Things that I like.

eh, this is gunna be a pointless pic spam to fill some rather neglected space

Blazers: I wear mine everywhere, it is possibly my main wardrobe staple, either open over a t-shirt and trousers, or buttoned and belted over a dress... I have so many outfits that I seem to complete with my blazer. I just need to build a collection of them now so that I don't feel so repetitive.

Belts: I usually wear belts to cinch in at the waist, to assentuate and create neat lines and a more defined silhouette, because I am so guilty of wearing clothes with no shape, which I bought specifically for the looseness and androgyny, and then belting over them anyway. I especially love leather (or faux leather) ones, generally brown, with a nice buckle, and a vintage air.

Shorts and tights: both of these things, seperately and together. I love them.

White shirts/Menswear in general: I wish I didn't love menswear... I'm not at all interested in male fashion in general for some reason, but I love the mens section on the high street, especially in H&M... They seem to get everything that I long for and it makes me mad >:(

Wedges: My more recent obsession with shoes is both saddening and delightful. I need more.

Floaty dresses: I like to feel girly.

I obviously like more than just this, but if I had my way, I think my wardrobe might be almost entirely made up of these things. Mhm.

so hot it'll melt your popsicle

Uninentionally got distracted from here by my Tumblr...

I know it's pretty dull reading, covering any runway stuff, but so far from Sao Paulo it looks like S/S2011 will be mostly metallic and stripes, which I have to be honest, I'm not digging. I hope they don't ditch the nudes/neutrals/florals from this year entirely, or the whole 'Summer girls wear denim and white' minimalism, because I love the 2010 look :(
