Relaxed

I have recently jumped on the relaxed-pants bandwagon. Due to my vertically challenged frame, I always thought relax fitted pants would look like pyjammas on me, they probably do, but just humour me.

I am especially loving all the printed ones I'm currently seeing at the moment. They not only come in amazing graphic prints, but also fun colours. However, one can never go wrong with black white. Take these French Connection ones I'm wearing, they are so versatile, you can dress them down with flats or sandals, or take them to night with heels. The fabric is also quite light and I can definitely see them being worn during the warmer months.

But because I love a good clashing print, I just couldn't stay away from wearing them with this Sass & Bide chevron harness.

Happy Hump Day!

Pink & Red

Only recently have I really been noticing the colour red. While I have never been afraid of a little colour (and by little I mean A LOT!), I have never really been attracted to it. The only time I pined for anything red was for a Balenciaga bag in Coquelicot (Poppy Flowers in French). To be honest I love about 90% of any colour Balenciaga comes out with, probably due to their amazing leather, but I digress.

Lately though, I have been dabbling in incorporating red into my wardrobe. It also didn't help that I won an amazing bright red Givenchy Antigona clutch. I mean I love that thing so much that it swayed me towards the colour a lot more faster than it normally would.

Ever since I saw Emma Stone in that red and pink Giambattista Valli ensemble, I haven't been able to get it out of my head. For some reason growing up I didn't think the two colour would be a great match, outfit wise. I just felt that too much saccharine colours in one outfit would just be over the top. But Giambattista did it with such finesse and elegance that it's actually a very fascinating combo.

While this outfit isn't as fascinating as Emma Stones, the chandelier pink necklace and red shoes were inspired by it. Colours I would never think to pair together.

Pastel Gladiator

This outfit makes me want Spring to come sooner!

I got these knee high gladiator boots over 6 years ago and I have never had to heart to get rid of them even though I've only really worn them a handful of times. I also had a nude pair that I sold on (which I now regret as I can't locate them anywhere for the price I want to pay!). I must admit that I don't think they look that great on me and my vertically challenged legs, but I love them so much that I'm going to look the other way and just wear them anyways.

Recently Stuart Weitzman came out with a similar pair and I am just so happy that I never got rid of these. It's true when they say fashion recycles!

 Have a bangin' weekend!

Reef Print

To say that I've always wanted this Josh Goot reef print vest is an understatement. Did I ache for it? Maybe (ok yes, very badly!). To be honest, I would have given up my furry friends for it! Poor things!

Even though it's older season, and everyone has seen it and is probably sick of it by now, this to me just cements the fact that I wasn't just crushing on it at the time. I love it so much that I know I will be rocking this for years to come (and not just the fact that I take 5 seconds of my mornings while getting dressed, to take it out, sit down and pat it and marvel at how beautiful it is), cue insane music. Is it also weird that it calms me and makes me happy?

Unfortunately I do not have the financial freedom to always have the latest IT items. Im a true shop-a-holic at heart and I also love fashion in general, so there will always be things I'll covet, but it's like picking your battles, you can't always win/have them all.

Remember to never let the things you want, make you forget the things you have.
