I'm wearing: Shoploueymarks Vintage Newsboy Cap / American Apparel Track Tee / Bardot Stripe Slouch Long-sleeve Top / Cotton On Denim Shorts / Wittner 'Chico' Sandals / McQ by Alexander McQueen Embossed Leather Tote

There was a huge moment of relief when I realised I managed to get three days off work! Amidst all the craze and the bustle of Boxing Day and Stocktake Sales here in Sydney, all I want to is to crawl in the cave of my bedsheets for the next 72 hours. But alas, due to spending most of my December working in retail's craziest period ever - there has been some neglect in other aspects of my life, in particular the mess waiting for me at home and a trip to Edith in the next two days…

My bare white walls, albeit a little uneven in a few parts (that's rushed DIY renovations for ya), are in desperate need of a cluster of magazine clippings, printed quotes and polaroid pictures to make it a bit more home-y. But interior decorations will come together all in due time! Today is all about running errands and I'm pretty much channelling the whole 'throw something over your head and go go go' mantra. The combination of stripes and denim are a instinctual off-duty uniform for many girls, and I can concur with the comfort level being off the charts. Sandals are also an immediate go-to in opposing the closed-in shoes rule for work, letting my lilac toes breathe for a bit in open air. This newsboy cap hides a bit of bed hair and is my small attempt in pulling it off as well as Lara Bingle did with hers last Summer. But more importantly - have you seen this bag?! An incredibly luxe McQ by Alexander McQueen black leather Christmas present from Mum, and is already set to get a lot of wear from here on out.

I hope you guys are resting up on holidays. I'm so jelly.
