I did the thing I always do at the beginning of the season when I think my wardrobe needs a refresh, which is popping into all the fashion stores on Oxford Street, in Sydney’s trendy Paddington, to see what is new and the big ideas.
I flicked through giant puff sleeves, and sundresses that just cover the bottom, bright yellow satin slip dresses, botanical print shirts and hot pink terry towelling short suits, all lovely but none of which I needed. It occurred to me that I was getting distracted by the eye candy.
