The Biker Coat

Good morning Everyone and happy Monday! Hope you had a wonderful weekend!

If there’s anything I’m loyal to in life, it must be warm, fluffy outerwear – a part of my daily uniform that gets me in the mood to go out and face the cold winter months. The biker teddy coat I’m wearing today manage to give any outfit an unexpected twist and edge and at the same time make you look cute and cozy.

I paired the coat with a Nordic  sweater and black mini skirt and decided to have some fun with my shoes. I love my new Lost Ink loafers because of the soft and light muffin bottom and the pretty bows. These are definitely winners for me! To complete the look and bring a pop of color, I went for bright lips and handbag.

The Long Plaid Coat

Good morning Everyone and happy Sunday! There’s no doubt that the worst of winter has arrived, bringing sub-zero temperatures and icy winds along with it but when I see snow I feel pure joy! Many of us have happy childhood memories of playing in the snow, so when we see those big, fluffy flakes twirling from the sky, these memories kick in and we feel  like a kid again.

I’m in love with this long plaid coat from the moment I saw it! Why? Because it looks rich and glamorous, refined and sophisticated. Something about a  long wool coat screams impeccable style. To get an effortless casual style, I am wearing the coat with jeans, a white sweater and gumboots (I think gumboots are not just practical – they’re also fashionable).  😉 Classic pumps will look great for a sophisticated style, and flats for a more masculine chic.

Sweater Weather

Good morning Everyone and happy Thursday! How is your week going so far?

I just wanted to say a quick hello and share a few images of my new favorite high neckline sweater, another great staple for my Winter wardrobe. Aside from the fact that I love a good knit for the cold season in general, this one just happens to be one of those perfectly oversized, warm and cozy-as-a blanked perfections of a sweater. Since the weather drastically cooled down this past week, I’ve been pretty much wearing it non-stop.

For today’s look I paired it with my old favorite over-the-knee Mjus boots and an woolen midi skirt.

Winter Wrap

Good morning Everyone and happy Monday! How was your weekend?

I was searching for a very long time for a perfect long wool blend cardigan and I’m very glad to say I’ve finally found it!

A simple long line cardigan can work wonders for your wardrobe during winter. Not only is it perfect for throwing on just about anything, it’s also great to have on hand when the temperature drops. To keep cosy this winter layer a striped shirt or dress and tights under a long knitted cardi, wrap yourself in a chunky scarf and you’re good to go!

Good morning and happy Wednesday, Everyone! How is your week going so far? 

 I just wanted to say a quick hello and share a few images of my new favorite pullover.  Since the weather cooled down in this past week, I’ve been pretty much wearing it non-stop, dressing it up or down depending on occasion. For today’s look I choose for a super relaxed yet feminine silhouette.

Good morning and happy weekend, everyone! How is your weekend going so far?

I just wanted to say a quick hello, and share a few new images from yesterday’s shoot.

Today’s look is yet another one of those outfits comprised entirely of my current old and new favorites. I am absolutely in love with this pair of cropped slim-leg jeans from Esprit in my favorite shade of red. If you read my  blog on the regular, you may have noticed that I’m a big fan of this brand. I decided to combine the jeans with a royal blue cropped woolen turtleneck and matching color block scarf . Finally, I added a plaid shirt and a pair of white sneakers.
