SoulCal&Co – Wisemans Ferry Adventure !

Posted on June 10, 2013 by rratavosi

A few months back I was absolutely itching to get away from anything urban !

I wanted to draw myself away from the City life and be completely isolated in a very rural, very quiet place.

So where did we decide to go This time ?

My boyfriend and I decided to head out to Wisemans !

A wrong turn here and there, loss of navigation and reception, the “SOS only” sign popping on your screen Could only mean one thing right ? FREAK-THE-HELLL-OUT-YOU-ARE-LOST in somewhere that APPLE-CAN’T-EVEN-FIND-YOU !!! hahaha… !!!!

Ten minutes of driving.. only GREEN, GREEN, FENCE, GREEN, OLD CEMETERY, MORE GREEN ! We finally get to a park/grounds entrance where dozens of tents and caravans were set-up !

Where the hell were we !? We were right in the middle of none other than the St.Albans Folk Festival !

We didn’t really get much involved with the festival, we were too determined to get away from crowds and loud noises.

So we walked through the old park and found a path leading to a very secret, very isolated location.

Completely at peace.

Such a beautiful place to be.

Fresh air, hardly any noise and a brilliant view.

NOW I could finally photograph my boho ensemble !

The funny thing was I blended in perfectly with the folk Festival.

Completely coincidental !

Brand of the day – SoulCal&Co !

If you haven’t heard of Soul Cal they are a UK lifestyle fashion brand designed for the very laid back male and female with California in their Soul.

It’s inspired by the carefree California way of life as well as keeping the sun,sea and surf at mind.

Their pieces reflect Californian culture through the use of their retro prints, and washed out colours, reminiscent of 70’s album covers and posters.

The piece I got my hands on has a very beautiful paisley print on it with colours of red, navy and deep turquoise blue.

As you can see in the image I’ve style it with the basic black and brown palette choice that works quite well with the boho-style vibe.

I picked a braided “vintage look” belt to tie at the waist. Something to style it up with I guess.

That particular belt came with one of my other dresses but in general, thin braided belts are quite easy to come across and are also quite cheap.

You can get a cheap one like the one below for $15 from Target if you get super desperate and don’t find anything.

The boots I’ve chosen have a very western, boho vibe.

They have tassels on them and look something like this.

However, Any scrunched ankle high/mid high boot with the western stitch detail and cut would be suitable.

It was quite a cold day so I was wearing leggings with this dress and also a Cardi.

I chose this cardigan in particular because it was very beachy with it’s loose knit open weave design.

They are the kinds of things I look at for detail when styling up garments for a particular subculture/trend.

If this paisley print tickled your fancy, you can take a look at Soul Cal’s range of clothing for men and women available at USC – simply Click here.

Goodmorning it’s Boho Beach Time !

Posted on April 22, 2013 by rratavosi

Woke up this morning to the pitter-patter sound of the rain ! I Chucked on my converse jumper, my amazing pair of Ponte leggings, laced up my new joggers and out the door I went.

Driving to work with the windows up, windscreen wipers on, I thought, “Shit ! another 6 more months of this – I miss spring/summer already !” I will admit that I do in fact love all the layers, and warm wintery clothes but the hot summer sun or that perfect spring breeze wins my heart far more than any woollen scarf or trench ever will !… So to brighten up our day – blog wise – a summery post for all my northern hemisphere readers ! Enjoy it while you can !

BoHo BeAcH TiMe WitH FrEe PeOpLe !

Everyone has a certain style when dressing up, especially when we hit the beach !

Today’s favourite however is Boho Beach with the lovely Free People collection!

Free People has got you covered this season with all the right garments to help you go from brekky to beach, beach to lunch, and lunch to date.

Soft flowy garments, ombre’d crochet pieces, fringed poncho’s, embroidered bags and tribal bracelets.

Trend | Lil Miss NErdette

Posted on February 27, 2013 by rratavosi

Hey there Lil Miss Nerdette ! Is this your style ?

