Ilaria Nistri FW12-13

So we just received in the latest collection from Ilaria Nistri at work (Husk) and I have to say, I am totally in love. I pretty much want everything from the whole collection. I love all the styles, the colours, the fits and the materials used. The Maxi skirt with the split open front, seen in the second and third photos below in white, the sixth and ninth photo in black (one has a leather trim- which is even more amazing), and also in the beautiful almost 'chartreuse/lime' colour-way as well as the khaki green, is my favourite piece in the whole collection. I am dying for it! It looks so good on and makes your legs look super long! The drape knits, oversized cuts and layering are all part of the 'look' and make for the perfect silhouette. I actually want to save for one of everything, including the over the knee, black leather wedges worn throughout the look book below, which are so so hot!!! I can imagine them being extremely expensive, but I can see myself wearing them to death throughout winter making the price totally worth it!! I'll just need to convince someone to buy it for me :)

Leather and Studs.

My favourite material would have to be leather. Pants, tops, shoes, belts, dresses - if it's leather, I'm pretty much in love! My favourite piece would have to be my Scanlan and Theodore pants I'm wearing below. They took me a good 6 weeks to pay off but definitely worth it! I have worn them to death! Then I'm wearing this beautiful Friend of Mine burgundy top and killer heals. The designer Teale is actually a good friend of mine so it can get quite confusing when someone asks, 'Whose your top by?' Friend of Mine who is a friend of mine. haha! She's so so talented and her designs are known to fly out the door! Very cool, easy wearable pieces and really affordable which helps! Also wearing my leather studied leather gloves by Ksubi, which I bought 3 years ago when I used to manage the retail store in Armadale, Melbourne. Then I also have buckle 'boot harnesses' on with chains around my boots which I bought last year from Dakota. They are amazing! You can literally unbuckle them and put them on any of your boots/ heels to give them a different look- add a lil somethin' somethin'. Anyway, I love winter dressing- beanies, layers, knits and I always love accessorising with as many jewels I can find! Getting into the darker shades of lipstick and nails too at the moment. Anyway, little bit of playing around on photoshop in the photos below (cause it's really not obvious at all!?) Hope your all having a nice weekend!! xx
