Melrose.

Olivia's wearing: COS t-shirt, Lover shorts, Isabel Marant "Bekket" sneakers, PS11 mini, Tiffany & Co. necklace, Michael Kors watch.

The combination of orange, silk and lace, executed by one of my favourite Australian labels, Lover, is perfection in my mind. I have obsessed over these shorts for months on end, however I was originally going to purchase the black, but when I saw the orange there was no hesitation. The fact that this colour was created exclusively for Net-A-Porter, which means only a small amount of people can get their hands on them, is an added bonus. 

The Isabel Marant Bekket sneakers were another purchase that I had been contemplating for some time. Initially I didn't like the chunky style of them and I was also deterred by the fact that almost every man and his dog have a pair. Eventually the pros outweighed the cons and I gave into temptation when I found them at the Isabel Marant boutique on Melrose (that store has done bad, bad things to our bank accounts). They are probably the most comfortable pair of shoes I own and they can be easily incorporated into just about any outfit that I wear. If only I could find a way to make them work appropriate...
