Experience has taught me that the best way to navigate the Black Friday and Cyber Week sales is to have a strategy. So every year, without fail, I put together a wishlist of sorts. Items I’d like to add to my wardrobe (ideally, on sale). Gifts for loved ones. Home decor that needs refreshing. It’s a list I’ll build up over six months, with the aim of ticking off a few key pieces, with the rest being “nice-to-haves”. If you haven’t already bookmarked it, my Black Friday/Cyber Monday cheat sheet is here, and will be updated every day with new…
The Black Friday & Cyber Week sales seem to be starting earlier and earlier every year, with many of my favourite retailers already offering sitewide discounts. You already know the drill, think of this as your Black Friday bible where you can find all the best deals across fashion/accessories, beauty, home, fitness that are currently active. A good opportunity to either get a head start on your Christmas shopping, add a splurge worthy piece to your wardrobe (at a discount!), or just treat yourself to something special.

I have a sneaking suspicion that the longline vest is going to be one of the biggest trends for the season – either in a cotton/linen fabrication, or a suiting fabric.

A fun way to play with proportions, and easily winterised if you opt for one in a more robust, flat fabric and add a slim knit underneath. Whether you plan to jump on board…
At this point you could almost joke that my favourite pastime is tracking down affordable alternatives for the season’s most wanted designer shoes. I actually shared a rather extensive round up recently on my YouTube channel (you can watch here!). Two of these styles made their way into my basket, and I wanted to share them with you as they both feel pretty timeless. Despite having serious champagne taste on a beer budget in my early twenties, these days I’m much more inclined to think about how I can emulate a mood or a feeling. Seeking out more budget-friendly alternatives…
It might currently be 27 deg C here in Sydney, but that hasn’t stopped me from poring over the new Sezane Winter collection lookbook. Again, just like their Pre-Fall collection, they’ve knocked it out of the park. So once again I’m doing a little virtual window shop (and maybe doing a little pre-planning for my 2024 A/W wardrobe…). Here are the five best pieces to add to cart, and why. Sezane Winter Collection 2023 – Best Pieces!
