The oversized Scarf

30/5/2015

0 Comments

 
The over sized scarf is great for adding colour, texture and interest to a look. I prefer the ones with a high wool content as they can really double up as a warmth layer. Check out my Other Tricks page for 16 different ways to style a scarf.

Tote bags

23/5/2015

When I was looking at this style of bag I was curious to know what the definition of a Tote bag was? Wikipedia describes it as; "A tote bag is a large and often unfastened bag with parallel handles that emerge from the sides of its pouch", or simply put a large bag with double handles and an open top. They are also referred to as Shoppers.

There are lots of black Totes/Shoppers around but I wanted to show you some variations on the more traditional, as well as different price points, enjoy!

Mi Paici Paros Tote $360.00, NEXT leather shopper $102.00, Trenery post felt shopper $169.00.

Tick tock, tick tock...

I recently saw a lovely watch on a girlfriend, it had a faded denim strap and simple white face, but it got me thinking that I would love a new watch, even though I do own three!

I am not a traditionalist when it comes to watches. What I mean is that I don't just favor a round face, a simple link or a leather strap. One watch I own has a square flower background face and yellow leather strap, another is a sports watch and the other is more a timeless classic, round face and silver and gold strap. 

So on my search I have not necessarily gone for the traditional, some are a bit quirky, and some more traditional, with different styles, colours and price ranges, enjoy!

From top left to right; ASOS Kate Spade Gramercy Dot mixed metal $480.22, The Iconic DKNY Tompkins AU$179.00, ASOS Olivia Burton Bee tan leather strap midi dial $138.73, The Iconic Fossil AU$179.00, Michael Hill black ceramic & stainless steel crystals currently $325.00, Witchery Esme Metal case watch black $109.90.

Last minute Mothers Day hints!

9/5/2015

As I mentioned last week, in my Accessories post 'Mothers Day Gift ideas', you sometimes need to drop hints or leave subtle suggestions to receive gifts on Mothers Day, and you also need to remember that special person who bought you into the world, your mother! So here are a few more gorgeous accessories that I have seen around the shops.

I love scarfs as they keep me warm and add colour to an outfit, and if worn loose and long can elongate your torso. I also find I am increasing my belt collection to add definition to my waist. Try using a loose belt like the ASOS one to tie over a cardi or blanket wrap this winter.
