Something to look forward to.

I'm completely in love with Jason Wu's s/s collection and the beautiful images taken by From Me To You fashion tumblr. The looks celebrate elegance and feminine beauty with their delicate detail and soft statement pieces. I had a peek at Sandro's s/s collection and the above look really stood out for me but can you tell why? I like the back part of course. It turns the what-could-be a plain and dull dress into a dress that states: 'I want to remain refined and yet be elegant'.

This song is beautiful: Lhasa de Sela - Love Came Here.

The Woman.

The woman: men don't know why they want to devote all their time to understanding her; boys don't know why she intimidates them; and girls don't know why they don't get the same kind of attention she gets from men.

Food for thought: The difference between women and girls by Barretta.

So seductive.

The blog post title is particularly in reference to the bottom two images. You should look at the bottom two images whilst listening to this. ;)

There is snow everywhere and I went outside wearing a skirt (with tights of course!) and a jumper -snow brings out my child-like side.

If you want to laugh over something short and pointless you have to watch Ken's dating tips (Ken being Barbie's admirer: yes, the Ken doll).

I do like the finer things in life but I could never take them for granted.

A bag equivalent to the price of a house is ridiculous!

Brad Pitt uttered those very words and said that peace is what we should be striving for.

My view is that happiness is a fleeting emotion that is over-glorified. Call me a cynic but this over-glorified emotion works wonders for consumerism. On the right-hand side of my blog I've added a beautiful quote by Arthur Schopenhauer who, according to Alain De Botton, is one of the greatest pessimists in the history of philosophy. I think the quote helps bring a sense of clarity (or reality) to the fashion element of my blog.

I'll now leave you to ponder on Brad Pitt's words and absorb Schopenhauer's words.

How to look chic in one look.

The perfect look: a navy blue blazer and a gold metallic skirt.

There was no denying it: the man was en vogue.

I really like this collection by Wooyoungmi. The orange trousers with the blue jumper is a great look! It's not the first collection that has made me want orange trousers.

The woman in the black and white picture is Jean Shrimpton.
