Jeepers-Creepers. I Want To Cover My Peepers.


I'm in the market for a new pair of sunglasses. What brand of sunglasses do I spy on immediately? Rayban. Good, old, classic Rayban. Nothing wrong with them. I can't get enough of their aviators. But, in the back of my mind, I am thinking: 'there is really more to sunglasses than aviators.' Indeed. There is.

So, let me introduce three reasons to pick sunglasses that are not Rayban aviators. Who is with me?

1. Ever wanted cat eyes? They are all the rage. Don't bother with plastic surgery. Instead, cover your peepers with those ASOS red frames. That should do the trick.
2. Think Miuccia Prada is cool? Buy those curly-wurly-absolutely-amazing sunglasses. Then you can be just as cool as Miuccia. Remember, I said just.
3. The classic debate of Rayban vs. American Apparel. Go for AA. They need the business after all. They are also quite similar to the pair Abbey Lee is wearing. Enough said.




The sunglasses I am especially lusting after? Those Prada's.

P-O-P


As much as I love this time of the year, I fear all this Christmas Spirit (or maybe it's just the mulled wine) has affected my brain, somewhat. I am making silly mistakes, that I know I wouldn't make in the Spring (I probably would make the same mistakes, but it's always reassuring to blame something, yes?). Therefore, when I saw Karen Elson with her bouncy hair on the cover of Vogue Nippon (February 2011), I knew, I had to post it.

Pure Pop-screams the cover! Pure Pop, it sure is. Draped in colourful Prada (Spring 2011), this Vogue Nippon cover clears some of the Christmas-sy fog which is currently lingering inside my head.




Of course, I then had to skip over to Style.com and reacquaint myself with the Prada Spring 2011 collection. Big, bold & beautiful. The fog is clearing minute by minute! Prada, Spring 2011? Yes, please!




Do you like the colourful cover, as much as I do? And are you also suffering from Christmas brain?

Blue & White Beauties

Rodarte, Prada and Roberto Cavalli. Blue and White. Beautiful, beautiful patterns.

These blue and white pieces remind of dinner plates that my grandparents had. The plates were blue and white and they told an amazing story. That Rodarte skirt (on Keira Knightley) tells a story. That Monkey Prada top tells a story. That Roberto Cavalli to-die-for dress tells a story. I truly love these pieces. And, you?



PS. Sorry for the break in between posts, time is just running away from me this week!
