Hop Onto Houndstooth
One particular black and white patterned trend that recently dominated the fall runways and even on celebs? Houndstooth! While this print might not be that big locally, they’re all the rage overseas.

Squeeze A Little Mustard In
When it comes to your favourite sauce, what’s it gonna be? As for me, a generous helping of mustard wins hands down—it goes great with French fries, burgers and hot dogs. Oh, and to let you in on a weird habit of mine, I like to eat my crisps with mustard too! Lol! Now if [...]
Put A DIY’ed Collar On It
Happy Friday, peeps! It looks like I’m on DIY spree this week, eh?!! On Monday, wrote a piece on some very amazing DIY Streetstyle @ Paris Fashion Week according to A Pair and a Spare, and since I just discovered these oh-so cute DIY’ed collars, I thought I’d make DIY the theme of the week. [...]
DIY Streetstyle @ Paris Fashion Week according to A Pair and a Spare
Fashion stylist extraordinaire Rachel Zoe once said: “Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak”. Style is all about being creative and confident enough to stand out from the rest.

Rock Out in Cobalt Blue + Black
Anyone feeling the blue today? We think probably not (TGIF!), but one thing you gotta know is that this fall is that it’s perfectly okay to be blue (yes, pun intended).

Pop Ya Collar with Detachable Collars
I first came across some very lovely detachable collars after checking out last year’s Miu Miu printed shirt collars—which somewhat kicked trend off to a collar-ful start. Little did I know that [via Wikipedia]: “Some believe that Hannah Montague invented this collar in Troy, New York, in 1827, after she snipped off the collar from [...]
Plate Collar Necklaces!
Mention the word ‘collar necklace’ and the first thing that comes to my mind are those beautiful and intricate neck adornments worn by Egyptian queen Cleopatra.

Dreamcatcher Necklaces!
If there’s one type of Native American-inspired jewellery that I love (besides feathered earrings, of course), it has to be dreamcatcher necklaces. Via Wikipedia: “The Ojibwa believe that a dreamcatcher changes a person’s dreams. According to Konrad J. Kaweczynski, “Only good dreams would be allowed to filter through… Bad dreams would stay in the net, [...]
