Grandma's shoes

 I have no idea what that shadow is, but it's a bit funky ; )

Zara tee

Marcs shirt

Bardot skirt (simliar ASOS versions here, here & here)

Vintage heels (simliar exxy stunner here)

When I spotted this skirt I had to have it... I didn't care if it fitted, suited me, whatever... I was instantly in love with those pretty blush pink pleats! 

NOW to the shoes, these suede heels are from my Grandma- 1950's originals.  How AMAZING are they!  And I might add that both my Grandma and my YaiYai (Greek for Grandma) are amazing style icons and wonderful role models to me.  My YaiYai passed away about 15 years ago now but I still remember her so well.

Do you have a stylish Grandma?

Why not join me on FACEBOOK .... would love to see your there!!

Thailand- I like short shorts

Kept it simple today- short shorts and some pretty flowers : )  There were beautiful flowers everywhere at Koh Samui! and usually at least one a day would end up in my hair.

Tutu & leopard spOts

I am indeed wearing a TUTU, a pretty sedate one I admit it, nothing too crazy going on here, but a bit of fun nonetheless ; )  None of my usual chain stores had a tutu, and a girl has to have a tutu, so I found this one online for an exceptionally good price.  I got to twiiiiiiirrll my way to dinner : )  Last time I wore a tutu was at a ballet recital when I was about 8 y/o- it was pink, it had layers, and layers of tulle, and it was wonderful! 

The ginormous clutch I found at Asos, another recent online purchase- gee WIZZ.  I love it, all leather annnnddd it fits everything in it.  OH and the beautiful blue crystal is from Swarovski in lovely Vienna <sigh>.

Moomba & DIY

It's the Moomba Festival this long weekend in Melbourne, and it's HOT! Hubby and I grabbed our push bikes and headed in to join in the day's events.  These pics are in one of the fabulous graffiti lane ways in Melbourne.

The bracelet on my wrist I MADE! Learnt how to do this at HonetlyWTF.  I'm making more, experimenting with different size and colour hex nuts.

last days of summer

Well it's the last weekend for the summer so headed to St Kilda with my hubby to soak up the atmosphere and enjoy the coffee, cake shops and fantastic people watching.

I have had this skirt about 3 years and never worn it! What an idiot- because I really like how it looks.  Wearing with my cutie pie clog sandals and basic white shirt. 

Skirt: Mink Pink, Shirt: Marcs, Shoes: Sportsgirl, Bracelet: gift 

Mind the gap

Back in Melbourne and catching the train into the city for lunch with friends.  Wearing a Topshop bodysuit with this really great version of a denim skirt, cute wedges and my Harrods bag.  The belt was a great bargain from Marcs during the January sales- less than half price at $19- yay! and it's all holes so works at any size.

Pompeii

23 July 2010
Well this was the hottest day of all at 45 degrees Celsius and time for a fascinating tour of the city of Pompeii.  I picked up this little white top at Zara in Barcelona- just the thing and the audio-guide makes the perfect accessory ; )

The view behind me in the second picci is the Almalfi Coast- just a little glimpse.

Rome

22 July 2010
Rome! It got even hotter, so another day for the denim shorts- we madly rushed around Rome seeing as much as we could.  Here I am on the Spanish Steps and also looking extremely happy to see the Trevi Fountain.
