Recreate the Look; Dsquared Resort2014 Look

Completely overwhelmed by my own upcoming vacation, I am obsessing over Dsquared Resort Collection 2014! Unfortunately my vacation destination most likely will not allow me to wear summer clothes just yet, however my soon planned trip back to my home-counrty Curaçao will allow summer clothes all year round!

Does your destination allow you to dress summery like this? Pick one of the runway's hottest trends and copy it by making it your own look!

Topped off with a hat, check!

Candy Pink Pantalones

Even though it's still freezing from time to time, and mid-winter, my minds already thinking warmer thoughts and bright colors. I could not help myself with these candy pink pants, I just had to have them!

Thank goodness for sales! and before we know it there will be swimwear in stores... for now we are left with layering our favorite shirts....

Cacti

I can't get over my Cacti print shirt! It's my new favorite thing! I had been searching for a black and white polka dot shirt, instead I found this cactus dotted shirt, it sort of had the polka dot feel but then even quirkier! 

I have also been obsessing over this neon pink lipstick (I'll share my secret soon;)

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...

2-ways to up-do a white shirt

I love, love, love "the button down" it is such a versatile piece and everybody should have one. May it be any color or just plain white. Check your boyfriend, dad or brothers closet and you must find one... if not get a great sheer button-down (Zara and Mango have great ones this season).

What I did to simply style it up is;

1. Get 1 meter of (velvet) ribbon or lace (at any fabric or craft store)

2. Simply tie it either in a bow (shirt buttoned all the way up)

3. Or go for a more laid back vibe with one button undone and a simple "tie" style.

What do you think?
