TIPS & ADVICE

Statement Necklaces

by Emma Dibaja on August 9, 2011

Bold statement jewellery is big news this season. As I’ve been spending the previous week in search of style in different parts of southern Europe, one thing I’ve noticed is that you can make a real impression with jewellery alone. And this season it’s all about wearing unique collar necklaces. With loads of stunning necklaces to choose from, it’s hard to go wrong. But one tip I can give you is that if your outfit is simple, go for bold jewellery to spice up the ensemble, and vice versa, if your outfit is more elaborate, go for simple yet unique jewellery. That’s the way to nail the seasons hottest accessory.

Fashion Revival: Peter Pan Collar

by Emma Dibaja on 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. But having said that, I do like to keep myself up-to-date on what’s happening on the fashion scene. And my latest discovery; a trend, which is beginning to really catch on, the Peter Pan collar. I’ve been an advocate of peter pan collars for ages, and now I see that others are doing the same, which is great.

(Slowly) Get Ready For Autumn…

July 25, 2011

One of my favourite looks for the soon-to-come Autumn 2011 is one, which I like to call the “Mary Poppins look”. I love the effortless style that you can create with just a few simple pieces: A long skirt, cute jacket, heels and the cherry on top, a Fedora hat. And yes, I know, I [...]

How to Mix & Match?

July 24, 2011

When you are creating an outfit out of several different prints and patterns, there’s a fine line between ‘just right ‘and ‘too much’. It’s a funny thing, but I really do think that having an eye for style and what looks good is just something that you’re born with. It’s always the same thing. Think [...]

Thoughts on Fashion: Colour Trends

July 8, 2011

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 [...]

How To Be a Modern Day Hippie

May 26, 2011

I’m really feeling the hippie look of this Spring/Summer. So knowing myself and my eternal desire to educate myself, I started to read up on the whole hippie culture. Interesting… But what remains evident is that even if today it tends to be much about the fashion, it definitely wasn’t only about that in the [...]

Why Do We Wear Heels?

May 8, 2011

I’ve recently been thinking about heels. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve always liked them and found them almost like a piece of art, but I’ve recently come to value flat shoes more and started to wonder, why do we wear heels in the first place? 1
