A Stylist Reveals The Trends & Brands She Loves
*The Summer Accessory*
I’ve been wearing this beaded necklace from Reluxe's Relove x Milne Watson collection on repeat. I love how you can layer it with your everyday chains to make your look feel instantly right for summer.
*The Resort Dress*
Knitted dresses are so chic – I have a fringed number from Dissh that I’m taking on my next trip. I plan on wearing it with some tan sandals from The Row.
*The Holiday Evening Look*
I wear this shirt from Asceno a lot – in fact, I’m already onto my second one. I’ve been looking for a crochet maxi skirt to go with it with for ages, so I am glad I’ve finally found this one. These sandals are comfy but cool – I've already popped them in my suitcase ready for my next holiday.
*The Summer Sandals*
Ancient Greek does the best sandals and I’m loving this pair from the Lucy Williams collab. They have a bit of a platform, which looks super flattering with shorter hemlines.
*The Beach Bag*
My go-to bag right now is this Sézane basket style. It has seriously strong handles and a couple of handy pockets. I always get compliments with this one.
*The Colour*
I fell in love with these red retro track pants by The Upside and have worn them non-stop. They’ve made me want to introduce more colour to my wardrobe.
*The Trend*
Crochet is a no-brainer for summer, and I’ve slowly been accumulating quite the collection since working with Free People a few years ago. Check out Akoia and All That Remains for great crochet pieces.
*The Swim Brand*
The Eres Aquarelle swimsuit in black is so flattering. I wore it before I was pregnant, then throughout my pregnancy and it’s still going strong. It has great support if you have a fuller bust but don’t want to wear underwired styles. Matteau’s 90s one-piece is another favourite – I have it in black and in white.
*The Eventwear*
NET-A-PORTER has become my failsafe shopping site, especially since moving to Sydney. I love the wide selection of brands and price points – plus, the customer service is great. I have a long wish list going right now, so If I get invited somewhere and don’t have anything to wear, I know I can go straight there and see what I’ve added in the past to get some ideas and inspiration.

*The Beach Cover-Up*
ARKET’s beach towels make the best sarongs, and they’re very reasonably priced. I’ve just bought three for our next trip – I’m planning on wearing them as tops and skirts when they aren’t being used on the beach.
*The Sunglasses*
Free People’s cat-eye sunglasses are the best Celine dupe. I was also a die-hard Dylan by Epokhe fan before I discovered Free People’s Phoebe.
*The Summer Jewellery Brand*
Kirstie Le Marque is great for summer jewellery. I love all its pieces – especially the beaded anklets and the Brilliant Sun pendant, which is perfect for layering.
