Pretender.

Vintage shirt, cardigan & bag, Bracewell shorts, CK socks, Asos shoes

Our 'Winter' has been pretending to be Summer this past week and I must say, I'm really into it. It always takes me a while to get used to being barelegged when warmer weather comes around so I tend to go a little top heavy with chunk knits to ease myself into it. Looking forward to the Summer time, fun times!

Animalia.

Vintage skirt, bag & jewelry, YSL ring, dog tee by Louie Joyce, Asos boots

Last week I went to an RSPCA fundraiser exhibition by some illustration students, which Louie is one of. Tap Gallery was filled with wonderful animal illustrations and merchandise, so much amazing work and completely inspiring. I picked up this cute tee designed by Louie and I had to cut it up a little to make it more me :)

I'm really diggin' white on white at the moment and I stuck with the animal theme and teamed this outfit with my new leopard print booties. Hope all is wonderful in your world. Outie!

Green Keen.

Vintage shirt, chino's, bag & necklace, Asos bandeau top, socks & heels

I've become a huge fan of this tube top that I'm wearing underneath my shirt. Can not wait for Summer! Then I can team it with a floaty, long maxi and a thick gold choker. I'll be one happy lady. As for these heels i bought... minor regret pangs. The straps are made out of thick elastic material so there is minimal ankle support, wearing the socks and tucking my pants in them helped a lot! They are only just walkable in so it's safe to say that i have dubbed these as my sitting shoes and that is what they shall be.

A beautifully styled editorial from German Vogue, October 2010. I absolutely adore the retro vibe and really badly want gold choker necklace. And the cat eye's, wowza!

Velvet Painting.

Vintage dress, skirt, belt, purse and jewelry. Asos heels

I bought this weird velvet kaftan dress thing from an old lady at a garage sale and it immediately  caught my eye because of it's incredible colour but I thought the glittery floral painting was quite tacky. The nice old lady informed me she had bought it in India and that it was hand painted and that created some new found appreciation for it. She had also told me it came as a two piece Kameez (Indian attire) but she had misplaced the pants, thank goodness! Imagine wearing matching velvet pants with this. Velvet overload and just really gross!

It had been sitting in my wardrobe for a while because I never really decided if i loved it or hated it but I knew I wanted it. And now that i have worn it, i love it and am thinking of taking of the sleeves and rocking it with some high waisted hot pants.
