Lip Service: Pretty Coral Lips for Spring




Spring is looming and this means the return of bright lip colours. Coral lipsticks and lip glosses are perfect to transition from winter to spring. What's great about coral lips is that there are shades to complement pretty much all skin tones, it is wearable for any occasion, and it is a refreshing change from your typical pink or red lipstick.

Coral lips are very big for spring. Many women are cautious about wearing coral because they’re worried it will look too bright or barbie like. I believe there’s a perfect shade for every woman. The secret is finding the right shade that will work for you and your skin tone.

Let’s get straight into my lip gloss weakness, shall we? Summer is made for coral, I love coral lips! It’s bright, sexy, and a screams summer all the way.

I have added some pics so you guys can have a look at there new 2010/2011 Catalog. The photos are really stunning...need to get me a pair of SALSA jeans!!

Touch of PINK...

Accessories: Sass diva/Fossil

Doggies:Pluto & Rocco

This past weekend I fell in love....with Forever New, I had been wanting to visit the store for a while now but have had no time as the store is quite a drive. But it was well worth the wait!!

I walked in and felt right at home...I must be honest the store is quite addictive:) actually I would call it dangerous....to my pocket and insanity! This Aussie brand embraces all things feminine and chic. I'm loving there lace embellished blouses and skirts as well as their floral accessories. Most of their clothes are set in powder pinks, light turquoise, beige, colours which are easy to wear and great to mix with a pair of jeans or leggings.

There accessories collection is definitely something to boast about, featuring bags with bow detailing and pearl embellishments as well as Cloche hats, wool scarves and beautiful leather gloves which add to the vintage look.

Anyways, after doing some shopping I had lunch with a girlfriend and later finished watching the Sex and the city box set.

In seems you can conquer the world in one weekend;)

Shoe Porn

Finally back from my 3 day absence..and no I didn't go away on a fabulous island holiday. I was stuck at home sick with a weird flu virus..which I am still being treated for. So happy Monday to me:(

But no worries i am a tough cookie and I'm fighting it!! Before being hit with this horrific condition, I went shopping this weekend and came across a pair of sandals,similar to the ones above. I simply fell in love... I can't believe I found a picture that I could share with you:), because silly me i didn't have my camera with me. I'm still contemplating on buying them..they got me all exited for summer! The chains add glamour and *bling* to the denim...as you know I love denim,as seen in this previous post.

Hope you all have a good rest of your week!

3 - day weekend!




Well I hope everyone in South Africa had a great long weekend,Happy Women's Day to all the ladies:) I decided to take the weekend and make it all about me! I got dresses up, did a bit of shopping and sorted out my wardrobe...which to be honest has been long over due. Finally bought a pair of Brogues, I couldn't find the perfect tan pair so I gave in and bought this checked black and white pair.

My friend Pamy was oh so kind to borrow me the Sex and the city Complete series box set...big mistake..I'm hooked I tell you...I'm loving it though!!
I secretly stayed in the rest of the weekend watching it!

Have a great four day week!
