Rose-Gold | Nomination Links

I'm totally in love with these rose-gold Nomination links. I currently have two bracelets where I am still filling them; one with only silver links and the other only gold. But it looks like I just won't be able to resist getting a third bracelet for pure rose-gold!

 

Love, Love, Love!

 

I love that the Nomination bracelets are not only a mere fashion accessory but it can be personalised to suit your sense of style and meaning depending   on the links you pick.

The Latest Dune Must-Have's!

Electric-blue Handbag

 

 

I'm loving the idea of a pop of colour to one's outfit for this fall. I mean just because it is winter your look certainly doesn't have to be down and dreary. That's why a bag like this is perfect for an effortless, working day:  chic look. Along, with the matching heels that also embodies the leopard print trend for this fall - Bingo! (see picture below). Get your Dune, London handbag and let your outfit shout: Wow!

 

Get Your Big Beautiful Bun {Hair}

For many of you (including myself) may feel that your hair is your crown so you would like to at least make sure that it looks it's best most of the time. Personally, I love changing up my hairstyle to either having it straightened, curled with the curling iron, leaving it in a plait to make it naturally wavy, tied-up in a messy bun and now with this new easy to use 'hair donut' making a big neat bun.

French Innocence Spring 2015 Collection | Lancôme

Smashbox | Full Exposure Palette

This palette is perfect for all eye shapes because it has both matte and shimmer shades where you can go from a fresh daywear look to an evening shine with a simple swipe of the darker shades over the eyelid and a dash of glitter to finish it off.

Marsala Fashion Trend

Marsala!

Marsala is the new IT colour for fall as we see it being worn by many celebs on the red carpet and is certainly on the list of what's trending. Marsala is a striking colour that makes a statement and can be worn alone or as an accent to bring out other colours. It is certainly a versatile colour that can be worn by both men and woman and it suitable for all skin tones.

Quirky Clutch Purse {Trend}

Let's get quirky! As much as one would think that these crazy looking clutch purses may be a bit kitsch and a complete fashion no, no! It is too much surprise, turning out to be a celeb fashion trend. It is a fun and playful way to a pull an outfit together and if you the type of person that likes to experiment with different things and take a fashion risk then this is certainly the thing for you. I love having different handbags and clutch purses to match every occasion, but this is something completely new that my wardrobe needs introducing to, and that is a visually striking quirky clutch purse. For a woman going out to a party or any formal occasion, a clutch purse becomes your best friend especially because you carry only the essentials with you that you would need right at your fingertips. So, I guess there is no crime in getting with the latest trend and spicing up your style with a  brightly beaded goldfish like the one that Blake Lively has to match her red dress or like Rita Ora's "Hold It" black and gold glittered clutch (See below). What do you think about this, is it something that would interest you or is it a trend that you would rather pass on?

Dress in Leopard Print!

Leopard print is here and it is here to stay for fall. Don't you just love this cute long-sleeve dress from Zara?

I would wear it with black stockings and a pair of ankle heel  boots or knee-high black boots.

This will make the outfit more classy and sophisticated and the perfect outfit for a night out.

Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend!

Lay 'em on a bed of pebbles.

 

Just because we live in South Africa and not in the Big Apple doesn't mean you can't have a taste of celeb fashion and style right at your front doorstep.  Unless, you happen to find yourself in the Cartier shop in Sandton - you can get these diamond encrusted screw and Cartier bracelets (see picture above) from Johannesburg Couture (more details below). I mean with the amount of bracelets Kylie Jenner has on her arm - you could probably buy a new BMW 1-series or go on an overseas trip to the Maldives for 2 weeks but having one Cartier bracelet for now still sounds good to me.

Big Floppy Hat {Trend}

 

 

Fall, is all about the 'Big Hat' trend. It is an easy accessory that can simply add to your outfit and will definitely turn it from drab to fab in no time! I love that big hats is no longer just a thing of summer but is multi-purpose and can be worn in winter too.

Seven Days in a Week {Motivation}

 

"There are seven days in the week and someday isn't one of them"

 

If you want something in life, go get it - sitting around hoping that someday something will happen is when it will not happen. If I walk into the shops, there is no better motivator for me than to be the best that I can be at something that I love because even though I could buy the latest trends and fashion's greatest nothing comes easy unless you learn to work for it. If you find something that you passionate about then there is no other road than the path to succeed.

Leopard Print {Trend}

 

[Leopard Print] certainly seems to be the 'must-have' trend for this winter because no matter the store you go into, there is always something to be found in leopard print. Which is definitely not a bad thing for me because I love leopard print as a statement piece to any outfit. I found this jacket at Zara for R1 599 that is similar to that of the one from Forever New. Decisions, decisions, decisions .....

What leopard print coat would you go for, the one from Forever New (see link below) or this one from Zara?

Leopard Print {Clutch}

 

Leopard Print Clutch Bag R 559 (Zara)

Dazzling Darling!

     

The Leopard Print Jacket is something that you can buy now and keep forever. I think that this outfit is perfect for a romantic dinner date at a more fancy restuarant. I would recommend Maximillien, Pigalle, The Maslow or Signature (all surrounding the Sandton area). To complete the outfit I would wear a plain black camisol underneath the jacket since it is already quite detailed so let that do all the talking.

Shop the entire outfit at Forever New:

Rosemary Leopard Faux Fur Jacket.

Kitty Point Court Heels.

Laurina Twist Lock Bag.

Kaite Leather Look Pull on Pants.

50 Shades of Brown. I think a brown lip colour would definitely complete the outfit as it gives it a warm and sophisticated look. I would probably wear the fourth one with this outfit but in general I could do with the third one too. How about you? Which MAC lipstick would you pick as your favourite colour?

Coca-Cola {Limited Edition}

Let's get back to basics - How awesome are these limited edition red aliminium Coca-Cola bottles to celebrate their 100th Year Anniversary. Although, it is just Coke I think I will just get one anyway just because the bottle looks cool and its limited edition of course. Don't miss out and get yours too.
