Hiring A Baby Capsule Wardrobe! Review of Borrowed By Baby

June 18, 2022 Lauren Natalia

I have an exciting post to share today, which, as you can tell from the title, is all about baby capsule wardrobes!

As you’ll probably know if you’ve been reading for a while, I am a big fan of having a capsule wardrobe for myself, but have found it kind of difficult to implement the same streamlined approach to my kiddies wardrobe’s (they just grow so fast and it can be tricky planning out your purchases when you just don’t know how long they will be in a certain size!)

You can imagine my excitement when Stevie the owner of Borrowed by Baby contacted me and asked if I would like to try out a baby capsule wardrobe for Matteo! There could not be a more aligned collaboration and I’m so happy to be able to share this really awesome business with you!

November 8, 2021 Lauren Natalia

Today I’m sharing with you my pregnancy style essentials. A list of pieces to have in your wardrobe that will help you feel comfortable and stylish throughout your pregnancy and hopefully help avoid any “Nothing fits!!! I have nothing to wear!!” meltdowns (especially during that third trimester!)

I hope this can be a helpful guide, whether you are a fashion lover who is excited for the challenge of “dressing the bump” or someone who just wants to get through pregnancy looking reasonably presentable, while buying the bare minimum of maternity clothes!

Timeless & Versatile Spring/Summer Clothing Haul - Updating My Capsule Wardrobe

December 13, 2020 Lauren Natalia

Spring Summer Clothing Haul LaurenNatalia.png

Hello Hello!

Long time no blogging, but I’m back today with a spring/summer fashion haul video, sharing some of the basic, staple pieces that I've recently purchased to update my capsule wardrobe!

We are well into summer in Australia now so I'm a little late posting this (I actually filmed it about 2 months ago!) but better late than never right?!

These are all really versatile clothing items that can be dressed up and down and have become core pieces in my wardrobe that I’ve been wearing on repeat. As you know, I'm all about curating a versatile, intentional closet and being more mindful when it comes to my purchases, so rather than encouraging you to just go out and buy a bunch of things that I'm showing, hopefully this small haul can inspire and help you to be a bit more thoughtful about your shopping and really consider how the new items will work with your existing wardrobe.

I'm sharing some pieces from Zara, Sportsgirl, Kmart and Dotti today and for once they are current items that are still available so I’ve been able to link them below if you’d like to check them out yourself!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy seeing some of the beautiful new pieces I've picked up. Even if you're not in the market for new clothes hopefully this will give you some ideas on how you can style the pieces you already own!

If you’d like some more of my tips and tricks on finding your signature style and simplifying your wardrobe, you can check out my FREE STYLE COURSE here! It’s a four part video series that walks you through my process step-by-step to help eliminate any wardrobe overwhelm, solve the problem of “I have nothing to wear” once and for all and help you feel effortlessly put together everyday (even if you’re just staying home right now with the craziness that has been 2020!) I really believe in that saying “look good, feel good” - and the new year is a perfect time to have a little refresh of your style and wardrobe.

Let me know if you enjoy the video and as always - come say hi over on instagram @laurennatalia.co

Lots of Love

How To Get Out Of A Style Rut and Feel Inspired By Your Wardrobe Again!

How To Get Out Of A Style Rut Pinterest.png

Today I’m sharing 9 tips to help you get out of a style rut! There’s a video to go along with this one, if you’d prefer to watch rather than read!

If you’re anything like me, the colder weather can really stifle the enjoyment of choosing what to wear in the morning (I just don’t want to get out of my warm cozy trackies). Combine that with the the fact that a lot of us are still likely staying home a lot due to Covid, lacking time due to life being crazy, or just have other more important priorities (as in my case with an adorable little 10 month old!), it can be very easy to slip into a rut of wearing the same thing over and over again, and just feeling a bit “blah” when it comes to your wardrobe and the way you’re dressing.

I’m obviously not saying there is anything wrong with outfit repeating - as you know I’m a big fan of “uniforms” and capsule wardrobes and am always aiming get heaps of wear from my clothes!

I’m talking about the times when you’re just feeling really bored, un-motivated, exhausted and un-inspired by your wardrobe and nothing seems to be making you feel good.

I’ve been there lately and thought I would share a few of the tips I used to find my way out of that style rut and feel more excited by what I’m wearing!

Navy Jumpsuit- A Wardrobe Staple Styled Three Ways

May 16, 2020 Lauren Natalia

I’m back today sharing 3 ways of styling one of my fave versatile wardrobe staples - the jumpsuit!

While a jumpsuit may not be the first piece that springs to mind when it comes to wardrobe must-haves, I’ve found that for me and my style, jumpsuits are just a super easy “one and done” piece that can be worn in so many different ways and are perfect for almost any occasion! They’re easy to throw on (like a dress there’s no need to find something to match it with!) and have that relaxed, cool vibe to them. At the same time a jumpsuit can still be easily dressed up for a more fancy look!

I feel like I write the same thing over and over again when I talk about wardrobe staples, but I guess that’s what it’s all about - easy pieces that can be transformed for any occasion!

This one from French Connection (which is still available and currently on sale!) is so comfy and got bonus points because the ribbed bodice makes it breastfeeding friendly too - something that was a very important factor for me this past summer!
