Statement Necklaces

August 9, 2011

Bold statement jewellery is big news this season.

Fashion Revival: Peter Pan Collar

July 29, 2011

I’m not usually one for mass-trends, but there are always some specific, fun things which I like. Not because they are in fashion, but more because I just like them irrespective of trends and time.

Survival of the Shortest

July 10, 2011

I feel compelled to continue to express my dismay at the amount of shorts I’m seeing this summer. And not just any kind of shorts, but the shortest shorts possible. It almost feels like last year’s shorts-look went on steroids this year. 1

Thoughts on Fashion: Colour Trends

Just today as I was walking in the city in search of some style inspiration, I started to think, what is fashion really about and how are we supposed to utilise it continuously. I mean, we are bombarded with new trends every month, if not every week. So is the idea that we’re supposed to [...]
