16.12.2011- Weekend Wishes

Although I hate the snow, there is something quite magical about it, especially at this time the year. Not so magical, however, is the sight of me dressed head to toe in my cold weather gear- think Abominable Snowman crossed with Scott of the Antarctic and you're there. With the wintry weather set to continue, my wish for this weekend is to look this cool in the snow...

Chasing Wolves by Harper Smith, Factory Winter 2010.

...although I'm not convinced how of how sensible it is to step outside in this weather without a coat!

How are you finding the cold weather? And what are your wishes for this weekend?

09.12.2011- Weekend Wishes

I don't know about you, but there's something about this time of year which makes me want to escape from the chaos of the pre-Christmas rush. Whilst I love the preparations in the run up to the day itself, it does seem that this year is proving quite stressful. So, this weekend, I'd love to get some peace and quiet away from all the frenzy...

Rasa Zukauskaite by Paul de Luna, WestEast Magazine August 2011. 

...although I'm not sure a trip to the seaside in the middle of the English winter is the best idea I've ever had!

How are your Christmas preparations going? Are you finding it at all stressful? And what are your plans for this weekend?

This weekend, I wish my Halloween could be as stylish as this Tim Burton inspired shoot from Harper's Bazaar:

Tim Burton's Magical Fashion by Tim Walker, Harper's Bazaar October 2009.

As it is, I'm just going to do my best zombie impression (and use the occasion as an excuse to re-watch Shaun of the Dead!)

How will you be spending Halloween?

With the current heatwave we seem to be experiencing, there's only one thing I could possibly wish for this weekend- to make the most of this glorious weather!

16.09.2011- Weekend Wishes

Hello! Firstly, I am so so sorry for not posting at all over the last week, my hard drive completely gave up the ghost and my computer has only returned from the menders today! Needless to say I have a lot to catch up on! Anyway, forgetting about that for a moment and celebrating the weekend; I wish I could spend mine chanelling the timeless style of Marilyn Monroe as well as Michelle Williams does in the October issue of US Vogue:

Doesn't she look stunning? I can't wait to see her performance in My Week With Marilyn when the film is released in November.

What are your plans for the weekend?

This weekend, I wish I could carry off the 60s look as well as a certain Miss Chung does in the latest issue of UK Harper's Bazaar ...

Monochrome magic. What do you think of Alexa's shoot for Harper's Bazaar? And what are your wishes for this weekend?

This weekend, I wish I could get my hands on this lovely little lot from the Rodarte for Opening Ceremony Fall collection:

Beautiful! I love how this lookbook has been put together and the floaty, flyaway dresses are simply stunning. Operation bank balance we are a go...

What do you think of Rodarte's Fall collection for Opening Ceremony? And what do you have planned for the weekend?

06.08.2011- Weekend Wishes

As much as I love living within a stone's throw of London, there are times when it's nice to escape to some peace and quiet (especially when your next-door neighbours are having a DIY marathon!) I'm quite lucky as I live in quite a 'countrified' area (as my mum calls it), so I'm not surrounded by concrete, but this weekend I wish I could really get away from it all...

Rachel Alexander by RomanLeo for Vestal Volume 6, 2011.

This editorial is stunning- just looking at it makes me feel more relaxed, and the location is idyllic. Now to invest in some earplugs to try and block out the drilling/crash-bang-walloping/general racket from next door!

What have you got planned for the weekend? Are you longing to get away anywhere?

29.07.2011- Weekend Wishes

This weekend, I wish I could spend my time outside in the garden enjoying the best of the sun:

But first I need to track down a fantastic sun hat like the one in the first photo!

What have you got planned for the weekend? Will you be making the most of the weather?

15.07.2011- Weekend Wishes

Long time no see! I'm so so sorry I haven't posted in nearly a week, I've just been so busy (and really tired!) this week so haven't had much time to blog. I hope you've all had lovely weeks and are enjoying the Harry Potter hype as much as I am- I'm off to see it on Sunday evening and am so excited. I'm also noticing some AW11 pieces making an appearance in stores at the moment, so although I can't bring myself to wave goodbye to the summer just yet, my wish for this weekend would be to get my hands on these gorgeous outfits for next season, as modelled by Coco Rocha for ELLE UK's August issue:

What do you think of the looks Coco is modelling? Are you impressed? And what have you got planned for the weekend?
