Let's all sing together

WOW! This is absolutely amazing! This is by far the most inspirational street art that I have seen. It is truly wonderful what people can make out of neglected houses and what art can do for the community. I got all emotional when I read what some people wrote down as their wish before they die.

Isn't this amazing!?

You can't stop my shine

Check out this cute bag! This awesome little belt bag made in Japan is available in the colour black and brown and sells for $750. I just love this bag! It's so original.

Write me a bad romance

It's the revolution of the 'lace' dress. Ever since I saw a picture of Emma Watson wearing a Rafael Lopez lace/feather dress I have fallen in love with this look and have been planning to wear something like this for ages! (Only I never really had the balls to show the whole world my bra) But times have changes and I decided to give it a go (My boyfriend thought I was absolutely crazy wearing this but oh well)

Lace top: H&M * Trousers: Vera Moda * Wedges: Aldo

Sorry guys no accessories here, I thought the see-through top was entertaining enough:) So instead of wearing a full lace dress (where everything is visible- I don’t think the full lace dress is appropriate for every day fashion, unless you're a celebrity) I went for some baggy black pants, in order to add some edge to the sexy look that the lace creates and some black Wedges. Sorry guys today I went all black but I'll try to add some colour to my style :)

Celeberity outfit of the week: Fearne Cotton

Fearne Cotton

I love this dress, and as you know prints are BIG this summer (especially mixing them) but this print has something extra special, it kind of reminds me of a math pattern. I'm very fascinated by math patterns (even though I despise math with all my heart) It's just when I look at them I get lost in thoughts and that's where all the good ideas come to me.  

What do you think of her dress?

Hate to stare

Hey everyone! First of all I want to apologize that I didn't post anything yesterday. I had a little accident in the bathroom where I slipped and hit my back against the tap of the shower, therefore I couldn't sit and had difficulties with walking. But all is good now! So I want to start with sharing this awesome new product with you guys. I'M IN LOVE! It is Jeremy Scott's latest collaboration (with Swatch) where he has designed 3 distinct styles which were manufactured in limited quantity totaling to only 777 available watches! So get your fast!! 

My favorite watch is the white one with the wings, I'm absolutely obsessed with this one! (It is one of the so many things on my spring/summer wish list) Can you imagine this watch paired with a short LBD and some killer red heels?! I CAN! Jeremy Scott i love your work! (It would be a dream come true to meet him once)

I will survive

Hey guys, I just want to share my favourite street artist with all of you! SLINKACHU

Isn't this the cutest thing you have ever seen?!

His street project involves the remodeling and painting of miniature model train set characters which he then places and leaves on the street (haha imagine coming across one of them!) The whole idea behind of this is to reflect the loneliness and melancholy of living in a big city, almost being lost and overwhelmed.

I'm in LOVE with these cute colourful heels from Zara! These are definitely on my summer wish list. They will make any dull outfit look up to date and cheerful.

Don't let the bastards get you down

One other spring/summer trend seen on the 2011 catwalks is 'nude', which symbolizes the absence of clothes during hot seasons. Even though this trend isn't as hot as the bright colour trend, do try to buy yourself a tight fitting nude dress (like the one shown below), it will go perfect with a bit of a tan!

You make the call to make my day

One tip for this spring/summer season: try to restrain yourself from buying the usual black or grey clothes, I know it will be hard! Believe me, I'm guilty of always going for the black clothes that I will feel comfortable in. But this summer this is going to change! I have banned myself from buying anything black or grey so that my closet will get a little bit of a colour injection. I encourage you to do the same! you will look so much happier if you're wearing colourful outfits compared to wearing all-black.

Isn’t this the coolest thing you have ever seen! haha It actually took me a while to notice the water inside the bottles, but when I saw that I just had to show all of you guys!

What do you think of this?

I'm a hot ride

This spring/summer is all about colour, and we are not just talking about the clothes here! Yes brightly coloured eye shadows! Of which the most popular colour is: YELLOW! Who would have thought that! This one is going to be a hard one to get used to for me, especially because I am pale skinned and have blue eyes, so the yellow eye shadow will make me look sick, but I’m definitely going to try this one out when I’m a bit more tanned! And when I do I will post a picture of it on my blog.

It's the circle of life

I'm in love with this graffiti piece of the cheetah chasing the dog, so much that I made my own version of it but then on a canvas. I love the fact that the canvas is completely white except for the two figures running at the bottom of it, it's so simple yet very fascinating! At the moment it is hanging in my hallway against a white wall! I just can't get enough of it

Check out this graffiti artist's website, He does a lot of other things such as Typography, print and packaging, street art and illustrations: http://www.artnak.net/index.php?/street/the-chase-is-better-than-the-catchphrase/
