For me, it’s this $20 crochet skirt I bought at SES about ten years ago. Here it is in..

What’s your magic wardrobe item? The one you reach for time and time again? The one you’ve worn for several years and that you intend to wear for several more?

    That is a very good question and I’m having to think, but it could be my very first ever Alannah Hill purchase. It’s a beautiful green jacket with pink candy stripe lining – it’s a size too big for me because that was the smallest size they had and I HAD to have it (one of those times where you have something in your head that you want, and you actually manage to find it in a shop!) but it looks fine on and I love it to death! Admittedly, I don’t wear it “that” often, but I don’t think I’ll ever throw it away.

      I actually sold my Alannah Hill stuff this year. Love her stuff but I got over my frilly, lacey, girly phase in my early 20s. Your jacket sounds awesome though. x

    I’ve got an amazing midnight blue maxi dress which I bought for $9 at the Newtown Vinnies. It’s the most intricately constructed dress I own and always gets me compliments. I will wear it as long as it fits and keep it for longer.
    Also my cowboy boots. <3

      I think I know which one you’re talking about! That was a score.

    Classic navy, long line, one-button blazer that I got from Vinnies for $4 years ago. It is so clean, classic and lovely and it looks beautiful with a soft dress as much as with red jeans and heels. Versatile, to say the least. 

    To be honest, i have a few ‘never to throw away’ pieces. Another is a Cue halter-cute dress that literally never dates. I have worn it to five weddings and never regretted the choice, it is a total ‘Audrey’ dress.

    Love it! Not surprised you’ve kept it over all these years. I think mine would have to be a laser cut white pleated skirt.. It’s just incredible!
