Friday Wrap Up.
And it’s nearly a wrap for that last Friday afternoon at work before next week’s leave. A bit of archival silver T&Co to go with my Ralph Lauren navy cricket cardigan. The casual Friday outfit was worn, the numerous loose ends tied and that out of office email has gone live. I’ve had my last…

Blue was definitely today’s colour. www.danielsprint.com The happier spectrum of blues, that is. The skies over North Sydney were a perfect Pantone 292U (by my eye) this afternoon as I drove down Berry Street to finally get my tax return done. It’s so leafy and peaceful here I sort of had workplace envy of…

The Loveliness of Boden.
It all started on a Friday night, as many a good virtual shopping basket often does. With spring finally in the air and a long week behind me the scene was set for a bit of a wardrobe update for the new season. For inspiration, I had my mood board / necklace stand decked out…
