FOCUS ON: CHRISTMAS DINNER


I can't believe Christmas Eve is exactly one week away! I mean... December has started about three days ago, hasn't it? No? Well... Time goes by far too fast, that's for damn sure. Anyway, I think Christmas is a very special time which you spend with your family (or not, like me this year) celebrating. It's also a great possibility to dress nice. I love dressing up for this occasion! In my country the most important meal is in the evening of Christmas Eve so I've searched the most amazing thing in the world called the Internet and found what I could wear during this special meal.

I really love dresses and I think a chic and classic dress would be the first choice for me. My favourite is the Kitana Baroque Mesh Panel Velvet Skater Dress found on Missguided. Velvet fabric is so in this season and the baroque mesh panel makes this dress look very elegant. I think it's perfect for the occasion. As for dresses I also chose: Cameo Rose Dark Red Necklace Trim Skater Dress and Belle Heart Black Baroque Print Contrast Skater Dress.

If not a dress I would choose high waisted shorts (or a skort) as I'm really into them lately. The skort I chose and absolutely love is from Miss Selfridge and is called Black Ponte Skort. I also really like Miss Selfridge's Petites Black Jacquard Shorts.

During the research I came across two pieces that I'm totally in love with but not really sure what to pair them with. The first one is the Sequin Open Back Crop Top from Topshop. It would probably look best with a classic black high-waisted skirt, a skater or a pencil one. The other thing is a Rosie Cracked Foil Geometric Mini Skirt. I guess I'm really into gold this year!

These are my choices for my special Christmas Eve supper. What would you wear for yours?

OCTOBER WISHLIST


As we're in the middle of October I though it would be a great time to make an October Wishlist. As October always seems to be a little bit colder than previous months (obviously) I tend to spend even more time at home and be bored. I don't know about you but boredom makes me want things. I always end up going through online stores looking for that perfect dress, coat, top... So I guess this boredom created perfect conditions for me to make this wishlist!

The first thing I want this month is a PURPLE PAISLEY BUBBLE JUMPER. It's perfect in every way. The shape is totally in this autumn, the paisley print makes me want to wear it all the time and the fact that every jumper I own is in this exact shade of purple means something. Perfection is the only word that can be used to describe this jumper.

I also really love this RHIANNA 3/4 SLEEVE GEOMETRIC FIT & FLARE MINI DRESS. I've seen quite similarly printed shirt in Penneys lately and I totally fell in love with it. Those little geometric things make it look so pretty! And this is totally my favourite shape of a dress! I just realised I don't own any 3/4 sleeve dress... This has to change asap!

As for clothes I've also really been loving coats and jackets lately. I chose two for this post, both from New Look. The first one I spotted is a BLACK LEATHER-LOOK AZTEC EMBOSSED JACKET. I'm totally in love with the embossment and the shape of it. Uh-mazin'! The BURGUNDY LEATHER-LOOK SLEEVE WATERFALL JACKET is what I think (I can't decide!) I love the most in this wishlist! It's so perfect! And so easy to throw on during warmer days! The last clothing piece I really like are MID WASH PANEL DETAIL JEANS. They are quite high waisted, simple, super skinny and mid washed. Exactly how I like my jeans!

As for accessories I thought I'd need some warm mittens. I fell in love with these CABLE MITTENS at a first sight! I'm not really sure about the colour but ahh who cares! They're awesome. I know I mentioned this before but I am OBSESSED with bowler hats. And as I found another one I just had to put in on my October wishlist. The PORK PIE HAT (or is it called pork pie hat? I'm confused.) I found in Topshop is just the best I've seen yet. Great colour, great shape and awesomeness. It's got it all. There's also one bonus "accessory" I just had to put in here. Isn't the CUPCAKE MEMO NOTEPAD just the cutest thing ever?

The last section (I hope you made it that far.) is all about cosmetics. I've been obsessively wanting to try the SEVENTEEN PHWOARR PAINT. I heard it is amazing and I'm very determined to see if that's true. The RIMMEL KATE SPRING LIPSTICK in shade 16 is something I've been wanting for ages now. I haven't bought it earlier as some other lip products were instantly somehow popping into my make up collection and now I totally regret that as I can find "16" anywhere. Well... karma.

What has been on your wishlist this month?

FOCUS ON: SCALLOP


Another week, another obsession. This week, it is scallop. Scallop edges, scallop hems and scallop collars. I just love how girly and pretty it looks like. I especially like the scallop hems when it comes to shorts. It just makes them look three times more cute than what they would look like with a regular hem. 

Of course, I wouldn't be myself if I didn't look for prefect scallop pieces on asos.com. And I did find some amazing clothes. The first one is Boutique By Jaeger Shirt With Scalloped Edge Collar. It's so out of my price range (it costs £120.00) but I just had to include it here. The navy scallop collar looks perfect with the loose pink shirt. Next thing I chose from asos is the Max C Dress With Scallop Collar (unfortunately out of stock, sorry). It's such an amazing evening mini dress in a great bright colour. I'm totally in love with it. As for the shorts, I picked Shorts in Linen with Scallop Hem in colour Black. They're just classic black shorts which I think are perfect for the summer as the fabric they're made of is very loose and breathable. 

