Oh hey. So now that I'm on holidaaays (finally!) I plan to post more often..  Don't hold me to it though!

Yes my beautiful amazing favourite new shoes arrived!! Jeffrey Campbell Harlock Sandal via Nasty Gal. I love love love! Paired with these vintage Calvin Kleins and a dark blue jumper it was just enough to make them stand out, and help me battle the freeezing Canberra weather!

Winter Denial

 1. Stella McCartney Bonnie Sizzling Bra 2. ZARA Large Shopper 3. Cynthia Rowley Metallic Crew Neck Tee 4. Jeffrey Campbell Harlock Sandal 5. Floral Russian Doll Print Bomber Jacket 6. Michael Kors Cream & Gold Chronograph Watch 7. MAC Plush Lash Mascara 8. Ecoya Sorrento Jar 9. Stella McCartney Bonnie Sizzling Thong 10. ZARA Culotte Shorts

Just a little something I did to kill my boredom! Im still not ready to give up on shorts and skirts, no matter how cold it is. Kinda reflects the colour palette and style I am going for this winter. Basically I am digging black, grey and white basics, with feature pieces such as the metallic shirt or printed jacket. I'm also loving leather, and cut out shoes/sandals.

Speaking of sandals I am in LOVE those Jeffrey Campbell Harlock's!! I have been frothing over them for what feels like forever, and literally can not wait until mine arrive in a few days ! (I mean I'm not excited or anything...)

Also featured on there are some items from my wishlist, namely - the Michael Kors watch, Stella McCartney Bonnie Lingerie, Ecoya Candle, a Leather Tote Bag...

I am also desperately in search of that perfect bomber jacket for winter! Something unique, but versatile. And not too thin and tacky.

Oh and go follow me on Bloglovin, Twitter (I still don't fully understand how to use it but w/eva!), and Instagram for all the latest updates! And because I have no friends. Joking. But seriously do it.

I know I know I'm sorry I haven't posted in forever! Assignments and exams are destroying me at the moment but I promise I'll do better next time... 

One trend I cannot get enough of at the moment is metallic colours and prints! Particularly textured materials. Most of what we are seeing at the moment on the runways and in collections is silver and bronze, with the occasional splash of green or pink, and I love it. Its smooth, shiny, and different; edgy yet refined.  

Above are some fantastic Aussie labels embracing this trend in their current Winter 2013 Collections - August Street, Evil Twin, Mossman, Staple the Label and Shakuhachi. I can't wait to get my hands on some of these for winter!! Pair it with some fierce black leather and its a match made in heaven xoxoxoxoxo

In particular I'm crushing on ....

- August Street Shimmer Skirt

- Staple the Label Cracked Metallic Tee

- Mossman Poised For Perfection Dress

Please let me know below or by email what you think about this trend! Which metallic pieces you will be rocking this season?!?
