Little Details

I like my outfits to be simple yet stylish and sometimes it's all about the little details that you add to the look that change the whole perspective. In this particular case I added a sophisticated pendant from Michael Hill to the feminine lace top, velvet skirt and ankle boots, and this added a touch of elegance and charm that the look was missing. Michael Hill is a great site for sophisticated jewelry options for every pocket.

Refresh Your Fall Wardrobe With Golden Tote

My style is changing as often as the weather and I am always looking to try something new. But occasionally I get stuck and run out of ideas on what I want to try or where I should shop. Not to mention that it's all incredibly time consuming. I am sure I am not alone in this, right ladies? ;) 
Recently though I discovered a new service that could be a great solution for all of us. It's called Golden Tote, and it's basically a program where you purchase a surprise tote full of clothing ($49 for 2 items or $149 for 5-6 items) and you only choose 1-2 items in that tote. As for the rest, it's picked out by Golden Tote's stylists based on your style profile. So you actually get a surprise bag with amazing stuff for a steal! I was excited and a bit scared when I placed my order for a large tote, but ended up overjoyed when I got a whole new wardrobe in the mail :) I created 4 different fall looks with the items and honestly, I can't decide which look I like the most. By the way, since the return policy is all or nothing, girls are also trading pieces they don't like in their tote on "Golden Tote Trading Group" Facebook page.
Golden Tote launches new sales on the first Monday of each month, so go check them out ASAP before this month's items sell out! And here are the looks I created with mine ;)
I love early fall fashion. There is something elegant and romantic about it. This velvet midi skirt that came in my tote, paired with lace crop top and a foulard helped me create just that type of mood.

Gold Details and Fur

My favorite combination of colors is black and white, but when you add just a little bit of gold details and some fur, the look becomes super chic. The gold details I chose are my new hand chain from Leuer with a matching necklace. I love the fact that the accessories are thin enough, which adds an extra touch of sophistication. 
And obviously fur - another material that is so elegant and classy. You won't believe it, but my faux fur cover-up is not actually a cover-up, it's a scarf! I purchased this scarf about 2 years ago when Anna Karenina collection from Banana Republic just came out. This is how I wore it: I wrapped the faux fur (middle) part around my shoulders and wrapped the remaining long ends of the scarf around my waist which resulted in a thick belt that I fixed with my gold bracelet. Completed the look with my thigh-high boots from Target and mohican clutch from Ted Baker.

Be Radiant and Demi Lovato Giveaway

I am so excited to share an exclusive giveaway from the Radiant Collection from Tampax and Always. In honor of the Radiant Collection's partnership with Demi Lovato and her World Tour, which encourages girls to have the confidence to wear what they want any time of the month, I'm sharing my own "confident" fashion inspiration today. 
Today I wore this stunning suit from Ted Baker. The pattern, the color and the cut are so incredible and eye-catching, but I went even brighter by adding a mohican detail clutch and neon pink heels. Sometimes you leave me comments saying stuff like "Yes, that looks cool, but I could never pull that off". All I want to say, my dear friends, is "Oh yes you can!
What I learned in these few years of working in fashion is that it's never about what you wear; it's about how you wear it. If you feel confident in your outfit, it doesn't really matter what it is - you'll always look good! You could even wear a trash bag and still look awesome if you pair it with confidence and a killer pair of shoes! So pursue your wildest outfit ideas and work them as long as you feel good in them. And the Radiant Collection from Always and Tampax will make sure you can do it any day of the month with no exceptions ;)
Now, the most exciting part of the campaign is the Demi Lovato Concert! 
PRIZE #1: 2 tickets to Demi Lovato's concert at the Staples Center in LA this Saturday September 27th!!!!

Make your Denim Shirt Look Chic at #NYFW

When I was buying these boots back in January, I already imagined myself wearing them to fashion week :) But when the time came I got a little stuck. It's easy to wear them with a one tone dress, but how could I make my look original without looking like a clown? :) It took a little bit of planning and thinking but finally I came up with this denim and white combination and obviously had to add some extravagant eye-catching accessories like Versace jeweled cat-eye sunglasses and Ted Baker Moti Clutch with mohican detail, which I have been lusting over for about a year! By the way, notice how I buttoned up my denim shirt and lifted up the collars for an extra touch of chic. I still have a bunch of looks to share with you guys, so stay tuned for more NYC fashion ;)

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.

Décolletage

Sunday was a perfect day for me to wear this feminine but extremely comfortable dress from ASOS. The dress is supposed to have V-back and boat neckline in front, but I couldn't resist wearing it backwards. This V-shaped neckline accentuates décolletage area in en elegant but never vulgar way.

Long Shorts

I never liked long shorts, but this year I tried wearing them with bright details and flat shoes and really liked the outcome. What do you think? ;)

White and Neon

Ever since the NY fashion week last September, I had a dream of finding the perfect flare pants in white and finally I did! Not only I wore them on the day I bought them, I also definitely decided to take them to fashion week this year! White is a perfect color for summer and nothing makes it stand out more than a crazy color paring like this one with neon yellow.

Rain Boots No Rain

Since I live in LA, I might have to wait a little while until a get a chance to use my rain boots from Ted Baker (how cute are they?) for their purpose. But why wait? I decided to wear them as soon as I got a chance: on a sunny but a bit chilly day. Styled them with my new "gravity defying" Joe's Jeans and a zipped up blazer with nothing underneath but a bright orange scarf ;)

Elegant Geek

To add fun to an elegant and classy look with a tweed skirt I wore this cool geek t-shirt from Starling Style. You can get it for virtually nothing if you use a special 30% discount code (check out outfit details below) on their website. Mixing all shades of coral and pink did not seem like a good idea at all, but surprisingly turned out to be a fun and refreshing combo. Happy Monday!

Pastel Stripes

The weather is changing so fast these days: from sunny to gloomy, from warm to cold. My solution for today was a cozy oversized sweater from Lulu's, which I wore as a dress in daytime and as a tunic over jeans at night.

Feminine Chic

I wore this skirt on severals occasions recently and each time the outfit came out very feminine. This look is the most sophisticated of all: the lace top, the bow on the belt and pastel pink heels add up to the whole "princess"-feel of the skirt.

Pastel Pink

I am not a big fan of pink, however, if styled properly, it can look elegant and chic. Obsessed with these ASOS Peg Pants - they are comfortable to wear and so easy to style!

Black Friday, Deals and a Trip to NYC!

I haven't disappeared, just got way too busy with online and offline shopping taking advantage of Black Friday deals :) By the way, you can still take advantage of major sales from these stores: ASOS, Bloomingdales, Sephora, Nordsdrom, Shopbop, Barneys, Forward by Elyse Walker, Saks Fifth Avenue. Obviously, sales are almost anywhere, but these stores are the ones which kept me busy. I am talking designer stuff at almost half off!!!
Now, to the outfit! I bought this dress in August but it is still one of my favorite little black dresses. It has a perfect feminine shape and soft thick texture. Added a foulard to bring more sophistication to the look.
And last, but definitely not least! How do you feel about being flown to Abercrombie's Flagship Store in NYC and shopping with an influencer of your choice? Possibly even me ;) For this you need to go here and click VOTE! It's THAT easy!!!

Wrapped Up

These photos were taken right before summer came back to LA. In the past few days we are back to t-shirts. Not that I am complaining, but I really want fall to return.

One Coat - Three Ways

The weather has become "coat-friendly" and I am so excited to finally wear my new Ted Baker coat - not only it looks so elegant and keeps me warm, it also allows me to be creative and come up with different ways of styling its collar!
