Leather and Frills

Leather, pleather, wet look. My guilty pleasure. As are frills, bows, metallics. Anything tacky and standoutish. Pair them with tshirts, shirts, plain tops.
Last year I found these amazing Adidas & Missy Elliot silver, frilly hi-tops whilst on holidays in Croatia and fell in love with them. Imagine my delight when my bestie bought them for me at Christmas (ledgeface).

And just this morning I found a pair of leather (faux) and jersey stretch skinnies that I bought in Topshop  for the princely sum of €7 in the sale a while ago. I bought them without trying them on as I was in a hurry. I just tried them on and I am OBSESSED. Already planning many outfits to go with them.
To whit, here they are. Still hiding my face.

A piece of Blake..

2 things I love.
Christian Louboutin and Blake Lively.
One day I will own a pair of Louboutin's (i'm currently toying with the idea of buying a pair of black courts that I will wear again & again and therefore justify the cost, ahem). And I love Blake's style, laid back, chic, young and funky...and, while i'm sure there's a lot more grooming in her appearance than you'd think, she always looks like she's just thrown something together. (well THAT sounded a bit more insulting than i'd hoped...hmm...)

ANYWAY, the man himself has designed a shoe especially for, and named after, the beautiful Blake. And here it is. Imagine...just imagine your favourite designer designing something with you in mind. Le sigh.
