Rock Chick

I don’t really like rock concerts, but I do like dressing a tad ‘rock’ once in a while. Am also thinking this outfit would be amaze with a pair of black suede ankle boots….am building up to that purchase because I need to justify buying something ill-designed for hot weather. But then again, fashion isn’t about being comfortable is it?

I love animal print. Leopard, zebra, tiger….you name it, but in small doses. I don’t buy into ‘animal-over-load’ as I call it (leopard top+belt+shoes = offensive leopard explosion)

Zebra Silk Top – QueensPark (similar), Black mini – Mango. Denim jacket – Levis (similar). Patent heels – (similar) Hoops – Accessorize. Belt – local market (similar)

Denim and Print

One of my favourite wardrobe tricks is to add a well-worn denim jacket over a posh or formal dress. It tones the look down and at the same time, funks it up.

Denim jacket – Levis Classic Trucker (old, similar). Dress – Expressions (similar in polka dots). Dusty pink pumps – Nine West Caress. Clutch – local market (similar) Diamond tennis bracelet – generous husband (nothing similar!) Nails – Revlon Shade – Cherries in the Snow

 

 

 

Orange Over-Load

I realise now I am drawn to all shades of orange, especially juicy, bold, bright tangerine. It is such a happy colour. I believe, if it could speak, it would say ‘Hi!!!! come to my place for a seafood BBQ and pool volley ball!” So I have included three orange items today, just because I can.
