OOTD All that glitters is actually silver

A little play on the saying 'all that glitters is gold', well in my mind it's actually silver. My outfit today definitely shows the shine
I paired my acid wash denim shirt with my black wet-look/leather look skater skirt with my silver boxy camisole underneath

 I then just added my faux converse to keep the look young and casual and not too worker looking

So here is a better idea of the silver pleated camisole, so the outfit could have been worn like this if I was in the sun more today but i was mainly indoors so I didn't over heat too much

Here's a close up of the details, the silver stud embellishments on my denim shirt and my silver midi rings for some added sparkle

OOTD Jekyll + Hyde

So my outfit today gives me a Jekyll and Hyde feel, I couldn't decide if I wanted to be good or bad. It's funny that with a simple change of shoes the outfit gets a completely different look to it, but seeing as I am taking advantage of my boss not being around, I went for the Mr Hyde.


Just to add to the spooky topic, this was a picture that i took the other night through my boyfriend's telescope. So this is before I cropped it. I love having access to a telescope, the amazing things I've seen are crazy, for instance I have actually seen Saturn and the belt around it, which was amazing, I plan to get a much stronger telescope at some point though because not all the planets are as clear as what Saturn was.

This is after I cropped it, amazing how you can see all those scratchy marks all over thee moon and its craters on the sides. Truly amazing to see thee moon so clearly.

Okay now back to my outfit...I just paired my black polka dot crop top with a high-waisted grey skirt and my combat boots, so simple and yet so cute.

Then for accessories, I continued my midi ring obsession with my silver set of rings here

And then added this stunning vintage silver coin necklace, this is actually an old South African coin from when we were still under the British rule. Its a 2 an half shillings coin with Elizabeth 2 Regina's face on it. One of my favourite necklaces.

I like that this outfit could either have gone very elegant and pretty or very grunge. A good outfit to turn from day to night look in my opinion

Witching Hour

So this is some part new things which I bought myself and then others are things that my Mom brought me back from England from H&M! YAY! And this blog is aptly named for my Favourite item from H&M.

But first things first, here are some accessories that I have been searching high and low for, been to many a shop in search, These are from South Africa. 
The top set of midi rings are from a jewelry shop in Crest Shopping Center, Randburg, called LOVISA. And Thank you to them for having a huge selection of Midi rings, I was really spoiled for choice and struggled to only take the ones that I did end up with, so now I have a gold and silver set, which is a good start.

Secondly, this midi ring and hand chain/slave bracelet are from Mr Price, love the slave bracelet but the midi ring needed some alterations, I removed some links to make to chains shorter and cut one of the rings to make it smaller to fit like a midi ring because they are meant to be descending sizes but they were all the same size, so not exactly a well thought out ring, but its better now after my alterations.


Here, I bought this skirt a while back, it was in one of my earlier posts,  but haven't really worn it as I haven't like the ways that I could pair it, so I bought this cream bodysuit with this gorgeous Victorian yoke lace neckline, so now it is complete!!!

 So here is my first item that I got from H&M, its a cute jersey material slouchy tank which I love and I paired it with a bright orange tank underneath which I though would be super cute!


So Last but far from least, this gorgeous dress from H&M!!!!! Words cannot express how in LOVE I am with this dress!!!! Its, from what I have been able to establish from the internet, a slub jersey dress? I love how its somewhat see through, so you can wear things underneath and they will show through. I paired it with a black slip dress that I had from one of my lace dresses.
 So here I have basically gone with all black hence the title choice, it reminds me of something worn in the film The Craft.
 So to further embrace the witchy vibes I pulled my black cat into my pics here, obviously you can't be a witch without your trusty black cat! LOL. Although she was not having any of it.
 And here are my midi rings which I asked my mother to get for me because at that time I hadn't found any here yet, and a girl can never have enough accessories. Also from H&M, I love the antique look to these rings and all the different shapes and designs, very special ones these. 

So all in all I need to move to a country with H&M. That is the moral of this story. You hear me Obama, I need to move to America for the awesome clothes please! Thank you!