This geeky Chic style has hit the streets and it’s been a while now, yes everyone is into expressing their inner geek ! haha

lil miss enrdette

So when I say Nerd, What image pops into your head ?

A geeky, unpopular loser buried in a book in a library ?

Someone a bit like Ugly Betty?

This stereotypical image probably came from those negative connotations growing up right ?!

Well believe it or not, it’s actually cooler to be intelligent.

This style is best brought to life with mismatched colour combinations, “off-kilter silhouettes” with retro prints, and a touch of 60’s nostalgia.

I absolutely Love this style – It’s preppy yet quirky – contradiction much ! Totally my style, it’s two faced !

So Lets have a look at our Geeky chic checklist !

collar

Crisp looks for shirts are always best – Even go a little further and get a different collar style like a peter pan collar ! If you are into the chic aspect, you can always add a stunning necklace or a thin scarf to dress it up and flaunt your Collar !

Nothing Shouts Geek more than a buttoned up plain, sharp Shirt !

white_tumblr

bambi_in_bowtie_tumblr

Main accessories that come with this look are Glasses, sunglasses, reading glasses either one will do – make them big, over-sized, patterned frames, a vintage style perhaps –

nerdy_tumblr

Lauren Conrad rocks it here with her tucked in top and her high-waist shorts !

1024x6751

Belted looks add a nostalgic touch, especially when they are accentuating a womens waist !

Try your nearest thrift store, antique shop, or Op Shop for worn out, vintage looking belts – something leather with a bit of age

22113

If you like a more crisper, on trend – modern chic geek look, you can also wear denim – just add a belt shirt_with_studs_in_the_collar_com

Don’t be afraid, bring out nanna’s Christmas gift or even her hand knitted sweater !

She’s on Trend !

stockholm_street_style_carolinesmode

socks

Close the look with some socks – ultra geeky !

adad

You can also mix it up with stockings and shorts.

Overall Style look –

shirt_shorts_sweater_ee_glas_lookbook

oh and one more thing – the hair … Untamed, Bad hair day kind of look. Messy ponytails, or fishtails and braids that are falling apart

hauir

Our Style icon | Alexa Chung

Alexa Chung’s style is very much like this – over-sized sweaters, a cute untamed bob, collared shirts, tucked in high-waist looks…

The Cinema Society & Shiseido With Grey Goose Host A Screening Of "Virginia" - Arrivals alexa_chung_tumblr alexa_chung_tumblr2

That pretty much sums it up -convinced ? so let your inner Nerdette shine !

New Obsession | Emily VanCamp

Posted on February 24, 2013 by rratavosi

I rarely ever have time for television , Did someone’s jaw just drop ? ha !

I’m more a buy-the-series-on-DVD-and-watch-it-religiously-whenever-I-have-some-spare-time kind of person BUT what I have been watching is ABC’s AMAZING drama REVENGE !

I will admit I have been cheating though, by watching it ahead online because I’m just so obsessed !! *Intense Withdrawal Symptoms*

emilyvc03

Putting all the drama and revenge aside, I actually think Emily VanCamp is quite a Beautiful person.

I love her outfits within the show, she’s got natural beauty and a great flawless body to show off with all those backless dresses !

emilyvc

Favourite picture so far !

So gorgeous ! emilyvc01

I found a great behind the scenes video of her Women’s Health shoot, and it’s inspired me !
Have a little watch and see what you think.

Blog Contributors | Get on Trend for 2013

Posted on February 23, 2013 by rratavosi

Hello my lovely subscribers !

I know the weather today is crap, depressing and maybe a little scary for some but well let’s try and look at the positives’ today – At least you can spend some time lounging around the house and reading my blog right ! hahaha

Every now and then I allow contributor posts on my blog, The one I have for you today has been written by Catherine Lavinia, a freelancer in advertising and marketing. So before I leave you to this post wherever you are in the world today, I hope you’re having a safe yet fun Saturday !

xxxx Much Love, Rhaya

Get on-trend for 2013 !

