Spectacular Santorini!

Sep2

I have just found heaven on earth – it is off the coast of mainland Greece, on the island of Santorini.
Beautiful doesn’t even begin to describe this paradise. I am in love, obsessed, already thinking about when I can go back…

The dramatic cliffside dotted with white grecian architecture provide an amazing sight with the bluest backdrop of the Aegean Sea.
Literally, a summer playground like no other.

Summer dreaming…

I never want to leave!

White on white, with white!

I could stay up here for hours…

Soaking up the sun.

Greek paradise…

Perhaps I can find a way to “work” remotely from there each summer?
Wish me luck!

Shades of summer

Jul27

What could be better than lazy sun filled days? Summer is just the best!!
From simple minimal makeup to your outfit, neutrals and pastels are the perfect compliment..

Lazy summer days

Loving these nude Armani pointy pumps for sophisticated summer casual.

Looking after suede, hmmm…

Minimal makeup. Les Beiges for cheeks and a nude palette for eyes (with just one quick application of mascara)!

Highlighting your summer glow with just a dash of makeup!

Love a light (but slightly pink) nail.[/caption]

Beautiful detail on this sleeveless blouse makes it less casual, while still keeping you cool on hot summer days.

Sun, fun and…comfort.
Summer tank with shorts and comfy shoes. Perfect for a day full of walking around seeing the sites.

I previously talked about mix and match pieces when you pack – it can be a whole new outfit with just a top change!
It’s all about maximising that suitcase space.

Travel Time

Jul13

If you have a love for clothes, shoes, handbags, accessories… or ALL of these… there is one thing that scares you more than humidity for curly hair. Packing.
First of all I am not, I repeat NOT, a clairvoyant. I can NOT see into the future. How am I supposed to know what I will feel like wearing tomorrow or the next day??????

So while I can’t take this pain away completely, I will share some tips to try and at least ease the pain of packing.
(1) Claim as much luggage space as possible if you are travelling with a significant other
(2) Pick one or two colour themes
(3) Try a few pieces that are easily “mix and matches”
(4) Avoid changing climates if possible (when going from hot to cold packing those massive jackets takes up WAY too much shoe space)

With the above in mind, I went with a lot of red-white-blue recently for my 4th July trip to Nashville.

Dress up casual with a cute top and nice handbag!

Yes i love heels – but comfy travel shoes are a must!

A mani just makes you feel better – this one 4th July themed!!

Airport boredom…

Longer sleeves keep you warm if the plan is overly air-conditioned (though with split sleeves that was questionable lol).

Where better to celebrate America than in the city of music??
Making sure that my suitcase was filled with an appropriately patriotic colour themed wardrobe, I ventured to Nashville for the Independence Day long weekend.

Flag accessory mandatory on the 4th July!

Yes, even my nails were in the spirit!

Wanted Wednesday

May7

This week I am dreaming, drooling and obsessing over these epic CHANEL shoes.
They have taken the classic black pump — to the next level!

Pumps that I simply must own.
May sell non-vital organs to fund…. Hmmmm…

|Ev xo

Just a splash of pink!

May4

Just a tiny bit of pink, goes a long way!

This outfit all started with the shoes. All pink base, then dipped almost entirely in black leaving just a peep of pink at the front — so fun!
Loved this concept of just having only a tiny dash of the feature colour, so applied it to the remainder of the outfit.

Cowl Neck Top – H&M (similar here)
Pants – Peter Pillotto for Target
Bracelet – Valentino Rockstud
Belt – Similar here
Shoes – Christian Dior Sublime Pump (Rose Et Noir)
Lip gloss – Christian Dior

Enjoy the weekend,

What else could I possibly feature today – other than an item from the Kate Moss for Topshop line???
Although there were quite a few cute items (at decent prices) this playsuit in particular caught my eye!! SO ADORBS!

Sunday Blues

Apr28

Yes, yesterday I did have the Sunday blues.
Referring to the outfit colour choice only – there was nothing to be emotionally blue about during this sensational sunday in the city that I love.
