"I don't understand how a woman can leave the house without fixing herself up a little-if only out of politeness. And then, you never know, maybe thats the day she has a date with destiny. And it's best to be pretty as possible for destiny." - Coco Chanel.

My lil brother was home for the easter weekend but sadly went back to grahamstown on Thursday. We decided on a very chilled day out and ended up irritating eachother (as usual) instead. Few shots of what I wore on the day.

Must actually admit though, the ruffled shirt is a real confidence booster, with puffed shoulder sleeves. The bag was handed down to me by my grandmother, how lucky am I :)

This is the coolest tie iv seen yet ! 

bright & bold


I got a lil impatient with uploading these because apparently this is Spring 2011's trend, bright colours with the bold stripes and polka dots. Elegance. Sophistication. Independence. All in one - I love the full skirts mostly, which I'm trying so hard to fill up my wardrobe with.

lust haves !

This hat and girl look so cute put together. I went out shopping a week ago (when my phone got robbed) and found a similar hat, but made out of wool and inside it had built in earphones, sooo cool. I sadly walked out the store empty handed though but its definitely in my budget :)


My birthday is coming up in about 3 months and I'm hoping and praying someone will be thoughtful enough to hook me up with a leopard print dress (pout). I feel a tear welling up every time I pass by traffic and all I can basically do is...just that.PASS and not finally own it.

Its amazing how you can even look stylish whilst walking your pet ! Military jacket is a total lust have in ones closet. I cant wait to get one. Olivia Palermo paired it up so beautifully with a belt and the remarkable dash of attitude :) - YAY to stylish pet walkers !

Got myself a cute leopard printed scarf this weekend :) a similar beret  is next. I obviously wont wear them together at the same time,no,no.

I love this skirt so so much. My mom got it for me at some thrift store a few weeks ago. What i find so amazing about it is the belt ,that i just zip up and down to take the skirt on and off.Instead of having to take the whole belt and lose everytime

LBD much :) ?!

I've had this dress for over like a year now, and this was the only time I had to take the price tag off. I've always thought its a dress more to be worn out on functions and such - why waste though by letting it gather up dust ?? i find it very smart. especially considering the fact that i can just add stockings and a coat for cold season

ruffles


an outfit i wore last weekend when i was actually planning on being home- yes i do dress up to just chill and do nothing, simply because getting all dressed up, helps me be in a better mood and state of mind- until i was saved by a couple of friends who offered to take me and a friend out.
theres something about ruffled tops that give you a sophistcated look, especially if you add a blazer on top to finish up the look.

watch me do it !


This has to be the most exciting outfit in my wardrobe. I Love this typo look so so much. Having the 'edgy' look to whatever you wear is a must i believe. - biker jackets. MAJOR thumbs up. I'm a person who normally wears skirts, i feel very comfortable in them. Trousers and pants give me problems because I'm wide hipped and would rather not flaunt much ;). xx
