Mixed

I think I have been watching too many episodes of Sabrina The Teenage Witch because lately I feel, style wise, I have been morphing into her. Or maybe I just have the 90's bug that's been kicking around the fashion world of late. Or maybe it's just my personal taste suits these categories.  Whatever it is, I am defiantly down with it.  

Skirt - thrifted, mesh long sleeved top worn underneath - Ebay, black high kneck crop top - Supre,

choker - Ebay, necklace - A gift, Combat boots - Asos. 

Until next time adiós internet friends! xo Isabel

Street Style Files: Yasmin Sewell

This Australian queen of fashion will never look shabby. Yasmin Sewell is undoubtly up there with the fashion greats. I love Yasmin’s street style because it is very unique and you know that everything even down to the zip on her trousers is going to fit into her outfit perfectly. 

Yasmin likes to play with the cut or shape and fabric textures of a clothing item and usually sticks to one bold print.Whilst keeping her outfit very trendy she always like to put a boychic twist on it. 

My Interpretation: 

The Baker Boy

I have had this Bakers Boy Cap for quite a couple of months now and it still hasn't had its debut. However the other day I got so sick of waking up every morning and seeing it on my hat stand when clearly it should have been on my head by now. So I placed it on my head and didn't take it off until I had formed a complete outfit around it.  I kept every other clothing item pretty simple as I wanted the hat to stand out. I then added some Lace-up Topshop brogues, just to add to the boyish theme. I was quite happy with the end results of this outfit and I have worn it more than once since its debut.

Baker boy cap - Choices, ribbed crop top - Topshop , ribbed button down skirt - independent boutique, brogues - Topshop. 

All in all the Bakers Boy Cap is a very versatile piece and can be worn in any climate. So that's a big tick from me!   

Until next time internet friends! Isabel xo. 

Stomp it!

Platform boots - Asos, Plaid slip dress - Sportsgirl, Midi rings - Lovisa, Ribbon necklace - own project. 

I recently purchased these Asos platform combat boots and have, as usual, fallen in love with another materialistic item! If you are unsure about purchasing some platform boots that are a bit pricey or just a little out there, I'd say do it anyway! Not only are they super comfortable but they are a great way to add some omph to a basic outfit. They are also a very versatile shoe because they can take you from day to night to casual to dressy. 

All in all the perfect Autumn/Winter buy! 

Until next time internet friends! Isabel xo. 

Street Style Files: London Fashion Week AW14

This week gone was a big one for many fashionistas in London. London Fashion Week defiantly stood up to the plate and displayed its fair share of street style . I noticed heaps of people were going for the boy chic look, a lot of playing with different textures and stand alone statement pieces. Colour wise it was all very dull everyday browns, navy blues, greys, khaki, black pared with oil slick silvers, bright oranges, dark reds and a lot of monochrome.

What I would wear: 

"So who is Isabel when she’s at home?"

I recently realised I haven’t properly introduced myself to the blogger world, and what better occasion than now while my blog is still fresh and new.

I might as well start off with the basics, I am 17 year old Brisbane girl, I have recently completed high school and i am unsure of what to do with my life career wise. My father is Sicilian and my mother is Australian making me half Australian half Sicilian. I am the youngest sibling, baring me the title of the little annoying sister (what I have been labelled by my brothers). 

Ever since I was young girl I always felt as though I had a knack for fashion. I like to think of myself as a fashion rebel because I have always dressed differently to those around me. I come from a conservative family where they have always expected the girls to dress to a certain modest standard. But I don’t necessarily dress to their standards and this is probably why I find fashion so appealing because it is a way to show my true personality (cheeky maybe?). You have to have guts to wear something that doesn’t fit in with the status-quo which is a quality I really admire.

I am inspired mostly by celebrities, bloggers or people I see on the street. I would say my style is reminiscent of different eras, playful and mostly laid back.

Other than fashion I play the guitar and LOVE music, I have been told I have the travel bug and I love being creative wether it is painting a cupboard to re-vamping old clothing to drawing or photography. And I hope to eventually get a job that incorporates one or more of these interests. I am also an avid shopper and op shopper, however a very stingy one.

I have found confidence through clothing and fashion and I hope to help others find their own.

So internet this is me boiled down to 336 words. Eat your heart out!

Until next time internet friends! Isabel xo.
