Collar on collar.

Tuesday, 25 September 2012






Whilst it is completely undeniable that I have an irrepressible love for travelling the world, living out of a suitcase can be quite sartorially challenging - constantly thinking of the different permutations and combinations of the elements of a heavily edited version of my wardrobe really becomes very taxing! Therefore, I tend to grow fond of the more meticulous details through accessorising, such as this collar necklace that I stumbled upon from ASOS, which was enough to elevate even the most prosaic of outfits. 

And how beautiful are the streets of Amsterdam? These images were taken on a casual weekend getaway there while I was studying in London ... as you do.

Much love, Mandy. xx

  7. I love mint and gold together, I think it's such a chic combination. And the zippers on your pants add to the charm! Haha I definately lean towards the same 'safe' outfits I'm comfortable with and never really edit much of my outfits. I should... thank you for the reminder haha. I do the same thing by mixing an outfit up with jewellery (mix and matched). I was wondering why these streets looked like Amsterdam, how gorgeous.
