Bassike Spring 16 Collection

Bassike Spring Collection

If there’s one label that has always had a place in my closet it’s Bassike. I can still remember my very first purchase all those years ago. Consisting of organic jersey tees and long sleeved tops in grey marle and black. All so lovingly lived-in that I ending up wearing them to bed as my winter pyjamas. Almost eight years on and I’m still captivated by the concept of easy, breezy and beautiful basics. Simple pieces that are as equally as perfect to wear when your lazying around at home or if you’re going to relaxed lunch on a Sunday afternoon.

I recently added a few more basics to my Bassike collection. All with my upcoming trip overseas in mind; Including a pair of Slouch Jersey Pants and an Oversize Curve Hem Sweat. Both in black of course! They’ll prove to be indispensable layering pieces over the next few months, as well as comfortable and chic 14 hour plane attire too. The new Bassike spring collection launched today and there is no denying how beautiful it is. I’m certain that Bassike pile of mine will be growing a little taller in the near future. To see their new collection as well as their core pieces click here.

There’s something so fresh, brand new, promising and hopeful about Mondays. Especially when I consider the exciting week ahead; My time frantically divided between agency meetings, campaign photo shoots, a spring summer launch, a new store opening and finally a luncheon for the Bledisloe Cup Festival Race Day at Royal Randwick Race Course this weekend.

There is of course the stunning new Keepsake The Label Alchemy collection (above) lifting my spirits as well. A range which combines current trends and classic shapes. Featuring feminine pleating, sheer draping and geometric lace. And created in my favourite colours, including black, navy, fig and khaki. There’s the perfect mix of pretty dresses, free flowing skirts, long sleeved tops and gorgeous coats that are suitable for day or night.

The Reflections Dress in French Navy (first picture above) is at the top of my shortlist for the Randwick Races this weekend. My other favourite pieces from the collection; The Come Back Mini Dress in Fig . Clarity Pleated Skirt in Fig . Slow Motion Playsuit in Navy and the Clarity Maxi Dress in a pleated stripe. To shop the entire Keepsake The Label Alchemy collection at the Fashion Bunker click here.

Although I have so many beautiful things to share with you, I’ve realised it’s been almost a week since my last post! During the day I’ve been busy at work and then of an evening and this weekend I’ve just been laying low. Bunkered down with holiday planning and preparations for my trip overseas in September. I’ve also been busy compiling my packing list. One which already includes a handful pieces from the beautiful new Acler spring summer collection above. A line which focuses on the beauty of fabric, texture and colour, with the perfect combination of dresses and separates for any capsule wardrobe or summer vacation.

When it comes to holiday dressing, the first thing that goes into my suitcase is a dress that gets my heart racing. One which can be worn effortlessly during the day with a pair of flats and then of an evening dressed up with heels for dinner and drinks. The Foley Dress (in the very first image above) is that dress for me. And I’m certain I won’t be going anywhere without it come spring. Other pieces from the collection that no girl should be without; The Foley Silk Top paired with the Arkley Shorts in Black. As well as the Earl Dress in White, The Earl Cami in Golden Olive and the Hurley Skirt in Navy.  If you prefer to try before you buy visit your nearest Myer store or to shop the current Acler spring summer collection click here.

My weekends are typically quiet and sometimes punctuated by a spot of online shopping, catch-ups with girlfriends or a little me-time having a mani-pedi or a massage. However after spending my entire Saturday in bed, I woke up bright and early on Sunday with a fairly extensive to-do list and the motivation to cross off as many items as possible.

First, I went to brunch at my new favourite cafe, Ruby’s Diner in Clovelly. Followed by a trip to Westfield Bondi Junction where I spent an hour or so correcting my recent impulse, trend-driven and misguided purchases from Witchery and Seed. I also paid a visit to COS. I have become quite the fan of this international chain-store since they set up shop here in Australia. Who are best known for their clean lines, relaxed shapes and neutral shades.

I ended my day at The Intersection in Paddington, which would have to be my favourite shopping precinct in Sydney. Writing a to-do list ensures that I only go to the shops I need to, and browsing online beforehand ensures I already have in mind what I’m after and don’t take too long to make decisions in-store. So I already knew that I would only be visiting a handful of stores at most.

I’ve been after a new fragrance for a little while now. Looking for something which would evoke spring time memories and summer feels even on the coldest of winter days. So I popped into Mecca where I spent an hour or so selecting a beautiful new fragrance, as well as some new candles for my home (more about that later).

My last stop for the day before returning home exhausted, was the Viktoria and Woods boutique. I have been admiring their new Halycon Spring collection (pictured above) since it launched a few weeks ago and couldn’t wait to see it up close. The range, which hinges of on the concepts of intelligent layering, ultra-luxe textures and subtly striking details, is one of their best to date.

The items on my shopping list; The Blessing Full Sleeve Crew in Grey Marle . Academy Trench in Black . Rival Skinny Denim Jeans . Drake Harem Pant in Black and a pair of white Lacoste Sneakers which I intend to wear with everything! To view the new Viktoria and Woods Halycon Spring Collection and shop for yourself, click here.
