I wore this outfit a few days ago to go for dinner with T. I kept it really simple, with very few accessories, and let black and white (and a bit of navy) do all the talking. Favorite details of this outfit: my transparent plastic clutch and my all-white manicure, both huge trends of this summer. The shoes are oldies but goodies, and they were the perfect addition to this minimalistic outfit. Do you agree?
As I told you on my last post, I bought a few things last Friday, and I had some delivered to me this Monday, so I had to make a post to show you my latest purchases. I didn’t want to make the usual post with plain photos of the things I bought, and since I had some free time on my hands a couple of days ago, I organized a garden party with elite guests: all of YOU! I really enjoyed the concept behind this photoshoot (despite the fact that I got bitten by a swarm of vicious mosquitos during it), and I hope you like it too. So, may I treat you to some fruits, or a delicious freshly baked piece of the first edition of Dan Brown’s “Inferno”? 🙂
Last Friday we went for some shopping with T. I needed a few things and I had to hit the stores. It was super-hot but the sun was playing games with the clouds again. We shot these photos early in the afternoon, just before shopping…Colorful jeans, and heels were the main focus on this outfit. I matched the bag with them, and kept the upper half neutral with a khaki/grey tee. A messy bun was the perfect addition to this outfit, and just what I needed for that hot day. Do you like it?
Lately, a lot of you have been asking to see me in a maxi dress. I’ve worn maxis on the blog before (here, here and here some examples) and I wore a few this summer too, but I didn’t have the chance to photograph any of these outfits. So when I wore this maxi dress the other day (which I hadn’t shown on the blog so far) I told T. that we HAD to take photos in it. When I first got this ombre dress 2 years ago, I loved it, but then the next year I didn’t wear it at all, and this year, I’m not even sure. Does it look good on me? Should I keep it? I’d love to hear your opinion.
Today, I’m super excited to announce to you that I just launched my shop. It’s something that was an idea in my head for over a year, and that I’ve meaning to do for months. It’s something that makes me super excited but at the same time a bit stressed too. It’s something new to me, and since I haven’t done it before, I have to learn how to do it. But let me tell you a few things about this new shop. All items on this store are taken from my closet. Most of them are slightly-worn and some of them never-worn, and have been sitting in my closet for years. I’m one of those people that get easily attached to anything, including inanimate objects, so I hesitated a lot before taking the decision to sell them. But since I haven’t worn them in years, there’s no reason for them to sit in my closet any longer. I worked really hard on this shop. I had to choose the items I didn’t need any more, make sure they’re in a good condition, photograph them (huge thanks to my model, my cousin A.!), wash them, iron then, create the shop, upload each item by hand, and then finally launch the shop. Also, huge thanks to T., who’s helped me with some technical stuff, but mostly because he’s been “holding my hand” during this really stressful but also exciting process. So check out the shop, browse through the categories (we have jeans, pants, tops/blouses, skirts, shorts, and bags), click on the items you like, to read their description, see more detailed photos, and add them to your cart, so they can find a new owner and be re-loved! Finally, huge thanks to all of you! Without your love and support, I probably wouldn’t have done this. So thank you very much!
