As you know from my social networks, I am currently traveling across Europe, and as part of this amazing trip I spent last week in Cannes. I had so much fun there, going to the beach, eating unlimited seafood and croissants and catching up with my friends. My summer fashion consisted of very light items with thin materials due to hot weather in Europe and trying to minimize my luggage size. Here is a photo diary of my looks and places to visit via my Instagram @byDianaMarks. Enjoy :)

Preppy in my new Mercedes
If you follow me on my socials, you might already know that I got a new car a few days ago and I finally wanted to show it to you properly. The car is a Mercedes Benz C300 4W in elegant black color. I am a huge believer in a car being the extension of one's personality and style. It doesn't mean that everybody has to rush to the nearest expensive car dealer and get a loan to pay off whatever their value their personality at. And we all know that everyone values themselves at least as a Ferrari :) But that's not what I mean... It goes beyond the make of the car. You can tell a lot about the person by the way they treat it, the color they choose and the way they behave in it. I chose a Mercedes because I am a longtime fan of the brand (in no way I am stating that it's a better or worse car than any other), I like their design and most importantly this particular model, that fits my personality and style: sleek, elegant and classy. The day I got the car I wore a preppy look, that apparently already matched my car without even knowing which one I'll get :) Tell me about the "law of attraction" :)
On a side note, I know I have been teasing you for the past half a year with a potential change in the blog structure and I have been analyzing, testing and thinking a lot about the direction I want to take. I think I finally have an idea of a slow transition and expansion, that you'll notice gradually.
As for my life, I think I am getting older, wiser and more appreciative of what I have. That's why I am always grateful to you guys for following along and being patient with my posts. Thanks for appreciating quality over quantity and always giving me your feedback.

Winning in Winter White
Winter is in full swing (in some places :P) and this post is yet another way to prove that we don't have to wait for summer to experiment with fashion and especially with white colors. My latest collaboration with Target is all about wearing white in winter. Here are three ways to wear white-on-white for a fashionable winter outing: a soft and comfy white sweater from Target with high heel winter boots, with the leather jacket for a cold evening and with white converse for a casual fun all-white look.

Home Away From Home - The Empire Hotel
September is almost over. I honestly believe there is some secret force that makes the months go by so fast that you feel like you fell asleep at the beginning and woke up at the end of the month but you only slept a few hours.. Looking back at September, which is always the busiest month, I feel very happy and grateful for my experiences, the highlight of which was definitely New York Fashion Week. Not only I enjoy the fashion week itself, but going to New York is already exciting enough :)
I always have these mixed feelings towards New York - I love and hate it at the same time. It makes me angry, happy, encouraged and disappointed - kind of an emotional roller coaster. But the only feeling the stays the same is the warm feeling that I get when I arrive at my "home away from home" - The Empire Hotel. Last year I gave you a sneak peak of my hotel room, and this year I am taking you to the rooftop where I snapped a few shots right before it started raining on my last day in NYC. That day was full of meetings so I went for a cool black and white look with my favorite wedge converse that I can't get enough of.

Day 3 of #NYFW : Sequins and Mirrors
My day 3 of New York Fashion Week was very hectic with lots of shows and events. Even though the weather turned out to be very hot, I still didn't regret wearing the sequin Ted Baker blazer, because it's so cool and eye-catching, and most importantly, it was a perfect item to complete my look.

New York Fashion Week Day 2
So I know I am a little behind, so expect a crazy overload of NYFW blog posts in the near future :) Here is day 2 report of my NYFW. No matter how many shows I saw that day (honestly, I don't even remember already :) ), August Getty definitely stood out. Stunning cutout dresses and minimalistic monochromatic designs (not to mention perfect looking models with their perfectly straight hair) left me speechless, but nothing had a bigger impression on me than this dress...it's incredible!

Denim Overall
I know. Enough is enough. Denim overalls are everywhere, yet still...I can't resist if I find another great ones, especially if they are ON SALE!

Triple Denim
No matter how many seasons and trends go by, one thing is a classic - DENIM! From light to dark, skinny to bootcut, short or long - you can never go wrong with denim. I picked up a perfect pair of jeans in Target and decided to experiment with denim-on-denim trend and went a little too far...or did I? :) I created a daring look by wearing three different shades of denim combined with white details . Voila - I am ready to rock'n'roll =)

Velvet in Milan
On my one day stop in Milan last month I wore a velvet mini skirt from Sandro with matching t-shirt (that I wore too much after that). Obviously wore good old Converse on my feet since they are a perfect shoe for a day of sightseeing.

Pink on Pink
If you follow me on Instagram you already saw this look that I wore over the weekend. To be honest it's my favorite type of look: denim shorts + interesting sweatshirt. And there is no better way to let your feet relax than wear good old converse - so comfy and so cool!
