marchesa

So trends this summer, we have the colour hype, midi skirts and prints. One trend that has stayed on from fall last year is of course lace. With the ability to translate into so many different looks and styles, it's versatility is still on a high and looking good this season.
One designer I wanted to start with is Marchesa. Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig's work as you can see below is absolutely exquisite, when I first saw it, it reminded me of a collection of Gaultier's which year I can't remember for the life of me. When designers can play with that delicate structured look and make it flow is something I love to look for and they have done it perfectly. The body jewellery is beautiful as well, more affordable version for me please?










blog prep on the go.

More posts coming up, in the meantime, never did I think I'd be into a lot of colour. Then I saw the cutest Marc By Marc Jacobs "Simone" striped mini dress...

A perfect summer piece.
Okay so it's not a lot of colour but it is for a girl whose wardrobe pretty has a dominance of black grey and maroon.

Citizens of Humanity

So it wasn't as soon as I would've liked, but with my uni deadline done and dusted I can get to blogging away.
Now I'm not usually a girl who tends to wear jeans but working in a place where I'm surrounded by them and tried a few on I've become a little attached of Citizens of Humanity.
This season's collection is pretty awesome too, I'm considering purchasing a pair or two once pay day comes, the white shorts seen at the bottom are on the wish list.
If you're looking for a good pair of jeans definitely give this brand a try, their skinny's are amazing.
