You're a Star, You Really Are



This is my latest desire.  How very simple.  Gold on silver - not something I'd always be the first in the queue for.  Mathias Chaize has made this in such perfect tones, that I almost forgot I'm not too keen on this unusual colour combination.


Either way, this necklace has been added to my wish list and I plan to purchase it next week. I can't wait!

Cheetah

-jacket, dress & trousers / tibi-

I've always been a fan of leopard print - even more so when it's styled well.  This Tibi cheetah print is on the next level for me, it looks so clean and effortless.  I can imagine introducing each of these pieces into my everyday life - certainly the jacket and trousers. 
The price tag is a little too high for my piggy bank, but a girl can dream.  If you've already done the saving then hop over to www.my-wardrobe.com for a better look.

Found

-necklaces / tom binns-

Lately I've been on the look out for the 'perfect' sparkly necklace.  I came across Tom Binns at the weekend - a pair of his earrings caught my eye in a magazine.  Curiosity brought me to his website where I immediately forgot about the earrings & found all my attention focused instead on these necklaces.  Each Swarovski crystal is hand-painted in bright colours.  An impressive eye-catching collection that leaves me dreaming of the summer months ahead.

Recent Purchases

-shorts / vero moda, shirt / asos, dress shoes & necklace / Topshop-


Ok, so I was off to a great start with my blog by successfully neglecting it.  Sorry.  If it makes it any better I'm back & plan to be more caring of it in future.


Anyway.  Here is a few of my purchases from the last few weeks & I can't tell you how thrilled I am with them.  My favourite of all is the elephant print shirt - a very simple white shirt with a scattering of several blackened elephant silhouettes.  I've been looking for the perfect shirt for a while & I think I may have found it.  It can be worn dressed up or down which is how I like the items in wardrobe to be.


I stick to boots throughout the winter & grab my flats when the warmth of summer arrives (which is seemingly delayed here in England).  These studded Topshop slippers have been waiting in my shoe collection for weeks anticipating their first outing.  The sunshine decided to pay a brief visit at the weekend, so I took them out for a spin & my oh my, they are mighty fine - I actually couldn't stop starring at my feet!


I have fallen head over heels for that blue & gold beauty above - yes, I'm talking about the necklace.  I'm quite obsessed by short necklaces at the moment and this one is fitting in my collection nicely.


Grey, grey, grey.  I pretty much always wear grey - it's my fail safe.  So I bought even more.  Such a cute basic dress - something I lack in my wardrobe!


Then there's the shorts from Vero Moda.  The colour, the print, the shape.  Ahh, I can't wait for the opportunity to slip on these beauties!
