The Style Edit: What We’re Spending Our Paychecks On Right Now
Bye bye savings
Welcome to the Shopaholics Club, a club where we online shop for a living and spend our paychecks before the day is out. At Style, we struggle to refrain from buying those things we absolutely must have, and boy, have we been hard at work! With the change of season coming in hot, we are gearing up for holidays, wardrobe updates, and just general necessities (yes, mugs and candles are necessities).
Whether we’ve pulled the trigger or the products are patiently waiting in our carts, here’s what some of the Stylers are loving ATM.
Love them too? We don’t blame you. Go on – click add to cart!

I cannot get these wide-leg jeans from Deering World’s new collection out of my head. The fit is just *chef’s kiss* and the white with camel accents? Next level. I’d pair them with this camel leather purse from The Row—sleek, chic, and the perfect mix of sexy and sophisticated. And to top it off, Le Labo’s matcha scent has been my obsession lately. It’s fresh, modern, and pulls everything together. Honestly, this trio is an accurate representation of me right now.

Time to pack away the jeans and long sleeves – the weather is heating up and I couldn’t be more stoked about it. In lieu of the changing seasons, I’m refreshing my wardrobe and looking to add some elevated basics and statement pieces. This Elka Collective top is perfect – I am obsessed with the silver detailing on it. I am also loving this Venroy beaded skirt, which is such a unique twist on a classic mini skirt. And lastly, I’ve had my eye on these Lu Goldie sunnies for a while now… it might be time to bite the bullet!

I recently purchased a pair of Golden Goose Dad-Stars while travelling in Spain and to say I’m in love would be an understatement. Comfy AF and super wearable, they are my new go-to sneakers. Whilst away, I stumbled across a Korean beauty store where I bought the Beauty Of Joseon Revive Serum which features the infamous snail mucus. And yep, it’s just as incredible as you’d expect. On my wishlist leading up to summer is pretty much anything in St Agni’s new range, however, this top in particular. Super cute for a casual summer look but also possible to dress up with a black mini skirt. I say wishlist but I’m sure I’ll be picking this one up soon.

Picking only 3 things from my wishlist was harder than getting out of bed this morning whilst it was pouring rain outside! But as the hot and tropical weather looms here in Queensland I couldn’t go past a trendy pair of Anine Bing sunglasses to compliment my summer outfits, the new Summer Fridays Jet Lag serum to plump my skin ready for make-up-free beach days. Last but not least, the luxurious marble wine cooler from Fluer Studios to keep the Champagne crisp this silly season!

I am loving this book so far, and the strategies to set goals are super eye-opening – highly recommend! My latest challenge has been finding a new skin product that would give my skin a lift on the days I need a little boost. So, off I went to Mecca where the girls were super helpful in recommending barMinerals Skin-Perfecting Powder Foundation. So far, so good! Finally, I’ve finally found the perfect sneakers in Adidas’ Gazelles. I have been wearing these every day and they are so comfortable – love them!

Hi, I’m Yana, and I have a confession… I love to shop. But honestly, who doesn’t know that by now? So, let me spill the deets on my latest purchases. First up, let’s talk about the best compliment you can get. For me, it’s hands down, “Wow, you smell amazing! What are you wearing?” Well, let me tell you—it’s D.S. & Durga I don’t know what. I found a sample in my Mecca beauty loop a few weeks ago, tried it once, and boom, I was sold. Next up, this Deiji Studios halterneck top — coastal chic! When they finally restocked, I made a beeline for the Byron Bay store. It’s brown with cute blue stripes, perfect for breezy summer days. Lastly, I’m buzzing about my new Omnilux LED mask. Glowing skin, here I come! That’s all for my current purchases — peace out.
