These boots are hot. Red hot ;)

The 'Bruce' perspex clutch from Charlotte Olympia was in my sights for a while (seen back here). The lovely boy surprised me and had it delivered when he was away. Yes, I am a lucky, lucky, LUCKY girl.

Happy Birthday

A belated 'happy birthday' post to my manager Christina. This is the outfit I wore to her birthday party. Such a fun evening :)

Still loving my Kandee boots. Some studs have fallen off but I say that those are just battle wounds because these are my party shoes! I seem to have a great night whenever I wear them. These babies are super high and I feel like an unstoppable amazon when I'm in them.

Kimono

Bodysuit: American Apparel. Boots: Jeffery Campbell 'Lita'.

I adore kimonos. I have a gorgeous vintage one that I like to waft around the house in (it makes me feel like a theatre dame) so it pleases me immensely that kimonos are now having a 'moment'. It means I can take my wafting to the streets!

Whispers & Anarchy

Boots: Jeffery Campbell 'Lita'.

I was asked by Mimco to take part in their 'Whispers & Anarchy' campaign and even before I saw the video and received the awesome inspiration package I knew I wanted to shoot something wind swept and pretty in an urban landscape. Luckily the boy agreed. The bag is patent, which I'm sure you all know gets a big thumbs up in my book and you can tuck the chain strap in and use it as a box clutch. 

The checked dress arrived from Storets this morning and I put it on straight away. Love at first sight!

P.S you can see my previous Mimco shoot 'Unpredictable Revolution' here.

We're back on home soil and it feels good :) 

As much as I love traveling I hate that it means I can never have all of my wardrobe with me. I miss my clothes! It was nice to get re-aquainted with these Storets pants and my Chanel bag today. 

The lip colour is one of my all time favorites- 'Lady Danger' from MAC. It's the perfect orangey red. More of my favorite lippies here.

My hair is having a 'au natural' moment due to all the Bikram yoga I plan to do now that I'm home.... My hair has to only think that there's moisture in the air and it reverts to curly!

Bang

I have nothing but good things to say about Storets.com. Seriously, everything I get from them I love. This skirt makes all my leather skirt dreams come true!

I went to the hairdressers today and was supposed to cut some bangs (a fringe for my fellow English people) but I chickened out at the last minute and just had some layers added. I've decided not to let my fear get the better of me and I'm going back tomorrow and getting myself some bangs.... I think. Eeeek!

We're finally in LA! 

I've spent the week getting over jet lag and reacquainting myself with all my favorite LA things :)

I'm having trouble wanting to wear any other shoes at the moment. These have all my favorite qualities: Black. Patent. Studs. It also helps that compared to my usual 5 inch heels these are like slippers!

Mini Leopard

Ooooooooh I cannot even begin to tell you the drama I had getting my hands on this bag. It was a birthday gift from the boy and his lovely family (thank you Goldbergs!) and was ordered in advance of my birthday from Net-a-Porter. First there was a delay getting the bag delivered, then when it eventually arrived I wasn't sure I even liked the bag anymore and spent a week comparing and contrasting it with every other 'Alexa' in the world, then when I finally decided to stop being crazy and admit my love for the bag.... IT BROKE. I wore her for one hour to Sainsbury's and the postman's lock broke. I do not even have the words to express my anger. The following few days were spent on the phone to Net-a-Porter's customer care team (hello Jane!) who arranged to have the broken bag collected and then sent me out a new one. So now here she finally is: My patent mini leopard Mulberry 'Alexa'. And let me tell you something, after all that drama- I love her.

The white shirt I'm wearing comes from Club Couture. I am of the belief that you can never have too many shirts. This one has sparkly buttons so it's completely different from the 6 other white silky shirts in my wardrobe. At least that's what I tell myself ;)

Props to storets.com for this gorgeous skirt.... Makes me feel like a ballerina and since it's black that must mean I'm a black swan ballerina. Yes I am!

p.s Have you noticed Oscar peaking at me from the corner of some of these shots? He gets so excited when me and the boy go outside to take the blog pictures. I'm trying to make a gif of him ambushing me during this shoot. 

p.p.s This outfit was only made possible by the two pairs of Uniqlo heat tech leggings and my M&S thermal vest worn under it. God bless thermal!
