Family trip to safari park

I would like to share some lovely photos from the visit to Safari Park and forest in England.

It was few months ago and I had that time bit more cooper hair colour than recently

I was wearing dark blue skinny jeans with elegant and smart jacket in deep purple colour and purple silk top with lilac vintage pearl necklace. I have compliment the purple and blue combination with lovely blue silk scarf with elements of green,orange and purple . I have added as well my favourite DKNY saffiano nude bag and short cowgirls boots in similar shade like a bag.

We had a lovely time and plenty fun

The purple Meeda Ted Baker double breasted blazer was a perfect choice for warm spring day out .

The Exotic Wilderness Silk Scarf with multicolour print just highlight the outfit perfectly .

I am really intrigued about the Australian brand KellyLove who has created this lovely scarf .
His limited edition scarf is to celebrate collaboration between Kelly Love and renowned brand Aussie Haircare. Exclusive to Aussie Hair care, the scarf features a hand-painted print by Kelly Love.

Up and coming Aussie designer Kelly Love has teamed up with fellow Aussies in the hair and beauty world to create a silk scarf in time for summer.

The Australian born, London-based designer has created the Aussie Miracle Shine scarf as part of her spring/summer 2013 collection - and showcased the design as part of a mini fashion show held at the May Fair hotel in London.

Kelly, whose designs have been worn by Kimberley Walsh, Kimberley Wyatt and Lydia Bright in recent weeks, among others, used the scarf, which was inspired by a floral print that featured in her current collection, to give models' hair added flair in the show.

Young, fresh, accessible: Aussie describe Kelly Love's designs, like the Aussie Miracle Shine scarf by Kelly Love £80, right, as being the perfect fit for their brand

The scarf, printed from one of Kelly's hand-painted designs, was styled into an up-do by Aussie's brand ambassador Liz Thaw to create a retro, Fifties-inspired do Liz says is easy to recreate at home.

It's a quick, colourful way to give yourself a stand-out style too. Wrapped around the front as an alice band with the rest of the hair in a bun it's a cheat's way to cover up hair you haven't had time to wash. Twisted around a band it will give a bun a boost. Or plaited into the hair and pinned into a big, messy bun, you can get a bright, vintage look in moments.

Kelly, who started out in couture but made the leap to ready-to-wear, says she was delighted to team up with the haircare giant - a move that will no doubt elevate her profile in a big way.

'It's great to work with someone like Aussie, who has such a big influence in the beauty and hair world,' she said.

Aussie brand ambassador Liz Taw said the fit with Kelly Love was perfect.

When I saw Kelly's work, I really loved l it,' said Liz Taw, ambassador for the Aussie haircare brand. 'She's young and fresh without being unaccessible.'

Collaboration: Designer Kelly Love, centre, used a print from her 2013 collection to create the Aussie scarf, which was taken by Aussie's brand ambassador and stylist Liz Taw and incorporated into one of the model's (second right) retro hairstyles

In the short video below, Liz demonstrates how to use the silk scarf to create a retro, Fifties-style hairdo.

Firstly, fix the hair into a ponytail. Divide the ponytail into two sections. Fix the scarf into the hairband. Plait each section. taking one half of a length of the scarf into the plait to weave it through the hair.

Twist and pin the plait into a big, messy bun, and tweak the ribbon so that it is showing on the surface of the hair.

Follow Liz's instructions in the video for adding a second scarf for a really dramatic retro look that is, Liz assures us, easy to achieve.

Some other combination with pale orange top Alita by Ted Baker

I love these ombre orange-red nails design and will do one day but today I will show some different orange one nails created by my lovely beauty artist

Also I have to mention about other some special bargain which I bought few months ago but never had opportunity to wear so far but hopefully in next year will be some occasion .

First time I had contact with this brand on some car boot sale market when i saw some flat moccasin same branded like this sandals above .At first I did not know what is this brand but I have started to search on line and finally found out more about them.It is famous with celebrities shoes and bags Italian designer Charlotte Olimpia .

Luxury shoes and accessories designer Charlotte Olympia Dellal began designing from her love of fashion and the art of corsetry.

Charlotte took her passion to Cordwainers, the world-renowned college for footwear and accessories in London. Here she was able to explore her interests alongside technical training in the craftsmanship of beautiful shoes. Soon after graduating, Charlotte pursued her love of fashion and launched her eponymous London based shoe brand in January 2008.

