Black & Gold

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…

Rock ‘N Red

May2

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…

On the wharf

Red with red, then some red…

COH Pants

Details on the sleeve – love.

A splash of red here and there…

Red Top – Zara.
Black pants – Citizens Of Humanity.
Pumps – Christian Louboutin.
Bracelet – similar here.

I always wanted to be in a band – shame I can’t sing.

A Jump Of Faith…

Apr23

To jump(suit) or not to jump(suit) – that is the question.
I have taken a jump of faith, and finally embraced this scary piece of fashion.

In my mind you had to be six-foot-ten and a size to zero to step out in this one piece creation.
I have tested (with a simple, safe plain black one) – and can happily say I have embraced!

Some gold accessories added, a little wedge, and I enjoyed my first rendezvous with a jumpsuit!

A little grecian vibe with my hold headband (similar here).

The look:
Black jumpsuit (similar here), gold chain belt (similar here), shoes from Messeca NYC.

Who knows – maybe I’ll be brave enough to be in colorful jumpsuits next!

Little BLUE Jacket

Apr17

I have been patiently (well mostly) waiting for the weather to be warm enough for me to rip the price tag off with glee and skip outside!!
Bewitched by this colour.
Infatuated with my new little blue jacket.

Casual lunch, shopping, work…it is just so versatile and fun.

My little blue jacket – Vince Camuto (Rough & Refined in Emperor Blue)

Black BCBGMaxazria skirt.

Black & Blue

The complete look!

Blue stockings – CRAZY!

Coloured fishnets don’t have to be goth or fancy dress – similar here.
Ralph Lauren ankle boots to complete the black & blue outfit.

Make up to finish the look.

Add a pop of colour to your make up also!
MAC Eye Shadow Frost (Deep Truth), Chanel Lip Gloss (Levres Scintillantes Glossimer (#02 Brilliance), Chanel Nail Colour in #561 Suspicious & #455 Lotus Rouge.

Michael Kors – Large Hamilton Tote

Don’t stop at the jacket – add some blue to the eye’s too!
Here’s to being blue (well clothing-wise that is!!)

Date Night!

Apr7

I was determined that the flu would not get me down.
Loaded with DayQuil and a tonne of foundation I was off to date night.

Whenever in doubt (or feeling awful)… black is always best!
Therefore, out came the LBD.
Mixed with some subtle splashes of gold (and a jewel on the shoe) for colour.

Last but not least, a fun manicure.
Everything is better after a touch of pampering.
I am generally very boring with my colour choice (OPI Big Apple Red every time).
This time I stepped out of the comfort zone and went with a deep purple (OPI Vant to bite my neck) and a glitter feature nail.
Loving the feature nail as it let’s you have some fun, without having to commit to a full hand of glitter.

Love the see through arms – adding that something special to a simple LBD.

SABA coat (and freezing legs - is it spring yet????)

SABA trench coat (and freezing legs – is it spring yet????)

The outfit – black with black!

DKNY LBD

Jimmy Choo clutch with gold hardware and tassels.

Love these Jimmy Choo pumps with some gold and a jewel for colour.

Enjoying the city – even when sick!

Birthday Girl Gifts!

Feb21

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!

Colour, sparkle & shine – always sublime!

Jan5

Sparkles and colour are always a nice outfit addition – holiday season or not (though I for one am in denial that the holidays have past).
Ready for wherever the days adventure may take you. Coffee with the girls, a stroll through the city, or a sneaky early evening cocktail.

Mix black with some bold coloured garments and throw in a sparkly jacket – off you go.

Being on another continent these past few weeks has certainly not stopped me shopping, and these seasons sales were good to me!.
Here are just a few of the finds I am loving at the moment.

Pop on this MANGO cropped Sequins & Beads jacket, paired with this fun MANGO Maxi Studs top.
(Speaking of MANGO – how good does Kate Moss look in their campaign. GORGE!!)

Now we all want to brighten up our winter – an easy way to do it is with some bold pants.
I found these great bright red pair on the sale rack at H&M! They are super comfortable, with a nice cut suitable for either work or play!

Every outfit is at it’s best when finished off with a Louboutin shoe – here with the gorgeous “Decollete” glossy leather pump.

Sparkle the winter away…
