ACCESSORIES IN PASTEL PALETTE


Morning, Everyone! Hope your week is going great so far! Just wanted to say a quick hello and share a few of my current obsessions in pastel palette. Like the amazing Tory Burch sunnies I can't seem to stop wearing because they go with absolutely everything in my closet or the gorgeous Jimmy Choo color-blocked pumps I virtually live in because they are not only beautiful but also one of the most comfortable pairs of heels I currently own. What about you guys, what are your favorite accessories at the moment?

DOMINO


Good morning and happy Monday, Everyone! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! 

This one is yet another one of those outfits comprised entirely of my all-time favorites. I got this Helmut Lang blazer about a year and half ago, and we've been inseparable since. Perfectly tailored and immaculately crafted, to me, this is an ultimate investment piece. Though I've worn it countless times, it looks just as great as it did on the day I got it. And longevity is definitely something that's important to me when it comes to clothing. The Emporio Armani bag is also about a year old, and I have to say that it is one of my favorite black bags ever! Simple and elegant, I am very partial to chain handles on cross-body bags, because I feel that chains help to elevate a look by adding that little bit of sparkle. And of course you know how I feel about sparkle:) The more, the merrier! Last but not least is the Bardot skirt. Aside from my obsession with black and white, I absolutely love the asymmetrical hemline of this skirt! It pairs with practically anything from blazers to oversized knits and works perfectly for day or night. In other words, it's another one of those versatile pieces I'am always raving about. 

How about you guys, what are your favorites at the moment?

WAKING UP IN VEGAS


Good morning, Everyone. Hope you're enjoying your weekend! Emil and I spent the last couple of days in Vegas, so I thought I would take this opportunity to share a few images of our adventures. Because we've been to Vegas a few times before, we've developed a bit of a routine and staying at Wynn is definitely part of it. Yet this time, we decided to take a gamble and try a different hotel. Since whenever we come to Vegas, Aria is always one of the places we love to explore, we decided to stay there. The hotel was absolutely fantastic! Loved, loved, loved our room, the spa, the restaurants and of course the pool! The latter, being the place where we spent most of our time, since it was so hot outside:) We ended up having a super relaxing time just lounging by the pool, dining and shopping. The shopping was probably a bit more relaxing for me than it was for Emil... but I can't really imagine a trip to Vegas without some serious retail therapy! What about you guys, what are your favorite things to do in Vegas? 

P.S. CLICK HERE to check out more of our Vegas adventures on Instagram.

NEW IN :: BARBARA BUI EMBELLISHED LEATHER SANDALS

Hey, Everyone! How is our week going so far? I wanted to take this opportunity to share pics of my new favorite pair of sandals ever! And they are flats! Honestly, since I pretty much wear high heels 24/7, I never thought that a pair of flats could make me weak at the knees, yet that's exactly what happened! I went to Intermix looking for a dress to wear in Vegas, and of course couldn't resist checking the shoe section while I was there. And that's where I found them, sitting on the shelf in all their chained and embellished glory. Oh, and once I put them on, that was petty much it! Game over, they simply had to come home with me:) I love, love, love absolutely everything about them, the chain links, the spikes and the crystal embellishments!!! I probably sound a little obsessed, but you know me, I get really excited about shoes:)

IN FULL BLOOM


Good morning, Everyone! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! As you can see my love affair with dresses is in full swing!:) The particular one I'm wearing in today's post, in an old favorite. I've had it for about a year now and wore it countless times on so many different occasions like engagement parties, Friday night dinners with Emil and even more casual occasions like brunch and shopping with my girls. Aside from the silhouette and the beautiful grey floral print, I guess, versatility is what I like about this dress the most. It can be easily dressed up with a pair of heels and a sparkly clutch or dressed down with cute flats and a structured bag. 

On this particular occasion, Emil and I had a late dinner with a few of our friends. Since the occasion was somewhat formal, I paired the dress with the cutest Jimmy Choo color-blocked heels, my Chanel boy bag (my go-to bag for pretty much anything), a pair of pink sunnies and my Ryan Storer ear cuff. Though I wanted to stick to a simple color scheme, I couldn't resist adding just a touch of pink because I love the combination of pink and grey and also because I think this very delicate shade of pink helps to soften this look and add a certain feminine touch.

SUMMER WHITES

Good morning, Everyone! Hope you're enjoying your weekend. As I have mentioned in my previous post, a good-fitting pair of white jeans is not always easy to find. So when I do, I pretty much tend to wear them non stop:) I love the way this particular pair fits! They are not too tight or too baggy, and have just the right amount of stretch to maintain the shape throughout the day. And of course you know how I feel about special details... And this pair certainly has enough of those special details to spare! Basically, if I had to imagine my perfect pair of white jeans, this would be it!:) So, I hope you won't get tired of seeing them because I have a feeling they are going to be making quite a few appearances on this blog!
