Through the wire....

Last weekend I enjoyed a rather hazey but fun night with 2 of my best friends, although I wish I could hyperthetically burn every photo I am in as I did not feel nice nor did I look it! I made the UNrash decision that it is ONLY black, black and more black on any nights out from now on, that is until my reluctant body decides its goin to play ball!

My first instinct was ok, so I'll feel and look slightly slimmer, but black...uggghh it can be so blah for a night out and coming into spring - is it a mistake-a to make-a?

I browsed through Vogue and saw the Chanel campaigns - tre' fetish! And thought, Sara, you must try harder to work this!
So I took a gander online, Vogue.co.uk, Style.com, Who,What,Wear, MyWardobe.com & finally Elle.co.uk! I should have known to go there first, the little gem that some people dismiss (*coughs Ellephant) as its not Vogue. And although it isn't, it is, in its own way a ridiculously good fashion bible. I've never dicriminated between the two, I'm a fashion lover not a fighter...
Anyway to cut it short(er?) I found inspiration in a place I didn't think I would, in the mind of Kanye West. Now don't get me wrong I knew of his talent, it could be seen a long time ago, but for some reason I just didnt think I would find his AW/12 line so inspiring to my new "black only" outfit planning!

I love when I get something between my teeth and my every thought is "ooohh, I could do that" and "oh my gosh!I CANNOT wait to get home and do that!!!!"...inspiration is like cocaine to me, or at least I think it would be? Don't do drugs kids...or adults for that matter, its terrible for your skin!

So the basis of the outfit is my ol' faithful chiffon top from Urban Outfitters and a make shift pencil skirt...Then the d-i-y-ing...a belt round the neck, stitch on a few buckles...I tried it on last night and if that isn't some dominatrix ish, I don't know what is!!ha

Then the piece de resitance'....my Office quite fetish platforms, worn with a fishnet sock ala' Rihanna, add a lace trim to get that Dolce and Gabbana look...ooohhh I hope it looks good, I'll keep you posted!


Enjoy...and thank you Mr.West for being the biggest inspiration I've had in a long time!
