Knit and Hosiery Love

I’m currently loving how knits are styled with hosiery lately.

Prada
Prada gives is a splash of colour and I absolutely love the toe-less knee-high socks.

Pringle of Scotland
And Pringle of Scotland has that gorgeous details on the knit and played around dark, subdued hues. Note the use of grey tights.
Hosiery matters in looks now, it seems.

Winter Style: Pick Out Your Knits

Warmth is one of the important things when the coldest season arrives. Women in coats, tights, boots and gloves will walk the streets, covered in snow or not, fighting off the biting chilly wind. I can only imagine the frustration for some who own tons of fabulous clothes but can’t wear them. I can’t say […]

Trend Alert: Gray Handbags and Purses

If you still find yourself wearing a bikini but the weather turned on you and it’s too chilly for your bare skin, I suggest a cover up. It will allow you to enjoy the beach and still keep yourself warm.

Top the Season Off with a Sultry Halter

One of the few tops that I think that may be suitable for women during this warm weather. It doesn’t hurt that it has that warm colours that fits with the season’s look. I found it over at Nordstrom (yet again!) and it’s the Matty M Knit Halter Top.
The flowing lines with floral accents are […]

Yellow Sleeveless Top from All Boxed Up

It was a gem in the chaos of my recent shopping binge. I didn’t expect I’d get to buy a top like it from All Boxed Up, a local clothing shop that’s known for selling boxers and sleep wear for men and women. The sleeveless top in dusty yellow is one of the items I […]

Outfit of the Week: Dolce & Gabbana Striped Lurex Knit and Chain Shorts

I love the idea of going retro-casual. The look reminds me of 70s glam, the fashion era wherein women oozed with sex appeal. Hehe. ;)
