Joy, so sad that your denim trench was ruined.
Carla, thank you. I noticed that you had bought some Mother jeans. I am a huge fan, having worn Mother denim for the last 4 years. My first jeans are still in good condition and so soft and comfy, I have worn them on long distance flights and slept in them.
Angie, I am humbled. DH loves the trench too. Thank you for showing your wonderful blue and white polka dot collection, which is beautiful. Love your recent additions and how lovely to have a bag to match your bikini for summer. Tres Chic!
Slim Cat, thank you. I have learnt that for me absolute classics never feel quite right. I like trenches, but prefer a trench with polka dots, it just feels more me to have that added detail.
Liesbeth, thank you for reminding me to wear my pretty trench. It is a more substantial linen, so more spring and autumn appropriate rather than high summer (well in Australia anyway).
Kelly, I plan to take extra care with this bag, given how long it has taken to find one. If only I was a good sewer, then I could make one.
Mirjana, so lovely to hear from you. I liked this outfit, as it felt a bit dressy yet casual enough for the weekend.
Lisa, I know my ability to visit Canada would most likely only be in your summer and then I would be all rugged up as compared to the locals. It is just that in Australia we are so used to the heat that any temp below 20C is cool. The minimum was about 10C, so it was cool enough for a topper. Oh I remember the Chanel denim bags, amazing. The one I missed out on was in Japan, so not as high end as a Chanel, but just that bit too expensive to buy at the time.
Nuanced dream, I really like the denim colours, although I will try the trench with white jeans too as that will be a fun combination.
Xtabay, I am enjoying seeing more polka dots in retail too. They make for a fun and slightly retro look.
Nemosmom, I love the bag too.
Sal, a lightweight coat is good for my climate. I love the look of bigger coats, but the opportunity to wear them is more limited. In NZ, you are lucky as your seasons are more pronounced.
Suntiger, yes please move to Australia. You would fit in perfectly, we get lots of sunshine.
Phoebe, thank you. I do like to keep things light hearted.
Brooklyn, thank you. You have really helped me develop my signature style. I see you and other women on the forum with a style that is authentic to them, and it is so inspiring to just be happy to do my own thing too.
