Segue

After a much long hiatus, I am back and ready to devote some much needed time to this blog. I love it dearly and it has been a source of happiness, a place for contemplation, and venue for my thoughts and ideas. My hiatus from The Fine Balance was not planned, though a much needed reprieve. Many things have transpired over the last little while, and I knew I would not have been able to fully devote to my writing and quality pictures and posts if I had continued. I feel refreshed and ready to get back into it and bring you all aspects this space is supposed to offer – Fashion, Fitness and Food related posts.

I hope I can count on all of you to continue with me on my journey.

What I am wearing:
Polka Dot Skirt: Banana Republic Factory
Blouse: J Crew

Peep Toes, Polka Dots & Pearls

My outfit today consists of three of my favourite things: 
1. Peep toe Shoes 
2. Polka Dots
And 
3. PEARLS

 

I find this look has that sophisticated-ness and femininity from days past….Can anyone say Mad Men? 
Though my hair doesn’t seem to follow the beehive trend, I am in love with the classic look.  One thing I should have done perhaps is accent with red as can be seen in this 1957 photo…thoughts?

What I am Wearing

Shoes: Peep Toe From Italy (PrimaDonna)

Skirt: Zara

Top: Urban Behaviour

Sweater: Urban Behaviour

Jewellery: Pearls (My Grandmother)

Channeling Jackie O

I have such a deep appreciation for classic styles and fashions and as most of you have seen from the clothing posts, I love my dark deep colours, and my neutrals. These days however, I have been trying to add in colour, but today I had to go back to my roots and to the fashion, and people in fashion who inspire me the most (Jackie O, Grace Kelly, Coco Chanel). For me its the timeless look that I love. If I could dress like the women in Mad Men do everyday I would! I love the femininity of that Era (not the way women were treated mind you) with smart pinafores, Figure enhancing silhouettes (though I am sure girdles back in the day were not fun....but then again we do have spanxx!), cute leather gloves and of course....the Polka dot.

What I am Wearing

Blouse: H&M (at least 5 years old)
Skirt: Smart Set (going on 3 years)
Jewellery: Pearls - my Grandma (how fitting!)
Ring - Modern Touch-The Bay (2 years ago)

Till Tomorrow...
