50 Shades of Grey (minus 40)


So we’ve all read the 50 Shades Trilogy. (Oh shush! If you haven’t read it, you’ve secretly debated purchasing it for your Kindle.) These books have created quite the uproar! Book clubs everywhere shun the idea of reading it, yet discuss it before their reunions. Ha! Why not embrace a book that’s getting people to read? OK, so what if we've learned more than our share about whips? But seriously, am I the only one who wished E. L. James had given more detail about Anastasia’s dream-worthy wardrobe?

 
Here it is: 10 Shades of Grey, PartyMixTape style!

Paisley skull t-shirt by Alexander McQueen / Retro-inspired round sunglasses by Stella McCartney / Fern printed scarf by Stella McCartney / Current/Elliott The Boyfriend mid rise distressed stretch denim shorts / Ponte Rolled Sleeve Blazer from topshop / Michael Kors Adena Platform Pump in Slate Grey Suede / Rag & Bone Hamilton Boxy Tee / Halston Heritage grey pleated maxi skirt / Crystal Arrows necklace by Isabelle May / Burberry Timepieces: large check stamped bracelet watch

Did you read any good books recently?

    So happy we met! Love all your choices above. Some of my favourite book which you might consider if you haven't read them:

    Secret life of bees; White Tiger; Time traveller's wife; On beauty (by amazing Sadie Smith);

      I read Secret Life of Bees & Time Traveller's Wife: so good! My recent favourites were The Glass Castle & Seven Days in the Art World, and my all time fav is Self by Yann Martel! Looking forward to seeing you soon, E xo

    I love this collection of grey pieces - especially that beautiful pleated skirt!! I need it. Haha!

    I haven't read the Fifty Shades of Grey books yet, but look forward to catching up this summer once I've finished school!

      It’s not winning any literary awards, but it will definitely be a fun summer read! (P.S. My fav item is the leaopard shorts!) E.
