One match






























All Zara

Hi, sorry for the lack of posts in the past two weeks. Since I got back to London I have been extremely busy with uni work, unbelievable yet believable! So last weekend and the one before that, I finally took some time out for myself and did a little bit of shopping, no major damage to my bank balance fortunately. Here's a little outfit I wore on Monday to uni. Usually I'm not very into the 'matchy' trend, wearing a top that is similar pattern to your bottom but this one seems to be an exception, maybe because of the gradual dye change from top to bottom...

Have a lovely weekend,

Acne vs H&M




























Just a very quick post on a shocking discovery when I walked past the Stratford mall (typical) today... So as I walked past the H&M store, I spotted a very Acne-like blazer... a replication that looks almost 70% like the original designer version Rumi from Fashion Toast wore. Of course, how can I resist on such a good replication. This jacket has already been added to my shopping list. I will see you soon in my wardrobe, 'Acne' blazer...

Have a good night! xx

Think Sport.




















































Cos shirt
River Island sport trousers
Asos heels


So I'm still in Scotland... This is a quick post on what I wore before I left London. I've been really into the sport trend so here is the first experiment. More improvements to follow! For the past week I have been living the easy life with no work, no university and with no advanced plannings. Everything was planned more or less last minute! Even though I was coming home to visit my family and friends but because of the mood I was in, it felt like a holiday, or that I'm just very easily satisfied!

I'm back in London again on Monday, I feel that a catch up on the trends and discoveries of good buys in store is in need so I will be posting a lot on these topics. One last thing, I have finally got a facebook page for this blog and you can see it here.

Have a happy easter!

A day in Greenwich







 Cos dress
Zara heels


I am back in Scotland again, or more like, finally! So I am here for a week during my Easter break and I have been so excited to be back since weeks ago however there are two let downs... the first one being that after two sunny weeks in London, Scotland welcomed me today with snow, and the second one being that during the time that I am back I cannot drive.

Back to the photos, these photos were taken when my friend Chloe and I spent a day in Greenwich to relax ourselves and the beautiful views there definitely did their good job. We didn't get to stay for long during the day time hence the missed opportunity of taking some nice scenery snaps in Greenwich. Even though I am back in Scotland for my 'break', I had somehow scheduled myself to work on the blog during the journey home. So far, I have set up a facebook page for the blog and you can see the link here. More updates on my further blog improvement progress...

Have a happy easter

Nicole Farhi SS12 collection











Lately I have gotten so into the Nicole Farhi S/S 12 collection. I used to consider the brand as being too mature for myself and the younger age group but I guess I was wrong. For the S/S collection, the designer brand has introduced, or more or less like the other brands, adopted the pastel colour. The creamy yellow top is my favourite, not to mention the perfect cutting on the neck and the sleeves, indeed a perfect combination with the pure white shorts and sandals.

Speaking about the white shorts, I have been looking for a version like them on the high street for a very long time and as devastating to say, I still haven't been able to find one similar. The same case with the white sandals, luckily last year I was able to pick up a pair of almost similar version of these white sandals but only in black, from Zara. Needless to say, the white pair is of course much better looking and appropriate for the summer... So if anyone of you lovely people see it on any websites or in shops, please let me know! Per favore!

LFW: Part 2







So 'Part 2'. Here are some pictures I took from the Topshop A/W 12 showroom and the international showrooms held at the Somerset house during LFW. When I saw those sunglasses organised neatly on the wall at the Topshop showroom, I knew exactly what has got to be done... Start collecting eye candys (sunglasses)!

LFW: Part 1





























Zara heels
Zara cardigan


This is just a quick post of what I wore to the Lako Bukia fashion show. Of course, also to show you my new/old bag. Why? It's new because it's a new purchase and it's old because I have already had this bag before and due to a slight accident, I had to buy this bag again. Even though both times it costed me 80 pounds, still, it feels like one of those things I cannot live without. I remember how before I bought the bag for the second time, my heart twisted inside every time I see people on the tube with this bag.

At the end, my friend and I spotted an electrical car on the street and waiting to be charged, how interesting.

More on the LFW, pictures from the Lako Bukia show coming up! Stay in touch!
