01.02.2012- Personal Style

Here's a look at my personal style...

My closet consists of:

Blazers: 1 in black, royal blue, grey, beige and white as well as 2 in navy
Pants: mostly jeans in a dark single color wash like black or dark  blue. Also have a pair of leather trousers from Zara which I love
T-shirts: Have them in a variety of colors mostly white and black. I often buy them in a larger size because I like them to fit loosely since I often wear close-fitting jeans.
Knits: Everything from chunky sweaters to fine knit cardigans. My favorite is a chunky white sweater from Zara that I bought in London
Other tops: 3 loose long sleeve chiffon blouses, a few breton shirts, a button down shirt
Jewelry: Mostly in silver. Men's style watches, armour cuffs, statement necklaces, rings...
Bags/Accessories: I love to wear scarves. My 3 favorites are a thick cashmere scarf by Balmuir that I wear during the winter, a navy fringe scarf from Zara with silver trim and the midnight's owl by Athena Procopiou. Bags vary in size, shape and color. Everything from sequin clutches to large leather totes.

Would describe my style as...

Nothing better than a simple outfit! Jeans, t-shirt, blazer, shoes , bag and that's it

the price to pay

The pyramid or cone bracelets seem to be a clear favorite among the people who post "arm party" pictures. The Eddie Borgo bracelets retail at about 900€, which is way out of my price range so I'll definitely be looking for a more reasonable alternative.

I rarely wear any other bottoms than jeans so after having bought a pair of leather pants from Zara some time ago I've been really tempted to try something new...

... maybe a pair of cords? I really like the ones from Zara (above)

2-1-2012

I never showed you pictures from London, so what better way to start off the new year than by looking back at the best bit of 2011.

We stayed at the Langham which was AMAZING! The rooms were clean, staff was friendly and helpful, breakfast was delicious and service overall was impeccable. There were two power cuts during our stay (they were deliberate, I think they were doing some work across the street). The staff was extremely apologetic about this,  and the power was only off from something like 1 to 5 in the morning so it didn't affect us at all.

Random street corner

 St. Christopher's Place (map) is a wonderful little area in the heart of West End. It's filled with cafes and restaurants as well as shops like Kurt Geiger, Jigsaw and Reiss.

 Yes there is that preppy girl inside of me who loves Ralph Lauren and all of his cable-knit sweaters. Note that this picture is of the children's store. You'll find Ralph Lauren on No 1 New Bond Street and Ralph Lauren rugby on 43 King Street in Covent Garden.

This was by far the best bit of 2011 and I hope to go back soon.
