APRIL INSPIRATION
“Beneath the makeup & behind the smile I am just a girl who wishes for the world.”
― Marilyn Monroe
I am so excited for April! Over the next few weeks, I will be placing a selection of new pieces on caragray.com & I cannot wait to share them with you.
I will also be launching my tumblr and Pinterest accounts! So be sure to watch this space. AND it is also Cadbury Creme Egg month… need I say more!
Some of my April inspirations….
Vibrant orange; tortoise shell sunglasses; straight bob-length hair; pretty floral prints; pink nail polish tones; The Great Gatsby; Drew Barrymore’s hair colour; Kate Moss at the Ritz after a Chanel shopping spree; timeless, whimsical beauty at the Valentino Fall 2012 collection; the stunning Grace Kelly; being overtly girly playing with lipstick and dressing-up…
What is inspiring you right now? xx

What I Wore…
…was really rather minimal. While I am usually drawn to bold colours and prints, I found it refreshingly delightful sticking to this neutral colour palette.
Camel is one of my favourite neutral tones so when I found this comfortable yet chic light-weight knit from Witchery I brought it straight away. I am also wearing a black lace skirt from Witchery; Mollini heels; and my Prada handbag & sunglasses.
I have had a delightful evening catching up on some reading & a delicious trip to one of my favourite spots for macaroons and an iced mocha. I think I can say now after having tried many macaroon flavours that Raspberry is my absolute favourite…. but a girl has to be certain of these things, so I shall reaffirm over the weekend with a retest.
What is your favourite neutral tone? xx
What I Wore Today…
This is quite the monumental style post for me as I can honestly say I haven’t worn a pair of trousers for approx. 1 ½ years (well only to the gym – but that doesn’t really count)!
I am usually just a dresses & skirts kinda-gal, but these cigarette-length chinos really caught my eye. So I decided to give trousers another try in my wardrobe. I teamed them with the top & cocktail ring I also brought at Witchery last weekend; my Prada handbag; Mollini heels; & my new orange beret… oh la la!
I must have been in quite the ‘Autumnal mood’ as each purchase I brought home was within this orange / brown / neutral tonal palette. I cannot wait for colder Autumn & Winter weather in Australia now… hello hats, hosiery and gorgeous coats! Oh how I have missed you!
