Thought as I loved Columbine’s (columbine.freshnet.se) execution I posted about last week, I may as well give it an outing myself. I think it’s ok to be a SWF if you live in opposite hemispheres. I really felt good today. Thanks Columbine. My version features a mix of Zara (jacket, jeans and scarf), Tsubi […]

Uli talks belts
posted by lifeaswewearit
Another day at the doctors with sick offspring. No point getting dressed up. Jeans on a budget is tricky but it’s amazing what you can get away with if the belt is nice. Somehow it’s easier to pull off cheap jeans with a good belt than the other way around. These jeans are cheapies from […]
New Life Wanted

Why can’t I have a life where I can get dressed up like this? (I’m not sure how I credit this photo, apologies)
Plaid

Every since I fell in love with the Bay City Rollers circa 1975 I’ve had a soft spot for tartan. Which is good this year, because there’s a lot going round and I am a bit of it for myself. Take this shirt from Zara. Love the unexpected draping with the workman like feel […]
This week’s shopping
posted by lifeaswewearit
So I headed to Tuchuzy yesterday to exchange a white rain coat that I’d bought with big ideas. Too big for me at second thought, and the type of sartorial style-statement better made by someone in their second or third decade and most likely spending more than one family lunch a week in a suburb […]
Net-a-Poorer
posted by lifeaswewearit
Wow, I’m freaking out a little when I see what I’ve bought but at the same time, it’s not as much as I thought. And I’ve loved wearing most of them – with the exception of the Nancy Ganz. Hate them! So from top to bottom, left to right again. Top: Isabel Marant earrings; Isabel […]
In the closet

Unfortunately, the quality of the screen grab isn’t great for this – but I thought it would be fun to show you my record of purchases for TheOutnet.com for the last 12 months. (I’ve done the same for net-a-porter and will post next). From top and left to right, here goes: Top Line:Twenty8Twelve harem jeans; […]
Hello DHL!
posted by lifeaswewearit
I really wanted a cross body bag that a. wasn’t black and b. was more practical than the dinky, but ‘hopeless if you do anything more than attend an opening Chanel’ I bought a couple of months back. And then this popped up last week and it had my name on it. And best […]
Uli Wants
posted by lifeaswewearit
Uli says she wants these to take to Sweden – although she prefers the silver and camel version which are sold out. I totally get it. They will look as good with a jean, pant or dress (although I wouldn’t go there with shorts or a longer length skirt/dress) and with a heel that is […]
Hot and Cold
posted by lifeaswewearit
Hard to dress at moment. From winter to spring to winter again, all in one day. I continue the homage to the jean and scarf. Sorry if I’m getting boring. All old stuff from my wardrobe. Isabel Marant Wool Jacket from 2011; Current/Elliot jeans from about 4 years ago, same with Chloe boots. Zara shirt […]
