Gossip Girl Looks: Trending Purple and Turquoise

Lately, I haven't been able to stop thinking about turquoise accessories... And I never would would have thought it would look good with a purple dress!!! I remember seeing Serena van der Woodsen in  the Gossip Girl series and thinking that her turquoise accessories really make the purple of her dresses *pop*...

Blake Lively recently stepped out on the red carpet at this year's National Board of Review's Awards Gala wearing a gorgeous purple Marchesa dress paired with stunning turquoise earrings and bracelet...

This look, however, is nothing new to Hollywood...

My "ASOS-fix"!

I've been a bit depressed about having to go into work so soon after the big day... So naturally, my mind starts to wander at the office and my fingers starts tapping on the keyboard and before I know it, I'm no longer looking at my (gazillion) emails and.... eh, how'd I get to www.asos.com :D Best part is, the SALE is on! Woot woot!

Some of my recent purchases...

I actually wanted this in Mustard but I had to settle for this  'Rabbit Grey' cause it was sold out. I thought this dress would be great to transition from work to after-work drinks.

I LURVE this skirt, especially the colour (Arabian Spice)!

Again, they ran out of the Nude colour that I wanted so I'll just have to work this dress with bold accessories.
p/s - I'm so into midi skirts/dresses right now.

So I'm now waiting as patiently as possible for my new goodies to arrive! Finally! New clothes to wear to work... exciting stuff!
