AMuse About

January23rd

Camilla and Marc ‘oh my terrace’ dress, Veronika Maine blazer, Chloe ‘Margaret’ hobo bag, Saba ‘Maria’ platforms, hat from JJ markets, crystal necklace compliments of Mostly Clothes (shop here), Peter Lang cuff.

It’s amazing what a hectic work schedule can do. I barely recall the happenings of the weekdays past and yet the weekends resonate so strongly in my memory. When life gets intense, without a doubt, the first thing I seem to do is think about Saturdays – ones nostalgic and past and the others I eagerly await. It’s such a blissfully self-contained intermission from life’s obligations, wedged beautifully between Friday’s strenuous grind and Sunday’s lazy but equally foreboding air.

The above photos were taken on such a perfect Saturday a couple of weeks ago. There was nothing but the Paddington sunlight specking happiness onto the street’s lush green borders. This simple marvel facilitated my window-posing (the blogger’s version of window shopping) so perfectly, I seized the moment to speckle some attention on some new and old favourites. In the former category, there is the dress I had yet the chance to entertain and the heels I can no longer imagine doing without (love love). In the latter is a piece that has become an affectionate staple in my collection of trinkets, the beautiful necklace Cristina so thoughtfully sent me a couple of months back. I triple love its unapologetic aesthetic, its delicate boldness and of course, its bullet shell casing that makes me feel that little bit bad-ass.

In all the right ways, of course.

    The hat punctuates your silhouette like a “Boho CHIC(icious)” twist of Glam , AND anyway the result never fails to be so freshy, mischievous § exquisite with you I (shyly) must add Dear Kelly (“Kind aesthete’s supportive wink § smile”) !

    I have to admit, despite my craze for bright colors at the moment, this will probably be my favorite color combo… forever. The necklace and cuff are absolutely gorgeous. So jealous of the sunny summer weather!
