Ah, Giovanna! Pt 9 - Spring/Summer 2013 Fashion Weeks

One of my favourite 'fashionistas', Giovanna did not disappoint in the fashion stakes during the SS'13 Fashion Weeks, staying true to her elegant yet fun style, and a great ambassador for Italian labels (such as Prada - with that gorgeous geometrically-printed shirt dress):

Miroshka Pt 4: Miroslava Duma at the Spring/Summer 2013 Fashion Weeks

When asked to described her style in 3 words, Miroslava used 'quirky eclectic experimental', it sure is, and she seems to have a ball doing so, with bold colours,  Since having her now 2 year old son, she now appreciates flat shoes, hurray, good to see I'm not alone!

Songspiration: Smash - Stand

Since I am currently obsessed with this song, I thought I'd share it here.

Is anyone out there a 'Smash' fan? My sister told me about this TV show months ago, and being a huge musical fan, I couldn't wait to watch it for myself.  Ever since watching the first season's finale, I promptly hopped on the computer and have been playing this song over and over.  It is just so beautiful, the melody, the actor's voices, the choir, and the lyrics.  Hope you enjoy it as much as I do:

What do you do when you’ve done all you can  

And it seems like you can’t make it through  

And what do you say when your friends turn away

  You’re alone  

Tell me what do you give  

When you’ve given your all  

And it seems like you can’t make it through  

Well you just stand when there’s nothing left to do  
You just stand  

Watch the Lord see you through  

Yes after you’ve done all you can  
You just stand  

Tell me what do you give when you’ve given your all  
and it seems like you can’t make it through 
Well you just stand when there’s nothing left to do  
You just stand  

Watch the Lord see you through  

Yes after you’ve done all you can  
You just stand  

You stand and be sure and be not entangled in bondage again  

Stand and endure 

(God has a purpose) God has a plan  

Tell me what do you do when you’ve done all you can 
and it seems like you can’t make it through  
Through the storm 
through the rain 
through the hurt  
and through the pain  

I’ll hold on  

I’ll be strong 

God will step in  

It won’t be long  

After you’ve done all you can, you just stand

Street Style at the Spring/Summer 2013 Fashion Weeks - Stripes

As you may know, I admitted early on that I am a humungous fan of stripes (especially a la marinière). Following on from the last Street Style post(s) on stripes being worn during Fashion Weeks, it was great seeing them again during the Spring/Summer 2013 Fashion Weeks: 

 

Those Maison Michel lace bunny ears are just too cute! (shame Lil' J#1 won't be sporting those anytime soon)

Check out the Rag & Bone Newbury boots! Still loving my pair!

n.b. The 'compilation' photos of striped outfits are from The Sartorialist, and were not necessarily taken during the Fashion Weeks. 

Thanks to all who have entered the $100 Shopbop giveaway!

 If you haven't already, you still have until Monday 29th of October to do so HERE. 

Have a fabulous weekend everyone!

TGIF!
