i love going away..

we're all supposed to wear comfy clothes when we go away, whether it be in a plane, a ship or in a car, we are supposed to wear something comfy.. usually people think of this as daggy, unfashionable clothing, like tracksuit pants and boring jackets.

well here my friends, i am telling YOU how you can update your 'going away' wardrobe to something that will turn heads for sure..

THE USUAL; scene AIRPORT
juicy couture trackie pants
over-sized comfy old shirt
running jacket
ugg boots
hair in a pony
von dutch hat
gym bag

THE UPDATE; scene AIRPORT
black AA n-neck shirt
flannel shirt (or another similar)
brown or black leather jacket
ripped (or un-ripped) jeans
comfy high heeled boots
designer travel bag





................................

THE USUAL; scene CAR TRIP -i actually think this happens because most people think they will not see anyone, so they dress daggy, and also because their good clothes are in packed up.
tight t-shirt
flared old jeans
flat shoes
un-fashionable bag

THE UPDATE; scene CAR TRIP
white AA v-neck shirt
black bandage skirt
strappy shoes (either heels or flats)
black or off-blue blazer
small designer bag (small because you will have most things packed)





...............................

THE USUAL; scene CRUISE SHIP
white pencil skirt
striped navy blue and white shirt
white heels
vintage round sunnies
small white bag

THE UPDATE; scene CRUISE SHIP
Leopard singlet
black jeans or wide pants
white boston bag
black silk scarf
black or white heels

boy meets girl

seeing models or celebs dressing like guys lately? thought they were all suffering from the same 'to-become-a boy' syndrome? then boy (whoops i mean girl), are you slow!
boy meets girl is about embracing the boy in you, throw out the skirts and flowy dresses, and invest in some tailored pants, fitted blazers, and gigantic watches!
but celebrity's aren't the only ones embracing their inner boy, designers all across the globe have taken the fashion-forward step and included the boy look in their latest collections, here are some;

mix it up!

ahh, mix + match, the old favourite that women and girls are too afraid of doing, as they will get it totally wrong.
just mix it up a little!! instead of a simple black skirt with that top, spice it up and add a quirky patterned skirt! you never know, you could be inspiring people are you're seen in the streets. here are 3 photos of how you could 'mix it up' a little, with day to day clothing.




here, pictured with a patterned '80s top and a quirky plaid skirt, you could go out for a quick lunch with the friends!






a floral shirt, wide legged pants and heels, you're ready for a day at work, or school!





and finally pictured here with a floral skirt, and leopard print metallic shirt with a vintage belt, you'll be clubbing 'til dawn!
