FANCY PANTS [BLACK + WHITE]


Hello summer! I'm loving the warm sunshine, the fruit bearing on our trees, and warm sun-ripened tomatoes, and salads at every meal.

I'm also loving making the lads icy poles made from juice, fruit and leftover yoghurt, and ice cream sandwiches.




I love colour neutrals in summer, and pops of colour. In fact, usually I am anti-black in summer seeing I live black in winter. It's kind of a Melbourne essential. My husband calls them "Melbourne Blacks".

The pop in this outfit is all about the wedges (close ups on the wedges here). I love them. They go with everything because of their multi-coloured straps, The neutral knapsack was bought at my local op-shop for just $4. It fits pretty much everything, my camera and the kitchen sink, it's so versatile.


This top and skirt (more details about the skirt here) were purchased in Bali eight years ago on a girlie weekend, but I still love them. In fact, this is the first time I've ever worn them together! It just goes to show you can mix and match so much, it's easy to forget the two items you purchased in the same shop so long ago!


Have you ever forgotten to put together an item you purchased for each other?

Thanks so much for stopping by.