While high fashion may do well on the start of year catwalks, predicting which will be the key looks to filter down to the high street can be difficult. Surprisingly, popular looks from recent seasons include the Peplum, which exploded onto the high street in 2011 and has not lost any momentum as we passed through 2012. In terms of shoes, creepers and the more elegant creeper style platforms have been massive on the streets as fashion continues to reclaim the sixties via the nineties.

oo la la ! We LOVE peplum !

So what’s going to be big this year?

Let’s find out what the key predictions are for 2013:

Paisley might be the only print to be seen in for 2013. Try a paisley-print cotton sundress for when the weather warms up, or a slick shirt teamed with mannish trousers to work two trends at once.

Don’t panic: if paisley isn’t your thing, you can choose between geometric or floral prints to stay on trend. Fashion icons should be Twiggy and Jean Shrimpton (as well as the women of Mad Men) and look out for citrus colour prints for the ultimate homage to sixties fashion.

Floor-length gowns are going to be big this year and creating an elegant silhouette is going to be key. This season’s dresses have to go all the way down to the ground. Look out for kimono-style gowns for the ultimate in opulence.

Olsen Love Inspired saved this photograph to their profile. More than 29 StyleSaints retore this photograph. White kimono deep v neck dress, gold cuff, mary-kate olsen .
Oh my Goth! Goth continues to be influential this year but don’t let it get you down. Colours are black and white, obviously, and choose leather to maximise the 50 Shades of Grey influence.

Laura Beltran Rubio saved this image to their profile.
Let’s go on a space odyssey as all things futuristic and sci-fi enter our collective fashion consciousness. Think metallic, still trending from 2012,Ziggy Stardust, glitter, and try some silver shades for you footwear.

Well I hope that covered it for you all and has inspired more wardrobe fun and style for ‘13

xo Catherine Lavinia !

Retro Safari Time with Alice + Olivia – and YES that only means one thing !!

Leopard is STILL HERE and so is one of my favourite clothing colours, KHAKI !!!

This collection reminds me alot of the Indiana Jones movies purely because of the colours and the very ranger like silhouettes and styling – I guess it’s not called Retro Safari for no reason right !

Now while we are on the topic of Alice + Olivia, I heard that they’ve Teamed up with British Leg wear Specialist “Pretty Polly” for a new Leg wear range called “Alice + Olivia by Pretty Polly”.

This is such exicting news as it will be launching very soon, said to be mid February during Stacey Bendet’s presentation of Alice + Olivia at New York Fashion week.

I think this will be a great addition to their already fantastic collections as it will have basic and fashion tights as well as a novelty line !

Woo hoo – Well I’ll keep you guys posted – in the mean time Check out the Alice + Olivia Website by clicking here.

Paper Crown | LC.

Posted on February 1, 2013 by rratavosi

Sweet. Smart. Stylish.

Three words that I’d use to describe former Hills star Lauren Conrad.
(No I’ve never met her – but Yes I’d absolutely love to!)

Now if you’ve been following this blog you’ll know I absolutely love “The Hills” especially my two favourites – Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port.
Watching their lives unfold and blossom on television, without gettting carried away (cough-Heidi-Cough), has inspired me, it’s made me fall in love with their determination, and their on-screen personality, as well as being able to relate to their busy fashion-focused lives. I believe that Lauren and Whitney, Today, are two great examples of educated talented, growing women who are living their dreams and are working hard at them. Everytime I’m feeling a little uninspired or unfocused about fashion I think of them and what they’ve both achievedd in such little amount of time and it “rejuvinates” me haha !

so I’ll get to the point now – What has caught my eye recently was the sneak peak preview of Lauren’s Spring 2013 Collection for Kohl’s.

