Styling the Boyfriend Coat

Trending at the moment is the ever glamourous boyfriend coat, this trend is a simple and easy way to dress your outfit up. Who would have thought that keeping warm would be so accessorising. 

Above I have put together two variations of this trend.

#1 is paired with washed out boyfriend jeans by Lee jeans and a leather crop by Dion Lee. Although the jeans keep it casual the leather crop keeps it sexy. Black on black gives the outfit edge while the pale pink pumps by Giussppe Zanotti  and clutch lady-fy this attainable outfit. 

This is a must for the upcoming winter months. I love this black coat by Topshop, quiet affordable at under $100 AUD

I added a mild accessory that of a Marc Jacobs (Amy Dexter Glitz) with pastel coloured diamond detailing - definitely on my winter wish list. 

#2 is pair with a slim fit dress, this sexy navy number is a Zimmerman piece, which is paired with YSL ankle boots which dress this outfit up. I love this pale pink theme running through these two outfits, The pale pink is so lady like and gives the outfit a soft touch. And lastly, the Celine Phantom (OMG!) What outfit is not complete with this amazing creation. 

The above is my interpretation of how i would style my boyfriend coats this winter. The key here is to introduce the trend as a subtle feature of your outfit or have it be the statement piece bringing your outfit to life. 

Let me know how you would style your boyfriend coats, I'd love to see what you come up with!

Unlikely Style Muse: Kim Kardashian

I thought I'd start a new edition, that looks at the people I have found style inspiration from - those who I may have not considered previously and some who cause a stir. I don't discriminate based on their character when it comes to deciding whether someone looks good, because if you look great I don't care who you are.

I'm a big Kardashian fan but at times i have found myself loving or loathing Kimmy K. Lately however, her style has been admirable, she ha become some what of a style icon for me, she keeps things classy yet so sexy. And has made an astonishing style transformation, toning down the over-clash of bright colours and keeping things simple  yet elegant is a rounded definition of how i see style. Now that is not to say that her fashion choices are not point of objection and controversy. 

She has made curvy sexy, and her outfit choices have complimented her figure perfectly. She has really become a style icon. 

I have picked my top 9 favourite Kimmy K style moments!

LOOK 1.

       I'm a self proclaim white on white lover, and it

 takes guts for a curvy girl to pull it off and Kim has

made me love it more! I love co-ord pieces

there really hot right now and simple.

LOOK 2.  

I love these pastel colours matched with

an oversized coat.  I love the pastel teal high-waisted

skirt, that mermaid tails at the end shows elegance,

 while still keeping it Kim with the tight fitted  crop.

 Love it! I love Kim variety of over-sized coats,

she really styles them right, this one in particular.  

 LOOK 3. 

Not normally a fan of metallics but this pieces is so

 beautiful. The mild sheerness of the outfit say sexy

but not trashy. She has really works this

 one out. The crop keeps things cute.

               

LOOK 4. 

This outfit is so simple yet so sophisticated. 

White shirt, black pants and nude heels. 

Kimmy has done it right again. The cut of both 

pieces compliment her figure, tight and revealing 

where necessary sculpting her best features. 

LOOK 5.

One of my all time favourite outfit ever worn
 by Kim. The transparent top is kept subtle
by the length of her sleeves and the high
neck line. I love how she pull of a tight
maxi, yet again embracing her curves.
White all the way. 

LOOK 6. 

I love the pale pink this Autumn, and although

 the seasons are different here to the USA,

 it still works all year round. I love the cut 

and style of this outfit, the skivvy/ high-neck

 lines are are so in right now and she wears

 this trend so well. And again her curves

 are being showcased in this hot tight high-waisted 

skirt.

LOOK 7. 

This cinderella style gown is so beautiful.

 Keeping the piece simple in cut, but so flattering. I love red, 

on Kim she holds it so beautifully. 

LOOK 8. 
I love Kim's relaxed airport look. She looks
 so stylish but so comfortable. and again 
the monochrome trend is ageless, its for any 
age and figure as long as you wear the 
correct style of clothing in the places you
 desire to flatter or tone down. So basic, but very
 effective. 

LOOK 9. 
And finally, The last look for the evening. I love 
vintage lace look, giving this dress a classy feel 
but the sheerness and transparency of her dress 
matched with the fuller underclothes are becoming
 a trend, one that I'm not so brace to try yet, 
but one that Kim makes look effortless. I love the 
mermaid hem it creates such elegance and
 creates an illusion of a fuller womanly figure and 
skinner legs. 



What are your favourite Kim fashion moments? Or who is your latest fashion crush that you wouldn't have thought to be?
Let me know :)

My New Lover

BOBBI BROWN

It becomes a crime when you ignore the facts. Quality, Sophistication & Perfection.

When a price tag screams over-priced, I tend to run the other way. However, I bit the bullet and made a purchasing pursuit that punctured my uni student income, but I am please to say that it was love at first application. Bobbi Brown where have you been all my life! 

As some of you may know, I have been suffering from aggressive acne which has lead to minimal to severe scarring. Finding an effective concealer has been a tortuous journey, but I've finally found the one. 

Bobbi Brown is a household name, but I had never gussied up to make the purchase, because of the price and bad past experiences with other higher end make-up brands. I had my eye on these products for some time now, And I'm a fool for not purchasing them sooner. 

It is worth the investment. And here's why!

Creamy & smooth application, anti-bacterial factors, consistent coverage & perfect colour matching.

Enough said.

1. Bobbi Brown's: Corrector in Bisque 

Applied first before concealing, the corrector acts as liquid-paper essentially giving you a blank, fresh canvas to start with. Depending on your individual discolouration wit determine the tone of corrector. As I have a blue/purple tint to my dark circles I have a peachy, warmed toned correctors. Others with a more green or brown would look at using a yellow based corrector. (Just a tip if you were curious, helped me...) 


2. Bobbi Brown's: Creamy Concealer & Sheer Finish Pressed Powder in Natural Tan & Pale Yellow...

Although I've been told I don't really need an under eye cream. It works a charm when I have had a rough night or the ordeals of a long and dreary week show up as suitcases under my eyes. So highlighting and uplifting. Perfect for when your going for a more fuller and flawless coverage look. 

3.Bobbi Brown's: Face Touch Up Stick in Natural Tan (425) 

With anti-bacterial properties, what more could I ask for. Treating acne whilst wearing make-up is a blessing. Because my scarring is red/blue I have found it hard to find a perfect concealer. Going for cheaper, chemist sold brands were always my safe haven, but I soon realised that quality comes at a price, not news to many I assume... 
Perfect for all-day coverage, lasts and isn't oily. With a full face of make-up or alone, works a treat, blends perfectly and has lasted for me without the need to powder set. 

That is my debut of my newly purchased Bobbi Brown Concealer range. I hope this has helped. 
I will be posting a few more of my "2014 Fave's So Far" soon, so Check in again soon jelly beans. 


Peace.
