H&M S/S 2014

Just a few looks that caught my eye from H&M's Spring/Summer'14 look-book. I particularly love and want the chunky knit sweater featured in the look with the teal colour skirt. Modelled by Monika 'Jac' Jagaciak and photographed by Maciek Kobielski.

ZARA S/S'14

As it has been a while since I have done a more substantial shopping feature I thought what better time to get back to it then when the ever so lovely Spring/Summer '14 collection is available from ZARA. It's no secret that I am a huge ZARA fan, I can't leave the store with have at least buying a handful of pieces but wanting about 80% inside the shop and this season doesn't disappoint. I see a lot of influences from the S/S collections from Prada, Dior, Céline, Marni and Chloé which is great when you might not afford to buy pieces from those designers, you can go to ZARA and buy designer influenced pieces at a fraction of the price- great! I like to see that there is quite an amount of black within the collection, with most shops and designers jumping for white and bright colours for S/S its always a pleasant surprise to see black because its effortlessly classic and is a safe option- which is not a bad thing. So I took the pleasure of having a browse through what's on offer and created my picks from ZARA's collection this season, as can be expected each choice is on my wish-list this S/S!
Happy Shopping.

Why Not

For a while now I have been having a fashion crush on knee boots & over the knee boots, and my main reason for that is because of my long-time following of Christine Centenera's style who wears the over the knee boot oh so well under midi skirts/dresses giving me so much inspiration. But most recently also Miroslava Duma has been wearing a gorgeous pair of over the knee suede boots by Casadei all through fashion month and they really can work with anything. Which brings me to this pair, the 'Why Not' suede knee boots by Tamara Mellon I saw last week on NET-A-PORTER which I absolutely love and want!
