Days Off



I usually have Fridays and Saturdays off, which is basically my weekend, but this week I only have today (Saturday) off and on my to do list was to sleep in and get a massage. Mind you, my idea of a sleep in is waking up at 7am or 8am, blame my body clock. Plus I feel like it's such a waste of morning if I wake up later than 9am, I love being a morning person, everything seems so much fresher in the morning. The feeling is even better when you know you don't have to do anything.

Enjoy the weekend!

Marant




I know the twisted body-con skirt has had it's time in the limelight and probably now needs to retire, but while I love a good trend, there are times when they are keepers, like this Isabel Marant Etoile twisted skirt for example.

I purchased this at Barney's last year while I was in San Francisco. It's a dark grey marle and the material is just beyond amazing and it twists in the right areas just perfectly.

It's only a trend if you let it, but if you love something, I think you can find a way to make it a forever piece in your wardrobe.

Creature Comfort




I'm at a point in my life where comfort now means everything. 

No matter how much I like a piece of clothing, if it's not comfortable, I won't bother with it. 

Growing up, you read people in magazines say that as long as you're comfortable in what you wear you will exude confidence and sexiness.

This outfit is case in point, ok maybe not the sexiness part and the confidence part is partially true in that I am pretty confident that a nip slip or accidentally flashing my undies isn't likely with this outfit. 

Those are my two biggest fears and thank god only one of them has happened...that I am aware of. 

In fact it borderlines what a homeless person might wear, or in my case, comfy enough to emulate my "house clothes", which consist of old tatty and oversized clothing. 

But I'm sticking with it no matter how homeless I look.

Sharks and Giraffes


It's no secret that I love animals and when I see cute animals prints on clothing, it's very hard to resist. So when I stumbled upon these giraffe print shorts for $19.95, it just seemed blasphemous not to get them (a shopaholics reasoning for everything!). Plus who wouldn't love these Luv AJ Shark tooth pieces? They're simple yet they give enough edge to any outfit, which is what I'm always on the lookout for when it comes to accessories.

The shorts are super comfy and light, and with the ridiculous Spring heatwave we've been having, I mean, did Spring ask Summer to fill in for it's seasonal shift? Cos frankly, I find it a bit rude! I already miss the colder months. 

Even though I whinge about the summer and how gross and sticky it is, I do love all the cute things you are able to wear during the warmer months. When else can wear your bikini top as undergarment and pretend this is the look you were going for, when in reality, you have just been too lazy to do laundry.

Painted


This is my ideal take on the denim on denim phenomena, clear distinctions on both items of denim.

While denim on denim can look nice on some, I think it looks a little harsh and overwhelming on me. How awesome are these One Teaspoon Poison Outlaw shorts? These shorts are meant to be quite long but I've folded them up for a different look. I just love the colour on them making them perfect for the coming warmer months. Not to mention they're so baggy, airy and comfortable!

Excuse the Paddle Pop Lion hair, this gale force winds we've been experiencing decided it would re-style my hair for me.

Trucker



 Ok I have an unhealthy obsession with extremely distressed denim. The brand One Teaspoon has excited me with their denim since they came out with the extremely low-rise distressed denim skirts with lace/broderie anglais detailing acting as sort of like a petticoat. As an 18yr old back then, it was the one thing I coveted but could never afford. I remember each time my mum took me to our local mall, I'd always asked if we could stop by General Pants just so I could see them and touch them. I never ended up getting one, but the frugal fiend inside me had bought a similar looking denim skirt and went to the local fabric store and attached lace to my denim skirts. It was the closest thing I would have ever come to owning one.

To this day, One Teaspoon is still as amazing as ever and possibly excites me more than it ever did. No one beats their distressed and edgy denim at such affordable price points. With non-chalant fashion trends these days, you can see the most trashed denim get paired with heels for a semi-dressed up look. All I know is that I'm on board! 

Any Tom, Dick, Jane and Sarah can get dolled up and put on their best LBD and heels, but what really excites me is when I see someone in an ensemble that makes you re-think how you can wear a specific item in your wardrobe. Alexander Wang put it best when he was quoted saying "Anyone can get dressed up and glamorous, but it is how people dress in their days off that are most intriguing". 

I could not agree more!
