Not too much to write about here - this outfit was probably the least 'London' of the London ones and probably something more fitting for a country like Spain but I felt rally feminine wearing it and actually really, really enjoyed it. This bag is a special one - it was actually my resent birthday present fro m a group pf friends and I loveeee it - the quality is superb and it's original and has a vibe that just makes me smile.

Outfit Post : Jumping in SNEAKERS

 By: Unknown    04:05  No comments

As a teenager, the one thing you look forward to most is growing up, growing up represents freedom, independence and the chance to do what you want. In your 20s what with finding a job ... and thinking about maybe saving up ... and buying a car and all the rest that comes along .... you start to wonder if growing up is all it's cracked up to be. 

In your 30s the one thing that I feel really changes is that you basically stop caring and worrying as much about everything. A sense of freedom and nonchalance greets you, a sense of knowing who you are and what you want.

I think this is really reflected in what you choose to wear, and notice I said choose because my guess is that by the time you hit your 30s - you're no longer basing your wardrobe choices on what others say/think but on what YOU want to wear and that is when you really obtain 'fashion freedom'. 

For me, personally, nothing is more freeing than wearing sneakers - than being able to bounce, run and jump around without the restriction of heels or other uncomfortable shoes - that sense of being a child once again.

These sneakers are by Laura Biagiotti and found at Stivalletti who are officially collaborating with my feet :)

Shopping : Let's stroke some leather at Coccinelle

 By: Unknown    08:10  No comments

I've decided to post not one but two shopping posts this week and the second one is at Coccinelle who just last week hosted a super event whereby shoppers were sent a piece of material which they then had to pair with a bag and possibly win said bag. I'm really loving their current collection, the colours are so vibrant and beautiful, the leather so soft and supple.

Then there's the smell, somehow the smell of leather of my Coccinelle bags seems more powerful than that of other leather bags.. I actually sometimes place my bag near me at my desk,  just so I can smell it whilst I work - yes I'm aware this might be considered freaky behaviour, who cares, as long as my nostrils are happy....

Click through the slideshow below for some leather feasting

Coccinelle is located in Sliema Tower Road right next to Solaris . More Coccinelle - related posts here

Outfit Post : Standing on the edge of a cliff

 By: Unknown    23:00  No comments

It's no secret that I love summer, sea warm weather, boats and the long summer nights. What I don't like is the lack of beanies, knitted turbans residing on my head or the fact that it's too hot to layer and the other problem that my feet are not residing in nice leather boots. These I consider to be rather big problems and the fact that it is now no longer summer and these problems can be remedied is enough to make me forget the rain and approaching cold weather.

So much so that I can stand at the edge of the cliff, wave my hands around and attempt to balance around on one leg whilst the hubby photographer starts to get concerned. I actually felt a bit indignant there - I mean that's a serious doubt of my balancing skills and my boots' sturdiness features.

Outfit Details : Shirt ASOS / Boots : Nero Giardini at Stivaletti / Bag : Coccinelle / Top : River Island / Headband : Spitalfields Market / Jeans : Jennyfer

Scarf, Hat : Coccinelle

Sunglasses : Solaris

Jewellery : Vascas

For the latest issue of Style on Sunday Magazine we went boating in style (on board a 2014 Azimut -55S)! There are lots of different summer trends styled in this shoot - from long, flowing dresses to two piece suits to flattering one-piece swimsuits.

There's also a lot of beautiful jewellery (all from Vascas) showcased, notice how I layered on the different pieces, don't be scared to experiment in this manner, different layers add interest and it's summer so time to have fun. There are also a lot of hats shown in these photos - hats are the perfect fashion statement and an interesting way to stand out from the crowd and be a bit original.

Shopping Post : Have a little bit of FAITH - in SHOES

 By: Unknown    12:16  No comments

We all need faith and we all need new shoes..and the great think about shoes ? You can have an extra slice of cake..or two and they still fit. 

There's been a fair bit of hype about the recently launched FAITH at Debenhams...after all Faith shoes are mega popular in the UK and they do have some fantastic styles...yes, if you hadn't heard - it's now stocked at Debenhams at The Point and since shoes are the one thing I can admit that buying online isn't always a great idea....I'm thrilled at the news. 

