currently coveting: shoes

I have an admission to make; I have a slight obsession with shoes.
I've always thought that in a backwards kind of way perhaps this comes from having troublesomely large feet, which puts shoe shopping in a special category of hell. But then I'm hardly alone in a love of footwear, am I?
Anywho, it's a lot of fun browsing shoes online, and for once that bank account of mine is doing me a favour by keeping me safe from having to consider whether they'd fit, ha!

scenes of the city


Some photographs (by me) from a recent trip into the city.
I live in the country, with the nearest (proper) city being beautiful Adelaide, where myself and my siblings were all born. Most of our family lives there so we make the 2 and 1/2 hour drive there reasonably regularly, but going from the relative tranquillity of our little town to the bustle of the city is still always a bit of a shock to the system.
Anyway, the trip before last I took the camera and spent most of the day wondering around Rundle Mall, the results of which you can see below;










in my imaginary wardrobe...







Jenny Packham RTW Fall 2013

Oh, the sheer loveliness! Jenny Packham's fall 2013 show is full of sumptuous, opulent dresses that look as though they're straight out of a dream or a fairytale. Honestly, all the beautiful embellishment is just so exquisite, I mean can you image wearing one of these? Heaven!

The hair and makeup is also gorgeous; really lovely and light and fresh 


Karen Walker RTW Fall 2013

The two things I love most from Karen Walker's collection; the sweaters and the prints.
The sweaters looked chic in a very comfortable slouchy way that I really love, and the prints are a modern sort of florally kind of thing (sorry for all those highly technical terms). I adore the white sweater with the rose print but my favourite look is probably the olive sweater over the black and white printed dress.

Marchesa RTW Fall 2013

Okay, I've got a thing for lavish evening wear. So sue me.
Marchesa's fall 2013 collection is full of fantastically detailed dresses; the embroidery is what really gets me. I mean, can you say opulent? The tiered cream dress is probably my favourite, though it's hard to pick just one.
