TUTORIAL TUESDAY: How to care for your leather garments

Written By Courtney Rogers - October 25 2021

There’s no denying good quality leather pieces are the stand out to any outfit. Everyone notices them and you’d be hard pressed to put a bad outfit together if it’s featuring a good quality leather piece. They are our wardrobe go-to pieces, adding a sense of luxe and style to any outfit.

I can't live without the following in my wardrobe at all times:

A great leather biker jacket - takes care of all the outfits that need a jacket in cooler weather and also add serious streetstyle to even the most basic of outfits
Good quality black leather leggings - a staple and must have
Great quality leather track pants - these are THE HOTTEST new style this year and are a serious must have. Check out our styling video on them here to see how to style them!
A great quality leather mini or midi skirt - check out our styling tips for those here.

And being timeless investment pieces I take care of them knowing I’ll have them for 10+ years if I do.

So here are our top tips on how to care for your leather garments!

How to style your outfits with your smart watches

Written By Courtney Rogers - October 20 2021

You asked, we listened! We all LOVE our smart watches. They keep us organised, carry our music on our wrists and encourage us to develop lots of healthy habits like moving more, drinking more water and standing up regularly if we sit too often!

They are quite literally a god send.

But...

Most of them are pretty sporty looking and look great with our casual outfits but a bit odd with our more glamorous outfits.

So you wanted tips for styling that included your smart watches.

Because we take your requests seriously, we took a poll on our instagram to narrow our efforts in on the watches most of you are wearing.

According to our poll, most of you are wearing an Apple watch in either gold or rose gold.

So here are our top tips on styling your gold or rose gold smart watches so you can still get all their fab function AND look stylish every day!

We had a play with our watches and it came down to two main tips. They are...

Activewear

Activewear is a no brainer. Smart watches are sporty so they go perfectly with activewear. So if you love your smart watch, it's time to up your activewear game and start wearing more sporty outfits more regularly. Check out some of our recommendations below.

Colour coordinate

When it comes to wearing less sporty looks, colour coordinating will be your best friend.

Your smart watch will be less conspicous if you colour match your outfits to help conceal it a little. Help it stand out less! See what we mean below.

So give some of these outfits a go ladies and let your smart watch blend into YOUR world, not the other way around!

Lots of love

ACTIVE LOOKS FOR YOUR SMART WATCH

Embrace the sportiness of your smart watch and level up to it in expertly styled active looks!

Your smart watch would look PERFECT with the PE Nation Strating Block Jacket (worn here as a vest!)

Long sleeves and jackets are great because they take your watch out of the picture and make it much easier to style! We have plenty of great PE Nation jackets available that will do just this for you!

The PE Nation Pegasus Tee has a bold presence in one of this season's hottest trends: ANIMAL PRINT and will match your smart watches perfectly!

And it's not just for active looks! Pair it with our 2ndskin Hope Leather Leggings or Ginger & Smart Collective Joggers and fresh white sneakers for a streetstyle look your friends will be envious of! Finish the look with its matching Take Charge Bag!

Courtney is embracing that sporty looky here in her PE Nation Upfield Sweat and Trackpant and the Full Court Jacket! Perfect match for her smart watch! (not to mention the inspo you need to get out there and go for a walk to close those rings!

All of our latest PE Nation new arrivals will look INCREDIBLE with your smart watch and some of them have a great street edge to them too so will do casual looks so easily for you and your smart watch!

The PE Nation Check Mark Sweat has a true-to-heritage P.E look with a repeated P.E Nation flat logo on the chest bringing a technicolor hit to this soft sweat.

Style it with a pair of our Nobody Denim Jeans under the brand new Ginger & Smart Horizon Trench and sneakers for off duty vibes your friends will be envious of!

And our expertly selected active pieces at mikoandmollie.com can so easily cross over into dressy casual and sports luxe looks so you and your smart watch are set!

