Classic old tartan

 

 It's been a while (again), this is starting to become a habit, one that I do not like. Disappearing from the online world is not a necessity for me, it's rather happening because time is not enough for me to actually browse around the big old Internet. I barely have 6 hours to sleep, 20 minutes to eat, and about 5 seconds to breathe - an exaggeration, but you get the point. 

Adult life is not a pink dream. 

 Did you notice that tartan print is having a come back? Or maybe is it just me and it was in trend for many seasons and I just opened my eyes now. Anyway, I saw this skirt and my first thought was: "This actually does NOT look like a table cloth" - I usually get that idea in my head when I see tartan, checkered prints and such. 

I just loved the fabric and the colors and also the design - that front zipper really turns the skirt one step into the modern world. I did not mean to make that sound so dramatic though.

 Anyway, I am very late for work as it is, let me know your thoughts on this outfit, how would you wear a tartan print item?

Summer is just around the corner

If yesterday I was able to wear easy-breezy culottes and sandals, today I am in jeans and sport shoes, a very weird weather if you ask me.

Yet, I am constructing my new Summer wardrobe in my mind and can't wait to be able to wear my new tops and skirts! 

I hope you are all doing great wherever you are, I am mostly dividing my time between two jobs, I am in urgent need of some coffee right now actually and I am continuously idealizing a vacation that I hope will come soon!

How excited are you about Summer?

Not quite there yet

 

 I see everywhere around the world magnolias in bloom and sunshine everywhere, while here the cold decided to make a comeback and delay Spring. Hence the cardigan and ankle boots. I even refreshed my hair color to a bright red because I was so excited for sunnier days (but I also missed having this color for some time now). At least we have tulips to brighten our mood. 

I can't wait to see trees in bloom and walk around the riverside enjoying a peaceful warm day - that sounded like what an old lady would do, but sounds great to me right now! 

 Wishing you all a sunny weekend!

Embellished casual outfit

 

Yesterday we had such a warm sunny day, as you can clearly see from these pictures, and now it's all gloomy and depressing. So glad I am spending my time indoors today!

Speaking of yesterday, it was time to wear my pearl sweater - not that those beads are real pearls, but for the sake of feeling glamorous, we will call them pearls, ok? If you read my last article, you know by now that I worked on transforming this plain black sweater into something more sophisticated, it was something I wanted to do for a veeery long time, I only needed patience and time!

It's not that complicated, you just need to be devoted to the "cause", but I can assure you that after long hours, the result is more than satisfying! This way, you can turn any plain old T-shirt, sweater, or dress into a new, more glamorous, piece of clothing. 

I wanted to wear it with something casual and by that, I mean jeans! I haven't published photos with me wearing jeans in a ...very long time, so please, let me know what you think about this look!

Have a great week guys!

Chiffon and leather

 

 Long time no see! I've been busy travelling back to my hometown, visiting my relatives and dealing with the strange weather that made me feel so uninspired and quite lazy.

 Hopefully I will be back with new ideas, for now I am showing you the outfit I wore yesterday in the evening while walking around the empty streets. There was a time when mixing leather and light fabrics, such as chiffon or silk, was a "wow!" or a big "no-no" depending on each individual. 

For me, it was a big "yes!" and I wear this combo even now. I just love the contrast and you know, it's one of those contrasts that feels good and looks even better!

 What do you think?

Casual Summer

 

 Back from the Dream land and here we are with another typical casual Summer outfit, just a simple silky top, but with a gorgeous floral print paired with this skirt I have been wearing in a lot of my outfit posts; I am quite saturated with it, but the fact is that it goes perfectly with so many of my stuff, it's just hard to ignore it. I wish I had one in every color, just to diverse things a bit. 

Well now, I hope you are having a beautiful Sunday, the weather is the opposite of Summer right now, but I am hoping for the best - wow, me, an optimist, that's rare!

 Oh and stay tuned, I am preparing another cupcake post very soon!

Chasing sunsets

 

 I couldn't think of a better title to this post, because it's not really about clothes as much as it is about the scenery and the light. I am so crazy to catch the perfect light during a sunset, so we were lucky enough we had a lovely day and our timing was just perfect! The sun disappeared as soon as we finished with these photos and I am glad I was satisfied with the results! Otherwise it would've been a total waste of time - that happened before, I am pretentious, what can I say! 

 I hope you like the images (and the outfit for that matter) and I wish you a lovely weekend guys!

Casual vintage

I just realised two things: that it's already May and somehow I can't find a way to adjust to the idea yet, second, this outfit is similar to my previous one and that was, naturally, completely unintentional. I have a blazer, though not the same one, this one I am wearing here is longer and fancyer (if that is even a word) and I'm wearing again, navy pants, although these are jeans. Anyway, I wasn't even sure I wanted to take photos that day, but for the sake of my hair and makeup of which I was pretty proud that day, I said, let's give it a try.

 My birthday came and went and so did our late Easter, so I spent quiet times with family and friends. I filled my stomach with three different cakes and it's safe to say that I won't be craving for sugar for a while now.

   

 Hope you're having a great week, everyone!
