style paparazzi two

So this marks my second street style post. As I said in the last one, my folder is full to the brim so it was hard to pick which one to share next. However,  this colour popping blazer calling out at me and I couldn't resist this girl. This is such a simple outfit with dark denim shorts and white shirt combo which only makes the jacket shine out that little bit more. 
My favourite colour is green (maybe it's something to do with the fact it's the meaning of my name?) and it also happens to be the colour of envy, something I definitely have after seeing this girl. 

Just look at that perfect red pout, effortlessly placed trilby and not to mention that hunk of a designer bag on her arm.

P.s I've had all theses images on my laptop for so long, and their birthplaces are but a distant memory. So, if they happen to be yours, just let me know and I'll pop a credit on. 

birds of a feather

I really love recieving handmade presents, and last year for christmas the boy framed one of his prints as a surprise. It had been something he had been working on for his final year project on the very cheesy subject of love, and this was my favourite page. I had it in storage at my Nan's house whilst I moved rooms and I've only just managed to bring it home, where it now has pride of place on my wall.

These images have been floating around the blog world for a while but I felt the need to share them again with you. I have a huge passion for magazine design and geek out each month on all my favourites. 

I have a love/hate relationship Vogue, and often feel they just don't hit the mark. However, after seeing these I got a little excited.  Some clever girl (shrubrub to be precise) has super-imposed all the covers of Vogue this year on top of each other! I think the end effect looks rather beautiful, much like a fiery angel?

Here are some of my other favourites...

Italy

home is wherever I'm with you

Can't stop listening to this video at the moment. There are no words, it's the cutest thing I've ever seen.

I'm a sucker for a pretty picture, and this has resulted in a rather bulging inspiration folder on my desktop. So it would be rude not to share some of my findings with you guys.  When I started this blog, the only other blogs I read were filled with street style shots and I can spend hours  scrolling through snaps of stylish girls and wishing I had even an ounce of the style they possess. 

So that's why I've decided to have start a regular street style post where I can show you what is inspiring me at the moment. 

This girl first caught my eye with those amazing camel trousers. I've been after a pair for ages, but have yet to find ones that flatter my curvy petite frame. This little lady has paired them with a cute Fair Isle sweater (the must have knit), some cute suede T-bar sandals (in the perfect blue colour) and of course the obligatory messy waves.

Happy New Year

Happy new year to you all, and I hope the next twelve months are good to you! It's been a strange year for me, but I have a good feeling about this one. For the next six months I'm interning doing my my dream job so I've got all my fingers and toes crossed  that something comes from it. There are so many things I want to do so I hope that everything falls into place. 

I'm going to try and update on here a little more, and maybe show you all a little more of the work I'm doing. The next year also marks the first birthday of a little project of mine that some of you may know about it, and if you don't then please check out Cellardoor as it really is simply beautiful! ... I'm definitely not biased!

get in the mood

I had a huge collection of mood rings when I was younger - I thought they were magical. So seeing these new lipsticks from Urban Outfitters made me extremely happy. The set includes 5 pastel shades with names like temper, Melancholy, Clarity, Vain, and Lust to correspond to your mood. The lipsticks goes on sheer and then slightly changes colour. They sort of remind me of My Little Pony, and what girl didn't love them.

Merry Christmas

Wow... I've not been on here for a while and I've gained a few more readers. Merry Christmas to you all. 

I've had a quiet one this year, but who doesn't love spending time with the family watching crappy TV and eating your weight in Black Forest Gateau! 

I was a lucky girl this year as Santa brought me a little iPod touch as well a cute vintage looking watch, a cable knit jumper, tan satchel and a new portable hard drive. Thanks big guy. 

What did you all get? I Hope you all had a great day and stuffed yourselves silly.

I'm loving the latest video from Topshop, especially that red lippy. They've gone for a decadent look with beaded dresses and toughened up with chunky knits and lace up boots and I adore all of it. 

I know where I'll be spending my money come the January Sales. 

Moomins

After seeing that silly facebook game where everyone changed their profile picture to an image of their favourite childhood television character, it got me thinking back to who mine would be. 

I was a bit of a TV junkie and would watch pretty much anything that was on, but usually favouring a bit of Nickelodeon - Rugrats, Sister Sister or Aaaargh Real Monsters anyone?

However, one programme that really got me excited was the Moomins. Those strange hippo like animals - what even were they - used to have me fixed to the box. I even had numerous videos and a mug to match. 

What was yours?
