{Stay on Top}


My love affair with polka dots continues with this playful polka dot dress from Topshop.  On the topic of Topshop... we Sydneysiders finally got our very first Topshop store! I must admit that I only have a few Topshop items and this dress by far is my favourite. The blue and white combination is so classic and easy to work with. I remember how I instantly gravitated towards it instore when I was in London earlier in the year and it has been a wardrobe staple ever since! (Note: now that I'm looking at the hemline in these photos, I think it might have shrunk a bit in the wash...sadface).

I am sorry I haven't posted in a week! I'm trying to stay on top of everything - uni (end of semester assessments are looming), new job (it's like learning a new language), friends (who give me so many reasons to smile) and everything in between!

Have a fantastic weekend everyone - I am definitely gonna make the most of this sunny and calmer weather in Sydney!

Have you bought anything from Topshop?

{Being Flippy}

{Being Flippy} Tweed and polka dot

I love the playfulness of polka dots and could not resist the bold black dots on this skirt (and only for $20 as well). Pairing it with a tweed jacket (my first one!) really adds a touch of elegance to the outfit. I bought this jacket after reading reviews from extra petite. The colour and cropped cut of this jacket makes it so versatile and perfect for my petite frame - can't wait to pair it with other things from my wardrobe. I am also loving coral at the moment, and think the wedges and necklace are a great way to add pops of colour to an outfit.
