The Camouflage Jacket

I love the camouflage trend right now, and after trawling websites after more websites I've layed my eyes and hands on the Topshop version. I can't wait for the weather to get a bit more chillier.

(Get similar ones here and here.)

London Fashion Week so far

Here's a few of my favourites so far that I'd like to share with you guys..

Simone Rocha - Metallics, silver and plastic is always a win win for me.

McQ's hair - The bigger the better.

Peter Pilotto - I love the neon fluorescent glow mixing with the galaxy blue palette. The iridescent glow on the bombers gives off a very cyber vibe.

Meadham Kirchoff - Another crazy collection from the duo. Very carnival and disco-esque with all the glitter, feathers and tinsel.

Mary Katrantzou - The Queen of prints. Love her structural dress. Her recent collaboration with TOPSHOP was sold out immediately.

Metal-toes

After seeing the Shakuhachi gold tip and gold heel boots, I was determined to get my hands on a similar pair. I saw some similar pairs on TOPSHOP but the overall style didn’t appeal to me enough to convince me to buy them. I found these shiny metal tip boots in a boutique a couple of weeks ago. They don’t stand out as much as the gold tips I originally wanted, but I guess these are rather demure and does add a subtle, yet edgy touch to any outfit.

Metal tips and ends

(TOPSHOP tassel cardigan jacket, floral sheer blouse, tassel fringe belt, ponyskin leopard box bag, gold claw bangle; all from www.lulucherie.com)

As you can see, I am pretty obsessed with tassels and fringes. it really dresses up an outfit and makes it more edgier and quirkier, which is something I aim for when I select my outfit for the day.

Blouse and belt is coming soon on http://www.lulucherie.com.

I didn’t quite get a good close-up shot of the gold claw bracelet I’m wearing, so here’s a quick iphone/instagram shot. They are limited in stock right now. Which colour do you guys prefer?

DIY: Newspaper Nails

(…during the process of DIY newspaper nails – (without the top coat)- )

Been eager to try this out after seeing it on the Topshop blog. It’s ever so easy to do and looks great! My friends were pretty amazed that it wasn’t some kind of nail sticker.

To do this, you will need:

- Nail polish in a light shade (preferably in white)

- Clear Nail polish

- Rubbing alcohol (I’ve read that vodka works aswell, but I haven’t tried that personally)

- Small pieces of newspaper

- Small dish to pour some alcohol into

 

And just follow these steps..

1. Apply the base coat, and allow to dry.

2. Pour a little bit of rubbing alcohol in a pot or dish, and soak a small piece of newspaper in the alcohol.

3. Press the piece of newspaper on top of a nail, and gently press to allow the transfer of the print.

4. Peel back slowly.

5. Repeat this for each nail.

6. Apply a clear top coat.

And Voila! Have you guys tried this easy nail trend yet?
