Black scrunchy trench – Daily Style
Hello my darlings! Sorry to have been away from you all for so long but I had a mega crazy weekend. Between working on Saturday and nursing several employees through a myriad of traumas I was too exhausted to dress well so I slobbed around all weekend in maxi dresses and granny cardigans. It wasn’t pretty. I also had a lovely dinner date with Mr Smaggle, patted a teeny tiny smaggly little rabbit who I nearly squished to death because he was so cute, played some Mario Kart and fashioned a guitar string into a bracelet for my friend’s new lady. It was a super cute idea so I’m thinking of exploring some guitar string jewellery options… I’ll keep you posted!
* 2 pairs of opaque tights from Coles. I can’t find tights that are warm or thick enough so I’ve been doubling up. I’m now too scared to wear single pairs because I feel so toasty with my tights to the power of two.
* Short sleeve trench from Valley Girl. I know that this style was slammed through out the blogosphere but I tried it on and felt so deliciously sporty that I couldn’t resist the purchase. I’m feeling so Lil’ Kim right now… I’m seriously resisting the urge start crumping on my desk.
* Vivienne Westwood for Melissa mary janes. The love affair continues dispite the fact that I gauged a big chunk out of the side of the left one on some of Daddy Smaggles plumbing gear that he left in the driveway. It was a blessing in disguise really because you can’t relax into precious new shoes until you’ve scuffed them up a bit. I feel the honeymoon period is over and we can sink into a blissful and steady romance.
* Earrings from Girlprops
* Three antique watches thrifted
* Sunglasses from Groove – These cost $2 and I freakin love them!
How have you been? How was your weekend? Oh I’ve missed you all SO MUCH!!!
Love Lady Smaggle

Oooh legs! Oooh nice! Also, GUITAR STRING JEWELLERY!?!?! Pictures immediately pls!
I went to the ballet (RNZB’s Romeo and Juliet – it was Awesome!), and I choreographed to dances for my ballet-school concert. Hmmm, a bit ballerina-ish, eh?
Man, that trench is awesome! Why were bloggers baggin it??! And the 3 watches thing is so fresh – that chick at your work doesn’t know anything, haha.
I spent my weekend bleaching/dyeing my hair. Was a nightmare..
Now I REALLY feel like playing Mario Kart..
That trench thing is definitely working for you, blogosphere be damned!
My weekend was pretty fine actually, baby birthday party, yum cha, space ships at the museum, garage sales and sunny afternoons. The only blot on the landscape was a phone call from a sleazy ex boyfriend who I haven’t spoken to in 5 years and broke up with nearly 10 years ago. Bleurgh.
I’m insane for doubling up too. It’s so cold and you do get used to the toastiness!
rabbit stew…perfect winter warmer
you slob about in maxi dresses & cardigans? even when you are slobby you are stylish!
(i slob about in my old school sports trackies and oversize big day out t-shirt)
You do all-black ever so well…
Oh wow – you look like a glamorous international Ninja lady (each watch showing a different time-zone) with your battle-scarred Vivvy W shoes
Wicked.
Awesome trench! I think I need to start keeping tights at my desk in the office, it’s freezing, but it is so hot outside!
That black outfit will go down well in Melbourne. the I love the parka/dress from valleygirl its so cool. I still madly love your melissa shoes, they are so shiny. I know what you mean about need to scuff up shoes to feel right in them, but I still get a bit sad over the 1st scuff mark.
Love the trench. And I agree about the shoes. Sometimes it’s best just to get things messed up and then you can relax!
Gorgeous as ever… Let’s see the guitar-string bracelet!
I love that coat!! I think black is a good color for you, i know that is weird cause everyone looks good in black. However the last couple black outfits of yours have a been great!! I need to go try on those shoes! I wonder which color to get, if they are good for me.
I adore that trench, too. Screw the naysayers!
