Oh hello there! Spring has just crept in and I've fallen HARD for that lace Dolce & Gabbana dress! And is that a TOMATO print?
INGENIOUS.
I'm so happy that it's getting warmer. Time to shed those layers...

The versatile denim shirt. I finally got my own from Giordano the other day complete with snap-on buttons. Picture of it coming soon. Paired with slacks and some sky-high heels- easy peasy.

Dang. Britt Maren is the hottest peroxide blonde ever. She almost makes me want to shave my locks and go all pixie.
On another note, how DIY-able is that black safety-pin tee? It totally looks like something one could do on a lazy Sunday afternoon...

I've caught this MASSIVE cold, it's driving me crazy right now trying to breathe. So I'm posting this absolutely fantastic outfit to lift my spirits up a bit. Jumpsuit + strappy heels + weaved clutch = divinity. I also love the sunnies, did you know that Bottega Veneta made shades too? I had no idea, fancy that. I hope you're having a better Friday night than I am!

I hope you're having a lovely week! It's only Tuesday and I'm feeling so tired already...falling asleep while drinking coffee
. Uh oh. Posting this lovely, loud editorial featuring gorgeous chunky bracelet cuffs and necklaces. It's what I want to wear this summer. J'adore!

This is SO adorable. How could you ever eat something this pretty?? These super cute Pantone confections were made by
26 year old French baker Emilie. Her entire blog is just scrumptious!

Wildfox My Name Is Rio T-shirt
Madewell Garment Dyed Midi Shorts
Tory Burch Emmy Thong Flat Sandals
Deborah Lippmann Mermaid's Dream nailpolish

Sort of LOL-ing at my dodgy photo-shopping skills here. Please excuse. This is the sort of outfit I want to be wearing right now to the T...in thongs...and preferably lighting soy candles by the beach...Actually I just ordered the exact Wildfox tee above, can't wait to get into it for sure.

Some great outfits of blogger fave Hanneli Mustaparta. Do you read her blog too? She's like a Taylor Tomasi Hill- she always has the best accessories.

The first outfit is my favourite from the new A/W 2012-13 collection. The pom pom lace is just the cherry on top.
I always have a fave outfit for each season (check out my picks from Spring 2012 and A/W 2010-11 in previous posts). This year feels like a Victorian cowgirl-who-lives-on-a-ranch kinda thing for me. Second outfit has the same shirt, I just happen to like it in black a lot more but it looks really slick matched with that stitched-up leather skirt.
Thumbs up Isabel.

I have a feeling that cowboy boots are going to be HUGE this season and next. Did you see the ones Isabel Marant sent down the runway last week? Totally loved the whites. Embellishing a denim vest/jacket with studs, brooches and large rhinestones in slightly random places seems like a lovely idea.

summer want: espadrilles

Forget Spring and fast forward to Summer. I am so entirely sick of the cold weather in Seoul that I'm constantly looking at beach images, surfing tropical destinations on the web and laying out outfit compilations on the bed involving TEE SHIRTS! As for shoes, espadrilles are definitely my choice summer footwear considering that I've always had a thing for jute rope heels. My own nude pair is currently warming the shoe bench as I write this. Though I wouldn't mind adding any of these colourful options to the closet:

Edmundo Castillo Sonia Rocio Espadrilles
Tory Burch Criss Cross Wedge
Rebecca Minkoff
Interlock Platform
Espadrilles
Dolce Vita Olly Suede

"DFB is a photographic series capturing subjects riding their bike from behind on some 200+ streets, avenues and lanes below 14th street in New York City.
The result is an environmental portrait for each street and subject with a goal to highlight a set of individuals, emerging and established, each uniquely contributing; culturally, socially and physically, to make this part of the city what it is today.

Subjects photographed to date include industrial designers, architects, creative directors, restauranteurs, entrepreneurs, hoteliers, artists and academics."

I love this! This is such an AWESOME idea. Pictures like these always leave you hanging- you want to know what they look like from the front too. Oh and another thing, I think I need to move to the West Village stat. Why are the streets there so beautiful?!
