small snippets of inspiring things.

and i would kill for this...


...and this dress, too.

...i'll be needing this top, aswell.


(this too, please...)
...And this!

i need this top now, please!

16.2.10

A new want.

Seeing the humidity in Sydney has lowered over the past couple of days, it has given me some time to think about autumn - the most delicious of seasons filled with beautiful colours, crisp air, and some little snippets of sunshine (minus the melt-worthy humidity we have been experiencing of late...)


There are a couple of things I think I will be needing for this time of year, however at the top of the list is a pair of Wolford small-spotted stockings. This is the first time in a long time I have craved a pair of opaque stockings, however the small spots on them are very cute, and will look amazing teamed with black dresses, or peaking out from cropped tailored pants. These are also a great way to make the open-toe summer shoes last that little bit longer. I want now, please.

Zara Loving.


Aesthetically the collection looks like a mix between Celine and Chloe, and I'm not complaining at all.

my favourite.

FINALLY...

A few things to get excited about...

1. Camilla & Marc


I am not usually a fan of Camilla & Marc, but I was looking at my friend's blog (called what-i-need-now + it's a bit amazing) and got excited. 


So I had a look on their website, and here are the pieces of Camilla & Marc that I will be needing come Autumn/Winter. (I know some of them are very similar to the Balmain pieces, but I doubt that will stop anyone...)



















2. Willow


I love, love Willow. I am still undecided if this dress is ridiculously amazing, or if it just looks that good because Abbey-Lee is wearing it. Probably the latter. 
















3. Karen Walker


Karen Waker has been around for what seems like forever. Her stuff also never really stands out when you are instore looking at her label against others - particularly ones with shoulder pads, sequins, etc (see above), but there is something stable about buying Karen Walker - you know you are going to wear it 1 million times, and still feel good every time. I love this collection too, and the loafers are another big want!














4. Ellery


I know these images are older, but the colours are definitely something to get excited about for Autumn/Winter. The jacket below is also high on my want list... As is the whole look below it.
Ah!






So now I just needs lots of money. Any suggestions?!
I am currently really inspired by the way older - or should I say "more mature" women dress. There is something much more classic and stylish in some older women's style, that younger girls just don't have. I'm thinking it is something to do with them being more confident and comfortable in their own skin, mixed with a few more life experiences and an understanding that they do not need to flash lots of skin to look sexy. 


Case in point: Anna Dello Russo



**Note this inspiration does not mean I am aching to be old(er). I'm not, and my friends can vouch for that.
