Item Crush: The Leather Skirt

I am lusting hard for a leather skirt at the moment... I have searched and gathered here some of the best skirts that are on the market.  Each totally unique in style, I am rather struggling with the idea of going with one look.  That said, with these being leather, my bank account dictates one is about all I could manage. Dang.

Look What I Bought: Anchor Fluffy Jumper

Today I went to the Stellenbosch Slow Market.  For those that don't know what that is, it is a food and bits and bobs market which is on every Saturday just off the R44 in Stellenbosch. This market is great to come to for a nice brunch, social meet up and a browse the random little stalls.  This is what I found, tried on, loved and bought. It was from a 'vintage' rail and was priced at only R250 (about £18). Bargain!  Im pretty chuffed.  Ahoy sailor.

Style File: Harry

Hello Harry! This is the second post I have done on H (my brother). I made him pose for this style file just before he was driving himself to the station to head up to London. 

 You know when people say 'he/ she was just born cool'? I dont think anyone is born cool.  From my twenty two years of life experience and always looking up to those 'naturally cool' people, (and also through being friends with them), I have learnt that looking cool takes a lot of effort and money. You have to know how to put clothes together and also keep your wardrobe up to date with the latest.... generally speaking anyway.  I would argue that people who argue against me on this one, think that they are cool and dont want to be labelled a try hard.  

Im not saying H is a try-hard or that he looks too put together, but I know, when he put this outfit on, it wasn't just chucked on- it was carefully styled. And who cares- he looks great. Style down to the T. The effort paid off H.
