FEB PHOTO A DAY

I'm getting so excited for the February Photo A Day Challenge! I didn't get to do the January challenge - so I have been hanging out 20 or so days ( I saw the challenge 10 days late - I do realise there's 31 days in Jan) for January to finish the hell up so I can go crazy with my phone in Feb!

I hope you guys join in - all you have to do is take a photo a day and share it on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr, your blog or where ever it is you want to share. Make sure If you're sharing on Instagram or Twitter use the hashtag #FEBphotoaday - that way everyone can find them!

Come and follow my photo a day journey by searching @allymaycarey on instagram! At the end of Feb, I will make a collage of all my Feb photos and share it on my blog for those of you who don't have instagram or twitter!

Let's get creative.

Thanks to FatMumSlim for creating such an amazing/rad concept!

Paris!


Paris! The fourth and final city for the season. So let's take a look at some of my favourite street style photos and take note of how catwalk trends translate to the streets of Paris!

  1. 1. I don't think the The Clarins sister's can do any wrong. I didn't notice until now they have featured twice in my collage. Number 1 and number 7.
  2. 2. Over-sized jumper teamed with boyfriend jeans and a statement necklace. What a winning outfit - on several accounts.
  3. 3. Soft pastels and glitter heels. A perfect on-trend girly outfit. That clutch is beautiful.
  4. 4. I am all for peterpan style collars and being able to wear summery shorts with jackets. 
  5. 5. Love a good printed tee. I would wear this outfit head to toe. Accessorised perfectly.
  6. 6. Anna Dello Russo showing us how to wear a mini dress. What a beautiful cut this one is.
  7. 7. As mention in point number one - The Clarins sister's know how to dress. Each of their outfits in this photo is executed perfectly. 
  8. 8. I have a soft spot for red at the moment - so it's a given I like this. Plus I love seeing people colour block. I just wouldn't wear it...
  9. 9. That hat. Enough said.

Happy Monday. We have lots of gorgeous WKB stock coming this week!

Summertime sadness

I won't bore you with me complaining about the weather - all I will say about it is, that it has forced me to dress for comfort. There's nothing worse than already feeling gross from the weather and wearing something that isn't season appropriate. So cue vintage boyfriends jeans, loafers and an oversized tee. Some might call an outfit like this "man repelling" or whatever you wish to call it. But seriously the jokes on you if you're out in your best shoes and finest designer outfit with this forecast. If that car splashed you on the foot path  - you probably deserved it.

Hope you're all having an awesome weekend where ever you are in the world!

Million Dollar Man


"One for the money, two for the show
I love you honey, and so I'm ready, I'm ready to go
How did you get that way? I don't know
You're screwed up, you're brilliant,
You look like a million dollar man,
So why is my heart broke?"

"I don't know,
You're screwed up, you're brilliant,
You look like a million dollar man,
So why is my heart broke?"

WHOKILLEDBAMBI GUIDE


This morning I woke up to it raining yet again. I am so sick of it - but instead of it getting the better of me I thought I could use it to my advantage. I love styling and I love helping people out, so what better way to do both than to write a guide for WHOKILLEDBAMBI'S Facebook followers on "How to dress when It's raining".

This is my guide! I hope you enjoy it.

Come and follow WKB on facebook (Here), as I am thinking of doing this regularly!

Wind in my hair







WEARING: Shoes c/o Tony Bianco, Jeans old Ksubi style customised by me, Leopard belt General Pants, D&G sunglasses c/o Shadesdaddy, Tank c/o Mad Love, House of Harlow ring from my friend and Karen Walker necklace

It's a skill to stand in heels in gale force wind and not fall head over, uh, heels. I'm not saying I have it down to a fine art, but I did manage to escape unharmed. Though, I may need one litre of Pantene's finest de-tangler.

Ankle boots have always been one of my weaknesses. But who would go weak at the knees when they saw these all leather boots? I love the side gusset detailing and the hook shape heel is different from any other pair of boots I own - so they really are the perfect addition to my shoe collection! I think you will see these feature a lot on Unknown Pleasures!!

Come and Follow TB on Facebook here! They always have the best competitions running!

PS: We have new stock in store tomorrow for WKB!!! YAY!!!

Swagger

This jersey playsuit by the girls at Stylestalker makes you feel as though you're wearing nothing at all. Pull it up, add some accessories and you're ready to bounce. I'm sort of thinking that my boyfriend wishes my entire wardrobe was filled with these - then he wouldn't have to wait around for me to get dressed.

The neutral tone is what drew me to this piece in the first place. You can wear it with anything. My personal fav is tan accessories.

This playsuit is now on sale at Stylestalker - you can find it here

Wayfarer

Summer brights - summer shades.

Breo are renowned for their stylish watches, but did you know they make some pretty sick shade as well? My personal favourite is orange and black wayfarer ones that I am wearing in the above photos. The subtle hint of orange peaking through just adds that much needed splash of colour in summer.

I wanted to show you guys these sunglasses in photos from teh beach - but the days I wore them, I didn't have the camera handy!

Keep up to date with Breos products here

Happy Thurday!

Skips on the record

I'd like to think when wearing these "Loafers", "Slippers" that I look more fashion and less Hugh Hefner. I bought these ones from Rubi and decided that If I don't end up liking them, then it's okay because they're only $29.95.

I am so in love with these soft, satin, scalloped hemmed shorts. They were a staple whilst I was away. The colour is perfect for summer and they go with EVERYTHING

Wearing: Bettina Liano shirts, One Teaspoon Tank, Rubi Shoes Lindsay Slipper, Nixon watch, Random bangles
