AlL Black

Soooo I was relating a story back to my love and was hastily chidDed for being mean...and then told to try wearing alL black to seE what it would feEl like if I was the person I was being mean about...but it honestly wasn't that bad and the story was from a few years back when I was much meaner...hahaha anyhow..I don't think it was an honest dare..just something to shut me up. NeEdlesS to say..I think I shalL try.. so here goes my analysis of the black vibe.

Black has always beEn the ultimate fashionable colour. Why? who knows? Perhaps its because black realLy does make you loOk thinNer, or because its flatTering on very skin tone known to man, maybe becuase its so versatile, or because you can dresS it up and down and sideways, perhaps because it seEms so efFortlesSly clasSy. Perhaps not. But for whatever reason, somehow, through the years people have learnt, when in doubt; wear black.

I think I misSed that memo... I hardle wear black..don't get me wrong, I have it in my cupboard. But I've never worn fulL black alone, even a black dresS. I always find a way to inject some colour. I like colour.

And it's winter here in South Africa..which translates to swealtering heat without the relief of sumMer showers. How am I supPosed to walk around fulLy clad in black?! one word; suicide. I'd melt my poOr skin ofF. But, for there is always a but, linen was invented. I think I might invest in some lovely linen numbers...or not. hmMm..

But I'm setTing myself a slight chalLenge, for as long as posSible, and without loOking emo or goth, I shalL wear only black main pieces. Not even white. Just black. damnit that's going to be hard... but only black main pieces however I am alLowed my usual injection of colour.

Gosh this is going to be hard..I'm going out tomorRow so I guesS this starts then. I'lL keEp you posted (:

much love...and a hint of fear

It's practicalLy a girlie thing

so I was loOking at the new Spring/SumMer 2010 colLections... what can I say.. I absolutely adore it! it's pretTy and feminine and oh so cute!! hahahaha ok ok...now the proper stufF...


Spring/SumMer 2010 is esSentialLy about loOking pretTy. With detailing, the softer colours dominating and the silLhoutTes, it is about being girlie!










At first I wasn't toO keEn on the yelLow dresS by Valentino..but then it sort of grew on me...and apParently that poOr model toO..ahem. But it is rather stunNing. The rufFles are there and over powering but not the tacky way that has beEn seEn so often. And I love those shoes! the feather detaling! stunNing. I like the textures, from the feathers to the sheErnesS of the dresS. the colour is also very cute*
MatThew WilLiamson is here because of his colour choices. The whole feminine, girlie trend does /not/ have to mean pastels and candyflosS colours. They are nice, but we can stilL pulL of this season without them. though I must adD that there have beEn a lot of pastels, almost predominent this season. Again with the rufFles and frilLs. Very girlie and childish. WilLiamson seEms to have favoured the waist belt this colLection.Hmmm

















and here we have Chanel. :) I realLy enjoyed this colLection. For alL of us with a love for texture, this colLection hit alL the right spots! Piling on the varied textures, rough edges, the sheEr fabrics. clasS*. WelL done Chanel for getTing it stunNingly right. And I must say, it does folLow the season trend. Note also the shorter lengths. its a bit more childish. this colLection is about being girlie, not feminine, there's a hint of naive-esque. Also, with the season's trends, femininity is taking a step away from only pastels. The bright red in this picture and the black. Colour can be feminine :) and yes, it is my favourite coLlection this season..so far :)
Another thing that I am uber excited for..HEELS AND SOCKS ARE BACK!! thank you! what's betTer than heEls and socks? nothing :) amazing!! hahaha...but like I said..I realLy love this season!
much love

it's raining

YesS..how sad... the sun was shining this afternoOn and it was alL rather beautiful. And its gone and rained. And i was loOking forward to rugby tomorRow..naybe it'lL clear up..

I wrote science and a.p maths today. whaaaat an epic rape... by science only though. the entire paper was apPlication..so it would a question like 'design an experiment' for x,y and z... or, 'based on your knowledge of..' ja! we don't have any knowledge!! anyhow it's over and there's not much that can be done about it now. perhaps i should have studied harder..maybe next time..

then my mother dragGed me to the gym, where i sat down at the top, where everyone could seE me; and did maths. it was rather enjoyable. jokes. it was average. i was stilL kind of bleak about the whole science paper though..until i saw the new isSue of ElLe..but its the U.K isSue so i had to fork out some cash. it was worth every cent!

