My Style | Hue

I like rich color. Bold hues and a strong palette tend to draw me to clothes. The color of this headpiece for example is memorable when put with the blue of my jacket. I think color works best paired with more color. What sort of hues are you drawn to? Are you a brights kind of girl? What are your favourite colors to wear? 

Style Look | Gala Gonzalez

Really like Gala's outfit above. The mix of the knit skirt and the embroidered look at me jacket shouldn't work but somehow it does. The footwear and her fuss free hair adds edge to the look.

Every so often a red carpet look. Stops you in your tracks. Janelle Monae left me awe with her Chanel outfit for the Golden Globes. The effortlessly elegant look is magnificent and one for the best dressed lists. It is nice when a catwalk look works this well off the runway. 

Fashion Tip | Jewellery

How do you wear your jewellery? I like mine layered and textured. The above picture illustrates how I like to mix my jewellery. Studded pieces with color. Thrift store finds with custom pieces. What sort of jewellery do you wear? I like a focus on arm wear as opposed to earrings and necklaces. How do you wear your jewellery? Do you wear one statement piece or do you prefer to layer them on. However you like it, try to wear your pieces differently for a new look. Inspire yourself by changing things up. 

Beauty Tip | Lip Liner

Lip liner is the perfect foundation to your lip color. From preventing any smudging to perfecting the look of your pout, lip liner can help take your lip colour from blah to stella. I like that it helps define a lips while helping keeping lipstick in place. What lip liners do you use? 

Shopping List | Saloni Blouse

Everything from the colour to the design of this blouse would make it a great garment to wear. The fabric is such an easy wear piece. Saloni make such beautiful dresses. It is nice to see a separate from the brand. I like that this could be worn with other separates or over a dress. How would you style this piece? Shop the blouse here

Red Carpet Fashion Awards | Golden Gloves Gemma Chan Valentino

Gemma Chan stuns in a haute Couture Valentino gown and shorts design. The navy blue design is modern but every inch old Hollywood glamour. The pockets keep the look accessible and easy to wear. I like that she keeps her accessories minimal. I would have liked to see her do something else to her hair.

My Style | Sports Dressing

I like how the dresses in the above image flow. You wouldn't expect the two to work but they do. The zippered purple and black scuba dress over the jersey maxi is unexpected,  keeping the look fresh. It is interesting how things can work in the most unexpected ways.  

Shopping List | Louis Vuitton

It is a joy to find a piece that feels that it could be a part of your wardrobe. This blouse by Louis Vuitton is wonderful in that it references the past without being too retro. The design, colour and print makes this a classic that you can wear in a variety of ways. Pair with more prints if you are fashionably brave or wear as the focal piece for a more pared back look. 

Makeup Bag | Chanel Mascara

Something swanky for your makeup bags ladies. This Chanel mascara promises fuller, more voluminous eyelashes. I like the idea of a beauty counter that has lots of different beautiful brands. Widely respected,  Chanel is a luxury brand that won't go amiss in your makeup bag. Get thicker eyelashes in this black mascara here . 

Style Tip | Layering

Two is better than one. Layering gives an outfit a power that it otherwise wouldn't have. Thinking about wearing a dress over a pair of pants? Do it. Two tops instead of one? Why not? Mix interesting hemlines and shapes for added depth and fun structure. Case point would be this outfit. A faux fur shrug over this sweater top just makes for a joyful outfit. The shrug changes the shape of the look and lends to the texture. What pieces could you layer? Keep it fabulous.
