As for my outerwear, I wore this cream plush coat that really works against wind chills especially when I step out from the house in the morning. Because we have mild winter in Australia, this coat can be taken off when the midday sun is out.
My son took these photos for me in the sun-drenched Sydney Opera House which is only 5 minutes walk from my work. We went to The Rocks afterwards for a dose of crepes and mocha at Creperie Suzette. You have to see this area which is another 5 minutes walk from the Opera House if you haven't been. The Rocks has a boutique vibe lined up with hip cafes and instagrammable spots. Just look at this yellow bike with a tin full of flowers, isn't it cool?
Seems like I'm not over yet wearing a knitted dress this entire cool season. Well, that's what's winter is about, knitwear and more knitwear. You can opt for a turtle neck tops and cardigans but you can also wear something with an unassuming neckline yet a revealing back :)
Thank you for reading, 'til next post. You can connect me in Instagram busyandfab to see my fab finds, other outfits and events in between posts.

DeleteYou're so lucky to be able to wear such a high heel, Mercy. Your boots are fantastic! They look great against your white coat. What a charming café, and your mocha and crepes look scrumptious. I love places like this. These are very nice pictures taken by your son.
