Stripes, light and dark

Stripes, light and dark

img src: various tumblr A little bit of what I’m currently into, a complete mixed bag of seasons, but for the most part, season-less. Breton striped tees whimsically tucked into full skirts or an array of shorts, statement necklaces that make an outfit pop, black on black on black, especially when the luxury of leather is involved, and more recently, all white as it just seems so.. relevant. It’s not quite winter yet, well, actually only halfway through summer, but with the rainy weather we have been having lately, thoughts of cozy jumpers that feel like a dream to wear,…

Outfit: Fresh start for 2013

Outfit: Fresh start for 2013

Glassons peplum top, Karen Walker skirt, belt and cadet hat, Charlotte Olympia kitty flats, Proenza Schouler PS11 bag, Marc by Marc Jacobs katie bracelet, Stolen Girlfriends Club bow ring This week has signified some pretty huge changes in my life, essentially setting the backdrop for what is a fresh start to the year.

It feels like such a shame to be back at work today when the view from my office is sunny blue skies, making the temptation to head to the beach and soak up some sun during my lunch hour look pretty appealing. I can’t help but be drawn to florals and punchy coloured skirts in the summertime, so have been wearing…

New Year’s Eve

New Year’s Eve

Lover mini wiccan lace dress (similar), Acne cardigan, YSL clutch (similar), Givenchy heels, Marc by Marc Jacobs bracelet, SGC bow ring Finished 2012 off on a high note, spending the evening enjoying a 10 course degustation (vegetarian for me) at The Whitehouse, followed by drinks with some friends, wearing none other than one of my favourite labels, Lover. Having spent many of the past few NYE nights doing the overseas thing, the festival thing, and on a few occasions, working, I really relish the opportunity to have what I consider to be a low key night, ringing in the year…
