Bandage Dress and Pearls

This is my first bandage dress and I must say, I love it! It fits the body like a glove and accents its natural shape and curves! Accessorized with pearls - they add elegance to virtually any look. My favorite accessory at the moment is my new pearl necklace from The Pearl Source - a website that has the biggest variety of stunning pearl pieces.

Parental Advisory: Classy Nerd in Town

When I was a little girl I had a very bad eyesight but I was so terrified of looking ugly or nerdy in glasses that I preferred to see very poorly than to look funny! Nowadays, years after my laser eye surgery, I find myself obsessing with clear fashion glasses because a) they look so awesome and b) being nerdy is very cool (or am I the only one who thinks so? :) ). 
Love the colorful frame of these glasses from Trioo and obsessing with the affordable version of popular "Parental Advisory Explicit Content" sweatshirt from ChicWish. Happy Monday!

One Dress Three Ways


I love a dress that I can style for many different occasions and this one from Target is another one of those. I absolutely love how it goes from casual to elegant with the right accessories.
I am also excited to announce my partnership with Cosmic Cart, the universal shopping cart for the web. Cosmic Cart lets you buy items from multiple retailers without having to leave my site! When you see the Cosmic Cart icon in photos, just click it to shop the look. It's that simple!
So for the fist look I turned the dress into a skirt by wearing a crop top and a wide belt to make the transition from top to bottom smoother. This outfit is a perfect elegant look for a day full of meetings.

Vive la France (Bastille Day)

I didn't even realize until now that today I wore an outfit which is so appropriate for the Bastille Day. It was blue, white and red! I styled a simple white dress (perfect for summer) with sneakers this time. Yes, I've been wearing so much more flats these days as you can see in my previous posts. I am a huge comfort lover, so heels are not an option for long summer walks. Besides, there is nothing uglier than a well dressed girl who can't walk in heels (and trust me, these are probably 80% of all girls wearing heels).
But enough of this. Heels are important, but flats are just a must. I've been expanding my fashion sneakers collection recently and these ones from Twins for Peace are my absolute favorites! They are a) from PARIS; b) made from silk with satin shoe laces and c) just so comfy and adorable! Shall I say more? :)
And lastly, a final touch was my new super trendy Daniel Wellington watch. They are perfect with any look (especially if you are going for preppy or casual cool) AND great for both guys and girls! See for yourselves ;) By the way, you can get a 15% discount on their site using the code labydiana at checkout!
