candy lane

Posted on June 25th, 2011

(Thrifted Top/Cardigan, Cameo Skirt, Asos Boots, Vintage Bag/Necklace/Sunglasses) You know the feeling where you feel like you're being pulled in a hundred different ways and you wish you could be in all of those places at once? Well things have been like this lately, but it's definitely a good thing and I am counting my blessings. I know every week I always go on about how busy work is etc etc but the past two weeks have been a little insane. I'm still struggling to divide my time efficiently between my blog, running the store, uploading stock consistently and being in Sydney for events or showings, but with so much news to share with you all this week I'm hoping to pull it together! I just got home from a short stay in Sydney where I hosted a "Style Off" for Pedestrian TVand LG but I'll fill you in on that later once I catch my breath.For now, here's a little weekend inspiration full of everything I'm loving at the moment - mixing bright pops of colour, fishtail skirts/dresses, winter ankle boots you can't decide if you like wearing more during the day or night, beautiful sunny days that would make you think it's Spring and stumbling across painted lanes that remind you of candy popcorn or pastel painted doll houses. Come to think of it I really hope a bag of candy popcorn magically appears in my pantry right now. Mmmm..

lakeside

Posted on June 23rd, 2011

(Vintage Top/Skirt/Cardigan/Bag/Pendants, Miu Miu Heels) If I owned some fancy lakeside house I would imagine my outfit would look something like this. Long skirts to catch the breeze, little crop tops to soak in the sun when it gets too warm and an oversized cardigan that is so easy to curl up in when the sun starts to set. Kind of exactly what I did the other day except I didn't own the lakeside house (still working on that part). I don't know if it's the lack of sleep I've had lately or the fact I'm purely in denial about the weather but little cropped singlets and a slight bit of "torsodriff" (I would like to think this is more tasteful than the midriff with ones exposed bellybutton) are working their way back into my wardrobe, or should I say winter wardrobe? Yes it doesn't make any sense to me either and I'm still yet to find that perfect cropped singlet I know exists out there somewhere. I just have to find it first - Isn't that always the way? Loving white on white after seeing the the Dolce and Gabbana SS 11 collection but even more obsessed with this cocoon cardigan I can't stop wearing. It's that perfect length to create that shaggy chic look when styled with pretty much anything. Well, anything besides a non-existent lakeside house..
