Happy New Year

Happy New Year!  I trust you have had a safe and enjoyable New Year and that 2014 will be a year full of blessing and joy.. and great style.

top ; katies
pants : classic pant slim leg / katies
shoes : vintage
accessories : pearl drops & satin cuff wtih silver and pearl clasp
bag ; myer


I wore this outfit on Christmas Eve to my church's Carols Service.  The top has a lovely drape and flow and is very comfortable and cool to wear.  The white is such a fresh crisp tone and works very nicely with my black pieces.  The top was available in 3 colours and black was not one of them *sad face*... I would have been all over this top in black.



The top makes what I consider to be a 'subtle' statement so I kept everything else to a minimum.  A simple silver and pearl drop earring, black cuff and vintage sandals with a great stacked heel.  A silver and black clutch finished the outfit.



I promised to show you some Christmas goodies and here they are!

The bag was a gift from my sister.  It's by Things Terrific which is an Australian family owned company.  I only recently discovered them and am very impressed with the lovely soft leather and quality of this bag.



And these sandals were a gift from my husband.  I had fallen in love with the LD Tuttle 'The Watch' Sandal and spent some months trying to find something similar here in Australia.  The end result were these Django & Juliette sandals which I am so pleased with.  Again gorgeous soft leather and seriously comfortable footwear.


If you have read this far, here is a teaser for my next post!  Having thought about it for 12 months, I woke up New Years Day and decided to have my hair cut short.  Method or madness?  We shall see.

  5. Oh I can't wait to see the new hair! I'm so into short hair and I've always loved yours. I've been thinking about a pixie myself. I've done it before and I'm feeling it too!

  6. It only published half my comment so here's the rest.

    This is a beautiful clean and classic outfit. I love the stylish bag and shoes. These are some great gifts. I enjoy your styling because I can see the shape and draping of the clothes clearly. I think you have a good eye of what you like and what looks great on you!

  12. Yup. Very modern looking. I'm going to watch you warm-weather posts with interest. I often feel bullied into bright color, and often just want to hang in my darks. Good for you. White doesn't count as a bright ... it's just no color and has a similar gestalt as black, I think!
