OOTD: The Clash

This outfit was a new combination for me, I've had these Topshop cigarette trousers for about a year now and still love them, but I can never seem to pair them with anything exciting, it's always the same monochrome looks. So when I put them on this time, I looked in my wardrobe, grabbed a few different items that stood out and put it all on. A black cami top, tartan belt, blue cropped jacket and a pair of heeled loafers; and there we have it, an updated outfit!

Here's just a few ideas of how you could create a similar look using a clash of patterns and colours.

Princess Couture : Elie Saab SS14

This morning was all about tuning in to the live feed of the Elie Saab Spring/Summer 2014 Haute Couture show, and as predicted, it lived up to and went beyond all expectations. In my opinion, it was the ultimate fairytale collection; fit for a princess. Sheer fabrics, fabulous embellishment and a classic colour palette were just a few key elements that made these designs so exquisite. Such feminine and elegant designs with an immaculate attention to detail, empire waistlines and plenty of draping in pastel and ombré shades; Saab moved out of his comfort zone whilst preserving his classical style of dress. A goddess-like collection with an unforgettable finale.
