May Inspiration
“Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.”
– Coco Chanel
Happy Monday & welcome to a brand new week! And the beginning of the lovely month of May (well almost!).
My May confession…. I want to paint the town red! I cannot seem to get enough of this bold, alluring shade! The colour of love, passion and seduction – it has that unmistakable va-va-voom. From my fashion choices to accessories and my upcoming CaraGray.com collection (which you may have seen an outtake from on Instagram & Twitter yesterday) – I simply cannot get enough of ravishing red.
Some of my other May inspirations….
The Rock-Star Style Of Georgia Jagger; Delectable Red Dresses; Precious Red Lips; Gorgeous Drew Barrymore; Perfect Fashion Illustrations; Kate Spade; The Sweetest Of Delights; Photographer Ellen Von Unwerth; Darling Kate Moss; Printed Silk Scarves; Travel; Beautiful Art in Charming Homes; Stella McCartney; Intoxicating Prints; Tangerine…

What I Wore Today…
Ok I will admit it, I have a stripe obsession. Classic, elegant and with a chic minimalism – the iconic striped shirt is a wardrobe must-have.
I have several striped shirts (skirts and dresses!) in various colours in my closet. This Witchery white shirt with green stripes is comfortable yet effortlessly polished – throw it on and go! I am also currently in love with cat-eye sunglasses! The lenses exude that Old-Hollywood glamour and movie-star appeal. Just looking at them makes me want to jet-set off to a far away location.
Today I had a wonderful day of relaxation, family and fun. I wore my Witchery striped top with my Stella McCartney for Target skirt; Oroton cat-eye sunglasses; and Prada handbag. I started off the morning by having my nails done; before a lovely lunch with my family; and movie night at home with my husband… a gorgeous day xx