The below images are of Lauren in a few pieces from that very own Collection as she beautifully shows them off for us !

W70JHuAfsw1RCKTSrIfGP0yB_jpeg_600x0_R arRnV5c1LMZxygP2Kl0STQv4_jpeg_600x0_R 130201_PS_LC_FEBMAR

I’m totally loving all the polka dots and the very vintage vibe of the shoot.

130201_PS_LC_FEBMAR SIeMBxFIAx9GPsnJP0sKxRbp_jpeg_600x0_R GRAWWotmbA196HerBXOYcbeH_jpeg_600x0_R

The Colour palette is also a perfect way to kick start that Spring wardrobe and to add some nice fresh pieces to the autumn/winter wardrobe you’d have. ( Unfortunately we’re heading out of Summer here with our last month of Summer – Sighs… I’m going to miss these scorching hot summer days…until they come by again)

Fresh forest greens and vibrant pinks have been used on some really great statement pieces. They’ll liven up any outfit.

Hope you loved her collection as much I did !

MEOWY XMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL <3, Fashion show Talk, Christmas Dinners, and a Little RE-decorating !

Posted on December 31, 2012 by rratavosi

Hello Lovely people !!

Just want to start by saying

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE A HAPPY NEW YEAR !!

I wish you all a safe and joyous New Year and I hope it’s an unforgettable day for all of you ❤ x x x x x

P.s.. in case you can’t see it. It says MEOWY CHRISTMAS !!! I died when i saw it… clearly, it was such an impulse… yet necessary buy ! MEOW

Now !… Onto where the hell I’ve been and What I’ve been doing !? (BESIDES the minor internet problems I’ve been having that have delayed my posts !)

This year has been one hectic year for me guys, I mean it’s always hectic but a certain set of events have absolutely topped it this year ( bet I’ll say this again next year though ha !)

As you all know I finished college… So I am officially a Designer and a stylist – Hoorah ! ( Yes I have an ACTUAL degree for the NATURAL talent I’ve always had…meow)

In Early December we had our final graduate show. If I was to tell you all, that the day went smoothly and that it was all so great and I felt so relieved afterwards… I’d be lying… except for the part that I felt relieved ha !

If you’ve been reading my blog, you’ll know that I have been searching for that final sign of “relief” after college, some security to make me feel it’s all come to an end and that there is no longer any stress of that particular kind following me around in the form of a shadow or however the saying goes. As disorganised and crazy backstage and the lead up actually was, the moment where I had all my models dressed up, in my garments, the moment that I was exactly a minute away from walking out with them onto the catwalk to show off my range I felt that stress, that “whatever”, be lifted away and carried into the lights of the runway. My anxiety and nauseousness all gone. I don’t think I’ve ever felt more accomplished and happy in my life.

Who was there ? Who cares !

Did I slouch when I walked? who cares…

Did I show off my range and enjoy it…? Yes I sure did, I loved it !

I must say though as nervous and haphazard it all was on the day before the event actually started (Just like to add that we had no rehearsal or run through…for the record) I Liked being showcased like that. Often designers, well graduate designers don’t get to showcase themselves this well and I think it was a great way for everyone to see who we were, not just a projected name in some random sans serif font.

Well that was that.. and of course some backstage shots just for you guys !

The hair of course was amazing ! Loved the whole detached braid style they had going on !

The makeup was nice, a very heavy smoky black look. Pretty classic runway !

Dalian and I ! Taking random shots and anxiously waiting for the show to start ! EEKK !

Everyone’s style sheets – The beautiful Jess ( Platform models) who wore my Black laced up Embroidered Dress on the night !

Backstage again and again, everyone is hanging around waiting for the show to start.

The Gorgeous Manon from Platform Models at the fittings ❤ Wearing my ombre, vintage tea stained jumpsuit and embroidered bodysuit ! That’s sneak peak enough !

