Moody Monday



I own one of the most comfortable pair of trousers on the planet! Yes I say this with pride cos it fits amazingly well, well tailored, it's in a colour that is to-die-for and most importantly it was a total bargain!  Infact it was a steal! Like everyone around me knows, I'm not too grand to admit that I scour the sales rack for bargains....why pay a tenner when you can score the same item for a fiver? I usual go for items that are classical and won't go out of style the next season (I don't thump my nose at trendy things!  If I like it I just buy it....).


H&M pants


These pictures were taken last Monday when I was sure my boss wasn't in the office so the photo shoot was done in a mighty rush so excuse the picture quality.s

Zara Blazer

Back to the pants at hand (well on legs to be exact), I get all sorts of compliments when I wear it and I'm trying my darnest best not to wear it as much as I feel like so it'd last longer and yes I handwash it too (don't get me started on how many times I've kicked the washing machine for shrinking, bleeding or stretching beloved item of clothing).

River Island blouse

 The colour of the pants is kinda orangey peachy and my ass looks pert and less wobbly in it.  


I wore it with a cream cowl neck silk blouse, a dark blue blazer and nude shoes.

Black Pleather


Hi guys,
For reasons I cannot explain lately I've been drawn to the colour black. Could I be drawn to it cos of the slimming effect it gives (yeah I think I've piled back the pounds I lost early this year) or its sense of mystery......Maybe it's psychological...like me trying to seem invisible and blend in with the crowd.



The dress featured in this post is to die for as it's bang on trend, it's got the peplum thing in leather (not real leather though..more like pleather).  The dress is sooooooo sexy and classy at the same time as it just hugs the curves in a good way and is just the right length.



For more ommph I added a skinny mock red snake skin belt


I had a couple of meetings yesterday and have learnt from experience how cold some clients offices can be so I threw on my trusty leopard print cardie.



I always advice people to plan their day ahead and dress accordingly, if you're going to be jumping from office to office, place to place all day make sure you wear comfy shoes, nothing screams desperation and unsexy than a girl hobbling painfully around in six-inch plus heels that pinch and trying to keep a straight-face.


Last but not least I put on a genuine smile and with a defiant flip of my weave I was ready to face the day!

Last Friday Blues.....


 Hi all,

Being uber busy with work so haven't had time to do posts.  Kinda miss blogging so I decided to do three quick posts with no words just pics and fashion credits!  Hopefully I would get more free time next week.....

p.s. Forgive the low picture quality, still saving up for my Nikon t3i.....

An (unstructured) Ode to Friday


So happy it's Friday!  Friday is like the most magical day of the week! Friday reeks of possibilities, fun, and freedom.  Every pending file is safely tucked into a drawer and it seems like the  hands of the clock are taking their sweet time before hitting 5pm! Oh the longing, the despair, the wait!


While all of this is happening your boss is probably thinking of that email you promised to respond to but haven't but being the good sport that he is he decides to let you off!


The numbers on your 1988 retro Casio watch finally changes to 5.00pm and you jump up snapping your fingers and exchanging your flats for your heels, your nude lipgloss is replaced by the 'girl around town' shade of lipstick from Mac.  The weekend is here.....just two days they say but by God you'll rock it like its a full lifetime!

My Goth-Rock Style (fooling around)



Black hair? Check!  Black lace? Check! All black outfit, black eyeliner and black smouldering looks? Check! Check!! Check!!!   
Yeah I know I should have amped the volume up some more with some skull pendants, shiny spikes, black fingerless gloves and thigh-high black S&M boots but I had to work with what I had!!!!  

p.s.  next time it would be an electric guitar Slash would be proud of!
