The Shirt Dress

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

A fresh and  timeless spring and summer staple, this lightweight shirt dress turned out to be my favorite piece. Shirtdresses are casual and easy to wear, making them perfect for the warmer days of spring and summer. They are versatile and can be easily dresses up or down.

So, if you haven’t invested in a good one yet, I recommend you do so now! 😉

Stripes & Houndstooth

 

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

As you probably noticed, I’ve always had a soft spot for feminine clothes, but this Zara one shoulder striped blouse is absolutely gorgeous! It was love at first sight. I spotted it in the store right away and of course had to have it. This is one of the most statement-making blouses I’ve  come across this year. The possibilities of wearing it are absolutely infinite, so be prepared to see it often!

For today’s look I paired it with houndstooth print trousers in the same color combination and golden accessories.

Happy Easter!

Hello Everyone and happy Wednesday! How is your week going so far?

I just wanted to say hi and share some photos with you from last weekend. In today’s post, I’m wearing my latest find  –  the high waist  mom jeans from Zara. Comfy and casual, they are exactly what I was searching for but haven’t been able to find the perfect fit until these ones.

 

I also want to take this opportunity to wish you Happy Easter!

Just give Pink a chance!

 

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

Guess what’s hot this spring? All things pink!

 

 And what’s not to love about pink? It goes with everything and makes you look fresher than fresh!

 

There has always been something… juvenile about this color, traditionally associated with hyper-femininity (formerly the preserve of Barbie) but, it’s 2017 and people are wearing what they love. So it’s no surprise that pink has been reclaimed by designers, editors, and industry movers, positioning this color at the center of their aesthetics. The prayers of girly girls everywhere have been answered: pink is the unofficial color of the year!

My Essentials

Hello Everyone and happy (almost) 😉 weekend! I hope you are all enjoying your Friday! 

I love the classic look! That’s why  today’s blog post is dedicated to not one but three (!) wardrobe classics: the beige trench coat, the relaxed fit jeans and the white blouse. For me, these items are the workhorses of any well-dressed woman’s wardrobe, providing the foundation for many outstanding looks.There’s something so effortlessly chic about  these classic and timeless key items! And let’s be honest: you can never go wrong with a beige trench coat and a pair of jeans.

 I think it’s definitely worth investing some money in these closet essentials, because they will never be out of style – promise!

Accessories: the red beret

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

Accessories and clothing have equal significance in an outfit, working together to create an ensemble that expresses your style and who you are. For me, the winter cold is the perfect opportunity to finish my outfit off with a pretty red beret. I think the beret is a key accessory, a perfect little finishing touch. It will make a playful yet chic addition to daytime looks. My latest find is the Topshop beret I’m wearing in today’s post. I hope you like it.

Last Day of the Year

Hello Everyone, I can’t believe I’m writing the last post of 2016!

I couldn’t let this day pass without thanking all my friends, family and followers  that have supported me through this year. What I have accomplished so far has happened only because of your neverending support. I hope I have inspired you to chase your dreams as I have chased mine!

I wish you all the best during 2017, and above all, stay fashionable!

With all my love,

Carmen

Love The Oversized Coat

Good morning, Everyone! Hope you are all enjoying your weekend!  

I wanted to say a quick hello and share a few new pictures from the last days.  

Personally, I love to wear oversized clothes, especially outerwear. I absolutely love this black and white  Zara oversized plaid coat! I think it’s worth investing in the oversized coat, as it can be paired with so many different looks. It completely transforms any outfit, remaining functional and ideal for cozying up during cold days of winter.

The Button-Down Dress

Hello Everyone and happy Sunday! How is your weekend so far?

This button-down dress from Zara is by far my new favorite!

There’s something so irresistibly casual and effortless about it, so versatile, easily dressed up and down. A long sleeved chiffon dress tied around the waist looks great with flat shoes and a massive bag for casual days or with heels and a clutch bag for a more sophisticated look.  Leave it loose and untied around the waist if you’re going for a boho-chic style or yo’re thinking of layering it up with a denim or leather jacket.

Crisp White

For me, there is nothing like a crisp white top: a white blouse is the top closet basic every woman should own because it’s one of those true wear-anywhere that just always works.

Whether you pair it with a black skirt for the office or with blue jeans for the weekend, it will always be “in”.

If you already own the classic button down shirt maybe it’s time to add to your wardrobe a beautiful white blouse with a twist. The particular top I am wearing in today’s post is new and definitely one of my current favorites. I just can’t get over those amazing sleeves!
