The best layering piece ? This fabulous camel cash

The best layering piece ?
This fabulous camel cashmere knit @netaporter
It’s the elevated basic that will effortlessly slide under every single thing in your wardrobe. Swipez vous 👉

From a leather bomber with grey culottes to a crop trench & leather pants or a super duper long coat and grey jeans this gorgeous camel knit was the missing link in my life !

So soft it’s in a neater, shorter cut so it just works layered under all my outerwear ( not too bulky!) and sits perfectly on the waist with my jeans & pants. No need to worry about tucking in really as it’s just right in the length department!

Of course it’s totally chic on its own too - without a coat or jacket - because the shape is so well cut it just skims & doesn’t cling : yes please !

I’m wearing a large in the knit .

Styling tips ;
It’s all about mixing grey & chocolate brown ( if you didn’t notice !) with a dollop of camel . ✔️
Add white shoes to lighten the look ✔️
Think three colours on the body ✔️
Mix up the tones of the same colour ✔️
Don’t be scared of mixing oversized coats with baggy pants
just add a neat knit under there to keep it from an OD of too much slouch ✔️

Steal my style and shop all these pieces (if not similar!) @netaporter via @ltk.australia ; it’s so easy to shop directly from the app. #shopwithfifi #netaporter #fififavfinds #ad

Don’t you love it when you throw new pieces with

Don’t you love it when you throw new pieces with old and everything just seem to work ?! It’s so good !

This is my new fabulous suede tote bag thx @strandbags with the choc brown cords I just nabbed @davidjonesstore .

Styled those with an old (still available!) slouchy neutral sweater from @netaporter and one of my favorite coats from few a years ago @shopthecurated .

The way to pull it all together?
White pointy slingbacks @netaporter. They lighten up all the tones of browns and add a little fashion edge.

My point ?
It’s about building a versatile wardrobe ; taking time to think before you buy, being a conscious consumer. I am lucky enough to be gifted so many clothes but that doesn’t mean that I choose pieces willy nilly without any thought :
No, No and No !

I take time to think about what I need, what works, what are the gaps, the missing pieces I know I’ll wear. A lot.

Because let’s remember the aim in life ;
To have a versatile modern wardrobe that has great cost per wear , a wardrobe that makes you feel chic and confident.
Which means you can get dressed with your eyes closed. In five minutes flat ! Every day. Yes, please!

I’ll post links in stories and similar pieces to shop over on @ltk.australia #shopwithfifi #fififavfinds #fifireport #shopyourwardrobe

How to be chic on winter weekends or when you’re

How to be chic on winter weekends or when you’re living your best every day life? Jackets. Jackets and more Jackets ! It’s the secret to effortless dressing.
They make or break an outfit.
Instantly joosh up everything in your wardrobe. (Want to keep wearing everything from last year? Invest in white loafers)(more on that later!)
 Outerwear is where you need to spend your money. I’m talking Bomber jackets, Barn jackets, blouson jackets and everything in between.
What’s not to love : these jackets are cool ! They will give you structure.
Make a statement. Add a fashion edge.
They might even keep you warm. Ha!

Here are all my favorite jackets I’ll be wearing again this season. Hope it gives you some ideas !

It’s getting a little chilly ! Time to pull out

It’s getting a little chilly !
Time to pull out your sweaters - finally- and try new ways of styling them.

Remember the FiFi philosophy: update the classics.
Stick to classics colours but new modern shapes :
You want a sweater that’s slouchy with room to move.
You want camel pants that are wide leg, and jeans that are baggy.

Then look at new ways of styling : a knit layered over a lace cami - you get the contrast of a pretty top with a wintery knit .

The lace adds texture, breaks up the brown tones and is a little unexpected, something soft with the denim.
Add heels , grab a clutch and when it gets colder throw on a long brown on your shoulders . Easy !

