I've been neglecting you

A true fashionista is one whom embraces each season of fashion, who runs their laquered nails over all kinds of fabrics; from soft velvet to light cotton. She is as chiq in Winter as she is in Summer, Autumn and Spring.

Sadly...I have been a very dull fashionista. Flat shoes for two months now!, track pants and hoodies have taken over and all my dresses have been put into a black container (a few containers) that loom over me like a tower. The containers which are aptly black remind me of caskets of the once passionate way I used to dress and now I have laid my lace skirts, halter dresses, grecian frocks to rest.

But it will not be so!, Im gonna make this Winter work for me. I think I shall start with a trip to London and hit the Winter sales...

On my hitlist...

A blazer is essential, must fit and curve with the body like it was tailored just for you, so you might need to try a few on. I am enjoying the play on fabric in the second picture by using lace. Seems quite formal but a nice change from the regular. Dressed down with jeans; my eyes are eagle eyeing this one out.
Cream or black will be stunning.

Frail bow frock; I have tried this one and it is so cute, paired

with nude peep toes and wavy hair.

 I am in Love with this dress, something very classic yet depressing about it. I can see Angelina Jolie pulling this off without a hitch. A bit of a tortured soul needs to wear this one

Loving this trouser; I wouldnt pair it with knitwear unless it was a finer gauge. Colour and cutlines are magnificent

THE ESSENTAIL:

The Messenger handbag, found this one at Zara

 This assymetrical skirt seems to be trending, I was never a fan of the hankerchief style that came and in some cases never left, but this assymetric cutline is romantic if it is made in the correct lightweight fabric like a chiffon; I also feel its
important to be in a ditzy print or moody floral.

MY CHRISTMAS WISH for 2011....A TED BAKER PURSE

Saw this patent black purse at the airport and I had to walk away with a heart sore, but maybe some little giving elf will pop it under my pillow on Christmas day, preferrable black or turq
