - neutral tones, clean silhouette, beautiful natural fabrics with a touch of individual quirkiness. He just looks effortlessly cool. The boat shoes are my favourite part - they convey so much character and story.

We joked that this outfit is quintessentially Melbourne but it really is - I am proud to live in a city that possesses such great style!

a piece of paris: part une


I have never really been the kind of person who is ever lacking in something to say (quite the opposite problem, actually...)

However, when I look at these beautiful boots, everything in my mind goes very peaceful and quiet.

I am guessing that this sensory over (or under?) load would be very similar to what would occur to the mind of a young man when an attractive woman walks past and he's stopped talking to his friends, and now is very clearly concentrating extremely hard on watching her pass by!

And now I suppose the only realistic assumption we can draw from this today...I am a shoe pervert.



C. Louboutin Paola 100 Lace Booties

These guys have been hiding away in my room for a while now waiting for the weather to warm up (rain + mesh = no deal), but they are too lovely not to be shared in the mean time.
