The mac


So here's one of those items that I can say my mum made me buy or actually begged me to buy before I went on holidays and for which I really should thank her as it turned out to be a great find!
It's just a simple black mac but I absolutely love it. I dropped it into my suitcase after she told me I should probably take a light jacket with me and I'm actually really glad I did. I never owned a mac before and never actually thought of trying one on but I really like this one from H&M because it's light and a little slouchy rather than tailored and structured and it's been a blessing to have one here on holiday with me as the weather was really not as warm as I expected and I got tired of wearing my varsity jacket over and over again for a few days.
In general I must say I've been really lazy, with my suitcase only arriving yesterday I found myself happily relying one skirt, one jacket and two t-shirts but today has been a little cold and the mac which came with my suitcase yesterday, was very handy for all the running around I had to do as the weather was so unsettled for most of the day  and I'd really be happy if I get more use of it when I return to England although at the moment it doesn't seem like it's going to happen soon with the weather at the moment but I'm trying to keep being positive and hope the long winter will end soon.

Spring vibes


I go out one sunny weekend afternoon and come back with all sorts of bright and shiny items ? Well, it might just be the combination of the first week of March and the somewhat sunny weekend that made me feel slightly relieved that the winter is almost behind us. It's still cold outside but it didn't deter me from trying out a new pair of sunglasses (H&M , I can't bear buying expensive sunglasses because I always end up losing them) this progressed on to some nail polish and ended up with this bright red semi-transparent bag that I couldn't avoid. I mentioned last week that I quite like the clear accessories trend and this bag definitely caught me, it's different from the sort of handbags I would usually buy and red is probably one of those colours I usually not go for but this bag totally got me and I'm actually looking forward to using it to add a little bit of colour to my outfits !

Simple and cool - Maje Spring/Summer 2013 lookbook

Simple and cool - Maje Spring/Summer 2013 lookbook

This is an amazingly chic, simple and cool lookbook from cult French label Maje.If I had to think of my ideal summer wardrobe this is how I imagine it would be, with a cool mix of prints, simple and chic t-shirts and dresses and a whole lot of black, grey, khaki and blue which seem to be my favourite colours at the moment. I absolutely love this lookbook and if I only could I would run straight into the nearest Maje store and get all of those lovely pieces for myself. I think it would be safe to say that some of those pieces will be worth the investment because they have this simple and chic vibe that can stand the test of time and seasonal trends.
