SHINEON LOVES DOCS AND LEATHER SATCHELS!!!



I have always loved the chunky boot look with feminine dresses. It gives you an edgy look without detracting from your femininity.



You can rock florals and other pretty silks etc and still be cool not granny! ( And we all know how i love my granny florals.)



My brother in law saw me once and told me that "nana called and wants her curtains back!" SHAME ON HIM!



My sister reignited my passion for doc martens when she turned up in the shop the other day in one of her TWO DAUGHTERS merino dresses and some black standard leather docs. She looked so CUTE!!!


I fell in love with the outfit and have been googling away and getting excited about all of the different colours and flavours available!


This is me.. wearing a cute floral dress from Glassons.. i just brought it the other day for $49 i think.


How is Glassons at the moment as far as a colour palette goes???.. so nice!!.. Reds, mustards, gorgeous coffee coloured merinos.


Although I dont love the glassons quality.. i do love the occasional buying spree to stock up on wardrobe basics!


So back to the outfit.. Glassons dress.. glassons biege knit beanie $20!, american apparel leggings ( shineon) , Coolest red leather satchel $55 (shineon), Doc Martin boots ( too small for me! BOO! ) size 10 $149 ( shineon)


So both boots and bag are available now on shineon.co.nz or in store at TWO DAUGHTERS AND FRIENDS... But know that we have a constant supply of gorgeous leather satchels and will now be on the hunt for an array of vintage docs.. Make sure you come and see us soon!!
