Clear Eyes



Sorry for being missing-in-action (otherwise sailing) this past week. It's been a long one. To break it down; four new bruises, maybe a broken finger, blonder hair, interesting tan lines, seven foot waves, many boats, and one regatta. 

That's Laser sailing for you. I have no idea what motivates me to work through waves that break over my head or when my quads are on fire from hiking upwind, but that little spark inside me (wherever the hell it is!) tells me to work harder and better. Despite a sore body and a towering stack of overdue homework, I'm ready to fly home after an eye-opening week on the water. 

A change in the tides here (pun fully intended).... This wrap waist playsuit from Zara is the best excuse of dressing up. Fellow black cats rejoice! 

One more thing.

The ideal way to sum up this week is quoting my favorite (errr.. fictional) sports team. the Dillion Panthers.

Coven Mood

Wearing: Asos top, Chanel skirt, Zara jacket, Chanel ballet flats, Topshop choker

Some serious coven moods today. 
At least, I'm already taking notes from Lacoste, and including some racing stripes and a lightweight anorak thrown over flowing fabrics. I think we all can agree I'm acing Runway to Real Life 101.... or yacht party gone dark... jokes, jokes.

Not So Basic


If I fully admit to my monochromatic addiction, Zara and other stores will go out of business thanks to me single-handily. 

Hi, my name is Sloane and all I wear is black and white. 

I cannot exactly pinpoint when my wardrobe began to only consist of several neutral colors... or should I say shades? Let us not forget those important Kindergarten lessons of learning that black and white are not colors, but shades. Anyway, the monochrome erm... "problem" started way back when I purchased this playsuit from the main culprit, Zara. Alas, as you can guess bare legs don't fly in a) the winter and b) when jumpsuits are the happening thing in my wardrobe. The outfit-in-one used to stump me a little, specifically due to my height and the overall factor of the jumpsuit- i.e. not looking like you've wound up in Studio 54 or Top Gun. However, the black brings down the imitation factor a notch. 

Don't get me wrong here, every blue under the sun is still in a close tie with the monochrome shades, but this whole ninja manner that I'm sporting sold me to the dark side. Unlike most my solution to this said problem is to embrace and roll with it (ninja style).

And simply because it is Friday, I'm just going to keep playing off this ninja quip for the sake of it. 

Since my post on ear cuff bling, amping up my hardware game has been a top priority of mine when it comes to rolling out of bed each morning- pssstt! Another reason why jumpsuits are the bomb.com (lazy girl standards at its best). It's about time I donned this warrior meets runway cuff from my favorite American designer of all, Oscar de la Renta. The best match for my ninja jumpsuit...

Okay, okay. I assume that I've rambled on plenty about the importance of a jumpsuit, black, and such. 

Cheers to Friday!

Spooked



Zara turtleneck // Charlie Jade blazer // James Jeans jeans

Due to tomorrow's spooky holiday, I thought I wore dress a little more in the spirit. I am not a massive fan of the holiday, instead I will be spending the day sailing and watching Hocus Pocus: this girl doesn't do scary movies. On another note, I've been wearing more black and edgier clothes than normal, but I'm kinda loving it. I would love to know if are a little more in the spirit than I am- share below!
