Pick of the Week: Peter Pan Collars

I'm the sort of person whose taste changes from one second to the next, especially when it comes to clothes. I'll like floaty florals one seconds, tailored jackets the next, and then start drooling over stripy t-shirts instead. Because of this, I thought I'd introduce a new feature to the blog - Pick of the Week - so that I can rave about my changing obsessions on a regular basis! :)

This week, I'm all about Peter Pan collars. Actually, this is a lasting love of mine - I'll buy anything with a collar in this style!

And the Peter Pan collar on this blue dress is no exception to the rule. I adore the colour, style and pockets, and it would be so easy to dress up as well as down.

Wear it with black tights, heels, and a matching necklace for a night out, or just a pair of flats for daytime comfort. Either way, it's perfectly suited to the situation.

What are your current obsessions? I'd love to hear about them.

Style Inspiration: Blue Jeans

I envy people who can look good in jeans, I really do. I always feel incredibly under-dressed when I wear them, even if I'm just popping down to the shop... Maybe I'm just not styling them right, though. Because they look wonderful in this page from Birgitte!


So, how to recreate these looks? The jeans themselves are pretty basic, and I'm sure you have a pair at home, but the styling makes all the difference.

Look #1: This is quite a boyish look, so pair the jeans with a flannel shirt and leather bomber. Add some girlier details to top it all off - some dainty shoes and a stylish handbag do the trick here.

Look #2: This is a much more traditionally feminine outfit, and a lot dressier than the first - even if they do describe it as 'hippie'. Grab a nice, loose shirt, a suede-style handbag, and top it all off with a pair of shiny heels to complete this look.

How do you like to style your jeans? Inspire me!
