brands i adore: tba

Officially inauguring this 'brands i adore' section with t.b.a. (to be adored)... suitable, uh? As you can see I'm definitely finding in pixiemarket, if not a good place to shop (uh, little too expensive? oh yeah, and there's also the customs issue for us European fashion junkies), yes a truly great source for discovering new wide exciting brands. And hey, they have an excellent eye for fashion!

Check out this amazing studded leather skirt, sold out at their website but still available at asos (plus on sale!) -if only they had an XS left... *sigh* I can see this combined with everything: semi transparent blouses, lace tops, punk t-shirts... The shape of the skirt must create a powerful waist-hips-legs statement for sure, making any lucky girl look great.




And oh my, I think I want these! Perfect leather shorts, that nice shape again, love the fact that the buckle/belt strap seems to be suitable to be pull off in front or at the back, but still a little hesitant to spend 183€ (urban outfitters). Judge by yourself...



And their camel twins, these ones at asos for slightly less but still practically the same price...


So, sorry kids, done with leather! (you know this moment had to arrive). Now, time for tba's long sleeve mesh overlay pom-pom dresses. Marvelous details about the first (uo): that exquisite gold trims at round neckline and cuffs AND velvet bottom. Marvelous details about the second (tba + uo + asos): it does not only have cute contrat trims and pockets but also features cut-off and detachable sleeves. Fun.



Now, done with mesh... let's concentrate in velvet!

Look at this antique collared dress in beautiful blueish (uo) or redish (asos) tones:






I could keep going and going with sixties and Alice in Wonderland eat-mes...
















Well, now you see, tba has it all. I know I want it all!!
