Jamie Blakey is the full, inspirational package – founder of cult fashion label oneteaspoon, creative force behind fab website Lveland, wife and mother to 3 (ridiculously good looking) children.
Spending a morning with Jamie, the reasons behind her success become evident – aside from generally being just heaps of fun to hang out with, she manages to strike that perfect balance between sexy/cool, laid-back, old-school and rock.
Want to take a little peek inside Jamie’s wardrobe too?
Follow the link below for all the pics from our shoot as well as her musings on style, happiness and the search for that perfect custom made dog collar…
5 words to describe my style are… I have no idea how to describe my style?? It just is what it is… It’s always the same look though, it’s just the fit, cuts, proportions and colours that change.
My go-to outfit is… jeans and tees.
On the top of my wish list is… The Gloss x Warber Parker 10-01 Aviators in jet silver to be specific….. they’re sold out!
Heels or flats?… heels to look at, flats to wear.
The best (fashion) lesson i’ve learnt is… keep it classic, but current.
My most recent fashion purchase is… my leather top hat that I bought 18 months ago. I have new stuff from work all the time though (which is an upside to having a fashion label!) My most recent addition to the wardrobe is the new ‘King Pins’ (denim… such a surprise!) It’s my new fave cut and I have a different wash for everyday.
I keep buying more… nappies.
I need more… nappies.
I wish I’d never bought… I don’t regret anything I’ve ever bought… except maybe once when I was 10. I bought this blue & white gingham 2 piece set – a skirt and matching shirt with ruffles on it. I spent all my pocket money on it and never wore it. This must have really bugged me because I still remember it.
If I could only keep 3 things in my wardrobe, they would be… jeans, shorts and tees.
My favourite labels are… I don’t have favourites. I do my own thing and wear that. Of course, that said…. I do love a designer bag. That comes with the territory doesn’t it?? So for me in that department, Balenciaga.
My favourite online shops are… Etsy & Gumtree.
I always feel happy when I wear… my new ankle bracelets!!
I wish I’d never got rid of… I don’t regret getting rid of anything. I do a wardrobe clean out every 3-4 months. I love a chuck out!
Any outfit looks better with… ankle bracelets in rose gold or silver… or both together!
Is it better to be overdressed or underdressed? For me, definitely underdressed!!! Without a doubt.
Lipstick or gloss? For everyday… neither. But when making an effort, an awesome matt pop-colour lipstick.
Coffee or tea? Is that a question??!! Coffee fa’ sure!
I could happily live the rest of my life without seeing another… set of invisible bra straps. because…. they’re not invisible.
