The Brunette Shake

March 17, 2018

When I started this blog, I came up with "The Brunette Shake" because I am Brunette and like to shake things up. My blog space has been a work in progress - and now is almost complete! I have sent over 800 of my old posts dated from 2009-2015 to the "drafts" for a fresh start.

When I saw Noelle Downing and Rachel Martino wearing these Brunette/Blonde sweaters from Zara I knew I had to have one.

It's definitely a statement piece. I received a size Medium, and could have had a Small or Extra Small. It is very oversized, but comfortable. It's great for those days when you don't know what to wear, but it's chilly out.

It was a windy day, but these tulips made me the happiest. Spring is almost here!

What's your favourite season?

The 25 Best Carrie Bradshaw Style Moments

September 18, 2014

Carrie Bradshaw is known for her eclectic and unique style. You literally have no clue what she is going to put together next (style wise) - unless you've watched every single episode and movie of Sex and the City at least a dozen times each...

I often look at SATC for style inspiration. Some of the outfits are just so amazing - Patricia Field is a powerhouse genius when it comes to style and fashion.

I'm going to be writing a style series on each of the Sex and the City girls. I had to do Carrie first!

Carrie's style has really evolved over time. I think her best moments, style wise in the TV series was when she was with Alexander P. Really though, she looked amazing! When she was in Paris she looked so lovely and parisian. Her dress collection is absolutely to die for.

Of course, the Sex and the City movies really showed how all of the SATC girls had evolved since the TV series ended. I actually own a few pieces from the movie that I just adore!

Carrie's pink dress, studded belt, green floral Betsey Johnson dress, blue Manolo Blahniks...Sigh. They are statement pieces in my wardrobe!

Now let's get some inspiration from SATC, and Miss Carrie Bradshaw!

Currently Obsessed | Flower Crowns

This statement is so me. I may love the glitz and glam of diamonds, but "me" is flowers in my hair.

I've been coveting a flower crown for what seems like years, I found some really great DIY video's on YouTube that I have shared below. I also included a great "shop this post" section too if you're not a DIY'er!

So, next week I'm going to be making flower crowns like it's my job. I can't wait to experiment with different flowers and colours. Of course, the photo shoots after I make them are going to be so much fun and I will (of course!) be sharing the photos with you.

I have included most of my flower crown inspiration below for all of YOU to get inspired too! Nothing screams Spring/Summer more than flowers in your hair.
