The Split Maxi Skirt

I used to lament the fact that I didn’t live in a place where I could pop down to the mall for my favourite international brands. However, recently, I can’t imagine a better place to be right now but right here in the middle of – dare I say it – the Australian fashion renaissance. I’m discovering more and more drool-worthy Aussie brands all the time, which were totally made for my relaxed minimal aesthetic. I have to thank Canberra boutique Mussen Clothing for my fateful introduction to Aussie brand Staple the Label. This label can do no wrong in my eyes. This split maxi skirt is one my favourite pieces from Staple the Label’s new season collection. It’s sexy, not sexual. That’s what it’s all about.

My stripe obsession continues with this effortless striped top by Mink Pink, also from Mussen Clothing. Due to a sudden drop in temperatures here in Canberra, I’ve topped it all off with this spring-perfect faux suede cropped biker jacket from Missguided.

P.S For my Canberra readers, you can pop right into the Mussen Clothing boutique to check out these items and other new season beauties. They’re address is 17 Mort Street, in Civic.
