AMEN

 

 

 

I mentioned about my DIY denim jacket in my older post before, well this is the jacket. It certainly can do with a bit more studs. I want to stud the whole or most of the back when I finally have some free time and can find some nice studs.

So this is just another casual outfit. The black tassle bag somewhat goes well with my jacket with all the baby studs on the tassle pieces. I also DIY bleached the denim shorts a while back. These have become a staple piece for my summer wardrobe.

Wearing oversized shades which you can get here.

I was reluctant to go out last weekend as I was pretty occupied with some stuff, but was persuaded by a few friends in the end. So I quickly put together this outfit; something quick, but not necessary easy to wear. Don’t get me wrong, when it comes to leotards, I love them. I love the way they look; how they add a touch of sports glam and 80s rave to an outfit without over doing it.

I bought the leotard and skirt both from H&M a couple of weeks ago. The leotard was actually on sale, so I couldn’t resist and picked it up for only approx. £5? Worn with some random jewellery; some also from H&M. I love the ring/finger detail of this bag, very Mcqueen-esque.

You can get the belt here and the earrings here. I will be hosting another giveaway soon, so watch this space.

Colour Block

I’ve never been a big fan of colour blocking but I purchased these blue palazzo pants a couple of weeks ago, I finally decided to put these on for a casual brunch. All my graphic Ts didn’t seem to go well with the palazzos, so I ended up wearing this orange scallop-cut top I picked up at a vintage store. I added a belt and wore my thick lace-up platforms, (I’ll post a close up picture of the wedges in my next post). I decided to use my current favourite bag. This bag is amazing, I hate bags where you can only fit a couple of things in. Surprisingly you can fit a reasonable amount in this, despite it being an “envelope” bag.

The cat sunglasses and belt is available here and here.

Wildfox Swimwear 2012

Wildfox is making swimwear, these little pieces are to die for! Staying true to their vintage inspired brand, they still manage to keep a cool and edgy look to them.

The collection really stays true to their vintage inspired brand image.

Not only I love the suits I’m also loving the Australian–based, Russian model Anja Konstantinova; she really depicts the whole free American girl on a road trip mood well.
