Welcome Winter
White Long sleeve top from Jeans West
Brown Leather Jacket from eBay
Green “winter” print skirt from Valleygirl
Socks from Forever 21
Django and Juliette Boots from The Iconic
For some reason it is really cold for this time of year. I have been lugging a coat with cardigans underneath since last week and normally I don’t wear a coat till June.
I am not complaining- I love the cold. What better time to pull out the boots, scarves and sweaters! I love dressing up and layering in the colder months everyday is exciting fashion-wise.
So welcome Winter too bad you won’t stay for long!

Is it just me or is time moving faster? I can’t believe it is almost half-way through 2013 already. I always feel like that with life, that everything is too quick, that sometimes you don’t have time to really enjoy what’s real. And sometimes you realise this all too late.
It’s kind of like that quote from Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro -
“Maybe none of us really understand what we've lived through, or feel we've had enough time.”
Do you feel that time moves too quickly?

Seeing Red
Navy Floral Print Dress by Warehouse (available here)
Navy Cardigan by Jeans West (last year- similar here)
Dark Grey tights- eBay
Tan mary-jane heels by Hush Puppies (from Amazon)
I have been wanting to go back red for a while now but wasn’t sure about it as I find some reds clash really bad with my wardrobe. So rather than go for my usual shade or copper I opted for a vibrant red. I am really happy with the result but eventually I am hoping to go “redder”. Who ever said blondes have more fun obviously never went red!
Let me know what you think!

So much beauty in the world








“I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me, but it's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst. And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain, and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life. You have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm sure. But don't worry. You will someday.”