COLOUR COORDINATING YOUR SMART WATCH

But when it comes to getting a bit dressed up, colour coordinating is your best friend! See here we've used the Camilla Belle of the Baroque Double Layer Hem Skirt to complement the gold tones of the smart watch and help the watch blend into obscurity. The Dylan Kain bag also helps, especially holding it at the wrist like that. The whole outfit blends together! Give it a go!

Same again here with the Camilla Call of the Cathedral One Shoulder Kaftan (only TWO left! This is one of our bestsellers!)

Use accessories in the same tone to help your smart watch blend in! We have plenty of matching Dylan Kain bags and belts for you to choose from!

Here we've used the similar tones of the Camilla Shakespear's Garden Off Shoulder Dress to help the smart watch blend in again! The busy prints of Camilla are your best friend when it comes to helping smart watches disappear into your outfit and look less obviously sporty!

And we love this dress because it can be dressed up or down so easily which means you have multiple smart watch-appropriate outfits all with just one dress!

We tested the Camilla Belle of the Baroque Round Neck Kaftan with both rose gold and gold smart watches and this kaftan helps them both blend in easily! Not to mention its simply stunning so if you have either of those coloured smart watches, you NEED this dress for party season! (the Camilla Black Luxe Heels and Dylan Kain Wax Bag don't hurt either especially if your smart watch is gold!)

And we played with some alternate dressy looks as well and they all work! Look how great the smart watch looks with the Camilla Belle of the Baroque Oversized Tee (ALMOST SOLD OUT!) and Gothic Goddess Harems? A party season outfit fit for a QUEEN that also suits your smart watch! WOO HOO!

So get your smart watch-ready outfits here and enjoy technology AND style!

Meet the makers of Andean Collective!

Written By Courtney Rogers - September 21 2021

Last month we introduced to you one of our favourite new brands, Andean Collective (pronounce An-dee-ahn). Their garments will speak for themselves and constantly sell out, but we wanted you to understand WHY.

Andean Collective began in Byron Bay with a dream: to create pieces inspired by nature, that combined the two beautiful cultures of Australia and Peru into sustainable designs to be loved for seasons to come. ANDEAN COLLECTIVE is a small, ethical brand creating contemporary luxury pieces that can stand alone or be mixed and matched with the rest of your wardrobe.

Born from a common respect for the environment and the people who inhabit it, Andean works towards creating high-quality products using nature's finest materials while ensuring we replenish the resources we use. Through integrity and transparency, Andean seeks to create a future in which fashion supports a thriving planet. Andean Collective hopes to set an example in the fashion industry, by designing pieces that align ethics and aesthetics, encouraging a more conscious lifestyle. All of their beautiful pieces are handmade with love in Peru, highlighting how our unique, timeless garments can outshine industrially, mass-produced products. They aim to combine traditional weaving that has been practised in the Peruvian culture for decades with modern designs to bring you your forever favourites.

They work predominantly with strong women, from their local team in Byron Bay to their beautiful Artisans in Peru. They are very proud to be able to encourage them in their creative endeavours, supporting their families and working towards their goals. Their pieces are an ode to the strong women who inspire us every day, from the creators to those who wear our creations.

Here's what the girls have to say about the reason they feel so strongly about working with Peruvian women...

Date day/night outfit ideas and some fun suggestions for lockdown dates!

Written By Courtney Rogers - September 04 2021

Last night we did a really fun styling session on date day/night outfit ideas!

We did a mix of casual and dressy outfits, mindful of the fact that some of us can't get out and about at the moment so we wanted to inspire you to have a date day/night in your own home if you're currently in a lockdown!

We are LOVING how versatile these pieces are! Most of these expertly selected pieces did casual and dressy date outfits EASILY, with just a switch of the shoes! Sneakers are the casual date outfit best friend, but you can easily switch them for heels and turn most of these outfits into spectacular, knock-his/her-socks off date outfits as well! And an ankle boot proves to be that perfect middle ground - not too dressy, not too casual!

Check out how we styled some of our favourite new items from PE Nation, Camilla, Ginger & Smart and The Upside in both casual and dressy outfits that'll bring the sparkle back to your eye!

We also have heaps of great lockdown date day/night ideas below too!
