OOTD || Comfy Way to run some errands

This morning, after rolling from side-to-side in my bed around 9am contemplating whether to quickly go to Croydon to do something I should have done earlier this week or not, I decided to grab anything that will go with my trainers.

 And this is what I came up with lol -

To pair with my air max 1's,I have my soft pair of jeans, plain tee and a leather jacket. I admit I'm a sucker for my typical Topshop nude ballet flats; I wear them in the rain, when it's 2 degrees and in the sunshine but with this cold weather, I had to keep them inside and roll out in my air max 1's.  I did not even realize how comfy trainers can be!

 

 Trainers : Footlocker

Jeans : Zara

Tee : Topshop

Jacket : ASOS

Scarf Alexander McQueen

So Dior Exhibition ... 4th Floor

Yesterday afternoon along with Sachan, I went along to see the So Dior exhibition at Harrods of London which has been running for quite some time and officially closes 14 April. The exhibition celebrates the longstanding link between the House of Dior and the United Kingdom. Many french luxury houses are known for having great admiration for England and its treasure and you get to see this throughout the exhibition, we even noticed a connection with Harrods the store!

 

The giant chair ! a replica of the original chairs at Christian Dior's first presentation ... and something more recent designed by the new director Raf Simons, which Natalie Portman wore for the Miss Dior perfume advert.

Once you enter the Dior exhibition section, you are greeted with tour guides (who were rather dashing - if i say so myself) and they took us around to show assist us in providing more information if we needed to know anything more about the exhibition  They were very helpful and seemed very keen in making us know all the thoughts and processing behind the brand and products.

 Miniature recreations of memorable designs .. Don't you just want to take your friends little sister's barbie doll and dress her up in all of them?

 Various perfume bottles 

 Just to name a few of the many iconic dresses within the exhibition : On the left, worn by Elizabeth Taylor and on the right, worn by Audrey Hepburn

My favorite part of the exhibition, the j'adore room! with the dress from the advert and we, even got to here about the story behind the perfume, the shape and the making of the advert (well, it's something we knew already, and you could find out from the behind-the-scenes on the youtube channel)

 When you finish going round the exhibition  you are welcomed with the biggest dior bag you will ever see - a projection of the creation of a dior bag . The amount of time it takes to make one single bag, and care.

Overall, I enjoyed the exhibition; twas wonderful !

Thursday Thoughts - Marilyn Monroe

Don't you just love it when you feel good and comfortable in a good pair of shoes?

I love this quote so much that I remix it with every item in my closet ... like instead of saying shoes, I may say Hat or lip color lol.

Hopefully, a full ootd blog post will come up on here soon, these heels aren't the typical pair that are to be matched with some of my outfits, but I think, these babies could somehow compliment another statement piece. I feel like experimenting with these, sooner than later ;)

New Purchase: Zara

Jacquard Blazer and Leopard Heels : Zara

Something about these two individual items struck me during a stroll in the Covent Garden Zara that sunny afternoon during fashion week, (does anyone remember that burst of sunshine and mild warmth the Friday of London Fashion Week?) and I was tempted to buy the blazer and another light jacquard blazer there and then, but thought I should have a little think about them. Soon ended up changing my mind about the other one as my eyes found these babies, recently I grown a slight fetish with leopard print, recently bought a scarf form M&S, courts from Wallis, reconstructed my skater skirt (from river island which I bought from last yea)r, and when I found these on the app, I was like BOOM! They're cute for a daily outing in summer or during the night with a LBD.  

Hopefully, an OOTD post will come up soon ...
