CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN – Barbaria Zeppa 120 Floral Satin Wedge Platforms
Loving these colourful retro wedges! The floral print, with its ‘70s vibe, calls for a relaxed outfit. Wear with a dark coloured, floaty dress, or add more florals to the ensemble for a fun and casual weekend look.

A beach holiday needs a perfect pair of sunglasses. I picked these ones from Tom Ford because I love the neutral colour and the contemporary, yet vintage feel.
