Baby it's cold outside!

When it's cold outside and your covered head to toe, wear funky print pants that peek out from underneath your warm coat and wear a pop of color on your lips!

Up Side Down - Down Side Up

The Denim Shirt has been around for a few seasons now, because it is so versatile. If you do not own one yet, go get yourself one now! It is like wearing a pair of jeans with a cute print top, but then your wearing a denim top and can wear anything; cute, printed, shorts or long skirts at the bottom.

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!

Spring Beauty Trend: Neon Lips

 This season hot pinks and corals are hot! Think fluorescent or even neon color. It makes me happy, a bright pout like that. Above beauty images from Spring/Summer2013 runway shows; (left to right)  Dries van Noted, Missoni and Giles 

Here's my secret :)  

Above; A bright coral color (YSL - Extreme Coral) with a neon pigment dabbed on top (MAC - Red Electric). The pigment will help the lipstick set, intensify the brightness and stays on (almost) all day! 

Below; Neon Pink Lipstick from the market (Janet Luxury Lipsticks find it on EBay "here")

Party Pants

I put on my party pants, since we were celebrating the album release of a friend last night. In a cozy little place called "G&T, a really, really nice place". We got a taste of the album by them playing some songs live.  It's a combination of latin and jazzy tunes, makes you think of Curaçao. You can find the album "here" on I-Tunes it is by Jean-Jacques Rojer, Le Trip.

Purple on Purple

Like I mentioned in my "Transition; Summer to Fall" post  last week, I'm finding ways to make my pastel purple pants work. I borrowed the long-sleeve, a deeper shade of purple from my boyfriend. Paired with my DIY faux fur vest (last years) and new round sunnies, to fall-atise it.

Lavender, Navy and Burgundy

I started the fall/winter DIYing again. Made this faux fur burgundy vest last week and it's been keeping me warm already. Lots of rain and wind, typical fall weather and a hat is perfect for this time of year (just make sure it doesn't blow off your head:)

Orange & Navy

I have been quite busy the last few weeks and so I try to multi task as much as I can. As goes for the outfits,this outfit went and had brunch with a friend and after, attended a meeting. Peplums in general are super versatile, easy to dress up or down and a guaranteed feminine look.

Outfit Post; Summer Leather

I have a confession to make... I have been lusting after (faux) leather! It is not only hot* in the summer, but one of falls biggest trends. I feel like summer is almost really over, the weather is getting a little breezier with a crisp fall-ish wind. I say come on over fall!

 *HOT adj., hot·ter, hot·test.

Most recent; new or fresh: a hot news item; the hot fashions for fall.
