exploring blog archives: howtwolive, september-december 2012

Melbourne-based sisters Jess and Stef Dadon started howtwolive back in 2012 to stay in contact when Stef moved to Paris for six months.  Thanks to their colorful, maximalist style and model-esque silhouettes, they quickly rose to blogging prominence and soon found themselves attending fashion week, working with brands, and writing a book.  

Sadly, the site that hosted the majority of their best outfits is now dead, but their early blogging forays can still be seen on their original blogspot.  Some of their looks are aggressively 2010's (hello coral top and hi-low skirts), but not in a cringe-y way.   Their outfits had lots of personality.  Jess and Stef weren't shy about mixing prints and wearing bright colors, and I think their style is pretty refreshing and playful.  Plus, they had the coolest accessories—I'm practically drooling over their funky sunglasses and handbags.  Take a look below: 


































I wanted the Jeffrey Campbell Shadow Spikes so badly
