i can't resist.

I've been trying. I have some fine rings I now wear daily. But give me a good chunky ring and I'll be yours forever.

i clutch myself.

Today I was on a mission, a mission to find an acid bright oversized clutch bag. I braved the Sunday world, recapped royal wedding moments with a copy of Grazia and my favourite bircher muesli and then made my way into the new Sydney city ZARA store. I only had to line up for a few moments before the security door men waved me through into the fashion frenzy. Women were running everywhere, trying things on and then casting them aside. Through the madness I spotted the perfect bag. Alone on a top shelf, I pushed purposefully through the crowd before someone else snatched it up. It was bright orange, a large soft rectangle, with a detachable chain. Just what I was looking for. I made a beeline for the cash register- I needed to get out, it was frantic. But alas, the cashier line was 50 people deep. I loved the bag, but not enough to wait for an hour. So I placed it back up on it's lonely shelf and left. But now I've been thinking about it all afternoon. I think I'll have to stop in early tomorrow morning before the shows start and give it a loving home.

sweat it out.

Photographed by Adrian Mesko and styled by Mark Vassallo, the Grazia Australia team hit a winner with their berry tone basics winter shoot. Although grey unlike the rest of the shoot, this sweater just looks too snuggly to resist!

dion lee for cue.

I styled this hot pink Dion Lee for Cue blazer at work yesterday and I have to say, it is simply devine. Beautifully made, with nice fabric and stitch detailing, it has made it's way to the top of my most wanted list.

warm up top.

After a day of shooting jackets and sweaters at work yesterday, I'm all inspired to purchase my winter woollies. Lusting after these knits and jackets at Net-a-Porter.

colour me happy.

Don't get me wrong, I like colour. But I don't usually wear it. Except maybe turquoise blue. Otherwise my wardrobe seems to be strictly neutral. Tommy Ton's shots of Proenza Schouler's new collection are making me rethink this. Need some earthy tones stat.

easy.

I love Lover. And I love this easy slouched look from their latest collection. I styled the skirt at work yesterday in the Lilac colour, it's absolutely beautiful. Soft to touch, long and lose.

to the max.

Long lengths, pleats and a semi sheer fabric. Could this skirt be any more perfect?

pleats please.

How is it I want everything this girl is wearing? Especially the jumper. It just looks so snuggly and warm.

By far the best Australian example of digital prints. I want this Dion Lee number.

mania mania.

Ever since their first collection I've been in love with Australian jewellery label Mania Mania's eclectic and raw designs. Online boutique mycatwalk have the new collection pieces on pre-order and I can't seem to choose just one.

I've long been a fan of Australian label Stylestalker, their friendly team helping me out with product loans on many occasions. It seems over the last few seasons they've really stepped up their marketing through the use of inspired imagery and video. This is a look at their new collection 'The Beautiful and The Damned'...You'll spot my new 'want' item- their shearling collared leather jacket. I saw it in a department store today and it is DIVINE.

want.

As a bit of a ring fan, I've got my eye on the Sass and Bide 'The Lost Innocence' rings. The only problem? Which colour...
