Just Because Mondays

The series, Just Because Mondays, is my way of easing in to a new week of blogging. It will feature what is top on my list of desires so it can be absolutely anything.


Today's post is clothing that I would so love to have in my closet:


- An outfit by the late Alexander McQueen.

- This dress I came across on Aspinal of London...I don't know who designed it but it's exactly what I imagine wearing in my office...when it's been completed...it's currently storage. Not sure what's up with the vapid look on the model's face.

- Last but certainly not by any means least...silk crepe bra and briefs from Carine Gilson available through Net-a-Porter.

What's with the obsession for the colour blush? Truth be told I'm uncomfortable wearing pale pretty colors but I've decided if I can't wear it I'll paint my office in it. Now that I've made that decision...I am finding I am wanting to try wearing it. Too bad for me my taste runs a wee bit expensive!

It had me at Yello

I love the yellow as the accent color to this brown palette. The ceiling sort of rounds out the room yet is unexpected...completes it don't you think?

Yellow, corresponding with earth, is considered the most beautiful color. The Chinese saying, Yellow generates Yin and Yang, implies that yellow is the center of everything. Associated with but ranked above brown, yellow signifies neutrality and good luck. Yellow is sometimes paired with red in place of gold.

Yellow also represents freedom from worldly cares and is thus esteemed in Buddhism. - via Wikipedia
