White on white

One of the all time favourite looks to all of us is the total black look, it has been worn by most of us and we praise it a lot around winter time!
How about though the total white look which it has especially been seen in all the latest fashion shows. For some it might be too daring but for me I believe that it is extremely elegant and chick.
Here is my interpretation for the “white on white” look for this summer. Topping up your tan is a must, and who said that elegant cannot be turned out sexy!White on white

Previously loved clothes

I am sure that the following will all sound familiar to you…

  1. You bought an outfit that you absolutely adored, wore it a few times in all different occasions, and now all your social circles have seen you wearing it – and your favourite outfit is hanging sad at the end of your wardrobe waiting to be given the love it deserves.
  2. You were given a gift from a friend that you weren’t very font of but you wore it a few times because you had to… but now you just can’t wear it any more
  3. You bought an outfit for a certain occasion (business) and you have only worn it once!
  4. You bought an outfit for a certain occasion/event but you never attend and this outfit still has its retail tag on!

Well all the above are me!
So how about getting involved in a “rail sale” like I have today!
Your unwanted clothes could be someone’s gem!

Milano Moda

As the Italian flavour is slowly fading off as the days go by, and while this blog is finding again its real self, I felt that sharing with you my few hours spent in fashionable Milano would be a nice way to land again to my fashion, make up and style related routine.

Only a few hours in this beautiful, but by many accused industrial city, can elevate your fashion sense and elegance. Walking down the via della Spinga and via Montenapoleone with their beautiful window displays you feel like time has stopped and the only thing you want to do is capture all this beauty.BeFunky_VintageColors_1.jpg

Even walking down to the most tourist area of Milan – il Duomo, I found myself in a fashion shoot taking place – I wonder where would this be advertised!

I think this city was made for me – I absolutely loved it!

Winter inspiration – The coloured coat

It has been a while since I touched this space! As a creative person myself I went through a creative drought period and lack of motivation! It happens to the best of us. You see visiting Greece for the Greek Easter, experiencing the lovely weather and eating all this amazing food led to major holiday blues when coming back to grey Dublin…

It has been so cold and grey but at least I get to wear my lovely winter coats and not my big puffy jacket! You always need to see the bright side of things! All this chilly weather got me thinking of all these lovely and oversized coats that will be out in stores in the next few months and I am definitely in the look for one.

Colourful coats in spring time are the best way of kissing away winter and welcoming all summery happy, and colourful outfits,

Here are a few of my favourites colours for coats worn by two of my favourite and most inspirational ladies in fashion, Olivia Palermo and Anna Dello Russo.

For those of you who have currently skipped spring and are enjoying summer temperatures, I hope this blog post has cooled you off a bit.

Thanks for stopping by and don’t forget to leave some love :-)

Till next post then!

Local Designers

I don’t get to spent much of my time any more to my home town but whenever I get a chance I always love to walk around the city discoverimg the new hot spots and new shops that have sprung through my months absence.

This time a walk down the city centre reminded my of the artistic flair that this city has. I was pleasantly surprised that a few local designer had joined their forces together opening up a small design gallery  where I got to explore their creations.
