I love Cara Delevinge, I love amazing clothes and I love baby animals, so this series of photoshoots by Nick Knight for SHOWstudio, collectively entitled ‘Pussycat, Pussycat’, are a dream! Inspired by “internet memes, animal GIFs and Autumn/Winter 2012’s taste for grown-up, blown-up overdressing” Cara looks stunning in various designers including Medham Kirchhoff, Prada, Rochas and Valentino, and in jewellery from Fabergé, Van Cleef and Arpels, Cartier, Solange Azagury-Partridge and Delfina Delettrez. However, these editorials are a little unorthodox as they were shot and edited using only the popular iPhone app Instagram. Check out a few of my favourite images from the six looks below and view the rest on the SHOWstudio blog. I love the way they turned out, what are your thoughts?
I’m always on the look out for cute little independent Etsy stores and Delilah Dust definitely fits the bill. Based in Scotland, Delilah Dust sells many delicate and unique jewellery pieces for every day wear, including feather, yin yang, peace and wishbone charms, at prices from £3 which are simply irristable! They were kind enough to send me a Hot Pink Howlite Sugar Skull Bracelet, which is super cute. Check out some images of my bracelet below and head over the to the Delilah Dust Etsy store to view and buy it and other products.
Here’s a look at the second item in my YourEyesLie.co.uk package, the Navo Crop Top. Normally I choose to avoid v-neck tops but I love the cut of this one and the print is so cute! The pale pink colour is ideal for summer too. Here I’ve paired it with mint green skinny jeans from Primark, a studded shoulder vintage denim jacket and Nike Air Max 90s. I’m also wearing a new ear cuff! What do you think?
I was lucky enough to be sent this Galaxy Heart Tee by YourEyesLie.com, along with some other goodies (keep your eye out for photos and reviews). I love the print and the unique slouchy shape of the t-shirt and would definitely recommend it! Here I paired it with some cross print denim shorts by MissGuided and my trusty Topshop leather biker and studded slipper flats.
I’m also wearing some amazing nude ‘Simply Bare’ moisturising tights by Charnon which I love! Although at 15 denier they’re strong and relatively warm, they’re practically invisible, it’s almost impossible to tell that they’re there at all. Additionally, Aloe Vera extracts provide moisturising properties for dry legs making them far superior in my opinion to any nude tights I’ve owned before. You can get yours at Tights Please.
You might’ve seen how impressed I was with the River Island Spring Summer 2012 when images from it were released back in February, so I’ve decided to select items from River Island’s ‘Just Arrived‘ pages to feature in my first ‘New In picks of the week’ post. All of the following items caught my eye immediately and if money was no object I’d definitely be picking them all up!
Yet another galaxy print piece, this time an asymmetric hem skirt from Romwe.com! I love both the print and shape of the skirt, definitely a great buy. With a skirt like this I prefer to keep the rest of the outfit simple to both make sure it’s not too ‘busy’ and that the skirt stands out, here I chose a black velvet bodysuit from Topshop and simple black heels.
Happy Easter everyone! What good is a holiday without some nail art to match – I decorated my fingertips with bunnies, chicks and Easter eggs today on a base of Topshop’s ‘Forget Me Not’.
I have far too many clothes! Gradually I’m having a clear out, and because I simply cannot be bothered with the hassle of ebay I’ve made a Bigcartel to sell some of my things. I’ll be adding new things all the time, including new and used clothes, shoes and accessories all at reduced prices, so keep checking back!
