Low Maintenance

January 30th, 2008 | Category: Casual, Daytime, Fashion, Looks

I felt like going low-maintenance today, just throwing on a pair of jeans and a top and be ready with it.

So, a pair of jeans; ripped and low-ride (time for some mid-riff baring I thought) paired with a funky little cardigan in a lush green and matching slingbacks. Pink contrasts nicely with the green, so I added the tank and the handbag to give the look a hint of structure.

Although a low-maintenance day I still want to look feminine, so I added a pair of large hoops and this cool squid necklace.

Via Manzoni

January 29th, 2008 | Category: Attitude, Chic, Fashion, Fierce, Looks, New Designer, Trends

My friend Maddox Dupont tipped me off about this (new-to-me) Italian designer, the shop is called Baiastice and is probably as couture as pixels get. I picked out this fabulous feather jacket (and we all know feathers are HUGE this season) as something very representative of the designer.

A sexy animal print look today.

I started with the sexy animal print camisole and skirt and then added the black jacket to tone it down from super sexy to chic. I accessorised with black slingbacks, black pearls, golden cuffs and a sleek little handbag.

Casual Rock

January 26th, 2008 | Category: Attitude, Casual, Fashion, Funky, Looks, New Designer, Rock-Chic, Urban

I really had no intention of posting today as I like to be lazy on Saturdays. However, I went to check out this new-to-me shop, Emery, and I immediately fell for this causal yet rocky dress.

Casual RockCasual Rock

Although it’s definitely a dress, I felt for a more slouchy T-shirt kind of look and added a pair of white skinny jeans and a belt around the hips. My feet went into these pointy stilettos with the strong fuchsia providing an element of colour and picking up on the print on the dress.

Straight-Laced Booty

January 25th, 2008 | Category: Attitude, Chic, Fashion, Funky, Looks, Sexy

Here’s a little outfit I love!

Straight-Laced BootyStraight-Laced Booty

It has this delicious high-fashion feeling with the 50’s-style knicker-cut shorts, paired with the conservative high-collared blouse, which result in a super-sexy look without loosing an inch of style. To complete the look, I simply added the bright yellow pumps and bangles to accentuate the purple, and a pair of sunglasses in my hair.

Turn It Up or Down

January 24th, 2008 | Category: Attitude, Chic, Fashion, Funky, Looks, Punk-Chic, Versatility

Today I’ve been playing with this beautiful skirt and with two slightly different ways of wearing it; Turn It Up and Turn It Down.

Turn It Up

Turn It Up or DownTurn It Up or Down

This is the loud version — you’ll make a statement wearing this! The skirt is fabulously chic with its tartan texture, volume and unsymmetrical hemline. I immediately thought of a Vivianne Westwood-esque outfit so I went for something of a punk-chic effect with the equestrian themed little jacket, the ruffle blouse and scarf, and then contrasted those with the funky hair and little hat and the somewhat kinky belt and boots.

Sport-Chic

January 23rd, 2008 | Category: Casual, Daytime, Fashion, Looks, Sport-Chic, Trends

After yesterday’s excesses I needed a dose of sleek simplicity.

Sport-ChicSport-Chic

It comes in the form of this sporty-chic look that I adore — this is a look you should be seeing more of in RL fashions for the spring and summer as well. The pink jacket is what embodies the look I’m trying for with it’s clean lines and geometrical details, and to enhance the sportiness, I paired it with these white leggings and a high set ponytail. Now, as a true fashionista, I couldn’t leave off the stilettos (would I ever!) so I wore these delicate nude heels, which I think puts the “chic” into this look perfectly.

Spoiled Brat

January 22nd, 2008 | Category: Chic, Daytime, Fashion, Girlie, Looks, Sexy

Today I’ve gone completely over the top — and I really loved it! You can blame Sofia and her Gossip Girl post ! My inspiration was Blair Waldorf from that very addictive TV series — for those of you who have not yet seen it, Blair is a super rich bitch from Manhattan’s swanky Upper East side, who rules the private school she goes to.

Spoiled BratSpoiled Brat

I was aiming for the look of a sexy school girl with a serious shopping budget. I started with the little chic jacket in a rose pink and then added the short, white skirt and the low-cut camisole for that feel of sexy girlieness (white is also a big colour this winter season). I also covered up the arms in a white undershirt. Next I went with classic knee high socks and these gorgeous gorgeous chunky pumps in a pale pink, which together with the hat and scarf gave that school girl feel. To finish, I added a long strand of white pearls and a funky little clutch.

Earthy Hot…

January 21st, 2008 | Category: Attitude, Fashion, Looks, New Designer, Rock-Chic, Sexy

Here’s an earthy and hot look to get you noticed.

Earthy Hot…Earthy Hot…

The dress is one of those that really does all the work on its own. It’s sexy, well cut and well textured — I especially like the lacy texture on the skirt prims. However, there is a big drawback; the price. At 800L$ it’s perhaps stretching it a little.

Nevertheless, it’s definitely a dress I like and enjoy wearing. I paired it with a pair of knee-high brown boots, wood jewellery and super-sexy hair.

Creamy

January 20th, 2008 | Category: Chic, Fashion, Looks, Trends

Today I’ve indulged in my beloved creamy golds and gone for this understated and elegant look.

CreamyCreamy

We have a beautiful golden halter neck top with which I paired this super trendy corset belt. In order to dress down both these special pieces, I added a transparent white blouse to cover the arms and the back, and then opted for tan trousers (as opposed to a skirt) to make the look really versatile (it will take you from daytime to night-time without modification). I kept the rest of the accessories in theme with the colour scheme; stack heels in tan, white pearls and golden chains, and finally a chic little clutch.
