To jacket, with love

Dear Manderville Bomber,

Please do not think I am a crazy stalker, but I just had to write and let you know how much you mean to me. I have been wearing you daily and you always make me look great. Once I even threw you over my nightie and popped down to Coles for some milk. The check-out lady commented on my stylish late-night getup! I hadn't the heart to tell her I was in my jimjams.

Of course, I love you with jeans and my extensive floral frock collection. I even take you to yoga with me, though I do tend to get a little sweaty and respectfully remove you for odour prevention. You are my pride and joy.

I suspect you think I say this to all my jackets, but honest-to-sweet-cotton, this is the first love letter I have ever written to an outer garment. I just wanted to say thankyou for all your comfort, support and gorgeousness.

Your number one fan,

Well adorned torso.
xxooxx

As seen in...

There's no doubt about it, we at Frisck love a good floral frock, especially when it's a white Cohen et Sabine adorned with orange daisies. You can also check out this sunny little number in this week's Grazia. Or even better, pop in and try it on for yourself.

She wore blue lace

According to my research, the throat is the area from which we express what we think in our minds and feel in our heart. Blue lace agate, from which this Mink necklace is made, is said to enhance self expression and the ability to speak openly in conversation. Particularly handy if you are planning to go on The Dr Phil Show, or even on Oprah if you are aiming high. But even if you are not one for self disclosure, this necklace is so pretty it might be worth taking the risk. Not recommended for those working in the secret services.

Best basic

You hear of people who own, like, 100 pairs of jeans and are obsessed with buying more MORE MORE! Me? I just love a stripe tee. I have a million: long sleeve, short sleeve, tank style, wool, cotton, shrunken, oversized...Now I have found another to add to my collection. Great with basic black, I would also team it with a pattern skirt. Not to matchy, matchy, but no print explosion either.

Total 'f' bomb

So we all know Serena Williams has been dropping a few 'f' bombs lately. So has Fleur Wood - as in fabulous, fantastic, f*#!ing gorgeous. Perfect for spring time BBQs and twilight soirées, this paisley frock is more hip than hippy. Love it!

Imagine...

Imagine the above dress...

In this colour.

The Kate Sylvester Civilian dress in poppy. Perfection.

To a tee

I recently made a rash and regrettable premenstrual decision and cut off all my hair. It was one of those drab wintery moments when all I wanted to do was lounge around in an oversized t-shirt and eat popcorn while watching back-to-back episodes of Drop Dead Diva. Unfortunately, I got off the couch and went to the hairdresser instead.

Perhaps I should have ditched the oversized tee and donned this more flattering version of the tee-dress by Zimmerman. With tights, boots and hot pink lips, this winter pick-me-up would have taken me right through to spring, summer and beyond. Without the bad-hair fall out I must endure for the rest of the year. If only I knew then what I know now...

Tilly the toffee coloured bag

I went to the market and I bought: a cup of tea, a slice of cake and a toffee coloured bag called Tilly. The tea and cake went down a treat, but Tilly, in all her soft leathery goodness lasted forever and ever. Even when she became an old bag, she remained soft and wrinkle-free. They call her a miracle of nature. I call her lovely.