Speaking of shorts, I also chose Frankie Scalloped Hem Embellished Shorts which can be found on boohoo.com. I think they are my favourite thing in this post. The embellishment combined with the scallop hem creates a pure perfection. The last shorts in this post come from Miss Selfridge and are called High Waist Scallop Hem Shorts. I love the high-waisted shape and the colour of the denim but what I love the most is embroidery detail on the scallop hem. So so pretty. I also really love the Posey Floral Cropped Tee from lashes Of London. I really like crop tops even though I don't wear them that much, I like them more on other people as my body shape isn't the best for this shape of tops. But these scallop edges on sleeves really make me want to buy it!

What do you think of scallop collars, edges or hems?

FOCUS ON: CAMI TOPS


I know summer is nearly over but we still have couple of days (maybe even weeks), right? At least I hope so. I think cami tops have been a real blast this year and I am totally not surprised. They are perfect for the summer! They're weightless, a little baggy, look good with everything and on anyone.
I love how differentiated can cami tops be. Some of them are normal length, some are cropped, some are just black and white, some are neon, some are plain and some are printed, some are one layered, some are two layered, some are see through, some are not. Some of them even have a little peplum, mesh panel, frill or cute little buttons.
They look great with jeans shorts, three quarters length trousers, long trousers and even with skirts, even high-waisted skirts as such tops can easily be tucked into them. I just can't stop raving about how awesome they are but I think I'm gonna have to as I don't want to bore you to death.


What do you think of cami tops? Have you been rocking them this summer?

FOCUS ON: MINT

It is no secret that I love mint, always have and always will. I especially love it in the summer as it looks amazing with a tanned skin or mixed with other pastel colours. I think the time is just perfect for making this post! So here it it: the most mint post you've ever seen! 


What an endlessly-in-love-with-mint girl needs in her wardrobe are mint skinny jeans. I have very similar jeans to these presented above and I love wearing them in the summer with flip flops and oversized t-shirts. The ones I've chosen for this post are MINT GREEN SUPER SKINNY JEAN from Miss Selfridge. 

As it is all about summer a skirt can also be a good idea. The one I've chosen is from Top Shop and it's called  MINT BABY CORD SKATER SKIRT. What I love about this skirt (besides the colour) is the shape. As you might have noticed I can't help but put skater skirts into ever single post. Oh well...

I think my favourite mint thing ever is a nail polish. Mint is my second favourite colour to put on my nails, right after my forever favourite pale pink. Mint nail polish that I love the most is Inglot's 969. It will always have a special place in my heart. 

The next thing on the list is a BLOUSE WITH DOUBLE COLLAR IN STRIPE PRINT found on asos.com. It's perfect to tuck into a skirt or just wear with skinny jeans. I think what really got me in it is the double collar, doesn't it look cute? 

Speaking about cute.. just look at this little LACE MINT SOCK! Isn't it just the cutest thing ever? Of course you would need two of them to look decent but it is so amazing that if I had one, I would wear one. This one comes from Dorothy Perkins.

The next thing is something my sister owns and for now all I can do is to be jealous. The CANVAS AUTHENTIC by VANS are one of the pretties shoes I have ever seen. I own black Vans shoes and I chose them because I thought  they'd be more practical (and they probably are) but next time I'm gonna go nuts and buy them in mint! (don't tell my sister!)

The last thing is the AQUA LACE PEPLUM BUTTON THROUGH BLOUSE which I found on fashionunion.com. It comes in three colours but only mint looks good. I love the lace detail it has on the collar and placket. I also really love the shape of this blouse but most of all, of course, I love the fact that it's mint!

Do you like wearing mint clothes or painting your nails this colour?

LATELY I'VE BEEN LOVING: FESTIVAL FASHION



There's been a lot going on in the festival world lately, just as it is every summer and even though I don't really "do" festivals I'm totally in love with festival fashion. That's why I've spent a lot of time searching for clothes and accessories that I would choose for a summer festival. 

I think that jeans shorts are absolutely perfect for summer festivals. I chose Rose Print Black Denim Shorts from New Look and worn denim shorts from H&M. I also think that a nice floral playsuit can be a great substitution for a dress. The one I chose is Petites Floral Print playsuit from Miss Selfridge. I also picked one skirt. It's the Black and Red Floral Belted Skater Skirt I found in New Look. When it comes to crop tops I chose Truly Madly Deeply Daisy Cropped Tee from Urban Outfitters and Cream Aztec Print Hanky Hem Crop Top I found in New Look. When choosing bags I went for Across Body Bag With Cutout Detail found on asos.com, New Look's Pink and Orange Mini Woven Duffle Bag and found on Not On The High Street - Let The Good Times Roll' Tote Bag. What I thing might be even better idea than a normal bag is a rucksack. The one I chose is from River Island and it's called Pink Aztec Print Rucksack. As for boots I chose Steve Madden Brown Stud Aztec Print Cowboy Boots, also found in New Look and classic Hunter Boots.

What do you think about festival fashion? What would you choose to wear on a summer festival?
