Happy Weekend

 Happy Friday! 

I have discovered my new weekend uniform, I can't help but to go back to the über comfy pants.

Although the leopard, they are versatile, wear it with a chambray shirt, en embellished tee, lace, stripes everything goes!

Have a great weekend!

Leopard & Lace

Pairing leopard and lace seams like pairing two neutrals together!

Pull out your wild side with a leopard print and balance it with a sweet touch of lace.

Casual Wildness

I have been diving into my boyfriends closet lately, for those plain boyfriend tees. The perfect touch of casualness to pants with heels.

Wild Tropicana

I had made this skirt months ago, before I even knew I was going to Hawaii. I had been waiting for the perfect occasion to wear it and finally it had arrived! Hawaii is filled with the plumeria flowers, they are the ones that you wear in your hair, left side if your taken and right side if your single (what a tradition, right, talking about labeling...). I just like it because it looks so feminine.

Lace and Gingham

Happy Tuesday!

Hope you hd a good easter weekend. For easter brunch I paired gingham and lace, a good romance between spring and easter, if only it where true on the spring part...

However, slowly but surely temperatures are rising, the sun is out more often and the little spring flowers start to bloom!

The New Classics

Sometimes, especially in the weekends, It's nice to just throw on a pair of good jeans and a simple white button down. A new take on a white button-down is my peplum version (however, a boyfriends, brothers or dads shirt works just as good). Wear it the button-down all buttoned up, with a print cover-up like a leopard coat and your ready to go.

Happy Sunday...

Mixing patterns & Pastels

 When I travel I usually end up taking too little clothes, but it makes it more fun and creative. When packing just make sure everything sort of fits together (same tone of color, and a little variety with textures). 

That is how this outfit came to exist in London. 

Me; "Day 3. hmmm what have I not worn yet....*rumble, rumble in the suitcase* Tada! Outfit"

And there is no doubt that I absolutely love clashing prints.

Winer Blues

I have a love hate relationship with winter. Being able to take a walk in the snowy white park makes me love it! but then once that snow becomes icy and slippery and a gush of cold wind, you know... it's not so pleasant. However this day I was enjoying it and like in my previous post, adding some pops of pastel in to my wardrobe. 

Oh and btw, Happy Valentines Day

Floral and Leopard

As always I try to come up with new ways to wear staples I have hanging in my closet already. I paired floral shorts with leopard print top and added pops of gold and neons to tie it all up. Just make sure your contrasting prints are in the same tones and colors or textures and fabrics.
