How to wear a silk scarf

I have been wearing my silk scarf recently, but wondered what other styles I can make so that it always looks fresh and stylish. And it looks like my wish has been answered when I came across this fantastic instructions cards by the famous Hermes. Isn't this brilliant!

Also check out MaiTai's Picture Book blog, which I have recently stumbled across. This site has amazing tutorials on how to knot scarves and use scarf rings to create beautiful styles. Enjoy. xoxox

Military Trend your A/W 2012 Style

One of the major style trends for this A/W 2012 is the so called Military Trend. This style fits itself so perfectly to the this season. With practicality, warmth and smart aesthetic at its core, you can look stylish and warm at the same time. The main features will be on khaki tailored separates, utility detailing and leather accents as seen on the catwalk designs of Burberry Prorsum, Max Mara and Topshop Unique. I love this style and I can see myself rocking up this trend this Fall. So lets welcome the Autumn with open arms and stay fabulously stylish!

Fall inspiration

What a great inspiration this one is. With so many apples in the garden this Fall this is a great idea to use them up. I love the use of the tree twigs, that is so original. I will definitely be making some this weekend.

Burberry Prorsum Womeswear A/W 2012

Good Monday my beauties. Hoping that your week is starting on a fabulous high. For me I have spent the morning viewing Burberry Prorsum Fashion show. One of my favourite designers without a doubt. Loved the clothes, the setting, the music and the finale. I won't let you in on much as it would spoil the show. But for sure is worth seeing!

Also they used amazing music to complement the show so well. One of my favourites was Rae Morris and the track Walls, check it out. Thanks Burberry for this wonderful gift.

Pina Colada Please!

Lets welcome the weekend with one of my favourite cocktails of all times, Pina Colada. A delightful combination of pineapple, rum and coconut cream. This drink reminds me of warm weather, sandy white beaches, and gentle warm sea. And since the weather forecast for this weekend is supposed to be rather sunny, lets celebrate with the one and only Pina Colada cocktail. See recipe below. Have a great start to the weekend my beauties. Love. xoxo

Ingredients:

• 120ml of pineapple juice
• 90ml of rum
• 60ml of coconut cream
• 2 cups of crushed ice

Preparation:

Pour all of the ingredients into a blender. Blend briefly at high speed. Strain into a glass and serve. Garnish with a slice of fresh pineapple if you wish and enjoy!

Chandeliers everywhere!

In the bathroom, in the kitchen, in the bedroom, in the dining room, chandeliers everywhere. I am truly obsessed with anything that comes down the ceiling and sparkles. Chandeliers can truly transform the look and feel of a space. Believe me, my future home will definitely feature at least some of these somewhere. Have a great Friday and hope you enjoy these as much as I do. Ciao. xoxo
