The Suit

I've discovered that the perfect red lipstick is probably the best accessory any woman can afford. My favorites are Chanel Rouge Hydrabase Lipstick in Red N°5 (worn on this post) and a brick red one from Bobbi Brown. The red lipstick is also becoming my "transition dressing" (from office to after-office hours) staple. When I can't be bothered to work on a day-to-night outfit, I just swipe on some red lipstick or some Benetint cheek/lip stain for a nice flush of color. I actually wore this for friday night out. I was starring at my closet and it's been boring to go out in dresses/skinny jeans. If I wore this to work, then it means that I have an important meeting on the day. On a daily basis, I dress REALLY casual for work (dark skinnies and a neat-looking top). I can't bother fighting the heat in dress pants and jackets. ps. this is also probably the first time you'll spot me in a ponytail :)








zara blazer, moschino pants, white raybans, christian louboutin pumps

sorry for the delay with my emails ! im very busy with my thesis at the moment that even finding time to shoot and edit photos for the blog is quite tough for me. I'm doing my best in juggling between school and blogging :)

Mmh AND I Frankly think that your RED lipstick 's (uber sublimating) virtues sound much better through this "Fetish Harmony" with your bloody soles Dear !!!!

Black and white is such an elegant, stylish combination. You look fantastic and I love the red lipstick. I think you look good with a pony tail too.
Juggling between school, blogging and work must be really tough. Thumbs up for doing such a great job with all at such a young age. When I was 18 all I could think was partying, so, I really admire your dedication.

well it's cold but not that cold yet.
now it's -5 degrees celsius(will get a lot colder)
but im living close to the ocean so it's those winds that are an issue..cold cold winds going right into every bone.. ah. it's horrible..
if you only knew how much i'd love to swap for a warm and humid climate right now....
hope you had a good weekend
