Wish I had one JUST like this!

Hung{red}

Did you know that the colour red stimulates our appetite and it is seen very often in fast food chains (Macdonalds, KFC) and restaurants to do just that! Well I went registry shopping for my kitchen tea coming up soon and I have chosen a neutral black & white scheme with a pop of red! Inspired by these pics.

Pantone, Pink

We have all seen the colour popping up since it became one of the pantones for Spring 2012. Pink! Here are some inspiring pics of the colour in fashion, decor and beauty! Have you tried it yet?

In fashion mix it up by wearing one statement piece & tie in with neutrals, gold or colour block!

 I will rock pink lips ASAP!

 Don't you JUST want to take a seat?

Autumn/Winter 2012 by Burberry Prorsum

Burberry Prorsum really wowed the London Fashion Week with their take on "Everywhere you go, always take the weather with you". Their winter staples include peeks of ruffles, oversized knits and jewels. Love it or hate it, you're going to find yourself slipping into something more Burberry when winter rolls on in!

DIY: Business Cards for an Artist

Absolutely love this concept and step-by-step on business DIY business cards! So fit for an artist :) Here.

Sorry for the long pic! :)

Canary Heels

So sorry for the lack of posting and all things nice I bring to the interweb but I unfortunately used a LOT of internet data last month and am currently only able to get internet when I am at Lee's place. 

So here I am at Lee's place! I have been super busy lately helping his mom with some of her wedding stationery for her business and planning our wedding and all of that. Things are coming together! They better be because there are only 4 months to go!!!!

Spotted this on Tuula Vintage blog and I must say my fave part of this whole look are those ZARA heels. 

Beauty Buys

So lately I got some good beauty buys with all my rewards from The Body Shop and Clicks! 

1. Frizz-Ease by John Frieda. Well I just got my hair cut and I always try to find something extra for my hair. Not a fan of putting things onto my dried hair but this stuff smells incredible and I guess it works... 

2. NIVEA Creme. I already own and use daily the NIVEA Soft cream but I thought for those extra dry areas this would be a treat... and it is! Nice and thick and leaves my skin softer!

3. Catrice Cover Stick Concealer. I have been using a more liquidy concealer for a while and thought to try this one seeing as mine is finito! Catrice seems new to me but I must say so far so good. (Also try their brand in nailpolishes!)

4. The Body Shop, Moringa Shower Gel. Speaks for itself but I love this new refreshing smell. I am so used to the vanilla and shea butter for winter but this is so lovely for summer! 

L.A. Girl

I have been buying L.A Girl nail varnishes for about two years now... It could be because they are well stocked into Dischem and I live right across the road from the mall! I have recently bought some great colours and thought I would share them with you! I love their nail varnishes as the colours as so rich and a great match to what you see in the bottles. They also are so easy to apply and are not thick and blotchy! 

Peek-a-boo!

A little bit of a delayed post but here is a little pic of my new pants! I got these from Zoot about a month ago and am waiting for the cooler weather to wear them. Love how they can be dressed up like below or dressed down with a simple jersey and flats. Do you like them?

Worn here with black heels, white tee with pocket detail and turquoise drop necklace from Mr.Price, cobalt blue Zara blazer and beaded clutch is vintage from my mom. 

PS. Happy Valentines Day for tomorrow! 

White Denim

How hot is this look? Love the blog too. 

Late Afternoon.

Pastels on Pinterest

Hey bloggers. Shew, I have been M.I.A for the past few days and so here is a simple post to make up for that. Just logged onto my fave site for inspiration, Pinterest, and there is some pinner clearly loving pastels and I can't complain. How lovely are these pics? All images from Pinterest.

Happy Friday!

Holidays

A very late post to show a few small parts of my holidays... Yes, ELLE has her place on the line with the bikinis after a day in the sun! Our little beach party left us with the coolest decor from our shady tree. The ham for Christmas all prepped for the oven... And my beautiful Baggins! Love my kitty! 

Gold Bell

This bell skirt is stunning! Wish I had one and wish I had a place to wear it... Image, Atlantic-Pacific.

Thanks to Craig for the photos!
