Sunday Blues

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.

Sunday brunch with friends is always a treat.

This was no exception. From great decor and food, to some live music.
I was certainly not blue about the bottomless Mimosa on offer either 🙂

Tribeca Grand Hotel really has a great Sunday brunch offering!

Just kickin’ back…

So pretty!!

Some Sunday tunes

Obsessed with the stunning detail on this chair – the decor was a great mix at Tribeca Grand.

Loving this belt I found – giving it a bit of rock!

Top – Phillip Lim for Target
Pants – Karl Lagerfeld
Belt – old
Shoes – Peep Toe
Jacket – Zara

To fun and friends,

Rock ‘N Red

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.

P.S Calorie’s don’t count on your birthday weekend -right??!!??

My Big “BANGS” Theory!

Jan17

I had a theory, a theory that:

– Brunettes with bangs have more fun

– Bangs would make me look a bit younger (perhaps from fear and hope as my birthday approaches….)

– I would love them on me

– My husband wouldn’t…

So I decided to take the leap.

As I went for a quick trim (at the gorgeous Butterfly Salon – a must try!!) i watched the hairdresser excitedly cut off 12 inches of hair…

Top: Zara lace & pattern blouse.

If it’s good for Kim K and the first lady, it’s good for me….

Bangs are back baby.

Winter Wonderland

Nov11

Snow storm Athena covered NY and it’s surrounds in some beautiful snow.

Yes, the tourist in me was jumping up and down with delight as I saw snow flakes outside my window late Wednesday afternoon – meanwhile my co-workers looked at me and sighed. The sight of fresh snow did not hold the same dreamlike fairytale connotations for them, as they are accustomed to such sights and the implications for travel etc.

What is it about snow though?
The beautiful white covering makes everything appear magical.
I wanted to break out in spontaneous Christmas songs (we all know that snow equals Santa, come on now), and the snow-covered street lamps taking me back to far off magical lands like Narnia – ok am I off on a tangent now?

All this white did reinvigorate my love for the colour.
Fall, winter – sure who cares, you can wear white.

I know there are those who question white in the colder months. I for one say embrace.
OK so maybe not white jeans if it’s pouring out, however there are plenty of nice fall/winter days where white items can be a key feature of your outfit.

Below are some items that I am now salivating over.

Celebrating Columbus Day on 5th Avenue

Oct9

When in Rome do as the Romans do – right?!?!
It would have been inexcusable not get amongst the spirit, and celebrate Columbus Day (I really had no excuse as it was a work free day for me).
So I did it in the best way I knew how – the all american way with the Columbus Day Parade on 5th Avenue! What is more American than a parade?

The outfit I selected for such an important day?
Zara faux fur vest (it was cold!!!!), 7 For All Man Kind jeans, black Ralph Lauren ankle boots and my cherished Chanel handbag.

It wasn’t just about the phenomenal shopping on this famous New York street – I am pleading the fifth and continue to maintain I went with ALL good intentions to simply watch the annual Columbus Day Parade and then accidentally tripped and fell into Saks, Banana Republic and Armani Exchange (just to name a few)….

I walked out of Saks a woman obsessed.
Obsessed and determined that (before the year is out) I will be the proud owner of the limited edition Chanel embellished logo cuff bracelet and some Christian Louboutin Vampanodo Satin and Suede Bow platform sandals – EPIC!!!!!!!!

At $1,900 for the Chanel cuff and $1000 for the shoes, I don’t think my husband or my bank manager are going to be very impressed with a certain shopaholic.
Maybe Santa could be ever so kind????

The loot I ended up with? Well, let’s just say I did ok, but that is for another post.
For now, I’m off to dream of satin bows and intertwined C’s instead…
Goodnight to all.
