I would argue that beauty comes from a love of life.

I would also argue that beauty comes from being everything you can be without being somebody else: "One tree by itself never calls for admiration when the whole forest rises to the same height." -Seneca, Letters to a Stoic.

Every girl's fashion dream is to collect all the best fashion pieces to create the perfect wardrobe.

Fashion is like art: subjective, constantly changing and sometimes timeless.

Some men don't even need to try.

Weekend!

Shoes!!

I really like the red jumpsuit the above woman is wearing; partly because of how bold the colour is but also because of the fit.

Dark looks.

Top: Karla's Closet, Vanessa Jackman. Bottom: 5 inch and up, Vanessa Jackman.

Wow, I'm in awe of these amazing dark looks: definitely inspiring!

Light looks.

The obvious theme in this post is looks in white which is the opposite to the safe bet and largely flattering colour of black. I think Caggie Dunlop, Rumi (aka Fashiontoast) and blogger 5 inch and up all pull of their predominately white looks perfectly, and I would say: dare to be different and wear white in autumn and winter.

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

My look at the moment: the laid-back look.

How feminine are you?

She met two women with different styles: they both made her reflect on her own style.

There was one question that kept resurfacing: was her style too feminine or not feminine enough?

This song is utterly sublime.

Great songs: Frank Ocean - Thinking About You and Van She - Kelly (M83 remix).

I want!

It's by Zara!

There's no stopping us.

The top image is from Pull and Bear's October 2011 lookbook which you should check out! :)

The two bottom looks are taken from See by Chloe's Winter 2011-12 collection. The leather gloves, which I think would look great with the two looks, are by Carin Wester.

I'm loving this song at the moment: SBTRKT - Wildfire

It's not enough to want her.

Maybe it's because my life for the past few months has mainly consisted of dull colours but I like everything pictured above and I can't wait to have a glamorous, spontaneous fun night out: my life is just a bit too serious for my age! But, I guess it's all in preparation for landing the career job: the job that defines you, makes you or breaks you...

The nature of the game.

Diane Kruger, pictured in the top three images, has her own sense of style which makes her looks appear individualistic and yet I like how she always goes for practical looks. The streetstyle image on the bottom left and the look on the bottom right, which is by Whistles, are perfect chic a/w evening looks.

I learnt something interesting today which is worthy of sharing: thoughts sow actions; actions sow habits; habits sow character and character sows life.
