RING IN SPRING

I'm sitting in on my bed, it around four o'clock. The tendrils of a light breeze caressing my nose with the promise of summer has had me dreaming of lazy, hazy beach days; sand in between my toes, salt framing my lips to lick. Drinking cider with friends whilst reminiscing over last nights antics when we stepped out without velvet coats. Careless wondering on hot tarmac and reading in the park. Please bring her to me! This is an ode to summer dreaming,  I definitely forgot the one-piece black bathing suit in there, but she'll be around.

#10 Lula, I am still lost in the pages of this issue.

#12 K Jacques, most definitely the perfect summer shoe.

#13 Curio Noir Tobacco Night

#14 Lover Dress with Collar - I really want this as my 'special occasions' dress, I think it is beautiful.

SHE COMES IN COLOURS

I am obviously in no way partial to any season. In my opinion summer deserves an honorable  mention all year round because on the other side of the world, she's blazin'. This is an ode to sugar coated dreaming, being in love, sipping coke at le cinema, hanging out with boys in cars, kissing boys in cars and dancing around to your favourite record in white frilly socks.

WINTER WISHLIST

I am a mood dresser for sure, and to suit the current wintery and studious almost militant state of affairs I currently find myself in, the following garments of perfection would do nicely, thankyou! Mainly eyeing off the camouflage A.P.C parka. Oh and the Comme shoes.

BADLANDS BABY

     I love finding new favourites at my local video store, Film Club. They always seem to have a treasure   trove of old classic films, gathering dust on the shelf just waiting for their secrets to be revealed. I picked Badlands last night, and its made its way to somewhere-round-the-top on my all time list. Based on the horrifyingly true story of two renegade teens, Sissy Spacek (70s poster girl; yum) and Martin Sheen (somewhat cooler than the later Sheen) star in the 1973 flick. I love the silken visions of 70s suburban nostalgia in a Lolita-esque playground woven against the tapestry of a bone-chilling Bonny and Clyde murder story, in what becomes a stealthy Cadillac race across the Prairie badlands of Montana.  I'll be channeling Sissy the next time I skip off to the store, in the secret hopes of meeting my very own murderous James Dean doppelgänger to steal me away.

Saturday In the Park

Im not usually one for understated chic casual dressing, or whatever you call it, but sometimes, oh how I wish I was! I do dream of it but when I leave the house wearing jeans, a stripey shirt, ballet flats and a wrist watch (not that I ever have), I would (hypothetically) pick up thrift store junk on the way to 'glitter' the outfit. Here I try my hand at it; this would be as min-chic as it gets, throw in some pink and a splash on neon orange, and voila.
