Bootlegging: How to perfect your winter style

We’re blessed with mild winters and year round ‘t-shirt and shorts’ weather, but let’s face it – winter on the Gold Coast is the perfect time to ramp up the style factor. 

And where better to start than The Strand’s mecca of style – Moelleux. The team have carefully hand-picked the hottest pieces to keep you on trend this season. 

For the girls

Denim is the staple of the season – and nobody does it better than Nobody Denim. Their white skinny jeans are the perfect match for the Senso KELSEY ankle boot, with a slide on style and a touch of glimmer on the finish. 

Keep the look soft and simple, with the slightest nod to the not-so-distant summer in the Hansel and Gretel high neck tank in black. Drape over a loose fitting knit for those cooler mornings. 

When it’s time to dress it up, the new Tia boot by Senso is one of those must-haves. All class with a pointed toe, fine lace-up and a high block heel replacing the stiletto for ultimate comfort. Pair it with skinny jeans or a long skirt and prepare for boot envy from everyone you meet.   

For the guys

Two words – leather jacket. 

James Dean knew what he was doing. Every man needs a leather jacket, and it’s an investment in a staple that never goes out of fashion. The hand-picked leather biker jacket from Stolen Girlfriends Club is made from textured grain New Zealand leather and looks as good as it feels. 

A shirt that takes you from casual day to sharp and smart for night is another winter essential. Libertine-Libertine has a classic shirting range that can’t be passed up – Moelleux is the only Gold Coast stockist. The Hunter shirt is an easy style to add to the winter wardrobe.    

Of course, winter on the Gold Coast is more about looking the part than staying warm, so it’s time to get out the shaving cream and say goodbye to the beards. Check out Triumph & Disaster’s Old Fashioned shave cream and brush. Your face will thank you for it.
