Shoegazer Fashion: Abstract prints

This season I am in love with abstract / smudge print garments. I can't put my finger on why exactly, but all I know is I can't get enough! Here are some images from various "look books" to illustrate my current fashion fad :)
Above: This outfit is from the Ermie look book and I just love the pairing of the bold, smudge-print skirt with the muted, delicate print grey top.  
Above: These two outfits from the Wilfred look book are beautiful. The outfit on the right is definately a look I would wear for everyday activities. The smudge-print skirt features large, draped pockets at either side, making it practical and teaming it with a chunky knit cardi and opaque tights makes it perfect for this cold weather. WANT.
Above: This abstract print top is from the wonderful Anthropologie and is a garment I actually own :D The deliciously soft, cowl-neck top features twists of fabric (embellished with little bronze beads) that add unusual lines to the garment. The print reminds me somewhat of Alexander McQueen's famous animal/reptile print collection (see here for what I mean). Anyway, I love it.
Above & Below: These outfits are from a Something Else / Natalie Wood look book. I adored the whole look book but these two outfits to me look very wearable and really opitomise the style direction I wanted to go in this Winter.

What is your fashion-fad this season? Are you into abstract prints too? Or perhaps the camel trend? Or has something else caught your eye?... Please share :) x

Shoegazer Finds: Nancy Zhang / Giia Jewellery

A fashion find for you today from 24 year old illustrator Nancy Zhang who accompanies every Look Book post she makes with a gorgeous illustration of herself in the outfit. I love this idea! And I love her outfits!
Check her out on Look Book and on her Blog.
If, like me, you're a jewellery-magpie, then your eye was probably drawn to the statement necklace seen here in the first and last pictures ... this statement bib necklace is made of felt with gold eyelets and comes from Milan-based Etsy user GIIA. Find the exact necklace here. The GIIA shop has some truly amazing felt jewellery.
