Khaki


Photos by Max Rowan

This is what I wore for my last day in Melbourne, which feels like many moons ago.

After somehow managing to go through everything in my suitcase (despite serious over packing), I opted for a few of my Melbourne shopping purchases.

After a jeans hiatus, which has been celebrated by all things trouser related (exhibit A), I was drawn back in by this pair of ACNE perfection. My quest for the 'perfect pair' of jeans is not unique by any means, so I'm sure some of you can understand the euphoria experienced upon trying on this second skin pair, featuring just the right ratio of high waisted to skinny leg. The fact that I scored my best fitting jeans to date on sale did not hurt either.

It was inevitable that I would venture into Topshop whilst in Melbourne and one of the first pieces that caught my eye was this comfy khaki knit. I love how you can dress this knit up with neutral collared shirts or keep it casual on its own. How would you wear khaki?

Jumper: Topshop (similar here)
