THOMAS JAMES CARR

This announcement is long overdue. Two months ago I turned my life upside down by moving to Sydney and starting a new role as Brand Manager for Australian fashion label @jacandjack If you know me, this will come as no surprise. I've been wearing Jac + Jack for years and years, in fact it's the only brand I wear. Lifestyle media is where I found my niche, and given my love of fashion and the brand, this felt like the right direction to take at this point in my career. To be working alongside founders @jac.hunt and @lisajackdempsey is a dream come true. In many ways, the last two months have felt surreal. There will be a lot more fashion focused content coming your way but I thought best to start here. This photo was taken on my first weekend in Sydney, at lunch with Jac wearing a custom @jacandjack kaftan. Life really is glorious x

In August last year Jaaf and I got engaged while at Lake Como, Italy. Over the weekend we returned to Jaaf's family's summer house at Salters Point, Massachusetts to marry. Over three days we celebrated alongside 40 friends and family with three gorgeous events, including a classic New England clambake with lobster and champagne. Jaaf's family have spent every summer at Salters since he was a boy, so to tie the knot there, surrounded by so much history, was incredibly special. Such a special part of the world. Thank you to @jac.hunt who created and customised two of my outfits, a cerise silk set and a hand-loomed kaftan. Wearing @jacandjack was non-negotiable, given it's the only brand I wear, so thank you so much for going above and beyond. A big thank you to everyone who travelled far and wide to celebrate with us, together we created memories that will last a lifetime x

A few @jacandjack archival looks shared between @jac.hunt and I over the last few months x

It's been lovely living without social media x here are a few of my favourite moments from the last few months. Without Instagram as a prompt, I took far less photos than I would normally. On many occasions I didn't even lift my phone, and they're the moments I remember most.

ICYMI! Inspired by my recent trip to Italy. From stellar homegrown examples, to the Italian and French liqueurs we know and love. My latest piece for @guardianaustralia x link in bio

The renovation of our 1920's textile factory conversion, in the heart of Fitzroy, continues. This time the laundry and second bathroom. Breathing new life into this warehouse has been both challenging and rewarding, but seeing the end result makes it all worthwhile. Thank you to Bryant and his team for another superb job x
