Zara people

I am currently in the Zara people section of Zara's website. I discovered this a couple of months back, and I have to say that I really liked the idea behind it. It isa new and pretty innovative way for a brand to showcase their collection by real girls without being involved or having any influence on these people what so ever, which is something that I truly like about the concept. The principle is simple, select two items from the current Zara collection, wear them, snap yourself in them and be part of Zara people. I actually go there for ideas of what to wear and what could interest me in the shop. I personally am often influenced bu the way clothes look on the mannequins in the shop, or on billboards, but let's face it I am not a skinny, 1.80m girl, so half the time what looks good on them just doesn't work for me.

The outfit post for this can be found here. Happy Friday to everyone, I for one am very much looking forward to the weekend!

The black leather jacket

//WEARING// Zara jacket and trousers (old) Zara hells and jumper (F/W 2011) Philippe Audibert silver cuff Mono red bracelet (from Colette) Chanel purse/wallet

I have noticed that lately I have, unconsciously, started to be more drawn to more classic and tailored looks. I start work in less than three weeks and I really don't want to be going to work everyday in a boring suit or all in black. So hopefully, I will find some more colourful combination by then.

And now for the important stuff, the winner of the big giveaway, the lucky person who has won $200 to spend at Shopbop is ... (drum roll please) @Parmie Thank you all for your participation, but also a warm thank you for making the launch of The FashionCloud Weekly a huge success. Keep an eye out for the next one, as there will be more things to win, new DIYs and more promo codes to grab. If you haven't signed up yet, please feel free to do so HERE.

Where to get.it

One Saturday afternoon last month in Paris the blogger  Slanelle came around to catch up and bit and to do a small video for the website Where to get it. If you haven't heard of the site yet, there is no time like the present to discover it. It's a community based platform where you can share pictures of items or outfit that you really like and would like to re-create of find the same items. The active members of Where to get it will help you do just that by browsing the online shops or simple by using their extensive fashion knowledge. This can be done from Twitter with the hashtag  #W2G, or via their Facebook page ... This is the new modern way of asking someone one the street "where did you get that from?". (to watch the video simply click on either of the two pictures above).

I am thinking of the next trend post, do you have any suggestions or any trend you would like to see?
