THE embroidered velvet Zara dress

Image
Im so glad summer is over. I have several reasons why and Im contemplating writing about it all but for now its too raw. Instead I said to myself to forget the summer, forget the fact I haven't been able to blog for a few months and instead look forward to the future..with the future being autumn my favourite season and the fact I'm pregnant. For me this means a new wardrobe, blacks, Burgundy, velvet... you name it I want it. yes I'm obsessive like that. So much so in August I purchased my first autumn dress.. AND its still available. It could only be from one place..ZARA!! I am absolutely loving smock dresses, embroidery is still going strong and throw on some tassels and you have a winning formula. Its navy in colour with the most gorgeous floral embroidery in oranges and pinks - it definately has that 70s vibe. The first time I wore it (so far only time) I paired it with my tanned cowboy boots.. this dress definitely works well with boots as it is on ...

Rose wrap over dress from H&M

Image
This weekend was my birthday and like every girl on their birthday - you want something new to wear (any excuse!) However I was in a predicament - it was a surprise where I was going and I didn't know how to dress. Of course being Christmas and new year I had left it late to purchase an outfit. I raced to Westfield on Friday night and looked for 2 hours and left empty handed! I'm not keen on sales and everything and everywhere was ALL about sales. until I remembered a dress I had seen in H&M a week back and I think it had stayed on my brain because that was what I wanted all a long. So Saturday morning I went back and bagged the dress.   I literally love it. The rose colour, the velvety feel, the wrap front, not too tight, bow detail and bell sleeves.   For a spontaneous outfit I would have to say this was the best and I'm so glad I went for a dress as the surprise turned out to be a surprise unicorn birthday party for meeee :) Reasons...

My favourite Chokers revealed - part 3 - Stradivarius

Image
Part 3 all about chokers ...I am totally caught up on this trend and my new favourite shop just keeps on releasing more styles I love. I have recently blogged about chokers.. Twice already BUT There is nothing wrong with sharing my latest find. Again I have opted for a pack of chokers, just because one isn't enough and why have one when you can have 4 styles! The last pack I shared with you was from Stradivarius and they were mixed - black, silver, pearls and faux diamonds which have really helped me in creating so many different looks however I realised I wear so much gold and I don't have many chokers with a hint of gold. I returned to Stradivarius with a mission and yes I accomplished it. In their shops their accessories/ chokers etc are usually positioned near their tills and their Chokers are super easy to find. This particular set is looks more fierce and is black black which I absolutely love! I bought these on Saturday afternoon and I have already worn h...
