the diaries of a reformed shopping addict
Bonjour Mes Amours ♥ When we travel we do not get to choose the weather, however, we always get to choose our disposition. On this cold and drizzly Parisian morning, I chose 'Sunny'. Straight up Avenue George V, past the flagship Louis Vuitton store (it is huge by the way). It was spitting rain the whole [...]
Hi my loves, as promised here is my (mildly heartbreaking) list of Worst Designer Purchases. A quick disclaimer, there is no item on this list that I don't find beautiful, you may have one of these pieces and absolutely love it, however for one reason or another they just haven't turned out to be good [...]
Ruffles have been a massive trend this year and I have absolutely loved it, so girly and fun! Much to my delight by the looks of the current Autumn/Winter collections from NYFW, LFW & MFW I would say they aren't going anywhere just yet - Yayyyy! Being that it was such a heavy trend I [...]
So its Spring, but I live in Melbourne so its kind of like welcome to the end of Winter still not quite the beginning of Spring. Anyway I think I have a few more weekends of wearing sweaters and boots for my brunch uniform which simply means I get to rotate all my favourites one [...]
I currently have a justified obsession with Statement Sleeves. For a long time lover of the 'Jeans and a nice top' outfit, the current trend of statement sleeves is really quite a fashion joy.

Yes I know, Spring is technically here in September, but October is where it really kicks into gear bringing with it daylight savings, noticeably warmer weather and the count down to Spring Carnival. Needless to say I am excited about the next few months. So [...]
When the sun starts coming out and the days start getting longer and life is just generally more lovely, like clockwork I almost instantly find myself needing to swap my black staples for shades of tan, beige and white. An LWD or Little White Dress is almost like the Spring/Summer daytime equal to the LBD and it [...]
Winter. Once I am over the initial shock from the cold snap of Winters icy air and grey rainy days I have to say I actually don't mind the cooler weather, it brings out the chicest layers of all the fashion seasons, endless extra foamy chai lattes and it is Boot season! I am definitely finding myself [...]
It seems so simple doesn't it? But in a full or overflowing wardrobe, eight times out of ten this is the key to the problem of 'I have nothing to wear'. I often have nothing to wear which is absurd because as I have told you my wardrobes are all well and truly overflowing, unfortunately after [...]
I know a lot of you reading this will probably be sitting thinking what exactly is 'designer shaming'?? Well, I will tell you by way of a story. I was recently sitting at work when a manager came over to me and as I was buzzing about doing things, I noticed he was eyeing off my [...]
