Empty that Closet! Contest

Girls, does it come to you when you don't know what to wear and when it feels like you don't have enough in your wardrobe? Are there times when you wish you can shop for more so that your closet can give you more options?



And then does it occur to you that your closet is actually overcrowded but that what taking so much space are the old clothes or old accessories that you don't feel like wearing anymore or items that you had grabbed from sale but you had never worn?

I believe this is true to most of us and certainly this is true to me.

This red and white stripes two piece has literally been sleeping in my closet for more than two years, never been worn since I brought them home. As you can see, this pair is a tube and a skirt. However, the top is too short that wearing it makes me look slutty, lol, while the skirt, even if it looks very sexy on me, I couldn't find something else that would go along with it and it doesn't feel right to wear them seperately.


But thanks to this contest Empty your closet! I was inspired to find a way to get them out of the house and say "hi" to the world.

Look! Instead of wearing the tube as a top, I decided to wear it as a scarf. Taking a black turtle neck knitted sleveless, a black hose and a pair of black boots, the outfit went perfect. In the photo above, I was with Daisy and Joy, the girls who were also Empty your closet! inspired.

This contest has been revised. Please follow this link to the contest. Thanks ;)

Shoe(s) of the Day - Summer Booties

The short boot was a great trend these past couple years in the winter months - but now I'm seeing these booties ready for summer with cutouts and peep toes - turned into sandal booties, and I like!

Jimmy, oh Jimmy, how cute are your summer booties!!

 

Calvin makes a more affordable, and equally drool worthy pair:

Quote of the week: Mamy Rock

The 69-year old DJ and That's Not My Age regular, who says, 'I'd rather sign a contract with a record company than sign-up for a nursing home,' is playing at my next big birthday party, alright?

What do you think's on Mamy Rock's playlist?

Statement Jewelry

For not a lot of dough. I got this multi-strand faux pearl collar necklace:


I didn't get the matching bracelet, equally as pretty, but can't get both, too matchy matchy.


I had my eye on this one, but... though it's nothing like my J.Crew Bubble necklace, it's still bold and a statement that contains some of the same colors (gold and turquoise) - that's my thought process, so I opted for the one above, which I don't have anything alike. But I do love this necklace:


This necklace was pretty fun, too - but prettier in person than this pic:


I love Target.

Miss Selfridge + Gossip Girl

It has been announced that Miss Selfridge, which is a British high street store,

has signed a deal with Warner Bros to sell a clothing collection based on Gossip Girl.

I don't know about you but i was a little shocked when i first heard this.

This seems like much more of a Topshop thing to me but i suppose as both the stores are owned by the same people it makes sense!

As i read more about it

I got even more excited

The collection which consists of
8 dresses based on the styles of the four female lead characters Serena , Blair , Jenny and Vanessa, is inspired by the designs of the shows costume designer and stylist Eric Daman.

The collection will include a leopard print boho maxi dress and a black body con bandage dress among other items

Also The legend that is Eric Daman will also be
hosting a video series discussing the characters' style, documenting his inspiration for their wardrobe and showing how fans can created their own Gossip Girl-inspired look using the Miss Selfridge collection.

The collection will hit stores and online at the end of April with prices starting at £39

So, what do you think?

I think it is amazing that a tv show is teaming up with the high street

Especially Gossip Girl as i am such a fan!

I am a big fan of Miss Selfridge too and

I know they will produce some lovely pieces

I just can't wait to see them!
