TREND: THE FLORAL JUMPSUIT

Floral has been a huge trend this summer. With it getting a bit cooler in South Africa, jumpsuits are a great way to move from a hot day into the cooler night. Throw on a cool leather jacket or a slick black blazer at nice for great evening look . Jumpsuits are great way to look stylish and stay comfy at the same time.

LOVE THIS! INSPIRATION 4 THE DAY!

TREND: THIGH HIGH/ OVER THE KNEE BOOTS

With winter coming up thought i would do my first trend post, thigh high/ over the knee boots.

In 2010 i was over joyed to see that thigh high/ over the knee boots in all our hot local South African stores, they were in fashion and hot as ever, and in 2011 they are still steaming. This makes me really happy as i am obsessed with my thigh highs and will be wearing them for many winters to come.

This is a trend that almost everyone can pull off, if they know how to wear it, and what to pick when purchasing a thigh high/over the knee boot. So here are a few pointers.

When purchasing thigh highs you can go for a flat boot or a gorgeous heel, make sure the fabric is NOT patterned leather or of a metallic/ bright colour. This can make the boots look less stylish and more pretty women. Rather go for a warm looking fabric in a high quality leather or suede material preferably in black, camel, tan or a dark brown.


Thigh high/ over the knee boots are great for making the transition from summer to autumn. Wear them with a bold printed or plain dress or skirt.



You can wear thigh highs/over the knee boots in winter over jeans with a chic blazer or leather jacket,

or wear them with a pair of sheer tights and a simple top with some awesome jewelery.

BEAUTIFUL

One of my favorite photographers of all time Herbert "Herb" Ritts (August 13, 1952 – December 26, 2002)took this photo. So beautiful definitely one of my top pictures ever. Herbert Ritts concentrated on black and white photographs that he called 'Glamour picture' which were mainly done nude. Will be posting more of his pics! What do you guys think of it?

SWEET P SANDALS

So i discovered the most amazing summer sandal range called sweet P's. Stacy Peinke the owner of sweet p sandals hand makes all the sandals making them really stunning and unique. She uses all types of different fabrics, beads and feathers really making them a awesome buy for summer. And even though it is getting a bit colder in South Africa her sandals are so versatile that you can use them from summer to summer getting lots of wears out of them! The sandals range from R240- R270 and Stacey delivers country wide. I purchases a pair and am loving them! I'm a sucker for anything animal print so of course i got a leopard print pair. Sweet p sandals is a definite must for 2011!