Charlotte Olympia designs have become synonymous with classic sophistication and meticulous attention to detail. Inspired by a bygone era of old Hollywood glamour, iconic styles such as the Dolly with its signature 'island' platform, the distinctive Kitty flats and perspex Pandora clutch box are in keeping with the brand's feminine design philosophy. All designs are handcrafted in Italy using only the finest materials and each shoe is finished with a signature gold spider's web on the sole. The brand's leopard prints, fan detailing and arresting use of colour have quickly become design classics; coveted by celebrities and stylish women alike.

The brand continues to expand its product lines to include, not only captivating heels, but also an array of flats, boots and accessories. Charlotte Olympia now develops four seasonal collections a year as well as 'Encore' - a permanent collection of signature silhouettes, 'Runaway Bride', 'To Dye For', 'Cosmic', 'Incy' and the most recently launched 'Tailor Made' bespoke service.

Charlotte Olympia enjoys a growing international retail presence of three stores in Mayfair, Manhattan and Beverly Hills as well as online and in shop-in-shops in Asia. The collections are also stocked in some of the world's most prestigious retailers including Harrods, Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, On Pedder, Isetan, Printemps and Beymen.

It was one of those hand made shoes above with horoscope decoration and swarovski crystals.

I have spent some time of thinking if I should get or not as was unique and sophisticated but decided to not buy it .Later on the shoes was sold out.

The shoes on this market was probably replica as the price was too cheap but quality was not bad .I am the type who sometimes think to much and finally often missed a lot of good bargain .

Anyway few days later after studying about the Charlotte designer I went to Selfridges shop to discover and admire the brand in real.

I mostly concentrated on this flat suede moccasin model and find out as there were pretty but not really comfortable and soft leather like I was expecting from so expensive and italian hand made product .Was feeling bit disappointed at that time .

Later on I managed to find this model which I bought for Ascot event but decided to wear something else instead .

Charlotte Olympia peach Patricia sandals. Handmade. Heel measures approximately 85mm/ 3.5 inches. Satin. Peep toe, signature gold web plaque at sole. Zip fastening along back. Designer color: Apricot.

Patricia model is really comfortable and classy perfect for any formal event or weeding .
It is in light pale orange apricot shade
They are all carefully crafted and the sole has metal logo hand made attached
Really piece of art and jewellery
They come in the white elegant branded box and also include luxurious dust bag, book and certificate

I need to wear them definitely

Sport in my life

To look healthy we need to include some exercise regime in our life .I am not a big fanatic of fitness but I am forcing myself to do some exercise and stay fit .

I usually visit the gym twice a week and once a week doing some swimming session which is perfect for my back issues and general relaxation of my body .

Swimming is very therapeutic and also helps to stretch and relax the whole body.

Due to problems with back I am not able to do too much and need to keep everything in moderation .

In the gym I usually do some cardiovascular exercise.

My favourite comfortable outfits for the gym is the velour tracksuit by Juicy Couture in many colourful variation .

The shoes is the biggest problem for me as my feet are usually sweat a lot and I need good,comfortable , durable and breathing pair of trainers .

At the moment all world is crazy about the Nike Air Max but for me only few models of this type it is suiting me and bringing my attention

One of these I managed to get in good reduced price and I love them so much already

It is the iconic Nike Flyknit Air Max design especially for running but perfect also for the gym or walking

They are coming in wide selection of bright colours which are nicely mixed and they are looking different than the standard Air Max .

Did you know that the Nike Flyknit Air Max is the lightest ever Air Max shoe

For the first time, Nike has paired innovative Nike Flyknit technology with the ultra-cushioned ride of Air Max. Nike Flyknit allows designers to precision-engineer areas of support and breathability into a virtually seamless upper, delivering a superior, lightweight fit. The Flyknit Air Max also integrates Flywire technology for additional support throughout the upper.

The Nike Flyknit Air Max offers runners a lighter, more flexible and ultra-cushioned ride and are highlighted by a two-color faded airbag. Nike designers leveraged runner’s insights combined with data from the Nike Sports Research Lab to increase flexibility and decrease weight in the outsole. To further improve the design, the team incorporated unique flex grooves that encourage a smoother transition. Shaving even more weight, the designers took a cue from Nike’s heritage by using a redesigned Waffle outsole for better traction.

The Nike Flyknit Air Max is the latest introduction to the legendary Air Max franchise. The original Nike Air Max 1 was the first shoe to feature visible air and revolutionized the athletic footwear industry, reshaping the design landscape for performance running footwear. In the years following, Air Max shoes have become the epitome of running performance and style.

I have compliment the orange-purple model with Adidas Stella McCartney 3/4 tracksuit trousers, basic white cotton t shirt and bright orange messenger bag by Ted Baker .One my head I have purple vintage sunglasses by Ralph Lauren .
