The perfect simple look to go anywhere in, or you could add acessories or a colourful pair of shoes to add vibrance to the look. I've currently got a strong desire to find the perfect black dress, hence this being one of two posts on the 'perfect black dress'. Doesn't the above woman look like Minnie Mouse? I think it's her shoes. :)

Have A Great Sunday

Source: amadnesscollective

Sunday's are always the day that create toxic thoughts of, "I'm changing as a person next week", your batteries are charged and your in the mood to get your life on track; stop procrastinating about nearly everything, talk to that person you've been so eager to talk to and more importantly, become the well rounded person you've always wanted to be, and then Monday rolls up, and your alarm shatters that perfect euphoria of sleep; and it suddenly dawns on you that there aren't enough hours in the week, or even in the day to become that all rounded, perfect you you've always wanted to be; so you unnervingly shudder off the feeling of déjà vu and instantaneously, almost habitually turn off your alarm, readjust your cocoon style position and smugly sleep right through your 9am lecture on the UK Town and Country Planning Act: the start of a brand new week.

I must state the above anecdote does not relate to me personally, my friends are too inspirational to keep me motivated, and my course is too demanding to afford to procrastinate, though I do enjoy procrastinating on small things -it's fun in the moment, though the long term consequences make it precautionary. Most my Sundays' do feel like that, and I never quite fulfill everything I wanted to do during the week. Sunday is my music, unwind day! :)

Oh la la...

Vahina Giocante looking amazing as always alongside Liya Kebede dressed casually. Winter is the season for grey, velvet and unfortunately fur, and I've always been a Stella McCartney fan, hence the last two images. I'm not one to celebrate halloween, and to be honest never have been, but I do enjoy the halloween spirit that touches down on everyone. I really liked what fashion toast wore last year, which was as her own DIY princess from the never ending story, very out of the box.

Image

I've had this image stored on my laptop for ages, and have never had any reason to post it. I can't begin to express my love for this image, I could go on and on, but I thought I'd share it and finally relieve my laptop of the memory. I'm not sure where the image is from, but I'm pretty sure it was taken from rackk and ruin's blog.

Don't underestimate me

I'm not one for wearing shirts, and I actually think it's rare to see young people wearing shirts, but the above Gap campaign, in the centre, and Alexa Chung, on the right, have really made me want to attempt the look. I also had to add the campaign image of Liya Kebede, one of my all time favourite models, for J.Crew. I think she looks amazing in the campaign and I would probably feel a huge urge to buy that blazer or at least find it, if I was in the store.

I don't know if it's age or just me changing, but I now get drawn to simplicity and the power of wearing less to create a statement rather than wearing more and I don't mean walking around semi-naked; more like when you see someone wearing something like a trench coat or a shirt, and your somehow unexplainably drawn to the look.
