Claire's Cat-Eyes & Frizzy Fish-Braid

ADVERTISEMENTS

While I was in Portsmouth at the weekend, we popped into Claire's Accessories to get my younger sister a pair of sunglasses. This place used to be my haven when I was her age, I could spend hours in there much to my parents' dismay. While looking at sunnies for my sister I spotted a pair of cat-eye's that madly enough are probably the best one's I have found as of yet on the high street. They were only £5 so I went ahead and bought them, despite the fact my sister thought I was joking around when I picked them up...

Today I also finally taught myself to do fish-tail plaits. I've tried and failed before when reading instructions, but today I Googled it and used one of the video results instead. I picked it up in minutes! The heat in London right now is pretty insane - nice if you're chilling in the park, not so nice if you're running around doing errands or working/commuting. This little plait is a nice alternative to the usual quick regular braid I would do to my hair and means I can go without straightening it, which would be a complete waste of time with the current weather anyway.

Yeah so when my hair is down and curly it looks like I have a ton, but really there's not many strands at all ^

Ray-Ban Cat Eye-Frames - Be Mine

ADVERTISEMENTS

It's not that I've only just realised there is a trend for Cat eye sunglasses - Alexander Wang and Miuccia Prada, we thank you - but I got an urge to try some recently, and once I found out Ray-Ban make them now too, I was straight to Selfridges to try a pair on.

Anyone that's been shopping for sunnies with me will know that it's rare for me to be satisfied with how they fit. It took me a couple of years to accept that I could never rock aviators like Mila can. I even bought a pair of Wayfarers that I'm not entirely convinced actually look great on me. But these...

... they were a dream. Costing £110 & £150 respectively @ Net-a-Porter, I'm gonna have to hope people are generous for my upcoming birthday, and that my patience will last until I could at least seek them out in Duty Free at the airport en route to Vegas.

I have been seeking out a pair of high street copies for a couple of weeks since my meeting with the babies above, but alas I have been failed. Diamante details, dodgy colours or just all out dodgy shapes mean I'm sticking with my Wayfarers for now.

Show Me How You Make It Glow

ADVERTISEMENTS

Going to Majorca for a week. I have a backlog of images to post already, as well as the fact I haven't checked half my favourite blogs for a few days, nor properly looked at the couture shows, so expect spam when I return for sure. Have a nice week lovelies!

Miu Miu Campaign Fall '10

ADVERTISEMENTS

I've picked out some of the Miu Miu Fall 2010 campaign shots to share with you all, via FashionGoneRogue.

The campaign features last season's Miu Miu girl, Lindsey Wixson, along with Siri Tollerod, Ginta Lapina and Daphne Groenveld, and shot by Mert & Marcus.

I remember when I was interning at Viva London having to put a 'package' together for them of all the girls that may be suited to this campaign. They request people to send them on a slideshow document with two images per page, and won't take books? Unusual for most, but if it's what they need to make it work then that's what they get. And they worked it...

I Heart Horst

ADVERTISEMENTS

Marloes Horst has been on my girl crush radar for some time now. Every time I spot an editorial with the Dutch beauty posted on Fashion Gone Rogue I get excited and usually save every image.

She has long, golden locks that are to die for, piercing blue eyes, a pout to show Miss Jolie up and an amazing and refreshingly healthy body for a high fashion model.

Due to her being quite short for a model, she is used a lot more in editorials than on the runway.

Miranda Kerr - Out & About

ADVERTISEMENTS

I have a huge collection of Miranda Kerr images saved on my laptop, mostly built up from visits to Just Jared and her Fashion Spot forum, so thought I should offload some of them onto here.

I've seperated them into street style/events and photoshoots/VS promo/runway, to make the posts slightly smaller (yet still huuuge).

Light touch my hand, in a dream of Golden Skans

ADVERTISEMENTS

Gold can so easily be tacky, but in most cases it's one of my favourite... Colours? Shades? I don't know.

I never wear silver jewellery - Gold just seems to have a much warmer feeling about it, as do golden tones in general when it comes to clothes, hair or the weather. Yes, I love the sun.
