Coffee Bean

Monday, 31 March 2014

Everything I am wearing is A.P.C.
YAY I bought the super cute coffee bean dress. I never usually wear dresses/skirts that are so long but I really like the feeling of this.  Although it is long I feel really feminine in it due to the length and being belted at the waist. I like how I am wearing a dress that I feel comfortable in as I am not too revealed.

Patent Porselli

Monday, 24 March 2014

I have replaced my Porselli's with the patent leather ones. I have worn my porselli's nearly everyday since I bought them 6 months ago. They are well and truly worn and practically have no sole left. They are the comfiest shoes own due to them being so thin. I know they arent the most durable shoe but they are perfect this way as this is what makes them so comfy. So I know I'm safe with making another purchase.

The Row AW14

Wednesday, 19 March 2014

These are my favourite looks from The row AW14. They are rather toned down and more wearable than some of the other looks featured. I could see myself wearing the shorter black coat, and maybe parts of the grey ensemble. Brogues were a main feature throughout the show and my desire for brogues has oddly arose recently. I haven't liked brogues since they became a mainstream must have about 4 years ago. They seem to be more manly now, yet girly due to being patent and with cute details. Im unsure if my stature could get away with them but I just love the idea of my feet being fully protected.

A.P.C. T-Bar Wedges

Saturday, 8 March 2014

I splurged. £300 for shoes that I can only wear on an evening, yes I have fully certified I am crazy. 
Oh well, they are undeniably beautiful and utterly comfortable.

A.P.C. Autumn/Winter 2014

Friday, 7 March 2014

I am so pleased the priority colour within the collection is navy, I absolutely love navy I feel this winter I have worn it about 80% of the time. The main item I am drawn is the pea coat, I love the rounded almost peterpan like collars but still featuring classic lapels.
I am also intrigued by both trench style coats and am unable to choose a favourite . They appear like a trench but sustaining the style of a  classic large feminine coat. If I were taller I could imagine wearing either and feeling utterly snugggly and comfy. I love the warm yet pale colour of the cream, appearing as a very watered down creamy camel. 
I also love the belted dresses which appear to be in a luxurious thick fabric, which will inevitably provide warmth. If I were to purchase I would most certainly take the dresses up to above the knee as this is most suited to my body. 
I am also interested in the appearance of the casual parka cross coat. It could be worn to appear ultra casual or a bit more formal due to the combination of styles and fabrics. The locations of the buttons and pockets provide the traditional parka style whilst the lapel collar provides a more coat style.
The shoes are just beautiful. T- bar with patent leather and slight block heel - aaaahh could not get any better. 
I just love the styling of A.P.C. it is so perfectly suited to me, the high necklines, and simple shapes. Such simplicity is so comforting for me, whilst I feel the garments provide an aura of femininity, without being obviously feminine or 'sexy'. I feel this is often explained within reviews with A.P.C. but its just so true. 
I will have to begin my savings now haha!

A.P.C. Spring wishes

Sunday, 2 March 2014




Navy coffee bean patterned dress, White patterned dress, Black suede midi wedges and Brown high wedges - All A.P.C.

So here is the inevtiable A.P.C. spring wishlist (I actually would like more but these are the priorities).
The coffee bean pattern dress  = TOO cute, and the white dress with navy pattern, paired with either wedges and my half moon bag < 33.
 It is more than likely that I will have to get the dresses taken up to attain the desired look however if needs must!
I would mainly wear the T-Bar wedges for evening wear which could be worn with both dresses, the black wedges would be based for daytime wear as they are not too high so are perfect for daytime wear in spring - ahhhh !!
need.NEED. Can someone/something transport me somewhere reasonably mild - not sweltering so I can currently wear these items?????

Expect another post as A.P.C are uploading the summer collection on their website tomorrow !!
