where the science and art of style collide
I catch up with your blog every day or so and have learnt so much. This item about the capsule wardrobe is fantastic, could you please please please do a similar one for a summer capsule wardrobe. I think I have the basics of the winter wardrobe together but I struggle with my summer wardrobe. [...]
I just discovered your website, and I love the photos of your wardrobe capsules. I’ll be moving from an equatorial, tropical climate (think hot and humid) to the cold dark north of Finland. I will essentially have to buy a new wardrobe from scratch, which seems scary (I hate shopping) and exciting (I get to [...]
I was lucky enough to score an invite from Gem Marketing to The Birdcage at the 2012 Melbourne Cup. I didn’t have a huge amount of time to prepare, but I managed to make a new fascinator to wear and turn a scarf into a wrap to cover my shoulders and upper arms. I also [...]
I love your blog . My biggest question is proper footwear for the cold fall weather (but before it snows). I live in the Midwest of USA. I am wondering if you could do a blog post for casual ladies who like slim fit jeans and shorter boots. I like tall boots on other people, don’t feel [...]

I love sheer/see-through blouses/shirts, as they are very elegant, but what should I wear underneath to not lose from that elegance (and colour) but to tone down the sexiness/edginess of the outfit? Susie Sheer or see-through blouses are gorgeous, but to avoid looking too sexy, particularly in the workplace, it’s advisable to wear the right [...]
Casual Dress Codes by imogenl featuring leather boots My question is how much can I differ from the dress culture at my office? February is the coldest month where I live. I’ve been thinking of wearing my jacket at work as a extra. The thing is, is that very few women who work in my [...]
Question regarding DRESSING UP/DOWN: I have many cardigans – cotton, colourful, not v structured, they are pretty but casual.
