No new clothes no no new.

All pieces from Topshop.com

In the words of Dj Khaled and Drake....No new clothes no no new clothes no no! 

I'm on a clothing buying ban until October! :-(

This has been enforced by myself, in order to continue the motivation to get my collection finished. 

However that doesn't stop me from spending time supposedly looking for inspiration (yeah right) on Topshop.com looking and refreshing the 'new in' page. Their upcoming trends for AW13 have absolutely soooo many lush pieces and alot of the trends include texture and alot of feminine touches. These days I've been inundated with a love for wedge shoes. I don't need them as most of the ones on sale are for summer, and I already own like 3 recently new pairs for ages that have never been worn (forgive me oh fellow shoe lovers out there, remember recovering shoeaholic and all etc lol) but the shoe angels out there keep throwing my attention towards them.

Impractical for the upcoming cold season, I have to remind myself that treking to work in the snow was not fun last time and I wore chelsea boots, so how I think that wedges would be any better...I must be crazy...mmm but driving in wedges can be done hehehe!

I'm not one for big massive prints and colours but the shock setting mustard shoes and scarf are totally nothing short of beautiful. The checks are incredibly versatile and a great way to do librarian chic but with a sexy twist by adding the green stilettos. And we all know that if I don't make myself a bangin' coat/jacket then this super gorgeous check wool boyfriend coatigan will be my next autumn coat !

Don't get me started on the jewellery. No that I also work for that department, I WILL be getting new pieces whether my bank manager likes it or not! 

Looking forward to adding sequins to my daily wardrobe looks, it's not everyday I can dress like Cinderella or my style icon Diana Princess of Wales but I can add some of their glamour to some simple basics like a pencil skirt, will def make one because a-line and my luscious hips just ain't gonna work.

But all in all I'm looking forward to what AW13 has to offer on the high street and more so more excited for my collection too!

After seven sunny days in April.

Winter in this beautiful country of ours (England) has been rather draining emotionally and sartorially. Not being able to see the sun and waking up to complete darkness these past months have taken it’s toll on poor old me.

 Snow, rain, hail, sleet you name it, we’ve had it. And yes I know that winter is not supposed to be enjoyable per say but I think that of all the seasons Autumn Winter is my favourite fashion wise. Designers go to great imaginative lengths to make each a/w different from the last, and do their absolute hardest to not fall for the ‘cliché’ winter looks and colours that we all know.  This being said, it’s not been easy to dress up and have fun in the mornings when major practicalities have to come into view. My nice black patent Chelsea boots aren’t going to keep my feet firmly on the ground when I’m slipping and sliding all over the ice now are they? But hooray!!! Spring is officially here. Although many of the spring lines hit many of the High Street brands in January, it’s only now that wearing such clothing is appropriate as the temperatures have been hitting 18, and my oh my is England soo beautiful in the spring!

I know the colour palette is very summery, but sometimes our spring here is also our summer rolled into one! So one has to make the most of it. I am totally loving the oriental kimono from Topshop; that paired with the fringe midi dress, wild green wedges and cat-eye shades and I’m ready for tea and cake on a roof top garden in Knightsbridge. #SoSpringRightNow

The Galaxy at my feet.

I do promise you that I do buy and wear clothes :-) :-)  I think that shoes are just so much more interesting to buy/wear and blog about! Clothes are there to protect our beautiful curves and bumps from mother natures elements, and yes, in this civilization we currently reside in; clothes can be immensely beautiful as well as serve a purpose. However shoes are a different kettle of fish altogether! Sky high heels are not practical or a necessity-their hardly the best things to be wearing when pounding the pavements on the morning commute,neither are they biologically sound-otherwise God would have us all walk around the joint like ballerinas and all shoes would be shaped to accommodate such! But as unpractical, biologically dangerous and sky scraping high as they are; we or rather I have fallen in love with them. 

These darlings were sitting there on the sale rack-minding their own business one Saturday evening, when I happened to walk past Topshop Flagship at Oxford Circus and in a twinkle of an eye the heaters at the front of the store, lured me in and my senses were awoken. Bright bold colour's strewn across mannequins in statement crop tees with zebras on them, jungle inspired hairstyles and boxy neoprene bags, passed me by as I casually descended down to the ground floor. They say that in life things come to you when you are neither looking for or needing them-and with this pair it was just like love at first sight and just my size and just the perfect price. 

Have a lovely week all :-)
