Happy Father's Day lovely people! Hope you're all treating your loved ones today. I'm pretty sure my mind was somewhere close to where Jess' usually is when I picked this outfit. This is the first time since school that I've worn, or even owned, at pair of sheer black tights. As it gets warmer and I still ache for non-pant leg coverings I am slowly warming to them.

Hi lovelies! In the recent batch of cold weather I have been adapting the philosophy that if my top half is warm, then my legs will survive. Although I was wearing stockings here I must admit.

This outfit is full of new things that I've picked up recently. I finally took the dive and bought myself new high-waisted black skinny jeans. I tried many different styles on in General Pants a month or two ago and decided that Arlene by Dr Denim was definitely the pair for me. I got these in a 28 which is quite snug around the waist but the room in the legs makes me sure that they will stretch. I wore them for the first time today and could not be more impressed. They were comfortably all day and are yet to make my hands or legs black... even with prior warning that they could. If you're in the market for some new high-waisted jeans and don't mind the $130 price tag, totally do it. I'll keep you updated on their fading/stretching process.

Hi lovelies! I took these photos after a delicious lunch with Erin at Shady Palms Cafe in Stones Corner. The food there is delicious, although I must admit their breakfast menu blows their lunch menu out of the water. Maple syrup glazed bacon? Yes please!

I am never happier than when I can wear an entire outfit of second hand clothing. Being able to remember the exact moment of stumbling across the perfect item in a pile of rejected goods is great feeling.

Happy days are upon us. Winter is slowly emerging of a never ending summer and I have finally found my most lusted after wardrobe staple; a denim jacket! I don't think I have been as ecstatic about a clothing purchase since I bought my first pair of high waisted jeans or Dr. Martens. I found this beauty in my local thrift store for $6 which makes the experience even better. This find makes me so glad that I waited instead of forking out the $50+ price that a lot of vintage resellers have on their denim jackets. Is is super good quality and I hope it will be in my possession for eternity.

Hi lovelies! Erin and I had a great day hiding from the heat in air conditioning on Sunday. We took some time to brave the heat and take some photos on the way home. I'm hoping you don't get sick of my simple summer dressing. It just gets way too hot in Brisbane to even contemplate layering.

Hi lovelies! So the hot weather has well and truly arrived in Brisbane. I wore this outfit recently as it still gets a little chilly at night. I will miss wearing tights during the day but I am loving sitting in the botanical gardens writing this post in the sunshine.
