it's all in the jeans

I am fussy. Really fussy when it comes to jeans. Hence, I own two pairs.

I asked some of you on Twitter and Facebook for some style advice as to the best designer jeans out there for me to purchase. I don't want jeans with rips, holes, tie dye, rather, just classic dark blue denim, which hug the body in all of the right places. I do prefer flare and bootcut, but I also like straight legged jeans. I've been told Seven For All Mankind jeans and J Brand (thanks Phoebes and Calvin x) were worth checking out, so here's some of my favourite styles .






 







It's looking like my preference is leaning more towards 7 For All Mankind at this stage. I'd love you to help me in my quest for finding the perfect pair of jeans. I'll be saving up for a pair and will probably start looking next month! All of your suggestions are most welcome. Please leave a comment with a link to any websites or blog posts related to purchasing designer jeans. Thanks guys! 

I hope you're all having an enjoyable week. I finalised my student reports and it feels great knowing they are completed. Next week is the last week before school holidays. I'm hanging out for a break! 

Yours in style,


Suzi x

    I'm pretty partial to 7 for All Mankind, as I own a pair that is so comfortable that I take naps in them! (I'm also wearing them right now as I type this - the Roxanne skinnies). I love the first pair of high-waist flares that you posted.

    I have heard really good things about J Brand too, but I don't have any personal experience with them!

    cheers,

gelati in the gardens

I was joking with my better half about the outfit I chose to wear to our special family reunion. We needed to travel into the city to the Fitzroy Gardens, and on our journey, we kept eachother entertained by thinking of gelati flavours which matched my oufit. In the end we decided upon raspberry, strawberry, vanilla & mango! The morning was quite fresh, so I decided to wear a layer of silk/cashmere over my silk chiffon shirt. This magical blend always comes through when I'm in need of extra warmth and comfort. This ensemble was the perfect match for my raspberry coloured skirt!  For a picnic, flats seemed like the perfect choice, because of their practicality. So I decided to bring a touch of mango to the gelati mix! These mustard coloured, patent leather ballet flats, are so chic and comfortable. They are one of my favourite pairs of Repetto ballet flats, purchased from the fabulous Alice & Deb at Treasurette. Check out ...

Olga De Polga

Melbourne based designer Olga de Polga  is renowned for their use of colour and vibrant patterns. I really enjoy adding a pop of colour when I style outfits, so if you love colour, you are bound to find something fabulous. On my recent visit, I picked up two pairs of Lillian pants, a new style to ODP, in both pink and caramel. These colours go so well with other pieces in my wardrobe. Style tip: I will not add anything to my wardrobe if it doesn't go with other pieces, so I am very particular when choosing a new piece to add to my collection. The cords fit really well, sitting at mid-waist and fall at the perfect length. The corduroy fabric is soft and feels so cosy, so perfect for Winter here in Melbourne!  Have you visited Olga de Polga? If so, what are your favourite pieces? If you haven't been in store yet, make sure you do so soon, because some styles are selling out really fast. Have a great rest of the week! Yours in style, Suzi x  What I'm Wearing ODP Lillian pan...

CHANEL Fall/Winter Haute Couture 2023/24

The CHANEL Fall/Winter Haute Couture 2023/24 was streamed live on Instagram this evening. The show took place along the banks of the Seine, beneath the famous Eiffel Tower. Striking combinations of colours were seen, along with ruffles, bow details on dresses and pattern clashing.  The looks were heavy on embellishments with the Houses' flower, the Camellia, along with hydrangeas and daisies, in a multicoloured kaleidoscope of colours. Twisted rope-like belts adorned models' waistlines and signature gold buttons adorned blazers. Surprising colour combinations were seen, such as red, black and charcoal, as well as orange, pink and gold.  My favourite from the collection was indeed the last look, as it reminded me of a modern take on the bridal gown Audrey Hepburn wore in the movie, 'Funny Face'.  The gown was simple, with a bow detail at the collar, longer sleeves and a shorter, fuller skirt, worn with a short veil. A perfect final look to the beautiful CHANEL haute cou...
