Party Season - Dear Santa
Dear Santa,
I've been ever so good this year. Please climb down the chimney and bring me a nice pressie as my reward.
Thanks x x
P.S. I really really want Sass and Bide Black Rats leggings :-)
Originally created as a styling feature for the sass and bide spring 09 show, the hype that followed finally pushed them into production. Every celebrity and her sister has one of these ruched beauties. Asos got some in stock this week and they are selling for £97 (for leggings!) so if you've got the cash, i suggest you head over to the site before they sell out.
Great with: Tunics, oversized t-shirts, boyfriend cut blazers and razor sharp heels.

Party Season - Rejuvenate with a Brooch
Wilbur & Gussie Charlie envelope clutch
A juicy selection of brooches.....
Cream Fabric Flower Corsage from Miss Selfridge
Topshop vintage brooch ring...it's a ring but could double up as a pendant on a long chain.
I hope this has given you, the readers, some inspiration and ideas for your outfits this season. Take care and have a great weekend.

My favourite style stars this week...
The detailing on Blake's dress is gorgeous! Don't think I'd go with pointy covered shoes though.
I can't decide if SJP's dress is chic or dowdy.
Have a great weekend x x

A quick note on Zoe
I just came across this picture while doing my rounds online and just had to share. I love Zoe Kravitz style but I've never got round to posting about her.
I love the way she accessorised this Matthew Williamson pink dress...it's just the shade of pink i can cope with. I think the sparkly multi-color jacket compliments the dress quite nicely the orange clutch adds the right contrast and the shoes are nice too.
With daddy and mummy's rock and style credentials, how could she not be so uber-cool!

Yay or Nay
Nicole Richie in a floral gown by Dsquared and a shrunken leather jacket. I have mixed feelings about this one. One minute I love it, the next I don't.

Everything I Can't Have
So what have i been up to, i hear you ask. Mostly job-hunting which is proving quite difficult in the midst of the credit-crunch plus the obstacle of not being a British citizen (boo!). I'm also about to finish up a short course in bag making at Central Saint Martins - it's been fun to get an insight into how much time the design and construction of a bag can take. I discovered that my talents lie in designing and NOT sewing and construction,
lol! I might give you guys a little preview of my work if I'm not too embarrassed :-)I got to go to Robin Thicke's show in London's Shepard's bush empire 2 weekends ago. He's one of my favourite artists and I'm so happy that he came over to the UK especially since he is not as well known over here (I'm pretty lucky with that - i got to see John Mayer this summer too which was the most amazing experience) .
Paul Smith has never really been on my fashion radar but this Chiffon bow blouse is enough to catch my attention. You'll be guaranteed to get noticed in this sexy red number and its just in time for the Xmas party season too.
I think I'm in love with an inanimate object! As we know, fringe detail and deep purples are all the rage this Autumn/Winter. It also comes in black which is also TDF.
I have the perfect pretty dress that just needs a little edge and I know this Botkier Fringed Morgan Satchel bag is IT!Alexander Wang is shaping up to be one of my favourite designers this year and its no surprise with this Herringbone Jacket from the collection. Classic herringbone with contrast collar and edgy exposed zipper pockets. What I love the most about this jacket are the three quarter length sleeves and the length of the jacket.
Lurrrrve these! Wrinkled cotton dress with pleats at the waist and ruched shoulders by Charlotte Ronson. Worn here by Joy Bryant (one of my celeb style faves), this ticks two boxes for me - effortless and on trend (plaid). Like the laid back accessorising too.
That's it for now. I hope i'll be back again soon - i'm not gonna bother promising again :-)
P.S. IF YOU ARE AN AMERICAN CITIZEN, MAKE SURE YOU EXCERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE! TAKE A MAGAZINE WITH YOU AND QUEUE FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES. LOL!
