Let’s be honest,
who doesn't love a good nosy through the
blog world every now and then? From those who drive you mad with their
ever-expanding designer collections, to the experts who are brimming with
beauty advice and then there’s the rest… Home décor, baking, brunching, DIY,
man repelling… you name it, the blogosphere’s got the lot. And so, that leads
me to the initiation of The Sunday Stalker… where every other Sunday I spill
which brilliant bloggers I’ve been stalking over the weekend.
I’m going to
start with my daily go-tos. These are the blogs that, quite simply, give me
great pleasure to read and I’m sure you’ll know them. If not, don’t say I
didn’t warn you… addiction awaits.
That means “outfitting oneself in a sartorially
offensive mode that may result in repelling members of the opposite sex”
according to Leandra Medine,
author of The Man Repeller, lady with an impeccable eye for a shoe, and funny girl indulging a seriously
admirable sense of humour.
Honestly, I cannot thank this centre-parted divulger
of fashion genius enough, for all the hours of entertainment I’ve enjoyed at
the hands of her witty, refreshing online dialogue. If you fancy knowing best
how to wear an overall, work a full white outfit, or any other known faux pas
with panache, head on over. You will
love this blog. It’s just not normal not to.
Wendy Nguyen and
her blog, Wendy’s Lookbook, were always going to be a recipe for success. Wendy
herself is a bundle of energy, hurtling her fashionable way around west coast America
in a blur of beautifully crafted and massively popular YouTube videos.
Fashionable
yet friendly, effortlessly chic, and always with awesome hair (which she shows you how to achieve), you’ll wish she
was your best friend.
She’s always got practical fashion advice (and cute jokes) at hand,
whether that be in colour co-ordinating, wearing a scarf in 100 ways (yep, that is
actually possible!) or just showing
you how to wear a leather jacket cleverly.
There’s just no
getting out of it – I seriously heart Wendy.
Whether I would
necessarily take up full-time DIY-ing is neither here nor there… the attraction
of A Pair & A Spare is the creative buzz that Geneva Vanderzeil conjures up
with every designer-collection-inspired but cheaper-than-H&M outfit / home
décor inspiration / transformed thrift store cast-off.
This Aussie
ex-pat has some serious lightbulbs going on… so many in fact that she’s
published her own book full of ‘em. For the sewing-machine fearing, her home
projects are simple, individual and look flipping lovely.
I particularly loved her recent DIY Breakfast Tower. Cuuuuute. And so breakfasty. Mmm.
And so concludes
this edition of The Sunday Stalker, I do hope you’ve enjoyed. Most likely
you’ll have added a few more blogs to your reading list, but most importantly,
I hope I’ve provided you some in-office/post-flight/can’t-be-assed-with-Monday
viewing inspiration.
