There really is rarely a Wednesday (or any other day for that matter) that I don’t want a new pair of shoes….
So, in true form, this week my WW item is this super fun creation from Mr Louboutin.
The Pigalle Spikes!
Wishing you a colorful day,

Taking a bit of a walk on the dark side in all black leather and lace…
All black does not need to be goth, and is prefect for the glorious winter day outside.
Testing out this cute faux leather skirt before I invest in a real one.
Thoughts?
I love the leather details on this winter coat!

Romance is not dead – nor should it be.
Just take a look around Central Park. The couple on a picnic, the first date happening at the Boat House, the husband rowing his wife under the Bow Bridge.
Diane von Furstenberg coral creation adds its own romantic touch to this city escape.
The cut, colour, flowing fabric, the detail of the subtle pleating.

So here we are – Wanted Wednesday #2.
There may have been some controversy over WW #1 – specifically around the segment launching with a cuff and not my poison. Namely, shoes.
Fear not my friends – for this weeks wanted item is SHOES!
Christian Louboutin perfection – the Pigalle Spikes in Grenadine.
Pink, spiked and a 12cm (approx. 5 inch) heel.
Summertime should not preclude you from wearing black.
Au contraire – you just need to make it feel more summery with some florals, or a splash of colour!
My favourite colour this season has to be anything in the coral family. I am finding myself drawn to anything coral spotted on the rack.
So pretty and feminine.
So here is my version of a summertime “black” outfit.
Love this Alex Perry top with a beautiful big floral pattern, an interesting vest-like shape at the top and flattering pleats.
Loving the hair donut!!
So quick, easy and elegant.
Nail colour by Essie – Haute As Hello
The detail on this bag is gorgeous – from the multi coloured panels, to the DVF kiss!
Floral top – Alex Perry
Skirt – Loft
Shoes – Christian Louboutin En Passant
Bag – DVF
Nail Polish – Haute As Hello by Essie
Hair donut – here
Enjoying my summer – hope you are too!

A truly perfect day in the sun.
Attractive men battling it out while riding beautiful horses was already a seller. Throw in champagne, a postcard perfect view, an excuse to get dressed up and there is no way you could keep me away!

I was lucky enough to spend the Memorial Day holiday weekend in the South, by the beach.
The Isle of Palms, just twenty minutes out of Charleston, was beautiful. Long beaches, perfect weather – an amazing escape.
My tropic inspired dress comes courtesy of H&M – and their conscious collection.
So now you can feel good about a cute dress, at an incredible price, WHILE doing something better for the environment. Win, win and win.
Teamed up with some cute spring pumps, and my new venture the BIG HAT!
I have always been terrified of the large brimmed hat, but finally made the leap. Thoughts?
Dress – H&M

Shoes – Christian Louboutin Sling Back Sughero in Naturale
Here’s to many sunny days ahead.

As soon as you put shiny black pants on – your inner rockstar cheers!
Mixing up my new favourite waxed black jeans with some bright reds. To this I added some silver and sparkle – then completed the look with a messy up do.
A fun evening outfit – glam rock inspired.
Watch the gaps…

Red with red, then some red…

St. Parick’s day doesn’t need to be filled just with tacky green accessories – and leave you questioning if you can ever wear green. There are plenty of beautiful, fashionable items to adorn for the festivities.

Not going to lie – I do love a gift.
Not going to lie – I do like to help my husband with subtle hints each year to make his shopping trip quick and painless.
Subtle hints usually include magazines left open with wanted item circled and links to my birthday wish-list pinterest board.
Or the best approach, really, is just to email the want list with links directly to purchase source!!
And it is that time again – the week of my birthday!
Although I do like to make it a month long celebration.
This year I thought I would add a blog post to my “subtle” hints to the perfect present purchase for my husband!