So for this weeks edition of Caroline hits a shop and shows you what it's in stock - let's have a little bit of faith...

Love the various prints and colours and diff styles but I think my favourite have to be the ones in the very first pic..the strappy black shoes...so stylish

Shopping Post : What your Valentine Really Wants

 By: Unknown    01:45  No comments

The other day, I was speaking to some of my girlfriends and we got talking about the approaching Valentine's Day; interestingly enough it seems like the rate of women receiving unwanted gifts that they don't have the heart to exchange is alarmingly high. Others also lamented the fact that they never get anything more original than a box of chocolates and/or flowers. Sooo, apparently the men folk need some direction for Valentine...maybe a little nudge to think outside the box and go for something which will be a bit more appreciated.

I decided I need to give the menfolk a helping hand and here it is; for this post, I collaborated with Armani Jeans and Tommy Hilfiger both at Baystreet and chose my top 5 Valentine's Day Gifts from each of these stores. Both these stores are open till 10 p.m. and also on Sunday, so they're super great for those really busy men; otherwise read as NO EXCUSES!

So as you can see from the pic above I've chosen  5 different items:

•  A classic trench coat, every woman needs a beautiful, classically cut, trench coat; ideally in a nude shade so it can be worn with anything and everything.
• A colourful everyday bag for Spring; this PVC, fun bag is easily cleaned, not delicate and can work really well as an everyday bag.
• A scarf, women can never have enough scarves so this is an easy one, pick a bright colour for Spring.
• A patterned, elegant blouse, since Spring and Maltese hot weather is just around the corner, it's time to think about loose fitting, slink bright tops; we'll soon be putting away the blacks.
• For those men whose Valentine truly loves fashion this orange blazer is a true  statement piece - guaranteed to garner lots of hugs and kisses.

Some close-up pics

Again, as before I've chosen  5 different items:

•  A lovely tote bag in a muted, bright coral 
• Lime jeans are set to be one of the hottest things this new season...it is essential hat they fit well , so a well tailored pair is necessary.
• As I mentioned before, you can't go wrong with a scarf; this one is particularly lovely.
• A super-cute, floral, shift dress that melted my heart, for all those ladies that love sweet, pretty things.
• For those ladies that love sweet, pretty things but hate dresses, there are also trousers in the same pattern! Slinky, comfy, loose fitting, trousers!

Some close-up pics

Good Luck Men!

P.S. In Malta, Tommy Hilfiger Stores can be found in Baystreet Shopping Complex Paceville and also in Valletta. Armani Jeans Stores can be found at The Point and also at Baystreet.

Random Post : Turning 30 and a Wishlist

 By: Unknown    03:06  No comments

The day is soon here, the day I no longer form part of either the teen or twenteeen club but join the ranks of 'the more mature' thirty club; I will now start ticking the other box. Truth be told, I'm not scared of getting older, I'm happy with my life and feel like I'm making the most of every part of it..but somehow 30 still feels like a bit of a big deal.

Normally, over the years, I have always kept stating I am x years old until the actual day of my birthday at which time it turns to x+1 but this time for some reason, for the past few months, when asked my age, the number 30 has been exiting my mouth....maybe I've been subconsciously preparing myself for what I feel is a bit of a life milestone.

I used to think that my image would change when I reached 30, that I'd definitely be wearing different clothes, wearing my hair differently (that part is currently true but it's only temp) and whilst of course my style has evolved over the years..I'm not sure 'tuning 30' is having anything to do with it...however I will say that as I grow older I am understanding my body more and more and leaning to buy more 'investment pieces', favouring quality over quantity and not wasting money over fads.

With this in mind no birthday of mine could ever be complete without a dream wishlist..here are my top ten wishes ...I might buy myself one of these babies..after all I have to give myself a gift right?

Left to Right: Hermes Scarf/ Chanel necklace/ Chanel Classic Flap Bag/Miu Miu coat/ Louboutin Pumps/ Michael Kors Watch in rose gold/ Coccinelle Pink bag with gold chain/ Coccinelle Wallet/ Kenzo Eye Sweater

A girl must have dreams right?
