I know this blog is supposed to be about fashion and office wear but what happens when the world is disrupt and when fashion seems like an insignificant and futile pastime? The past couple of days and the events in Paris qualify for life to enter in such a state.

I've had them for three years and always receives a lot of compliments and praise, especially from my male colleagues.
