Bye Bye Winter.

So, being based in Sydney we're nearing the much warmer months of Summer. Unfortunately as we are on different times, I'm seeing these rather glorious winter campaigns and feeling somewhat saddened. There are some amazing new pieces coming out and I'm feeling rather annoyed. I'm missing out on these Peter Pan collared knits and metal toe capped booties!!! Gorgeous Baroque prints and beautiful woolen cardigans- things I was looking for all winter... well, if any of you are readers from across the globe I am glad that these beautiful items are here for you now. On the other hand- kudos to asos.com for always having clothes for all seasons. There are some new summer dresses which we Australians have first access to which are amazing! 

This post however is based on my sadness of the end of winter- it is always so much more fun to get dressed up in winter so I'm sure that most of you will understand. Or perhaps I can give you something to look forward to! 

After seeing some amazing pictures of Anne Hathaway which almost changed my mind about her- I did some clicking about looking at the new RED Valentino and Valentino Collections online. Wow, if she is the muse then she has my vote. 

RED Valentino - Bicolor Patent Leather Bow Oxfords
RED Valentino Bicolour Patent Bow Oxfords off saksfifthavenue.com- Pretty is not the word and does these shoes no justice. I absolutely adore these. Pastels are great  and in pink, well!! If you have a look at any of my other posts- bows are my favourite so these shoes have it all. I've also worn off wearing heels for a while so the prettier you can make a pair of flats- the better. 

Knitwear: 
Komodo 'Crema' Cardigan in Crochet Knit

Komodo 'Crema' Cardigan in Crochet Knit off asos.com -this gorgeous knit has been hand crocheted in the Himalayas from pure new wool. I don't think anymore needs to be said other than I like the colour. The beige squares will be great when matching with your outfits.

Paul by Paul Smith Spotty Cardigan off asos.com- cotton & wool mix. These colours all work so well together. It is a happy cardigan- you would want to wear it every single day!

Vero Moda Cute Collar Knit Jumper off asos.com. I love the collar! It also comes in a redish colour 'Purple Potion'. 

Accessories:

ASOS Bow Gloves off asos.com- available in four colours and super cute! 


Footwear:

ASOS ALLURE Ankle Boots off asos.com. They're so awesome. Their only downfall (for me) is that they're not leather. If that doesn't bother you, you have to admit- they have something about them!

F-Troupe Flat Bow Ankle Boots off asos.com. Because I love a good bow and since I bought a tan handbag, I realised how well it matches everything. My poor tan Mouse Ballet flats I can imagine would like a replacement to give them a rest!

Rain, hail or shine- the basics to get through winter are the gumboots. From left to right: RED Valentino Gum Boots, MICHAEL Michael Kors Gumboots, kate spade new york gumboots in orange and on far right in polka dot print all available off saksfifthavenue.com. 

Happy Shopping!!!
