A Simple White Shirt – Part Six
In my humble opinion, to rock the shirt dress as a shirt dress, the wearer needs a good pair of toned and, preferably, tanned legs. At the end of last spring, I was putting on some extra weight but feeling happy and perhaps, over confident, so I decided to give my Chinatown-found shirt dress a […]
A Simple White Shirt – Part Five
Living in Perth, Western Australia in my late teens, one day, in the public Conversation Room at the language school where I attended my English classes, I met Linda, a lady who was also from Taiwan. We clicked straight away and became very good friends. Between 37 and 18, yes, Linda and I had a […]

Throwback The ’90s – The Oversized Blazer
Just when I get used to wearing the fitted blazer and have donated almost all my ’90s oversized blazers to charity.., these big; slouchy blazers have made a comeback! Unlike the ’80s – think of Joan Collins and Grace Jones’ power-shouldered power suits – the ’90s oversized blazer was more laid back and clean-lined. What […]
