Style Profile - Alexandra Agoston

Australian born Alexandra is stunning by anyone’s standards. But what makes her more exciting is her racially-ambiguous good looks. You can't really decipher what nationality she is which lends to her appeal. Combine this with her simple aesthetic (clean face, simple hair and uncomplicated clothes) which establish an amazing canvas for the designer.





Want to channel her off duty look?

Grow out your hair and avoid hair colour. Stick to a muted colour palette highlighted by bare skin.

Thursday Street Style - Look of the day

This look is brought to you courtesy of The Sartorialiast.
It is simple yet effortless and also a bit shabby. A relaxed and stylish vision! Perfect for a Thursday style snippet.
It would be terribly easy to recreate, as I’m sure many of you would have some if not all of the pieces in this look.
Hope you like!

Style Syrup is back

The hiatus is over!

It has been over a year since my last post. But, I am ready to relaunch this blog and turn it in to something I am very excited about. Of course my readership is likely down to one (me).

But in any case, if you are out there and you read this than I thank you for taking time out to read and hope you find something interesting.

Kate and necklaces

I need to find a necklace like the one Kate is wearing here. The ones I have seen look tacky and awful and I would just rather not go there. I know many of you think that the beauty of layering necklaces is that you can use a bunch of cheap ones and still achieve the look. However, it's just not working for me.
Well it is Friday, so there is a whole weekend just waiting for me to look for such a piece.
I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Morning pretty

A mix of lovely things to start your day.


The beautiful Russian - Valerija Erokhina (Something in the water I tells ya).


Pretty, light and airy lingerie. Maintain that summer thrill.



Attitude

Gaudy skirts are sometimes very very fun

This is a quick post on the the Brocade skirt. I want to wear it with leather or fur(not real of course). Although, I don't own said skirt, I believe it would be a truly versatile item. Thus, it must be purchased.
What do you think of the brocade skirt. Do you have one or ten? If so, where did you get it or them?

Alright, so it may not be the definition of gaudy. I actually tried to find something really crazy to post. Alas, I could not find any clothing outrageous enough. So if you want to recommend a collection with a deliciously gaudy element well now that would be "delightful''.
