Alexander Wang poplin shirt

I discovered this blog not long ago and some of the DIY projects are pretty amazing but my favorite DIY project was transforming a man’s white shirt into Alexander Wang’s off the shoulder poplin shirt and the end result is perfect. More so, she makes it look pretty easy and works her off the shoulder look with a very cute leather skirt.

Sequin skirt dressed down

Source: (via fuckyeahfashionn)

I might not be sequins number one fan but I do think a little black (or silver if you can pull it off) sequin skirt under a man’s jumper, a simple T-shirt or even a jean shirt. The latter downplay the sequins skirt whilst the sequins bring a something a bit different to these basis items.

I absolutely love the way this Spanish fashionista pairs her sequin mini with a striped top, ankle boots and trench. Perfection!

How would you wear your sequin mini?

Have a great Friday!

Crochet jumpers

They might remind us of our grand-mothers but nonetheless crochet jumpers made a comeback this summer and fashionistas all over quickly caught up with the trend.

Someone else that quickly caught up the trend and in a colourful way, was H&M. They came up with this crochet jumper à la Sonia Rykiel. I really like the way Coline pairs hers with simple dark denims and suede boots.

Thrown over a good pair of tights or over a pair of leggings, it’s a nice substitute for a dress.

But most of the time, the crochet jumper is used to soften an already edgy outfit (Elin Kling) or a spakly one. Love the way it’s tucked into a high-waist leather skirt or over an black harem sequin pants.

Fur collar

Source: TheSartorialist

Love this picture, and ever since I saw it I have 1) gone digging for my old brown tweed jacket and 2) gone on a wild hunt for the perfect little fur collar/wrap. I cant decide on the size nor can I decide on the colour. But I do love i over a black cardigan, a green trench or a tweed jacket so I am looking forward to finding the perfect one before winter is over, preferably.

Again, ebay seems like a good place for a fur collar or try any thrift shop.

Hope you enjoyed the post.
