Céline triple Cabas

I have been wanting a luxury shopper bag for a while now. Carrying fabric tote bags are really useful, but sometimes they feel too much of an essential to make an outfit feel 'special'. I have been in and out of Céline boutiques all spring, and simply didn't find any that caught my eye. So, when I found this shopper on Vestiaire Collective I knew it was exactly what I have been looking for. I actually remember trying it on back in Autumn 2013 when it was released. I am so happy I have finally got the bag I actually wanted, sometimes you do just have to wait for the right one...

Christmas wishlist

I understand that I am no longer a child, however every Christmas I do compile a list which I (imagine to) send to Santa Claus. This year is no exception, with these little luxuries being central to my mind. 

1: Sophie Buhai illusion hoops - the perfect earring for every occasion. I can imagine wearing them on christmas eve to add some sophisticated sparkle to a simple sweater.

2: Charlotte Chesnais gamma ring- delicately wrapping around the fingers, the smooth metal provides a fluid hand adornment, one which will greatly compliment any outfit.

3: The Céline cabas shopper. With its dreamy black leather and stamped golden logo, I simply cannot resist. Having an addition of shape changing tightening straps, its transformative nature provides so many looks and sizes to play with.   

Winter is upon us

The Winter seems bitingly cold this year, and it is the best excuse I have for wrapping myself up in my huge 'bag lady coat'. I must say, I do feel very Olsen twin-like when engulfed in maxi navy cashmere.

Céline modernist earring

Céline. Beautiful, beautiful Céline! Or should I say all hail Pheobe Philo? Her boutique's designs are unequivocally stunning as her collections, with the marble tiled floors, stained glass vases and stone shelving. As a continuation of the interior, comes her spring summer collection. Producing jewellery featuring ritualised quartz and falconeye stone, these earrings particularly enticed me. Their veined blocks hanging from a brass wire sit at the collar bone, creating a dual piece of earring and necklace. Using the same materials as her specialised designed stores, I feel as if a piece of the architecture is hanging from my ear.

After being introduced to Maryam Nassir Zadeh by my sister, I am in complete, utter love. Her shoes are magnificently effortless, their simple design of a relaxed ballet shoe with small block heel providing refined elegance and overwhelming comfort. The soft suede moulds to the foot, and exposes it's natural silhouette, which I find refreshingly elegant from the usual harsh leather footwear which have a form of their own.
