My Style Diary - There's no place like home...

Hello :)

I like to think of these as my "Dorothy shoes".  I always wanted a pair of Ruby Slippers when I was little, and was thrilled when I found these ones a few years ago from Marie Claire.  I'm slightly undecided though about whether I think the red top and shoes is too matchy-matchy, or if I do in fact like it. What do you think?

Speaking of The Wizard of Oz, I'm actually going to my old school's production of it in 2 weeks, which I'm quite excited about. I might just have to pull out my ruby slippers for that too!

I hope you're having a lovely Sunday

Love Lauren

My Style Diary - Don't you see the starlight?

Heya :)

This is one of my favourite tops from Country Road, and I don't think it's made an appearance in a blog post before. My Dad says it looks like "Christmas wrapping paper" ... and I guess he's right in a way... but that's okay with me! I love how the stars add a little fun, but the silky fabric and style is quite dressy (and work appropriate which is a bonus!). The only problem I have with it is that it gets creased so easily! I'll iron it, and about 15 minutes after I've put it on it's all crumpled again! Oh well :)

Moving down, these jeans are also a new favourite. They're from Calvin Klein, and I had my eye on them for ages before I finally nabbed them on sale for 50% off! Calvin Klein jeans, particularly the "Body"  ones are my absolute favourites, because they're so comfy. They really are the best, and definitely worth the splurge (but being the bargain hunter I am, I always wait for the sales!)

Anyway...that's it for today :)

Lots of Love

Lauren

My Style Diary - No Room for the Blues

Last weekend, Tom, my family and I headed down south for a bit of a getaway. It's so beautiful and relaxing down there - going for bush walks, getting cozy in front of the fire, feasting on yummy cheese fondue! 

Weekends in the country call for warm, comfortable, snuggly clothes - and this jumper and scarf are just that. I love cable knit jumpers - I think they look so cozy and classic - particularly in this cornflower blue colour.

I hope that you're having a great weekend!

Currently on my Wish List...

Just a few things that I'm currently lusting after...

1. Forever New "Evie Vintage Maxi Skirt"

Such a lovely blush pink colour

2. Calvin Klein Watch

I've been on the lookout for a rose gold watch for quite some time now, but nothing ever really caught my eye... until today. I caught a glimpse of this beauty while I was in CK (taking advantage of their 40% off jeans sale), and it was love at first sight. I absolutely love the unique cut-out design, and the fact that it is so sleek and simple. If only my birthday hadn't already passed! 

3. Thomas Sabo Rose Gold Heart Pendant 

What can I say...I'm a bit obsessed with Thomas Sabo...

4. Forever New "Elanie Diamante Georgette Dress"

This may not look like much in the picture, but on, it's the perfect "little black dress with a twist". So sparkly!

5. Hourglass "Radiant Light" Lighting Powder 

Supposedly these use "groundbreaking photo-luminescent technology to capture, diffuse and soften surrounding light". I'm not sure about that, but I do know that I was very tempted to purchase it when the girl at Mecca put it on me... It gives a gorgeous but subtle bronze-y glow. 

For now I will try to resist... Will power Lauren will power!!

What's on your wish list at the moment?
