A/W 2012-13

Hi there! Procrastination is reaching it's maximum over here. I have 3 days to pen 2 essays and, well, I'm blogging instead. I'm so happy I've almost completely finished university for the year! Anyhow, here's the Caterina Gatta collection A/W 2012-13 above. How spectacular are those prints?! I'm dying for pretty much every single piece! Below, I've added my favourite look from the S/S 2013 collection, the skirt was too fabulous not to feature!! Also, I'm so hyped for Christmas, it is the best time of year!! :) I will be posting more regularly after my exams. 

Happy days!

S/S 2013

Rodarte, Spring 2012

Just a few things from Rodarte s/s 12 that I love too much. Catch a glimpse of that fabulous excess inspired by Van Gogh! Somehow these pieces just ooze luxury and simplicity for me all at once and I don't even know how. They're just very fun to look at. 

In other news, student life has been treating me no differently than usual. I'm unsure of where I'm bound or what I might do with my course. I'm just going through that "what the heck am I doing with the rest of my life" panic moment where I realise I have to make important, adult decisions about my future. It's still all up in the air, but I'll be sure to blog all about it when I've got something more concrete figured out.

Enjoy your week :)

Things have been pretty quiet over in this little space but they've never been very noisy anyway. I've been keeping myself busy with university work and have no great news to report on unfortunately. But! Summer is just around the corner and though I've never been one to get truly excited about the stinking hot days it brings, I am pretty pumped for the long break before the new semester. I can't wait for all those sultry afternoons exploring the city with my pals, sipping on home-made ice tea and catching up on some well earned laziness. Fingers crossed I can convince some of them to snap a few outfit photos for me along the way because I know I'm lacking in that department.

Anyhow, here's the Alice McCall collection from 2012 as seen on the runway. I particularly love how lightweight and soft the fabrics look.

Zimmermann 2012

Yeah yeah, I know, I haven't posted anything substantial in forever but in my defence, being a newby 1st year in university has got me being all goody-two-shoes about everything which means I have very little time between my job and my study.  Okay so I exaggerate a bit, I'm not that good about my uni work, after all I like to spell study like this: P-R-O-C-R-A-S-T-I-N-A-T-E. Rest assured what little time I do have is spent is wasted away on the internet, watching trailers for movies I'll never see but will invariably write on the "must see" list in the back of my notebook. Also: the fridge, the blogs, the television, the pet bird, the dancing in undies to music I can't mention because I'm not 14 anymore and won't be taken seriously.


So there is an actual point to this post. All of the pictures accompanying it are from the Zimmerman 2012 campaigns. The S/S collection called "Halcyon Days" are pictured below and the A/W "Rebellion is the Night" campaign is pictured above. How sweet are those floral prints and the varying lace and crochet pieces? And I love the breezy look of the S/S line and the silky, elusive look of the A/W. I think it's interesting when both collections are viewed in conjunction to see how floral prints were used in both but so differently each time. I'm not sure if I'd wear some of these pieces; the silhouettes, especially in the S/S line would look horrid on my body shape. Still, it's always fun to look! Anyway, enjoy lovelies.


I'll try to be better about posting :)
