[The Finer Details] Delicate Jewellery

For quite some time now I have taken a more delicate touch to my accessories. I love the subtlety of such delicate pieces, it's more intriguing. I have kept things fine and simple with the help of a few amazing jewellery designers and random little market finds. No matter how you do it, whether it's bare and minimal, stacked and layered or beachy and bohemian you just can't go wrong. Hope this post gives you a little inspiration!

I have fallen in love with Catbird! Their pieces have a beautiful hand quality finish to them and a rawness that keeps them casual enough for everyday wear. Investing a little extra in your everyday jewellery saves you in the future and allows you to get on with the chores and activities without worry about the gold plating wearing off or stones falling out.

There are so many ways to wear these pieces, have a play and experiment with all the combinations you can imagine. Here are some of my favourite designers creating delicate dainty treasures:

Catbird, Kirtstin Ash, Love Gold, Jennifer Zuener, Mary John, Sydney Evan, Ariel Gordon, Sophie Bille Brahe

Here are a couple that you can have a little more fun with (without feeling too guilty or hurting the bank account):

Luvvi9, The Dark Horse, Gorjana, Pigeonhole, Anthropologie

[There's Something About Mira] SS14 RTW

I have followed Mira Duma's style for years now- back when she had long locks and before the big baby bump. There is something about Mira that captivates not only me but many street photographers, bloggers, magazines and the A- listers of the fashion world. Her style is unique but I think it's something more, the way she exudes this style and the way she carries herself.

Whatever it is, she always seems to get it right! These are Mira's looks from the Spring/Summer 2014 RTW fashion weeks around the world.

Do you have a favourite?

Love

[Street Style Trends] SS14 RTW

So as most of you know the Spring/Summer 2014 ready-to-wear collections have been hitting the catwalks of New York, Milan, London and Paris (which you can see in an upcoming post!). I'm just as excited and interested about what's happening on the streets before and after the shows as the shows themselves. It's when you get to see individuals creating their own runway in their own style. As usual there are a few trends that pop up on the streets, this post highlights 3 of them- "Plaid", "Overalls" and "Simplicity". Some are even nailing to two trends at once! I've also added a few extra unique looks that grabbed my attention.
