Finding the perfect A-Line mini skirt

Saturday, 3 January 2015

A-line Mini skirts are my obsession, they are my go to peice in my wardrobe - so much so that I am recognised as the "skirt and tights girl" at college!
I find them so much more flattering than jeans and trousers, for my figure personally and I love there quirky-elegance they have.
However, finding the basic a line skirt to be worn with anything has came as quite a mission, especially within a reasonable price tag zone- I have came across numerous in high street stores in the perfect A line shape, to be disappointed to find an unwanted zip, pocket and most irritating a coloured pattern!
Valentino, Miu Miu and Dolce and Gabbana have all produced the perfect skirts- however their price range is rather high! I will either eagerly await for them to enter the sale, or painfully save so that I can own the perfect mini skirt...

Valentino £430
Miu miu  £635


Dolce and Gabbana £266 (reduced from £380)

SC X LV

Tuesday, 30 December 2014

After years of waiting, I have finally managed to add the Sofia Coppola x Louis Vuitton to my bag collection. I have been building up my collection, with this bag always in mind - the luxurious outer leather and inner suede.
The sizing of the bag is a major purpose to my purchase; owning Chanel 2.55 and Reissue in the smaller sizes, I have felt the need to own another luxury bag that will hold much more items, for more practical use.

The size of this bag is the PM: however much to my confusion there are two versions of the PM, this being the cobalt, coming under the smaller of the two(along with various other colours,black not being an option)  and a ever so slightly larger PM is black- the cobalt in this option features a pink trim, however black is an option.
The prices remain the same, which also added to my confusion due to their different sizings. 

This should have been a negative, due to my favor being in the bigger PM; but Cobalt without the pink.
  However my lust for the cobalt was overcome and I had to indulge. Upon reflection of my bag, I feel I have made the correct choice, as this size enables me to transition from daytime to night, whilst still achieving practicality and elegance.

This miniskirt is currently number one on my wishlist, and has quickly escalated to becoming number one prority.
It would fit seamlessly into my wardrobe; being such an essential within my 60's trend obsession, and muted colour addiction.

Saint Laurent Mary Jane "Babies'

Wednesday, 19 November 2014

My last post was focused on Saint laurent, and the items I would define as perfect. 
When finding these garments on Saintlaurent.com I also came across the assortment of Mary Jane pumps; gold, silver, studded and glitter. And then the black patent pumps flicked across my eyes as i scrolled down the page. 
I immediately scrolled back up, however I was met with disappointment:
 I fell in love with the patent maryjanes, as I am currently requiringan alternative to my patent Vaentino tango pumps, which are simple with a single strap, and no details.
 However, the saint laurent were not simple enough for my liking: they either came in a double strap with plain toe, or with a single strap and a buckle on the toe. 
I had since been constanly wishing that they had produced the single strap, with the plain toe. And then,  having a quick check through my Polyvore feed, there they are, the utter perfection Saint Laurent mary janes i had been dreaming and longing for! Single strap, no details, patent.
The only thing left to do now is proceed to checkout, and my wish will be granted…
