The girls go cosmical

It looks like the girls have gone 'cosmic' and bo does it look appealing. I was delighted when three of my all time favourite bloggers (for many different reasons) started a new 'trend'. I had less to do with clothes and more to do with 'the ambiance', but the idea was rather nice.

And what is a trend for , if not to be at least, tried out at least once. So here goes I thought I would give it a try, to a lesser degree and this is the result. Hope you like it and if you try it yourself do let me know.

They are crazy about tights

2009 was without a doubt the year for tights, never had I seen so many different interpretation of this practical piece of clothing. More so, the numerous different tights DIY I came across were pretty interesting; from embellished tights to ripped tights. There was definitely something for everyone. More types and styles of tights meant more skirt, dresses  and shorts which was a nice change. Dotted tights ("plumetis") was the new 'it thing' to be wearing, especially combined with leather or even just peekin out from under a pair of cropped trousers. Then there was the two toned tights which added a nice twist to a simple outfit. Since, NYE girls all over have gone lace crazy, not only in dresses, tops but also on tights.

The queen of the tights and one lady that sure know s who to have fun with fashion and never take it too seriously is none other than Chantal. Her ever present smile is not the only thing that made me want to go through all her posts the day I discovered her blog, her creative style was the second. She mixes and matches prints, patterns and florals like no other fashionista out there. I love how she adds her DIY tights or other crazy tights to her outfits, given her an ultimate style of her own.

Hope you all had a great week and looking forward to the weekend

Sonia Rykiel x H&M sneak peek

I am not so sure there is much from this collection I will buy. When I heard "knight", "Sonia Rykiel" and "H&M" all in the same sentence. I had a whole different collection in mind, it's not that I mind the colours but was is necessary to have so many of them and so bright? Most of her stuff looks great on the catwalk but I'm not so sure how I will look walking down the street, wearing coloured striped tights paired with a coloured stripped oversize jumper, a coloured beret, topped off with bright plastic bangles. This being said I could see myself in the second oversize jumper (black and white stripes) with black tight and very high heels. Further more, I am sure that many of you will pull pull quite a few of these pieces off and I'm looking forward to discovering them.

Any thoughts? Anything you would run and get?

P.S: Collection will be in selected stored on the 20th February
