Bowler Hats


The bowler hat trend has been on my radar for a while, but I have always been too chicken to pop that hat on my head....until now! That's right I finally bought this wardrobe staple *hurrrrah* Bowler hats are a quirky trend that give an indie edge to any outfit. The traditional bowler hat has that Charlie Chaplin round bowler head. As I have a rather large head, any time I tried one on I immediately took it off again. Thanks to Topshop my problem has been solved. The correct name is a Pork Pie hat, It is just more squared on the crown. Grab it here. This is a great version, even if the original style doesn't suit you. You can find the bowler version here. Who else loves this trendy hat?!

Makeup: Laura Mercier Body Bronzing Makeup

Firstly I have been neglecting my blog a lot lately. However it was for a good reason.....news of that very, very soon!!!

This weather and cold is getting my skin down. When I say down I mean it is now almost translucent.....whitegirlproblems! Take a moment to grieve our long lost summer tans!! With the sun no where to be found and my summer glow a distant memory. Fear not, I have found a saviour thanks to one of my best friends....shout out to my sista from another mistta Lolly :) Laura Mercier's Body Bronzing is probably the best body bronzer out there for any skin tone. This is a hero in a bottle gals!! It gives you just enough bronze and glow without ruining you clothes; and it smells amazing almond coconut milk heaven. The price tag is the only downfall at €47.....but it's worth it. To get the most out of it and less of a bronze I add Soap and Glory's Glow Lotion to the mix also. These two blend like a dream. Who wouldn't want instant radiant, bronzed skin- without the long term commitment?! I'm hooked :)

Style Icon: Christine Centenera

Christine Centenera, was Australian Harper's Bazaar fashion editor and is now Vogue Australia's newly appointed senior fashion editor, is also a celebrity stylist, street style icon and a great fashion mind behind Kanye West's clothing line. Often dressed in Hermes, Burberry, Celine and the rest of high class brand names, but at the same time wearing them in her own uncopiable way....did you hear that Kim Kardashian!!! 

Christine is not intimidated by matching oversized clothes with statement shoes. It's the opposite - she is in the minority of people who can pull it off! She loves her leather pants as much as I do, she's wearing them very often as a wardrobe essential, usually matched with fur and super high heels for ultimate glam outfits, while messy hair and slightly baggy items give her that effortless and fun but very chic look. Love, love, love! <3

She likes to keep it simple with basic colors in her wardrobe: black, white, nude and grey.Christine cane never be accused of looking plain, she spices up her outfits with huge designer sunglasses, statement jewelry and lots of studs. Check out some of her to die for looks below.

Hi guys, sorry I have been absent lately ! I have been under the weather for a while :( I do have fashion to cheer me up though! I decided to start up new pages....yehhhhh! You can now find me on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/fashionlandbymars all likes appreciated....spread the word! If you have a page just leave a link and I will check it out. I love finding new fashion pages on fb as they have lots of inspiration. I also joined Instagram, you can search fashionlandbymars and I should pop up!

I have bought some cool pieces lately mainly from Topshop and Zara. As you know from previous blogs I adore all things leather. I have been on the lookout for a leather skirt for ages. I had my heart set on an ASOS beauty and it sold out! Just by luck I found a similar one in Topshop, I didn't even try it on, I just had to have it!!!! I also love this army trend, it's so casual chic and totally my style. I got a great jacket in River Island that I live in....love it! My friend Laura and I got these cool neon and skull bracelets in Zara, our take on friendship bracelets! Check out my other pieces below and let me know what you think.
