Leather bomber + a treat!

By
. . 32

I’ve had such a crazy couple of weeks - if you’ve been following me on Instagram you’ll have seen some snaps of the stunning Queensland hinterlands where my cousin Faith got married last weekend. I came back to Sydney smack on work deadline and have been playing catch up a bit.. I have a ton of pictures to go through!







But first, I’ve been wanting to share this leather bomber from a few years ago, it was lost in our move last year and I was gutted. I finally found it in my basement in a box last month when I did some spring cleaning and did some restoration work on the leather and have been wearing it quite a lot lately. It’s always been one of my favourites and still is. Classics never go out of style right? Paired with some aviators because anything else doesn’t feel quite right. Also these shoes are my new obsession - how amazing is the cut? I found it in a random store here, pretty sure they’re inspired by these, so I just had to have them!

By the way do you sometimes spend ages browsing an online store then realise they don’t ship to your country.. just as you’re about to check out? I came across Baublebar some time ago - they have some pretty cool pieces (like this lock bracelet) and I wished they shipped over here. Well, guess what? Baublebar just started shipping to Australia! (yay) And to celebrate, they’ve given me a code to share with you lovely readers. Enter ABSOLUTELYFUZZY20 at checkout to enjoy 20% off ;)

Enjoy! x

    I love how you’re able to spice up seemingly plain outfits, like with the cut of your top and the cool shape of your shoes! And yay for baublebar in Australia :)

    Love the Topshop draped top. I thought you were wearing a Helmut Lang special or something so I’m delighted to see it’s credited as Topshop. And the shoes are amazing!

    BTW - how many leather jackets do you actually have?

    Love that leather jacket - such a nice metallic shine to it! So glad you found it again :)

    I know how you feel with stores that never ship to Australia, haha. Now it’s always the first thing I check! :)

    Glad you enjoyed your trip up north- and a day in southbank was a lovely way to spend time in the city :) Especially on a warm weekend. Funny enough, the DFO I was shopping in on Saturday was the airport DFO! I live close by, too close for my credit card to take sometimes, haha!

    Steph, I’m so happy that you found this beauty: this tan bomber jacket looks perfect for you and I really like how it goes with your black & grey ensemble. I’m glad Baublebar ships to your country: that store is a great source of inspiration and temptation!

    i was gonna buy some statement earrings from Baublebar the other day. They are gorgeous! At the end, I realised that they don’t ship to Asia at the checkout… Silly me. LOL

    I’m actually in love with that jacket. They look so much better when they’re old and worn. I have one from the 70s that I need to have cleaned but I’m terrified :(

    Those shoes! Uhh, so amazing. The bomber is beautiful too, love the subtle metallic colour, it looks kinda like a normal brown leather, but where the light hits it, so pretty. It’s the best feeling when you think you’ve lost something to find it again years later isn’t it?! :)

    I love uncovering lost gems! One of the best feelings in the world. Also feel your pain about the online shipping, though I always come across sites that do ship here but they want to charge me over $30! Hell no I won’t pay that hahaha!

    Love that draped t-shirt! And those shoes! Did I miss something, because I couldn’t find the details for the shoes on this post… Regardless, they are gorgeous. And I can’t imagine how happy you must have been to rediscover a long-lost much-loved item like that jacket. Joy! Thanks for stopping by and commenting,

    Love a classic leather jacket. I need more in my wardrobe or I have a sneaking suspicion my one black bomber will deteriorate at a fast pace. Love you shoes too! Haven’t really invested time exploring Bauble bar but maybe I should
