a macaroon amaze.

A treasured day off = my new Asos 'Amaze' shoes arrived... 

way ahead of schedule and I am amazed. 

Vaguely reminiscent of the Alexander Wang Constance boots mixed up with Karl Lagerfeld's Chanel vision in 2010 with the whole perspex and iceberg ensemble, that will remain forever embedded in my memory. 

Now for my first attempt at making the French fancy- macaroons. I now have Lorraine Pascale's recipe, along with a specialist book and crossed fingers.

 If they are successful I promise photos to follow.

red.

Recently purchased acne jumper.. that works just as well when reversed and thrown on as a cardi.. coat/ all round wardrobe essential. I couldn't resist it's knockout shade of orangey red. Sure you will be seeing lots of it in the coming months. 
Today it's my brothers birthday so HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!xx

throw on.

The sort of thing I throw on for a walk by the sea or for wearing around the house. I can guarantee this army jacket usually makes an appearance, and a good pair of low heeled boots. This new pair of 70's blue denims really aren't being worn how I intend, but I wanted to try them out. Excuse the seriously tired face! 

What do you wear in the house / out for a walk?

shelter at station road.

Seeking shelter from the absolute downpour that hit without warning, camouflaging into the bridge's underbelly...completely unintentional and pretty funny too.  

Switching from continual boot wearing to my favourite cranberry pumps, breaking out the Topshop Jamie jeans way too often, and putting my new topshop fur collar to use - It was made for this suede jacket.


Wishing you all a sexy Valentines day!

Seeking shelter from the rain. Call back tomorrow morning for the full outfit. Katie.x

silver sands.

Almost head to toe in navy blue. One of my absolute favourite shades, and the reason why around a year ago I knew the navy A.Wang bag had been planted just for me.

I also made a point of wearing my silver cuffs- purchased way back in the autumn, deserving some blog spotlight. 

Another note- i am still crazy for the fit of Topshops Jamie super skinny jeans, now all I have to do is select another colour- i'm fancying the 70's blue shade but any ideas welcome?

around.

Looking for an excuse to try out my new glasses. After falling for the Cacharel s/s 2011 beauties, I got way too excited upon finding this asos pair. Similar shade frames and shape minus the yellow tinted lenses. 

Looking forward to wearing them with bright pink lips and simple white everything.

Hope you have all had a fun weekend? Katie.X

colour blocked collections s/s 2011 pt2.

The second installment of the Colour Blocked Collections Posts.

A more subtle palette of classic tones when worn together, also the perfect base for an
 insertion of colour seen in the first catwalk collage post here.

I am so inspired with an overdose of beautiful clothes for this spring/summer.

What are your favourite looks / colours?
