I have been wanting to pick up a non body con coat for quite some time now. I have a couple of winter coats that are form fitting which I do like, but it can make wearing blazers and bulky sweaters a bit difficult. So when I spied this extra long double breasted man tailored coat at Mango, I knew I had to have it.
Stella McCartney Resort 2016 for Lookbook Friday
One can see and embrace the sheer joy of textiles in Stella McCarney’s resort collection for 2016. With a vaguely nostalgic stance the garments in this line up combine the minimalist relaxed fit approach of simple streamlined cuts with generous draping and unexpected “embellishments” of sudden swaths of cloth. Balancing this more austere aesthetic are retro aline dresses, swingy tea length frocks, flowing maxis
Cynthia Rowley Beauty The Game Face Eyeshadow Palette
Happy Holidays to me, oh boy another excuse to whip out the plastic. But it is challenging to work in Soho and not shop. Last week I got together with fellow blogger Renata who took photos of me for this post. We met outside the building I work in, and decided to do a bit of window shopping before heading to dinner at The Dutch.
Burberry Resort 2016 for Lookbook Friday
Opulence, elegance and plenty of sex appeal can be found in Burberry’s Resort collection for 2016. Although hemlines are long, the silhouettes are body conscious and with many of the pieces featuring skin revealing shear looks, little is left to the imagination. A few weeks ago I came upon a British TV show about “youngish” very wealthy women.
ALDO and a Pre Black Friday Sale, Plus Cyber Monday
Yes the holiday spirit is in the air, the air is brisk, the sound of bells ringing and the streets and shops are crowded. And yup the sales are on. Black Friday has come and gone but today is Cyber Monday. I got jump start on Black Friday and just had to pop in to a store or two Wednesday evening after work.
Red Valentino Spring 2016 for Lookbook Friday
Enchanting, sexy and uber feminine Valentino’s Red line is a celebration of youth while unabashedly embracing the female form. And the collection for Spring 2016 is a playful expression of this girlie exuberance with sophisticated elements of quite elegance. Bows, tulle, satin, leather and lace used throughout the collection ground it in a textural landscape of tactile romance while delicate touches of embroidery and eyelet details lend an air of bohemian free spiritedness.
Tarte Holidaze a Fun, Chic and Glamorous Gift for the Beauty Lover in Your Life
Yes it is that time of year again. Time to brave the crowds and the cold and head to shops. I usually do my Christmas shopping through out the year as I do not like crowds and can be put off by large crowds, especially in stores. I just can not concentrate in large crowds of people. But this year I was so busy that some how time got away from me and I just didn’t manage to do my Christmas in July shopping.

Knot & Bow and a Lovely Way to Add Some Holiday Cheer to Your Gifts
Yes we are roughly six weeks away from Christmas. Are you ready? I for one am not quite up to speed. Generally at this point I have purchased most of my gifts but this year I was so busy that I did not do my usual Christmas in July shopping. But one thing I can cross off my list is gift tags. Gift tags for me are always a challenge
