green monster.



jacket+ jeans. zara.

a moto-jacket allows me to re leash the little rebel in me.
like Marlon brando in "the wild one" or the ever conspicuous james dean 

their snug fit allows for a more tailored look.
which is its key feature.
 pair with a frock to toughen up or trousers for a menswear look. 
throw over absolutely anything night or day.
which i do!

to me they embody a classic style which is truly eternal.

i have or probably never will own a motorcycle.
but this timeless piece will forever hold a place in my cozy closet.

  5. These photos are absolutely beautiful!!! I love how your jacket kind of matches your eyes and how effortless your style truly is.

    anonymous clearly tried way too hard to be mean but ends up sounding like a bad high school stereotype sadly.

  7. Aah I've been looking for a great green leather jacket for a while now, but finding a jacket that is right for you is so hard! I only have 1 leather jacket (brown) and it took me over a year to find it! But after seeing your gorgeous green one, I feel I need to look harder, I REALLY really need one now haha ^-^
    You look great Lisa, as always =)

  13. Whoops!

    Hey L,

    Remember what I said about spineless anonymi? Well, I've had one sparring match this week so I'll leave it at that.

    When I grow up and get legs like yours, I'll be parading them all over town, and if anything, you're really not trying hard enough - that's a beautiful watch you're scratching up with that bracelet ;)
    My friend scolds me for doing that! x

  22. green monster or green goddess ?
    i'm thinking more the latter .




    zara has totally been stepping up their game lately, when visiting the store a few weeks ago i couldn't help but fall for quite a few different pieces ! i may be going again on sunday so i perhaps i will purchase a few goodies while i'm there . the prices aren't too shabby either, which is good for a girl on a budget like moi .

  30. Love the jacket, Zara has some amazing pieces atm!

    Yeh I can't wait to go to Cape Town, so many places I want to see. Looks like there are millions of awesome little towns to go to..
    I'm there mainly to do some aid work, bit of teaching and builidng in some of the poorer areas, but I'll most definitely be getting a lot of travelling done too, and certainly some very good nights out, maybe some shopping thrown in too....!
    The night-life good? Is it ok to go out with just a few girls at night!?
    Yeh I did some research on Kalk Bay, and it looked awesome so glad to hear its a cool place!
