manspiration :: tommy hilfiger.

We haven’t handed one to the men for a while - and that just seems unfair. Tommy Hilfiger has delivered the goods this latest season. So Americana, but so wearable. Filled with patterns of the floral and striped variety, collars, drawstrings, and a good old 80’s spirit ( say yes to the bright primary coloured…

the sustainers :: rbcca kstr.

Depressing realisation of the past week - the only clothes I will be buying, for the rest of the year, are hiking clothes. Yep, some sexy fleeces and zip-off pants, merino sleeves and thermal-wear, which also happen to be a very expensive genre of clothing to buy ( including that cost-per-wear factor ). I had…

find your dream :: amelia diamond.

I am constantly inspired by the millions of women I read about everyday - how they got where they are today, where they’ve come from, what inspires them. It seemed only right that I start a new little section on the blog, dedicated to those who inspire my future dreams and get my brain working.…

anatomy of :: the winter coat.

One of the only things I love about winter is the coats ( and, consequently, the layering required ). I have some in-built attraction to them, where it is impossible to love too many similar-looking grey coats. I would happily seat them all in my wardrobe and rotate their wear on a weekly basis. Trying…

the age of teen.

Teenagers are like another species to me now. They aren’t the kind we were. The other day I spotted a group of little teen girls ( who were probably taller than me in reality ), venturing into the city on their exciting school holiday shopping adventure. All 3 in a row wearing their Doc Martens and…

reliving :: giambattista valli couture.

Recently I’ve started a new ritual. It’s called “old lady hannah” - slightly worrying that it’s already come to this at the age of 24. Basically, I sleep, nodding off at a reasonable time to get up at a ridiculous time. I actually get my 7 hours in which is a close miracle considering my…

the sustainers :: thursday, sunday.

When you are waiting for life to kick into gear but it just doesn't seem to want to happen. Emotions. Everything is going at different paces right now - my mind running with one million things a second, looking for every new opportunity to pounce on, but life? Well she has other plans it seems,…

the google of life.

Now that I'm in a job that doesn't occupy my mind non-stop, at least 8 hours every day ( not including the work-related nightmares / dreams ), I actually have time for Google. We’ve become best buddies. This is a somewhat dangerous thing, and hopefully only occurs when you are in an office with minimal…

all your winter needs.

I have a growing list of half-started blog posts that are begging my attention and some love. By the end of July my goal is to have all these completed for your lovely eyes, and my over-active brain. Some peace to allow room for more bits and pieces that are rattling around in there. For…

musings :: micaela verrelien.

I've been introduced to some really cool girls via Instagram and the general social-sphere, particularly those of the uniquely styled, big personality sort. They are the true style queens, flaunting all they’ve got and proudly piecing together outfits with attitude. One of these is Micaela Verrelien. Any girl who can rock an American flag one-piece…