My AMAZING MACHINIST !!!! who helped me through it all…. She is a saviour !! and… I’m wearing Ladakh ❤ just the way i Like it !!

Following this there was of course a scrumptious Christmas dinner with the future in laws !

YUMMMMM !

Christmas all decked out with food and ornaments as well as gifts from Santa for everyone !

Too cute !

Clearly we were all Nice not naughty this year !

now moving on from all the food… let’s talk about DIETS..

Amongst all of this and my crazy hours at Target I happened to stroll over to the book department and there I found THE DUKAN COOKBOOK…

Minutes later I was convinced I was rather fat… too fat…Need-to-go-on-a-diet fat and without any hesitation happily talked my sister-in-law into it and yes.. we were DUKANING…

Don’t worry, we weren’t crazy enough to do it right away so we decided to be reasonable and start the first phase in the gap between Christmas and New Years.

Let me first start by saying.. I’m put off food… It’s far too repetitive…I’m sick of the same oaty dense textures in my mouth and as great as our attempt was we only lasted 3 days in the first phase ! HAHAHA

On top of that we now realise we aren’t that big, we have great womanly curves which flat girls would die for.. and the five kilo’s we wanted to so desperately CUT OFF will have to be done with our own way of exercising and eating right.

AND I have secretly skipped to the third phase… ! so shhhhhh !

HOWEVER, I do still believe that this diet is a great diet and that people who are much bigger than us will actually lose a lot of weight if they can stick to it and make it through to the final phase.. so If by any chance any of you are DUKANING… Let me know how you are going !

Oh and I must say I did actually enjoy cooking a variety of things in the attack phase.

preparing Chicken Broth soup – yummy !

It was actually so nice to discover some warm liquids to eat during attack phase.

THE DUKAN COOKBOOK was also a great book, so if you are in need of any recipes or some guidance on what you are supposed to be eating and how to make delicious edible things with what you are given, seriously check it out !

hmm what else has there been.. OH YEAH I have been super busy with my sewing and fabric sourcing as usual, and cannot wait when it’s all launched ( slow process, as I’m such a busy little bird but hang in there).

The final thing that’s been keeping me busy is my room ! Ever since my emotional rollercoaster and deep soul searching I have decided that as every door shuts and every new door is opened one must REDECORATE, REPAINT AND REORGANISE their life, and emotions starting with their room.

So I have been on the search for new furniture, wall paints (THE RIGHT COLOUR- the RIGHT SHADE !), bed covers all sorts of stuff AND have also come up with a great D.I.Y project for anyone who wants to SCHNAZZ things up a bit with their decor.

My old bedroom had light purple walls, a certain calmness to it with a whole wall of old and new polaroids/photographs stuck side by side NO GAPS of the greatest memories EVA, pretty nostalgic if you ask me. My wardrobe doors had some of fashions greatest ad campaigns posted up and shelves of every VOGUE I’ve ever received. Not a bad set up at all, but I think it’s time for a change, New light, New colour scheme and first new feature… ! Can’t Wait until it’s complete !

oh so empty ! Thankyou dearest boyfriend for helping me empty the never-ending contents of the room ❤

Can you guess what colours I’ve picked ?!

Click to go to the next post for a little D.I.Y !

xxxx MUCH LOVE, YOURS TRULY

December is here … and so am I !

Posted on December 3, 2012 by rratavosi

Hello everyone !!!!

I know I’ve been a little absent lately BUT to kick off this lovely festive month I’ve decided to share one of my all-time FAVOURITE christmas songs ! Oh and not only does it make me all happy and bubbly BUT it reminds me of The O.C. ( Love at first sight) I recently re-watched all the episodes ( 5th time I’ve done that because I love it so much.. yes people 5 times over and every single episode ! don’t judge me…meow !) and fell in love with all the characters and drama all over again…*sigh* !

Well I’ll stop writing now and let you enjoy this song as much as I always do ! Will be keeping you all informed and blogged up soon guys !
