Short suiting

Karen Walker blazer, shorts, jewellery and sunglasses; Acne blouse (similar); Topshop boots (similar); Meadowlark ring; Proenza Schouler bagThe obsession with short suits continues. Grabbing what is probably my last chance to wear one before the chill really sets in Wellington on Sunday. It’s strange to think that something is pretty much over when it never really began. Paired with my other obsession, the Acne sleeveless blouse, and sturdy boots perfect for stomping around the city in.

Karen Walker blazer, Zara jumper, Topshop jeans & boots, Proenza Schouler bag, YSL ring In stark contrast to the relaxing four-day “Easter” weekend, this weekend just past was full of activities.

As the contents of my wardrobe have slowly (or perhaps I should say steadily) evolved over the years, I’ve…

T by Alexander Wang dress, Karen Walker sunglasses and jacket, Givenchy heels, Meadowlark ring, Celine bag A couple weeks back I met up with the ever-so-lovely Nina from the StyleHive, a catch-up I must say was long overdue! Our afternoon date consisted of tea, sweet treats, and a stroll along the waterfront, contemplating more sweet treats (it was hot, and there’s no better solution to a hot day than ice cream.. right?). I think one of the best parts was finally seeing Nina’s Miu Miu neon pink spectator heels in action, even if she did swap them halfway through for…

MSGM Pre-Fall ’12

MSGM Pre-Fall ’12

img src – MGSM The beautiful collection that is MGSM pre-Fall 12 is something I stumbled across a wee while back, and am only just getting around to posting. It serves as quite possibly the best inspiration that I have seen lately, with perhaps a mild touch of deja vu, combining the best elements of some lookbooks that have been floating around. The print on prints, bold colours and interesting layering pull the collection together nicely, and are just a couple of the reasons that I would be happy to have each and every piece magically appear hanging in my…