Chocolate brown. Mocha. Espresso. Cocoa.  Whatev

Chocolate brown. Mocha. Espresso. Cocoa.  Whatever you call it’s THE big colour for winter. Again. It’s the third winter I’ve devoted a whole post to just to brown, and why not ?
I always love it and my wardrobe is bursting with it.
And so are all the stores ! There is so much of it around even I am struggling with the choice : I know you need me to sort through to find the best pieces …

How to wear chocolate brown? Obviously chocolate works head to toe ! Most importantly it’s a match made in heaven with all tones of neutrals, camel and caramel. You can try it with blue jeans, with grey jeans and white jeans. You can build around your brown pieces and then add a few other colours like navy, black, grey & denim.
Go crazy with colours like orange & blue ( oh that’s enough colours haha..). Hint: Don’t fuss about what colours go with what , it’s the new modern shapes that count. 
Remember I am not saying buy everything here.
Take your pick: It might be a fabulous bag and that’s all. Maybe some loafers. Could be a major coat or a leather skirt. Just add in one or two pieces in choc brown and watch as they work wonders and instantly joosh all your current pieces needing a little help in your wardrobe !

I’m having a little love-in with designer belts

I’m having a little love-in with designer belts !

It’s one of those accessories that adds personality and instantly elevates everything you own.
Because a little bit of luxury goes a long way right ?

As US Vogue writes “Jewelry, bags and shoes get all the love, but a statement belt can really make a look. Think of them like jewelry for your clothes—they’re worth investing in.”
No wonder belts were all over the spring 2026 runways at Ralph Lauren, Celine, Khaite, and Chloé.

My advice ; go for a tan, beige or choc brown belt.
It’s a clever way to add another colour to your outfits .
If you have alot browns & neutrals ( me ! )a tan belt slips effortlessly into your everyday wardrobe.

Swipez vous to see how I’ve tossed either YSL or Valentino belt with everything from jeans, to leather , big coats and with shorts 👉👉👆

That’s the thing with belts they not discerning : They don’t care whether it’s summer or winter, hot or cold , casual, weekend or evening 😜

Which is why it’s an accessory worth spending money on. Because a belt is 24/7 and 12 months a year investment and you can’t argue with that right? #costperwear

My pick this season is this YSL belt @netaporter
Although big buckle belts (Celine !) are a big trend ATM I love the subtlety of a smaller belt.

Jeans & a tee. Always chic, Nothing simpler ! The

Jeans & a tee.
Always chic, Nothing simpler !
The trick ?
Update ! Update ! Update !

These two wardrobe essentials need to be updated into new modern shapes - because (as I’m always repeating!) classics date, you can’t wear them forever . Jeans , tee shirts, trenchcoats, black pants, knits and blazers all have a use by date !

One day the pieces you’ve always worn suddenly feel a bit daggy, a bit wrong, a bit blah right ?
You don’t feel good.
You can’t put your finger on it.
After all, these are classics and you’re supposed to be able to wear them forever.
Then you try to fix the situation with too many silly accessories, god forbid with bright colours. Wrong !

The solution: update all your favorite classics into new modern exciting shapes.

Jeans right now , so cool in a barrel shape, in dark denim .
A T-shirt that’s slouchy, an interesting texture.

Best thing is when you update to new modern shapes everything looks great , no jooshing needed. You just put them on, instant chic , out the door. Done !

Wearing size 30 in the Rollas jeans and large in the Tee. Swipe for other ways I’ve worn the jeans.
I’ll post links in stories , as always you can find everything linked over @ltk.australia #shopwithfifi #fififavfinds

Let’s talk about denim! Jeans are pivotal to your wardrobe ,
whatever age or shape you are. The key to looking modern and effortless? Update ! Update ! Update ! Yes, update the shape of your favorite denim. And watch as your whole wardrobe suddenly gets an injection of chic.  
Here’s the denim you need to invest in right now :
( the good news: every SINGLE item right here is available from THEICONIC )#ad @theiconicau

Outfit 1. Barrel shape jeans are so flattering , cool and so right for day in a lighter blue wash. Then why not double denim it with this pretty denim shirt , love the frill collar and cuffs.
Add white mules & a tan bag to add contrast and texture. Chic !

Outfit 2.
Barrel leg jeans in a darker denim wash are perfect !
A bit chicer, more elevated than blue denim but still low key for smart casual.
This fabulous crop jacket is a match made in heaven with high waist jeans. Soft, almost like a cardigan , but ten times coooler. Love it !
Pull it all together with satin brown heels & a shoulder bag/clutch. And you’re ready to head out.

Outfit 3
White straight jeans are de rigueur in your winter wardrobe ! Love the idea of white denim with a slouchy grey knit on chilly weekends. These straight white jeans sit really well under a long knit & balance out the silhouette.
Add a camel coat , a black tote & heels and you’re sorted !