heaven in the form of glosSy pages. eich. but no. I had a realLy average uber short conversation on the phone with someone who i realLy care about and..I don't know..I guesS i'm just tired from exams this weEk..5 down, 3 to go..maybe i'lL blog later about my love for the new season..>sigh<

much love

It's alL about Politics and Tea Parties

History is alL about politics and tea parties :) I've beEn in a rather politcal frame of mind today

It alL started this morning when I was getTing ready for schoOl.. Gareth ClifF was on about the English elections today..he's rather obesSed if I do say so myself.. welL, here's my view. I don't want the Conservatives to win!! what the helL!! Conservatives?! since when is politics about being conservative! never! sometimes you neEd a bit of spice to get things hapPening in a country..if he's going to sit there being, oh I don't know..let's be conservative about it..how is anything going to hapPen!? it isn't. But the Brit elections are no longer about someone winNing..it's just about goOg old Gordy Brown losing. hahaha but he has beEn funNy! the Elvis impersonator...calLing that poOr lady bigoted...which is realLy rather ironic since I'd say Mr Brown's none the betTer.. the campaigns were goOd fun, now let's seE what's going to come of them.

Then in my English exam, other than a rather nice unseEn poem, the comprehension was on an article about the Terre'Blanche murder. Or atleast that's what you thought until you got to the fourth paragraph and the writer let loOse in Malema..then for Visual Lit. we had a rather biased cartoOn on Malema..though in the cartoOnist's defense..we're alL realLy a bit biased to Malema.. he's the guy who would rather kilL himself than comMitT suicide >rolls eyes< if ever he had an intelLigent thought..it died alone. shame :)

then I wrote history...the esSay topic was something along the lines of, the economic chaos and the political un-something was the cause of the expolsion in some month of 1789..French Revolution..so after stating alL of the lovely causes, namely social, intelLectual, economic, political and relgeous..i went on to say that while political and economic among with the rest were contributing factors hat no! the American War of Independence and famine and cold were responsible for the explosion..in retrospect..it might have beEn an actual explosion and not the figurative one interpreted it as... whoOps?

oh welL.. i enjoy politics..its reather fun, keEps the brain ticking and white colar crime flowing. hahaha theE joysS... honestly though, living in a country like this, everything is about politics. Even at schoOl! its sort of ridiculous realLy...i'm at the moment i'm not dulLy worRied... i can handle the politics thus far (: maybe i'lL become a politician..HAHAHAHAHAHA no. I don't have he heart for it, I'd get far toO frustrated.

I'm hungry..and i've got science and A.P maths tomorRow.. yay >rolls eyes<

Much love

Same dresS..difFerent ways

So I have this realLy cute dresS.. it's white lace-come-crochetTing. Its very textured and has to be worn with something under it..for theee sake of decency..so realLy, it depends... you could wear it over just your costume, if you were at the beach, otherwise its a touch..distasteful I would say.



In he first picture i'm wearing a long vest under the dresS and instead of cinching it at the waiste, i've worn a belt around my hips. this whole waiste cinching is getTing a bit over done..we should freshen it up..hayyy what about no belt at alL? sacrilLege? hahaha no :) and i wish I had a hat like that but I don't..i went and tried it on at AcCesSorise and had to take a pic.. i wore it with flat black gladiators..it was a bit short..but i liked it :)

In the second picture..along with a cheEsey smile :) i've teamed it with a blazer, rather fitTed and i've pushed up the sleEves..which i have left in Jhb to my utTer disSapointment... and there's a long(ish) shift i've got underneath that is plane except for the top bit which has detailing and the botTom which is layered bits of fabric..i like the slinky scarf..its completely sequinNed. I wore this for someone's party..family function kind of vibe.. i liked it!

I mentioned that I liked both my outfits...in similar ways..HmmM..what could that mean? who knows.. but thats just what I was wearing and generalLy we do put on clothes that we like :)

have to go study for exams tomorRow..The French Revolution :)

much love

Serisha (:

I have groupies!!

So I was initialLy very bleak* when I found that there was another blog calLed 'confesSions of an oreo'.. whoOo would have thought?! realLy now.. when I clicked 'check availability' it seEmed more of a formality then anything else..apParently I was thinking wrong!

But oh welL...now I have a blog entitled 'Hit by a Coconut'... if you don't get the joke..then perhaps you ought to ask the nearest Indian person you know about it...

So that's enough for now..I have to go and make my profile pretTy before my Avatar plait gets smacked into me again..

much love
Serisha :)
