Kangnam Style



 














The Kangnam Collection by Gasparre Cashmere was inspired by designer Rebecca McGeoch's recent trip to Seoul in South Korea. Rebecca's inspiration was the city's street-style colours and styles, as well as the people and the surrounding architecture. The collection's strong colour palette reflects the luxury that is the city of Kangnam, where there is a playful interplay between bold colours, patterns and textures. 

This collection is bold, playful and chic. The colourways used are strikingly beautiful, with the interplaying of neon brights and classic colourways, such as white and navy. I love the fusion of colour, stripes as well as the crochet-styling. My favourite ensemble has to be the striped sweater-cardy combo. It's simply divine!

What is your favourite piece?

Well, this weekend has just flown by. Yesterday the day started off nicely with a pampering session at the hairdressers, followed by some car-hunting, and finished off perfectly with a romantic dinner for two. Today has been a bit more low-key, consisting of a relaxing catch-up with my mother and later on, an enjoyable afternoon spent at home, pottering around.

I'm so excited to say that I have one more week of work and then I take a break for two weeks! I am really looking forward to relaxing over the holidays, as this term has been rather hectic, to say the least. 

How has your weekend been? Did you get up to much?

gelati in the gardens

I was joking with my better half about the outfit I chose to wear to our special family reunion. We needed to travel into the city to the Fitzroy Gardens, and on our journey, we kept eachother entertained by thinking of gelati flavours which matched my oufit. In the end we decided upon raspberry, strawberry, vanilla & mango! The morning was quite fresh, so I decided to wear a layer of silk/cashmere over my silk chiffon shirt. This magical blend always comes through when I'm in need of extra warmth and comfort. This ensemble was the perfect match for my raspberry coloured skirt!  For a picnic, flats seemed like the perfect choice, because of their practicality. So I decided to bring a touch of mango to the gelati mix! These mustard coloured, patent leather ballet flats, are so chic and comfortable. They are one of my favourite pairs of Repetto ballet flats, purchased from the fabulous Alice & Deb at Treasurette. Check out ...

Ballistic for Bally

I have always loved Bally , especially their shoes. They're made with the softest, luxurious leather I have ever worn. Bally were my first ever pair of high end designer shoes and they fit like a glove. So this post is going to be dedicated to one of the most prestigious design houses and their amazingly comfortable, chic shoes.  Here's some of my favourites from Bally's new S/S '12 collection: Which is your favourite? I love the classic black Otty-Crest pump and the teal and navy Palda wedge sandals. Have a great week! Mine will be an interesting one. I finish teaching for the term this coming Wednesday and go on a staff retreat to Creswick for the rest of the week. I'm looking forward to breathing in the crisp, clean country air!

Paint Spot

I've always loved dresses with spots, ever since I spotted Julia Roberts from the movie Pretty Woman, wearing one. They're so feminine and pretty.  A couple of months ago, while perusing Karen Walker 's Spring/Summer collection online, I eyed this paint spot dress and couldn't resist it. I decided I would wear it on Christmas Day, rain, hail or shine. I was so lucky Melbourne's weather was behaving itself that day. Lucky for me! I cannot believe Christmas has been and gone already and now we're into the new year. Over the festive season, a wonderful time was had, catching up with family and my closest friends. We made the traditional roast with all of the trimmings and it was such a perfect day. Christmas has to be my favourite time of the year. How about you? What did you do? I've been enjoying the holidays so far. Of course shopping was high on my priorities, being a lover of all things fashion. I bought myself two beautiful dresses f...
