Rihanna / Vogue Brazil / Mariano Vivanco

This is one of my absolute favourite editorials Rihanna has ever done, the setting, styling and theme are perfection personified.

One word to some these pictures up- beautiful.

On My Mind

After doing my weekly internet-window-shopping for the week, checking out what's new on more websites than I care to count I had to share what items stood out for me and are now playing on my mind. I would particularly love to purchase the 'Pyramid Pouch' from Givenchy which gives a modern twist on the clutch giving it more of a practical/day-time use. There is so much to choose from I feel, from designers these days, it seems like each season my wish-lists get bigger and bigger, too much temptation!
Happy Shopping.

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.
