Love this butterfly bangle, it’s BEGGING to be worn with a flowing white maxidress. Think retro summer days on the Amalfi coastline (of which I am a huge fan, I won’t lie, may or may not be building a house there but more about that later). Poolside 50s and 60s glamour. Love slight nod to flower children – just a touch, not too hippie. Also love the fringe bags. Make sure you get yourself a good pair of catseye shades for summer. I’ve been collecting all year! Prada, Dolce & Gabanna and Chanel should do you well. Click here for more of the Accessorize Spring Summer 2011 look.
They’re real royals now! Saw these lovely pics of Kate & Wills just ‘taking a stroll through the country’ like Will’s parents 3 decades ago. Love their ‘contemporary take on a traditional media opportunity’ (via choosing purple, which only royals can pull off – via it being the colour of royalty – On everyone else it just brings the sexually frustrated hippie vibes).
Am sure most of you know CTG’s primary vocation is ‘lounging around in lingerie, eating cupcakes’. It even used to be on my Twitter bio, until I came up with the infinitely more encompassing ‘lives under a rock called Table Mountain’, which says ‘lounging around in lingerie eating cupcakes’ without actually having to say it (explanation not included, perks of being a writer sold separately). So imagine the ’squeals of girlish delight’ upon receiving package from La Senza this morning containing gorgeous preview of their new range (launches 4 August) in the form of cute pin up cards.
Just love their new stuff. Lots of pretty girlie girls things to lounge around in.
You’ll also be thrilled to hear that you can buy 5 pairs of their lovely stretchy knickers for R300. Rush out and take advantage now, for your girlfriend if not yourself, or forever hold your piece. I mean peace. Follow @LaSenzaSA on twitter for more information.
Totally agree with the ladylike elegance thing. Remember when it was in to be all ‘cool and stuff’? (RIP shutter shades / boyfriend jeans) Way prefer this return to the ‘classic feminine archetype’. There is little more classically feminine than a pretty dress, long hair and a glam pair of shades.
That would be my quote across my picture if I were appointed Style Director of Sunglass Hut.
This is Tommy Hilfiger’s son in his new music vid. Right now, T-Hil is reclining in a leather chair in his study at the Hampties, feeling bleak about life.
“I built an empire via my arian vision of clean cut kids on green lawns in collared shirts and my son becomes some wigga who looks like he spent Maths class making notes all over his body with a Pilot fineliner. FML.” – Tommy “Trying To HilFiger It All Out” Hilfiger
Been trying to count how many tats Rich Hill got but I keep getting distracted by him relighting his cigarillo when it goes out. I’ll bet he gets real mad behind the scenes and throws that cigarillo ‘into the bin with force’ (via #whiteboyproblems).
Also wish they’d used a longer corridor to film this in cos the whole three steps forward three steps back thing is making me dizzy, but maybe that is just Rich Hills Skilzz.. While this vid and its content is highly ‘non-aspirational’ for someone like me, I can appreciate that there must be some drunk, stoned chick out there with no self-esteem who might find this guy attractive and / or many ‘lost rich boyz’ ‘out dere’ who ‘feel this bros swag’ and retweet him to their homies.
