Designer cake?

I love accessories..especially luxury ones. But, i am not so crazy about them to the point id want a 'shoe cake' or a 'bag cake' or a cake of my favorite designer item. I honestly do not understand the fascination with these sort of things. I have no clue when it became trendy. Even though i  am not crazy about them, i have to admit that there are some that are well done..and others that look like cat vomit.

This Chanel one is actually very nice..its one of the best ive seen so far..




The others below look very horrible to eat lol




oh dear!
                     

                       






looks weird..but alright from a creative point of view?










Not as horrible


Quite frankly, I  like to keep things a little simple. Eating a cake should not be that difficult. I would not want to assess my cake based on creativity, presentation and closeness to design/architecture..i would just want to..well..simply eat my cake. It isn't that serious really. Here's to keeping things classy :)

What Sunday looks like :)


Art on a Birkin?




Beautiful handbags are an amazing accessory to add to any outfit. I am all for splurging on a nice bag but only if i am absolutely crazy about the design. Birkins, have now become a must have item for all splurging fashionistas out there. Birkins have a $10,000-plus price tag and a legendary waiting list, which is why it is not surprising that the high demand has created a market out there for fake birkins.




I have never understood why people are so crazy about birkins..and would probably never understand why. Beauty they say is in the eyes of its beholder. What totally goes over my head however, is birkin customisation using graffiti or some other kind of 'art'. That totally eludes me.






I understand that if people have spent thousands of dollars on a handbag, with money they have worked hard for, then they should be allowed to do whatever they wish. However, i think graffiti/art on a birkin is just tacky and quite frankly, very annoying to look at. People do crazy things to stand out or to be different but the ones that usually are different/ stand out, do so quite effortlessly.

What do you think? Do you think this is tacky or the ultimate tag of luxury?

Easy Ways To Instantly Look More Fashionable


Looking fashionable isn't always about wearing the trendiest, most expensive clothes, or mastering some complex styling trick. Sometimes its as easy as just tucking in your shirt or throwing on a pair of sunglasses. here are a few simple tips to help you be more fashionable.



Biker Girl

A good motorcycle jacket improves every outfit; it doesn't matter if it's jeans and a T-shirt, a formal gown, or gym clothes. Black leather is the classic choice, but it's not a must. Colors, prints, embellishments, whatever! It's all good.


Cape Town

Wear your jacket on your shoulders. Don't think of your jacket as a jacket. Think of it as a cape with sleeves. Sleeves you are never EVER to put your arms into.

Layer Up

The more layers you have, the less likely any one piece is to really make or break your outfit, so go crazy—a coat over a jacket, over a mesh shirt, over a crop top. With a belt. And leather leggings. Under a skirt. You're an onion. A fashionable onion

Best Foot Forward

Whatever you would normally choose for footwear, choose the opposite. Trade your high heels for flat booties, your sneakers for high heels, and your sandals for sneakers. The more wrong it feels, the more right it is.

Glam Shot: Gaga

I have never been a fan of lady gaga's style. Its never been my cup of tea. However, she is looking absolutely stunning in this ensemble. I am a sucker for vintage fashion and accessories and gaga slayed this look right here. A lovely twist to the trendy 'white' colour this summer. J'adore

Bright Suits

I love trouser suits. When the fit is right and when accessorised properly of course. Every woman should have at least one bright coloured trouser suit. As long as it fits perfectly and its accessorised properly, any woman would pull the look off. Its sexy, feminine, and yet effortless. Here are a few favourites of mine.

All three women didn't go overboard with accessories.Even though the suits are colourful, they still managed to make it look minimal. And that my friends is how to pull off this look. :)

Waist length braids and a whole lot of sun

Summer in England is here and i am so loving it. I don't get any summer break but all the same i have been basking in the sun and getting a lovely tan. It often gets really hot and uncomfortable at this time of the year so i decided to change my hairstyle to something hassle free. Long box braids came to mind. I have been having fun with it so far. Below is a photo of me in my braids. I was on my way to the toy shop bar in Putney to have cocktails with the girls. 





Lovely ambience..tasty cocktails:)
