Minimal.

Olivia's wearing: Zimmermann striped t-shirt, White Suede leather running shorts, Proenza Schouler PS11 mini, Tiffany and Co necklace, Karen Walker rings, Michael Kors watch, Jeffrey Campbell 'Everly' boots.

This outfit is the perfect combination of basic investment pieces that I've accumulated recently, as there were so many must-haves that my wardrobe was missing. I had been searching high and low for the perfect striped t-shirt and ended the search when I found this one from Zimmermann. I love it's boxy, boyfriend fit and the fabric is super soft and lightweight. Authentic leather shorts have been on my wish list for what feels like a century, they're perfect for the Gold Coast climate and they can be worn with anything. These White Suede leather running shorts are made from the most amazing leather that feels like butter and they're a great fit as they're not too tailored. When you pair these two with my favourite boots and the best bag ever invented, you have my ideal outfit. 

PS11.

Proenza Schouler PS11 Mini

We don't think we really need to go into much detail as to how these beauties came into our possession, it's pretty self-explanatory. We'd had our eye on them for months and discussed whether or not they'd be a worthy investment - as we do with all expensive purchases. Of course we came to the conclusion that you can't go wrong with this bag. Although most people opt for the larger size, we decided to both get the mini as we prefer smaller bags and felt that this size would definitely fit all of our daily essentials. If you're currently on the fence and can't decide whether to take the plunge or not, the answer is yes, yes you should. 

Heliconia.

Kate's wearing: American Vintage singlet, Maurie and Eve 'Heliconia' mesh peplum skirt, Sportsgirl heels, Michael Kors watch,
 Hermes bracelet, Mania Mania skull ring.

We love supporting Australian labels, especially when it feels like our wardrobes consist of so many pieces from foreign designers. Maurie and Eve is one of our favourite Australian brands, but for some reason we didn't own anything from their collections, until now. We love the structure of the skirt with the mesh peplum, as it's a fresh take on the overdone trend and the bold print is one of the best we've seen from their summer collection. Considering it was 70 percent off, you'd be silly to say no. 

Balance.

Olivia's wearing: Zimmermann 'Balance Bouquet' dress, Michael Kors watch, Senso 'Xenia' heels, American Apparel nail polish.

This is the outfit that I put together to wear to my graduation ceremony a few weeks ago, where I received a Bachelor of Journalism, in case anyone was curious. I wasn't really sure what I wanted to wear for the event, as I'm someone who usually always buys more casual clothes as I'm not really into dressing up and partying. I liked this Zimmermann dress as soon as I saw it, as not only am I a huge fan of the brand, but I loved it's youthful feel and the fact that it's not too dressy. We both love the floral prints that Zimmermann incorporates into their collections, they're always different to others that you see and they're never tacky, which can often be a problem with florals. 

Heels are something that you won't see on this blog very often, we're definitely more fond of boots and flats, rather than any shoes with height. These Senso 'Xenia' heels are the first pair of higher shoes that I've liked in a long time - I love the simple, timeless style of them and the nougat colour, as it compliments any skin tone.
