Miranda is Making High Fashion Moves

Model Miranda Kerr is expanding her horizons by taking a break from Victoria's Secret and men's magazines, and dabbling in high fashion editorials:


Modeling body-con pieces in Elle US:





Playing the naughty schoolgirl in Numéro:



I think this definitely a smart career move for the "Victoria's Secret sweetheart". Lots of Models like Gisele and Naomi Campbell have been able to find a good balance between high fashion and lingerie/men's mags modeling. And I think Miranda did a great job in these two editorials.

House of Harlow

While doing some online shopping, I came across Nicole Richie's jewelry line House of Harlow 1960. The pieces are sold at an affordable price point and definitely fit my style. While I love bold pieces a great, flashy ring and statement necklaces, I also like simple pieces like a long chain and menswear-inspired watches with subtle sparkle.

I already layer bracelets and bangles. Layering necklaces is one of my favorite ways to accessorize. Now, I want to try layering rings. And I think these stackable rings would definitely do the trick. Ordering as soon as I remember what size ring I wear, hehe:


Horseshoes:

Bangles:

This peacock ring is quite lovely and so are these "feather" earrings:

I love the thinness of the horseshoe bangle and the toughness a leather strap has added to the bracelet on the right.

Hello, lover

It has been wayyyy too long since my last post. But summer finally being here=no studying or exams= more posts. The thought of getting back on track is a tad daunting. A million things have happened, like the Met Gala, resort collections, Karl Lagerfeld's short fim for Chanel, a new creative director appointed at Alexander Mcqueen, etc. So I'll just start off with a pair of shoes that make me happy and sad at the same time:
The Fendi Ballet Wrap sandals



Happy because they're fabulous and remind me of my ballet/ pointe shoe days. Sad because they don't fit into this college student's budget. But some day! :)
