Dream Catcher

Before I condemn myself to solitary confinement due to the massive pile of university work I have to get through I thought I should share two of my current loves. 

These being crochet and lace, especially in plain or organic colour schemes.  

When I look at such items, I can see the artistry that went into creating such beautiful fabrics, I have no idea how they are created but this only amazes me even more. 

I also adore my dream-catcher necklace I am wearing below which I have my mum and sister to thank for.

Hat & Dream-catcher- Sportsgirl

This vintage crochet jacket I have had for donkeys now but I have a feeling it's colour will never grow old.

  

I am still uncertain as to which hat I prefer with this outfit ?

Lastly I wanted to show these images which I found fromcookies blog

They are absolutely beautiful . 

Face Lift

I  literally cannot  stay the same . 

I am constantly changing my mind.
I can never sit still . 

I have the dress sense of a chameleon and god help you if you ever go out to dinner with me because picking one dish could be Mission Impossible IV in the making . 

So it's no surprise to myself that I have given my blog a bit of a face lift which I hope you approve !

Look
This sheer top in my next look has been  a very good investment . Not only do I love the sheer and  shiny fabric, but it's great underneath clothing as well as by itself with something underneath of coarse !
Apologies for the strange eyes the sun was quite painful that day !

I have have a habit of mixing fabrics in this ensemble I have mixed denim, velvet, silk and cotton which I feel has given the outfit a nice texture.

Race Wear Idea's
I have noticed a lot of sugar coated outfits for the races in various publications, which quite frankly isn't for everyone .
So I thought that I would put forward a few alternative outfits for the races.

I particularly like the first idea of dressing to the theme of a jockey for a different spin on race wear attire.

Peace, Love and Layers

If you haven't already noticed I am slightly obsessed with layering.  

It amazes me how ordinary clothes can come to life when layered with others .

I  love how it gives me the chance to personalize clothing and make something my own which I feel is crucial in a world where clothing is often mass produced.
