“Anyone can get dressed up and glamorous but it is how people dress in their days off that are the most intriguing.” – Alexander Wang I’m pretty sure Alexander wasn’t thinking of ‘active wear’, the fashion-scourge of the suburbs, when he said this. Sure, it is easy, fast and comfortable to pull on some lycra, sports […]

The end of trends … today

A Pair and a Spare
posted by lifeaswewearit
Of trends, that is. Continuing with the review I’ll chunk a few together today. Unlike slip dresses, or mules (coming soon), these three feel a little more transient – they may be the fluro to the boyfriend jean, where one burnt bright (literally) and then fizzled, and the other slowly crept into the fashion vernacular and lodged itself.

As much as I loved my white shoe moment earlier in the day, it’s always good getting my feet horizontal. I am no Sarah Jessica Parker/Carrie in the heel department. I am loving my half price on sale, faux-Celine, genuine-Zara skater style shoes. I’m wondering if even a little more than my Givenchy version. Which […]
New hair, Sore Feet
posted by lifeaswewearit
Love my new shoes, until they took the skin off the back of my heels. I’m all for suffering for style in Darlinghurst, but I’m back in the office now. I hope this is one of those situations where my heels get used to the shoe, as I had planned all sorts of everyday outings […]
