I don't just love Isabel Marants SS11 collection I frigging love it and feel so inspired. I brought these fab pants from H&M it was a toss up between candy pink or these the pink were more IM but I always like to put my twist on the look so I went for orange. I am still on the look out for candy pink denim shorts I even checked out Isabel Marant on Net A Porter but they had sold out.

Last week I got a message from the gorgeous Melissa of Princess and the Pea saying that there was the most amazing fringed kimono that had just arrived on the Topshop website I could'nt believe my eyes when I saw it straight into my basket it went and I was checking out. A few hours later it had literally sold out. Anyway when it arrived it was even more beautiful than the picture on the website it is by far my most favourite item of clothing that I own ever.
I decided to team it with more fringing oh and feathers :) what the heck but this is going to be awesome in the summer thrown over everything.

I love kimonos it is a shame they are so hard to find as they go with everything and add an interesting twist to an outfit. I have noticed Topshop have a few in at the mo but I want fringing and lots of it so I am holding out and hoping they might get some with fringing in they have used them in their campaign so fingers crossed.

I could not wait to wear my new purchase I love the big puffy sleeves it is going to be a fab piece for the summer teamed with cut offs. Talking of summer I am enjoying seeing the new collections hitting the stores at the moment so nice to see fresh stock we have had a few nice pieces in and I can see that their is going to be a lot of colour around for S/S11. I am also excited as my camera finally arrived and I spent yesterday getting used it and reading the very boring but necessary manual.

It has been super busy at work people have been shopping like crazy in the Christmas sales but yesterday the town was a little quieter and I actually managed to get a full lunch break so it was my time to have a shop I brought this stunning kimono from Topshop check it out here, the gorge tassel bag from Label Lab ohh and the necklace which was not in the sale from Dorothy Perkins they have awesome pieces of jewellery defo worth checking it out here.
I decided to buy bits that I can use in the summer too I am also into feathers at the moment I think they will give a cute boho twist to summer outfits. I am buying every kimono I can find I think they will look fab teamed with cut offs in the summer and I am relying on Toppers for some great ones.
I want to leave you with some inspirational pictures from the Topshop Christmas 2010 Campaign I find these images a great inspiration for my S/S wardrobe even though they are for winter.

Christmas time is a time to be girly dont you think. I brought this dress so long ago I cant even remember when but I do know that I have never worn it. I knew I wanted to wear my kimono and I also knew that I did not really want to wear pleather trousers at Christmas then I remembered this dress I had to dig it out of the bottom of the cupboard and iron it I think they were made for each other.
I am back to work today the last couple of days have been so wonderful I hate the come down of Christmas oh well at least there are plenty more to look forward too :)))

I mentioned a couple of posts ago that I am on the hunt for kimonos and after much searching and a lot of loses on ebay I have found an ebay seller with the most amazing collection and they are super cheap and are buy now so no disappointment check them out here. The hardest thing is which one to pick I know I will be back for more oh and dont be put off by the size the one I am wearing is perfectly fine.

I am on the hunt for kimonos but they are like gold dust. Their have been some beautiful ones on ebay but I have had no luck winning them. I found this in Topshop check it out for yourselves here last week and it is the nearest thing to a kimono I have seen on the High Street so I snapped it up. I have a feeling kimonos are going to be a hot item for S/S11.
I asked you guys to ask me a question here I am going to answer Purdey from Kittenish Behaviour and Jade from OMG Jade's Blog's question they wanted to know how I style my outfits the night before or quickly in the morning?
I tend to have a little think before I go to bed about what I am going to wear as I only have a small amount of time in the morning to get dressed. It is easy for work as I have a very beautiful Nicole Farhi working wardrobe so I just add accessories. For special nights out and special occasions I plan well ahead for instance my outfit for my sisters wedding was planned about about 9 months in advance.
Purdey also asked me what my dream job is?
I have a few dream jobs I would love to be a stylist, a visual merchandiser or my biggest dream to own my own vintage boutique.
