Throw your soul through every open door / Count your blessings to find what you look for

I'm feeling re-energized after an impossible last two weeks. Finally found a little inspiration for a new post, and it comes in the form of miss Adele. A friend of mine recently got me thinking about curvy women, and feeling comfortable with yourself. I've always known Adele from her incredible, soulful voice; but until now I never gave her sense of style much thought.

Isn't she just dreamy? Incredibly talented, classy, and and seems so comfortable in her own skin its impossible not to feel inspired by her. Hopefully it gets cold enough this winter, 'cause I think I'll be channeling her style. A-line skirts, capes and coats, classic pieces, seem to be her signature. But there's a playful twist about her look that's so cute and girly. I love this lady.

Gossip Girl

It's only two episodes in and the new season of GG has already maxed out my "when I'm a millionaire" wish list. I've never liked Serena's  style and always preferred Blair's. This season though, Serena has been knocking them out the park. My favourite look would have to be from last night's episode. Blake Lively looked absolutely stunning wearing those cobalt blue silk pants, the gold blazer, and those studded pumps!

Also, couldn't be happier that Clemence Poesy has joined the cast. I just hope they don't get rid of her too quickly! I'm warming up to Katie Cassidy... slowly. They really have to stop monochrome dressing her though. Can't wait for the next episode!

Diane Birch

I've been completely charmed by Miss. Birch recently. Diane has this beautiful, soulful voice, and I love the seventies nostalgia you hear through her music. Her songwriting style is a bit more sophisticated and formal , which I think sets her apart from her peers, but has probably kept her from bigger mainstream success. The girl has amazing style too; instantly recognisable in her signature black, wide-rimmed hat. She is always wearing something interesting, and I read somewhere that she has a penchant for thrifting/vintage. Anyways, I'll leave you with a live performance of Nothing But A Miracle, which is probably my favourite song of hers (very closely followed by Fools). Happy Listening x

Emma Stone looks gorgeous on the cover of ASOS Magazine this month. What a natural beauty; love her hair and freckles.

Any excuse for a little eye candy, hehe.

CHANEL has released their new ad for their men's perfume Bleu de Chanel, directed by Martin Scorsese and starring my favourite utterly dreamy, gorgeous, French actor Gaspard Ulliel. Watch it HERE.

Steal Her Style: Emma Watson at Glastonbury 2010

So, some of my friends know of my girly crush on Emma Watson. Haha. Oh, if only we could be BFFs. She's talented, beautiful, intelligent, unscathed by her celebrity, and most enviable, she's in with two of my favourite designers Burberry and Chanel. 

As usual, looking gorgeous - in an effortless side-braid, and Louis Vuitton corset top. Love the spiking detail on her wellies too. I had no idea she was dating fellow Burberry model (and lead singer of One Night Only) George Craig, but I think they're seriously adorable together. Though he's much better looking in real-life then in their campaign, if you ask me. 

Emma Watson wears Christopher Kane, again.

They seem to be quite a good match. And I adore Emma Watson. As if I didn't want to raid her wardrobe enough already. Emma attended a New York Fashion party last week wearing this amazing leather and lace dress by Christopher Kane.

I am so envious right now. Even if I could buy this dress, it wouldn't be available for months and months and months. I love the leather and lace, very sexy and edgy. But then the pretty colours and floral detailing gives it a little sweetness and girliness to balance it out pefectly. So inspiring...

Poppy Love

 

I am loving this Poppy nail polish from Witchery.
I've never been a fan of red nail polish in general, but the more photos I see of Olivia Palermo and her obsession with red nail polish, the more I am won over.
