The Year of the Rooster

it all starts with this French rooster brooch...

 this nautical black and white striped French bateau style dress...

 this black trench coat, adorned with the French rooster brooch...

and these black peeptoe booties...

this burgundy red crossbody shoulder bag...

these retro cool cranberry red sunglasses...

this burgundy floppy hat...

 maybe this fisherman's hat, in keeping with the nautical theme...

 or this black sequin beret...

or even this red beret...

and I love the idea of these oxblood red and red holo glitter nails...

Cute Stuff: Chaps by Ralph Lauren ikat peasant top

Just loving this colour combination of oxblood, red, magenta in this cute ikat fabric peasant blouse from Chaps which is a Ralph Lauren fashion label...

I can see it with this patina darkened copper floral necklace...

It would look great with red and black orchid lipsticks...

 and these oxblood skinny jeans...

Stretchtech raisin pants

 these very shady cranberry red sunglasses...

deep red angular sunglasses

deep red mule sneakers

And this burgundy gladiator sandal teams well

And these pointy burgundy oxford shoes / oxfords...

As do these burgundy mules

maroon / burgundy and white sneakers

this burgundy crossbody shoulder bag...

or even these red jeans...

and this Wet n Wild Mocha-licious 914C lipstick...

Sweater Wish List

this Kalamata olive green longline duster cardigan 38 inches long...

another option but this one is shorter and I prefer the saturated colour above... 

Worn over this H&M olive plisse pleated dress

and this flirty pink fuzzy sweater...

whoahhh, that's pretty fuzzy!

Inspiration: NYE 2016 fireworks display on the Sydney Harbour Bridge

Oh! Gorgeous!

and Cher in Clueless!

and it would go with this burgundy pleated skirt...

this studded burgundy satchel...

a burgundy ankly boot for punk...

and these burgundy slingbacks for a bit of polish...

or these sexy burgundy ankle boots for some sass...

and these cranberry red sunglasses...

Chic: black plaid skirt

Scored this chic red, black and white plaid / tartan pencil skirt for a few dollars...

and perhaps this floral slinky top...

this floral tank for an Oktoberfest look

this red roses choker necklace...

 the skirt wouldn't be complete without these red roses socks...

and these red t-bar Maryjane shoes...

 but could also be teamed with red suede mules...

and these red suede ankle boots / booties...

this red tote shoulder bag...

these red angular sunglasses...

and even these retro cool cranberry red sunglasses...
