Boot obsession

At this time of the year i feel slightly confused about my wardrobe as its the beginning of Winter but im also heading on holiday to the Cook Islands in 2 weeks so I'm also pondering my tropical outfits.

It certainly means i have been spending a lot of time online and also flicking through my fave magazines, lets face it its always about what your wearing!

Over the year's I have developed an appreciation for boots. They really have become the staple of my winter wardrobe, perfect for the cold days enjoying all that Christchurch has to offer.

On my way home from work this afternoon, I might just have to swing by the mall and possibly lay-by a couple of items.

Who says a girl cant spoil herself?

Winter Wishlist

With the winter slowly getting colder it is time to create my winter fashion wish list. The longer I spend living in Christchurch and the colder winter days and nights I get a bigger appreciation for winter fashion which also means my wish list grows each year.

I have fallen in love with long trenchcoat jackets, warm scarves and knits and gorgeous boots. It gets me all excited just thinking about it.

I cannot wait to continue adding items to my wardrobe.

As the days get colder, i certainly love kicking back with a warm green tea, a great movie and snuggling with my special guy.

Enjoy the rest of your week.

Summer shoes

It has been once again hectic around my part of the world and I have been using every available second making sure that i have my Christmas shopping done as early as possible for once! Every year I find it even harder than the last when it comes to getting presents for my mum and brother so I am using my friends for some much needed help and inspiration.

While i have been on my mission I of course have been browsing the shops for the latest summer trends and have found myself using alot of willpower to make sure I dont blow my budget on myself instead. Which im sure most of you are aware how hard this is!

Some of the summer wedges this year are gorgeous and I must admit I have been wanting to add a pair to my wardrobe for the past few seasons, so maybe this is the year.

Who doesn't love a simple colorful wedge to spice up an outfit. I personally am dying to find a pair to wear with shorts for those late summer nights out with my girlfriends.

Hope Dec is treating you all well.

Wedding attire inspiration

January next year i cannot wait as two of my good friends get married just after New Years. Tom and Em have been friends of my boyfriend Thomas's for a few years and i have loved getting to know them myself. We even live on the same street as them and it makes things so much easier when it comes to having regular catch ups.

Earlier this year Thomas had been asked to be one of Tom's groomsmen and after getting a preview of his outfit (my man looks damm sexy in a suit) i felt that i needed to step my game up so i have been on the hunt for a dress to wear to the wedding ever since. 

Being my first wedding i have zero idea about what to expect and what is expected in terms of an outfit. I did learn that obviously white and black are a no go and it doesnt look right when you turn up in the same colour as the bridesmaids which is yellow. This doesnt leave many colour options for me.

However i have still been trying to find inspiration and the search continues.

The above dress is from Forever New and i adore the colour (see previous post) however im not sure of the neckline and wether its a bit too much for a wedding.

Heres hoping i can find something soon, i cannot tell you how excited i am :) It will be an amazing weekend.

Hope you are all enjoying the end of your week, one more down towards Christmas.

Summer cocktails

With the warmer weather upon us i have been researching some new cocktails to add to my recipe books to start of the summer with a bang. There is nothing better than a refreshing cocktail with friends enjoying the sunshine. If you hadnt already figured it out i am a bit of a summer lover.

1. Paloma Cocktail

2. Watermelon Mojito

3. Raspberry Lemon Drop

4. Coconut Mango Mojitos

What is your fave summer cocktail? 

Bring on the long summer nights.

Maxi Dress Love

With the new summer season not to far away I thought i would share with you a few of my latest maxi dress obsessions. I seriously love wearing a maxi after spending endless hours at the beach. Its also the perfect outfit for a lazy afternoon bbq. I cant wait to find more to add to my collection.

Its getting me through this miserable and rainy afternoon.

Feeling blue?

A big part of my wardrobe is my cobalt blue pieces. Over the last couple of years I have really added a lot of this wonderful colour. I have a blue shirt, and several pairs of blue shoes both heels and flats. I havent quite found the right blue jeans to add to my collection.

Some days it can be the most basic item that can brighten up an outfit and create a wonderful pop.

I cannot get enough of this wonderful colour and the vibrancy it brings. With the beginning of summer coming quickly around I cant wait to bring more of my bright colours out of the wardrobe.

Enjoy your day

Shirt obsession

One of my most favourite items of clothing for the longest time are my collection of shirts. I really do love bright colours and the most comfortable styles. They easily compliment jeans or shorts for an easy breezy summer look. 

This cobaltblue Forever New shirt is almost the same as the Dotti top that i brought online a couple of months ago. The colour is seriously amazing.

Hope you enjoy your day
