Jeans.

There’s a lot to be said for a simple, clean outfit with a pair of jeans. While my love of silly accessories (hellooo orange clutch!) may prevent me from pulling off timeless denim looks, like the wonderful Jane Birkin, I certainly can appreciate a nice pair of jeans. Especially as winter continues to make it’s presence known, and my favourite summery dresses no longer seem to be an option – well, not without a pair of warm tights at least!

I did my best job of going minimal and stuck to my basic black-and-whites (doing my best to blend into my surroundings, don’t you think?) I’m pretty darn keen on my new beanie too (complete with detachable pompom!) – as I can’t stand wind blowing into my ears – and it happens a lot when you live in the windiest city in the world, Wellington!

I feel like this year I’ve somehow managed to get my act together in time for winter. I have a new rain coat, rain boots (and they’re duck shaped!), as well as two new winter coats. And now jeans too?! I’m not silly enough to ask winter to ‘bring it on’ but this is definitely the most prepared I’ve ever been! (Don’t take it out on me for saying that, winter!)
