Designers Remix

My fave two shots from the new campaign by Designers Remix. Theres something about prints that I cannot resist. I love this printed shirt and trouser look on a black base.

The Shoulder Look

I love the blazer over the shoulder look, not that I wore it like that when I walked out of my house (its 8 degrees outside). Well tailored blazers add a city-chic look to every wardrobe. They can be worn with shorts and a tshirt during hot summer months, trousers and a sweater in the winter. The Zara blazer I'm wearing in this photo is a minimalistic staple for me. I like the details of this blazer such as the leather collar and inner panel, shoulder pads and pockets. I softened this smart look by wearing my faded Ksubi jeans and folded them till the ankles.

Winter Brew

As much as we hate the chilly winter breezes and the desperation of craving warmth as we step outside our homes, we usually tend to welcome Winter with excitement. Christmas, exchanging presents, ice skating, mulled wine and fur coats are some of our reasons to look forward to the turn of the season.
I'm super late posting this, but I wore this outfit a few weeks ago. Being able to play around with a variety of warm accessories to create different looks is my favourite part about winter. I love wearing hats at this time of the season and usually shop from the Hat Gallery, Portobello Market or Eugenia Kim. With this look I wore a Russian style cossak hat by Carine Wester. The basic black accessory meshes with any outfit. I matched it with other black accessories such as the Topshop gilet and Chanel bag.

I've been taking juice retreats every other day for the past two weeks since I began the 'healthy regime'. This week I would up at an old favourite; Joe & the Juice three times! Try the Pick Me Up (rasberry, apple and banana) yum.

An off shoulder graphic tee, jeans and boots - easiest outfit to wear on a chilled Tuesday night. 

 How adorable is Markus Lupfer's exclusive collection for Whistles?

Bisous!

Goodbye Nicholas Ghesquiere

Nicholas Ghesquiere's departure at Balenciaga was announced last week. Along with many other critics, journalists, stylists, bloggers, friends & colleagues of his, I too was very disheartened and surprised. Surprised because Ghesquiere had produced phenomenal collections consecutively in the last fifteen years. I would just like to wish his successor good luck! ;)

Love love love this crop top. Everything about the SS13 collection was perfect. From the makeup bag bags, over bearing of rings, boucle jackets.. I could go on.

Bags on my SS13 wishlist

 

Chanel: I can't get over how adorable this lego inspired clutch is. It comes in black, white, red, yellow and blue.

Emilio Pucci: Seems like everyone's favourite colour this season was popular enough to make it into SS13. The delicate golden chain adds beauty to this luxe chic cobalt blue shoulder bag

 Burak Uyan: Mr Uyan gives us the classic version of his rustic shoulder purse from SS11. We can see the genius shoe designer also has a knack for making stunning bags.

 Lanvin: We were all surprised at the Lanvin show a few weeks back at Fashion Week when models pranced down the runway with these perfume bottle clutch bags. I see it being popular and a cute accessory to carry at an evening event.

 

 

Bulgari: Stainless steel and mirrored clutch box, need I say more? 

 

Calvin Klien: The design team at Calvin Klien also deserved an A-star for their take on accessories apart from their admirable minimalistic apparel collection of straight cuts and pearly shades. White reigns the colour trend for SS13 and this shoulder bag seems like the ideal white handbag for the season. 

 

 Z Spoke by Zac Posen: I've always been a fan of Zac Posen's breath taking dresses but never found his accessories very appealing. I like this classic black tote for SS13. Its a key piece as it makes a great day to night bag which can be taken to work and then dinner/drinks.

How gorgeous is this dress? I love the feathers bunched up on the waist that adds movement to it.

Morning: healthy week

I woke up this morning and started browsing through PINTEREST for inspirational photos for work. When I came across this photo it was what I needed to see. I begin Health Week this week. This means, healthy eating, going to the gym, getting enough sleep and detoxing everyday! If I go through one week, I'll challenge myself for another week. Wish me luck

Starting this morning off with:

50 jumping jacks, 10 pushups (3 sets), 20 crunches (3 sets), 20 mountain climbers, and 30 second plank

lazy sunday dressing

I like leaving my house everyday dressed and put together but Sunday is an off duty day. Its all about lazing about in my boyish track pants and loose fit sweaters. I have a bad habit of browsing around the men's section in stores (they have the nicest sweaters). The one I'm wearing in the picture is from Michael Herald at UO. I love the way it bunches up on the sleeves.

Hey fall's here!

I'm totally obsessed with Instagram...follow me on anusheehashwani ;) Fall's here and its time to give up the sunnies and move onto the snuggly items in our closets. This season I'm all about accessorizing with hats and winter pieces such as fur gilets.

I'm trending on black for my colour this season, what about you?

Sandro sweater, Zadig & Voltaire hat, Topshop gilet, trousers & shoes, Miu Miu handbag

Cambridge Satchel...*heart

Once upon a time there was a woman named Julie Deanne, a mother of two who thought of creating satchel bags from her kitchen. Her idea led to The Cambridge Satchel Company which now stocks in leading department stores such as Selfridges & Harvey Nichols and is a massive hit with bloggers, fashionistas and the press.

Check out her story here!

Elin Kling x Marciano

 

The Elin Kling for Marciano collection is here! I've been waiting for this collection since I saw the behind the scenes photos on StylebyKling in July. Hunter & Gatti shot the campaign using the sandy dessert on a sunny day as the background. How cool is the Torero/Matador inspired jacket in the photo above? I definitely want to get my hands on that. It would go perfectly with a black slip dress I recently bought. The capsule collection designed by the swedish blogger and global style icon is now available worldwide.

Estaban Cortazar

Columbian fashion designer Estaban Cortazar did us all a favour by leaving luxury brand Emanuel Ungaro and launching his own eponymous label.

I'd describe him as a minimalistic visionary, an expert at stylistic cuts and textures, the Jil Sander of our time. Twenty eight year old Cortazar launched his collection exclusively to Netaporter during fashion week on the 12th of September 2012. The range offers over thirty pieces at varied price points. View or shop the collection here.

November Shoe Wishlist

Balenciaga

Love these textured colour blocked heels. Candy pink and orange is the cutest combo on these pumps

 

Nicholas Kirkwood

I'm not a fan of frills but Kirkwood gives us a basic black pair with the perfect feminine touch. 

Ash

If I look back at 2012 I'd say my favourite trend was anything and everything with metal on it. Its no surprise that I'm lusting on these studded biker boots by Ash.

 

Estaban Cortezar

One of my new favourite designers. I absolutely love his work and these gorgeous minimalistic white sandals with metal ankle cuffs
