Minty Vanilla

Gok Wan would love my wardrobe. Like he suggests, I only have about 25 key pieces that I work with daily. No item in my wardrobe goes unpunished; they are all used and abused until they are completely violated and no longer befitting for public viewing.

Sunday afternoon was an impromptu lunch with the girls and seeing as we were headed to Café Royal, I decided on a gelato inspired outfit. It began with a scoop of plain vanilla chinos; I then layered it with a minty flavoured blouse and topped it off with a sprinkling of gold dust in the form of my braided necklace.

Going down quite the treat, I thought I’d rough it up a little with acid stained walls as the background to my amateur shoot. Hope you like…..

Uniqlo Save Japan Tees

Uniqlo and the Condé Nast Group came together to create a limited edition collection of ‘Save Japan’ T-shirts. These T-shirts are in aid of the parts of the country that were affected by the earthquake and the whole idea is for the profits to be donated to the Japanese Red Cross.

Being the Uniqlo fan that she is, on hearing about these charity Tees, Taiwo (TaDeRa, @SportMillionsMe) bought two: Charlize Theron and Alber Elbaz and I got one: Nicole Kidman. Here are the pictures from our Saturday afternoon photo shoot.

Mine: Nicole Kidman: Support Japan. Give A Hand to Japan.

Taiwo’s: Alber Elbaz: With All My Heart To Japan

Ps: Those that know me will be surprised I didn’t get the Victoria Beckham one. I guess it was too simple for me, and yes I know ‘simplicity is the ultimate elegance’ but there’s no harm in change. Besides, who says I’m not still going to buy it 😉

Pps: You’ll notice our graduation tickets are tucked in between some of the pictures. I’m uber excited. Still trying to sort out my outfit so until then….
