Leather & Lace

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!

Firstly, apologies for the long time between updates. It has been far too long!
It has been a crazy few months and I have not been able to spend time on blogging.
It’s a new year however, and it comes with new updates for the blog!

As a start 2014 I wanted to share my Parisian adventure with you all.

Paris is one of my favourite cities in the world.
Spring, summer, autumn, winter – it really doesn’t matter.

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.

The cut, colour, flowing fabric, the detail of the subtle pleating.

Ev & The City – Charleston Edition

May31

I am pretty much ready to run away to the South!
After a few days, I have fallen deeply in love with Charleston.

The food (yes I tried grits, and no they are not for me!), the cute buildings running along cobblestone streets, the history, markets, horse drawn carriages…
Added to this, it was perfect warm weather every day.
Ohhh so dreamy – leaving me in a pastel frame of mind.

Trying something new with my hair – I have finally purchased the hair donut (a few dollars from H&M – and they stock various sizes to suit everyone).
Result – AWESOME. It was super easy and took me no more than two minutes!!

Shorts – Loft
Top – Calvin Klein
Bag – Gucci
Shoes – PeepToe
Glasses – Chanel
Nails – California Coral by Essie

Off to watch Gone With The Wind now with my favourite leading southern man, Rhett Butler… quickly grab the smelling salts…

Under the boardwalk…

May29

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
Hat – similar here
Shoes – Christian Louboutin Sling Back Sughero in Naturale

Here’s to many sunny days ahead.

Black & Gold

May25

While black and gold may be a classic combination, throw in shiny gold pants and what you have is anything but classic.
I love these statement gold Zara pants. They can be super dressy, or made more daytime dependant on what you pair them with.

Absolutely in love with this spin on a classic black shirt – sheer tails!! So much fun.

The outfit was made complete with some black & gold accessories.
Now don’t also forget the springtime pop of nail colour – here I opted for California Coral by Essie.

Pants – Zara
Top – BCBGMaxazria
Bracelet – MARC by Marc Jacobs
Shoes – Fendi

Remember, girls do love gold!

Hamptons Happy!

How can one not be happy in such a beautiful place?
The beautiful ocean, quaint buildings and generally gorgeous surrounds leave a big smile on your face.

And all this just a few hour out of the city – BLISS!!

Dress: Ralph Lauren, Bag: Chanel, Bangle: similar here, shoes: Friis & Company

So now all I need to complete by Hamptons experience is a house similar to the one Victoria Grayson plots in…
