try this on for size

Online shopping - the most torturous of excercises - fueled my craving for clothing, as usual.

first up, i happened upon this transparent neck/shoulder dress by Marc Jacobs:
i love the loose fit, and i especially love the transparency... so much fun to play around with!
[even tho i must add that i do not like this model in the dress for some reason, and i think it has something to do with her hair...]

and then i came across a picture of the recently battered Riri in a pair of the hottest knee-length cut out Margiella boots:

*swooooooon!!*
well, i immediately found a pair of Peacock boots similar in style and on offer for only 18pounds here (you can thank me with a size 7 pair - sold out, of course.)
view the mini-magnificence on the right of the original Margielas...


and then i thought, how cuuuuuute is this sequined purse!!
Also by Marc Jacobs.

...And, what if, we paired the cute transparent dress with this gorgeous pendant and necklace:

Heart shaped pendant by Loewe; Pearl drop necklace by  Links of London.


and these gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous pieces of jewellry:
  
Ring by Gurhan; Bracelet by Armita Singh.


And then i saw this wrist watch... swoooooooooon!!!

i love large, manly wrist watches, and so there's nothing better than a large, manly-looking wrist watch designed for the feminine hand... and while this might look much smaller in reality i like to imagine it as a huge, chunky, diamond encrusted wrist watch by Technomarine....

And after Seventy days minutes of surfing and styling, i looked upon my work and i was pleased ;)


*for most of these items, hurry over to Gilt Groupe before they're gone!!
