INSPIRED STYLE: Primary Bold

Happy Friday!

I must admit that I never thought of pairing red and yellow together, but when I saw this post by Brooklyn Blonde, I knew that I had to re-create my own version of her look. Her look is a more polished look whereas I was recreating a more comfy, not so polished look ;)

Granted, this combination reminds me of mustard and ketchup but this bold ensemble of primary colours works!

What are you plans for the weekend?

Get the look:

Blouse- H&M (old)
Skinnies- Here 
Marc Fisher Sandals- Here
Handbag- Local Boutique | similar here

MY STYLE: A Classic Remix

Happy Sunday lovelies:

Just a quick post to share what I wore to church today. It is somewhat expected that when wearing black and white, the combination is paired with red but I didn't want this outfit to be a cliche. 

Maybe in the future I will pair the skirt with a red top but for today, I remixed this classic combination with yellow.

What are your thoughts about black, white and yellow?

Get the look:
Blazer- Here
Tank- Here
Skirt- Here, Here and even Here
Heels- Here
Bag- Got mine from a local boutique but try this

MY STYLE: Cobalt Spots

I haven't been in much of a dress up mood lately but this past Friday, I had to shake that mood off before I became too comfortable being frumpy. Even though this look was simple, putting it together was not. My migraines from hell are back and they have been kicking my butt so I been less than motivated to look decent. Do you have any natural remedies for migraines?

Fashion News: Sarah Jessica Parker for Manolo Blahnik

Sarah Jessica Parker is designing a collection for Manolo Blahnik

 

Carrie Bradshaw’s ultimate dream may finally come true.
 
Fifteen years after she graced our television screens as the beloved sex columnist in Sex and the City, real life Bradshaw Sarah Jessica Parker is officially launching her first footwear collection for Manolo Blahnik.
 
It should come as no surprise, given Parker’s inextricable link to shoes. “In a silly way, I think it’s what people have expected of me most because of Carrie Bradshaw,” Parker once told Vogue. “Because I got to play that role, I wore a lot of shoes, and by default I learned an enormous amount.”
 
According to British Vogue, Parker looked to “great old-school labels like Charles Jourdan and Maud Frizon” as inspiration for her collection. Bringing her own flair to the design table, she will be offering “something different” that will reflect her personal taste. She expresses, “We’re putting new colours together that people don’t typically do, just beautiful combinations that you wish existed in your closet. And in terms of bags, thinking about that period of the Seventies into the Eighties, what those women were carrying, taking away the bells and the whistles and hardware and really making it about the bag.” And the best part? Her whole collection might not put a huge dent in your bank account. The SJP collection will feature elegant pumps and flats that will range from $200 to $300, with bags around $700.
 
Produced in Europe and New York City, the SJP collection will arrive in the U.S. early next year, exclusively sold through Nordstrom.
