Bright eyes.

General Optical's SS11/12 showings definitely had me wanting Summer more than any of the swimwear showings did. Aside from the fact that I'm a die-hard fan of all things Fendi, Jil Sander, Michael Kors, new Bebe and Karl, I have to say that it was certainly refreshing to see some new and original shapes and shades. Far removed from the generic Rayban shape (or that's what we'll call it). I'm definitely in love with the matte finish on some of the Jil Sander pieces - be sure to check more out right HERE.

On top of that - how fantastic are those Fendi runway sunnies!?

YDELUYT Sunnies - Gary Pepper Vintage Sequin Dress - Tony Bianco Dodge Boots

A long overdue outfit for you beautiful people :) Breathe out.

Who remembers my beloved gold YDELUYT sunnies from this post? Well, here they are again in black! I'm so in love with this shape - I can't think why I ever doubted them! They're actually a lot more versatile than you'd think, and they've suited every face shape I've thrown them on (it's the angles - angles in everything fixes everything else). And silver-dipped tips? Who can resist. Get them HERE.

This insane sequined dress is probably the most ridiculous piece of vintage I've ever owned. And I love it. I just need to decide on how I'm going to alter it - as you can see, I'm awkwardly hitching it up and tugging it all over the place to make it look less like a sack on me. When I bought it from the lovely Nicole, I had my mind set turning it into a slouchy cropped sequin tee, but now I'm not so sure! Any suggestions? In any case, the top half is not going anywhere. I love how it walks the line between freak old lady and tween wild child.

The more I look at it, the more I love the sequined leaves.

The surprise I've been speaking of will be unveiled tomorrow! Get excited :)

Hope you've all had a fantastic weekend!

Hot to go.

I think it's safe to say that I'm the new definition of Missing In Action. I graduated from school yesterday (foreverrrr) and the week leading up to that final assembly was a huge mish mash of sleepless fun and tears. And the odd feeling of finished something (even if I do have all my external exams in one short month). So, through all my (many) emotions, I'm saying the hugest sorry known to man for leaving you all unentertained for the past couple of days! I swear I'll have lots of outfit posts up very soon. And that surprise from my last post :)

But for this afternoon, we are hailing sunglasses - they're probably the most transeasonal piece anyone will ever own (Anna Wintour is tangible proof) - my collection has expanded a ridiculous amount over the past month. Bring on Summer. Thus, I was pretty excited when Natalie sent through these shots of the new MINKPINK range of sunnies that don't get any pricier than $39.95. Dead serious. For gorgeously versatile colours and shapes in all cases, I think that is more than an awesome deal.

So, if we were all in love with Miss Bambi in their latest lookbook, we can be in love with all the sunnies she wears too. As evident, I have a soft spot for tortoiseshell.

How gorgeous are they! Check out more HERE.
