I'd rather be a comma than a full stop

A funny fact
Slowly (but steadily) making my way through the piles of activities that have to get done: sorting out my room, reading emails, blog posts, making an attempt at the accumulating amount of work, buying important things like batteries and skin cream.
So sorry for the no show recently, I've got a few posts lined up as soon as my iPhoto sorts itself out and I can upload the thousands of pictures on my phone and camera! Favourite Photos of the Week tomorrow, don't forget!

Old: Outfit post



Finally the photo tab on Blogspot decided to sort itself out.. I've been meaning to post this outfit I wore to school for more than a week but the photos didn't turn up! Anyways, as you can see, decided to wear a classic white shirt with cropped at the ankle black trousers, with this necklace that I got given for my birthday. :)

SORRY for the extremely late post, the internet's been down and now that it's back up it's been quite slow :( Spent so long trying to post this that these photos are starting to become my least favourite now haha. My favourites of this week (well past week, now) have been more outfit orientated as I've been battling with my wardrobe to produce SOMETHING to wear. It seems that all I can and want to wear are jumpers and jeans and I'm getting sick of it, I want to find new ways of wearing them while staying practical at the same time! 

Tomorrow I'm off to go explore markets around London, so if anyone has any good (and cheap!!) boutiques to check out please let me know!

Have a great week!

Monday blues

Monday blues


Organic by John Patrick long sleeve t shirt, $288
Denim shirt, $60
Uniqlo striped tunic, £20
Uniqlo stretch pants, £35
Parisian Chic: A Style Guide By Ines De La Fressange, £17
River Island kitten heels, $38
POLO RALPH LAUREN v-neck jumper, £145



My current wishlist... at the moment I'm lusting everything blue! I've had a flick through the Parisian Chic book and it's definetely on my list of books to buy. Also at the moment I've been looking around for the classic blue and white striped sailors shirt. I'm guessing Uniqlo is my best option as Petit Bateau is a little out of budget.

Hope everyone's had a good day!

Elie Saab Couture Spring 2012 Collection favourites


The cut of the material around the plunging neckline makes this dress sexy and daring, but keeping it classy at the same time. That, with the bow belt, this dress further emphasises the waistline making this look suitable for most body shapes.



What I love about this, and the one above, is how the detailing kind of fades towards the neck/chest area of the dress. These two dresses are pretty much the same design expect one has sleeves and the other cuts off at the shoulders, which makes this design versatile. 

PERFECT shade of green!


A more playful, everyday kind of dress design, this one is probably my favourite one out of the whole collection. This champagne/beige colour means that the make up possibilities are endless; one could go with a dark brown smokey eye look, or minimalist as done here in the show. However for the I think regardless of the eye make up looks, the lips should stay nude in order to compliment the dress colour. 

On a final note, Elie Saab's choice of pastel colours makes this collection very on trend.
