The final blogger taking part in our first ever Blogger Style-off<\/a><\/strong> is Charmaine James, the face behind Heart + Bleecker<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

We touched based with the Perth-based blogger about effortless style, her collection of frames and obsession with slip-on shoes!<\/p>\n

And remember, if Charmaine\u2019s your favourite blogger \u2013 you can vote for her\u00a0this Friday<\/strong>\u00a0to be in for the chance of\u00a0winning free sunglasses<\/a><\/strong>!<\/p>\n

\"Heart<\/p>\n

Name & Nickname<\/strong>: Charmaine, or ‘Chow’ for short.<\/p>\n

Home base:<\/strong> Perth, Australia<\/p>\n

Current occupation:<\/strong> Law student (working a part time job to fund my addiction to clothes)<\/p>\n

Website\/blog:<\/strong> www.heartandbleecker.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Instagram:<\/strong>\u00a0 @heartbleecker<\/p>\n

What inspires me:\u00a0<\/strong>At the moment? Minimalism, simple\/classic pieces and looks, leather pieces and white on white.<\/p>\n

Sunglasses Style:\u00a0<\/strong>Yves Saint Laurent 2330S 807 JD in Black<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Yves<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

A tip on picking out the perfect pair of frames is that it’s all about the face shape!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

My glasses collection consists of 3 pairs of frames:<\/strong> Ray-Bans, Celines and Chloes; but I’m only really attached to one pair.<\/p>\n

I chose the pair of glasses I’m wearing because:<\/strong> The wide frame and lenses are reminiscent of the Celine Audreys, which I just love.<\/p>\n

A tip on picking out the perfect pair of frames is:<\/strong> It’s all about the face shape!<\/p>\n

My favourite online source for style inspiration is:<\/strong> Definitely Tumblr; it’s often moody and eclectic (just like me hah).<\/p>\n

Buying the same piece of clothing in multiple colours, yay or nay?\u00a0<\/strong>In cases where the piece is classic, definitely yay. I’m currently contemplating buying the Proenza Schouler PS11 in brown, and I already have it in black…<\/p>\n

\"Heart<\/p>\n

My favourite fashion trend of the moment is:<\/strong> Slip on shoes (I have four pairs of Celine slip ons!) Although I will still love this look regardless of whether it is a trend or not.<\/p>\n

If I could be stuck in an elevator with anyone, it would be:<\/strong> My partner Nick, as he is the only one who would put up with my crazy babbling, or Jesse Eisenberg (awesome actor and he’s pretty adorable too).<\/p>\n

I would describe my personal style as:<\/strong> Hobo-esque.<\/p>\n

My current style muse is:<\/strong> Other style bloggers, in particular India Rose\u00a0and mija<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Favourite city to go shopping is:<\/strong> New York, hands down.<\/p>\n

Final word:<\/strong>\u00a0It’s too cold to think properly!<\/p>\n
