Tan Your Hide

 Balmain

I love a girl who can rock a black leather jacket. A colleague of mine looks fierce in one with black skinny jeans. I am quite envious because I fear it is a look I can't carry off. But this season there is way more colourful leather and the more femme-y look might be something I could play with. Toughening up midi skirts and pastel floral dresses. Yes please.

If I had a spare 3 grand knocking around I would be all over the blue Balmain beauty. But I don't.

So the search is on to find the perfect leather jacket that won't blow the budget. I'm excited.

Turning my Back on Black

(Image via Hobbs)

I have been wearing far too much black, for what feels like forever. And enough is enough. I am putting a 100% ban on buying anything black and a 70% ban on buying anything white (my other go to shade). Number one item on my colour wish list is this divine Hobbs dress. The colour is oh so slightly Burberry Prorsum, no? I want.

Charmed I'm Shour(ouk)

I adore jewellery. It is increasingly becoming my thing. I used to wear crazy clothes and crazy shoes and crazy make up (red eyebrows anyone? Yes, really, I did that once). But now that I am keeping my look slightly more discreet I like to play up my flashier side with fabulous jewellery.

The flashier and the louder and bigger the better. So needless to say I am beyond excited about Shourouk. Big neon and crystal strewn pieces are right up my street.
