Sharing some accessories that I am loving lately. I would say that my style is towards classic, but I love adding some fun and trendy elements to make the outfit look more modern and younger. This season I am totally sold on the strappy sandal look and the cat eye sunnies. It is still winter in Australia and I couldn’t wait and ordered my first pair of sandals from the new season. They are by Dorateymur which is a very popular IT shoe designer brand from Korea. The style is so chic and the chunky heels make the pair easier to wear. I bought them in my normal size and they feel a bit tight when my feet get swollen in the heat. So I would suggest you go at least half a size up for this style if you plan to wear them in the summer.
Tee – Gucci (bought here)
Jeans – Agolde (bought here)
Shoes – Dorateymur (bought here)
Sunglasses – Bvlgari Serpenti
Bag- Hermes Birkin 25
My second obsession is the narrow cat eye sunglasses. I recently just got my second pair and this particular model from Le Specs The Last Lolita tends to sell out everywhere. I have been wearing the over-sized sunnies for many years, so it does take some courage to transition to the narrow eye look. The same transition experience you would have from ditching your skinny jeans to mommy jeans. Once you find the right pair, they add a totally different vibe to the outfit and gives you a more up-to-date look.
Sunglasses – Le Specs ( bought here)
Sweater – Acne Studios (currently on sale here, also available here)
My other pair Pared Eyewear Petit Amour is from an Australian label which I absolutely adore and they go well with every outfit. It still has the slim look with a more rectangle cat eye shape, so between the two pairs, I would say the Petit Armour is easier and more flattering to wear on most face shapes.

Top – Topshop (bought here and it is super affordable!)

Sharing a couple of things that I bought lately. One of the most exciting purchases this month had to be my two pairs of new boots. They are both sock boots which is the style I am obsessed with. The black pair is from Nicholas Kirkwood and I bought them on sale at 50% of here! I love them so much as they are super comfy. The style is cute but chic and his signature pearl heel just makes the boots more special. I’ve been on a hunt for a pair of white leather stretch boots for so long and I finally found a great pair from Barneys New York. This is my first purchase from Barney’s own brand and I am very impressed with their quality and styles. They are made in Italy and look and feel expensive just like designer shoes, it also comes in other colors such black, patent black and red.

The rest is all the new makeup that I bought lately. I am much more selective with makeup these days and I only buy the ones that are very special and stand out to me.
La Prairie Skin Caviar Essence-In Foundation – Big fan of cushion foundation so I cannot resist the new cushion-like foundation from La Prairie.
Tom Ford Shadow Extreme -I was lucky enough to pick up one of their most popular colors TFX5 Garnet Red (bought mine here), as it was literally all sold out everywhere. The color is right on point and is just as amazing as I have seen online. Highly recommend it if you can still find it!
Last but not least, my lovely Chanel SA has reserved these limited-edition Chanel No5 L’EAU Hand Creme and All Over Spray for me. They are great sizes for carrying around in a purse and the design in a frosted matte finish is just too good to pass.

Spring is around the corner for most places and I am enjoying to see all the new spring looks coming out in the stores. I recently added this incredibly pretty floral dress by Ulla Johnson (obsessed with her entire collection for this season!). The color is on point as apparently lavender is the color of the year for 2018! It is a delicate silk chiffon dress that just flows on the body and makes you feel so romantic and pretty. I just found out that it is currently on special on Shopbop with their big promotions (save up to 25% on all orders with code EVENT18). I am wearing it with heels for now – when the weather gets cooler I would totally flaunt this dress with boots and leather jacket for a more edgy look.

Just sharing a simple all black outfit that I adore lately. The satin oversized black top is from the latest Uniqlo U collection which is the most exciting collection that I anticipate every year. Everything is affordable, super chic and good quality. I bought so many pieces from the collection this year and they tend to sell out really fast. The pants are from ALC – it’s their most classic and iconic pants such that every time I wear them out, I have girls stopping me on the street to ask where I got them from! I bought it on Shopbop which is currently on sale with up to 25% off with code GOBIG18! The black mules with satin bows are from The Row. This is my first pair of shoes from the brand and I can sense there is a new brand addition coming up!

I am always on the lookout for the most beautiful versatile white dresses! My Zimmerman dress that I bought earlier this year has earned a lot of compliments and I get many wears out of it. The Ulla Johnson Dress (currently on sale on Shopbop!) is my recent addition – it is made of cotton so it is great for both casual and evening wear and it gives a relaxing and effortless vibe to it. The ruffled collar and the balloon sleeves are very on trend, and instantly gives an updated modern silhouette. Pairing it with my go-to Schutz Cadey Lee Sandals which are budget-friendly, and a pair of Oscar de la Renta earrings.
Dress – Ulla Johnson
Sandals – Schutz
Earrings – Oscar de la Renta
