Here are my latest finds and news from fashion, style, film and beautiful living.
As of late, besides leather cuffs (my collection is constantly growing), I’ve been into simple, raw-looking jewellery. These silver and brass cuffs and bangles have won me over and one of them will soon be mine. Paired with a crisp white shirt or a navy turtleneck, they would give these timeless items a welcome quirky touch. I would also like that lovely Up in the Air Somewhere (cool brand name, right?) paper maché bowl for my coffee table.

• Currently loving: this and this Zara skirts in ethnic motifs prints (only I wouldn’t wear them with heels − heels & mini is no-no in my style book). Have you seen the brand’s Spring 2013 ad campaign video featuring Raquel Zimmerman and filmed by David Sims?

I wish I could see the Vintage Lifestyle Magazine, Ada, but I can’t, the link is not working. As I said before, yes to flats and short skirts/dresses otherwise the look is not chic at all. I did not see Lincoln, but I intend to this weekend and I want that bowl, please 😉 Have a lovely day :*
I’ve just checked the link and it seems to be working fine: https://vintagelifestylemag.co.za/the-magazine/
Love your choices as always, Ada. Off to read the feature – congratulations!!! x

Great interview Ada! And those cuffs are absolutely beautiful – I love the rawness. I haven’t seen Lincoln yet but I’m looking forward to the costumes as with all period cinema. I’m putting that Balenciaga book on the list! :)x
