bubble top

fashionagony — Sun, 18 Sep 2016 09:09:51 +0000

There’s been a slight radio silence on the blog lately, caused by work and maybe a little too much partying, which I intend on stopping with this post. I’m wearing a bubble top that I wore back in the summer with denim shorts and skirts and this time I wanted to make it look a little bit more September-appropriate. A sleeveless blazer added just enough warmth and edge to this combo.

I’m wearing:

Top – Chicwish
Sleeveless blazer – Zara (similar one here)
Faux leather shorts – Zara (similar here)
Shoes – CMG
Bag – Milly

ruffles

If I had to pick my most favorite items in my wardrobe that I plan to wear the crap out of, you’re looking at them. I can’t count how many times I’ve worn these high waisted skinnies, my friends are making fun of me because I have a room filled with clothing and still wear them more often than anything. The lace up sandals are still my favorite heels and this Saint Laurent bag has been with me through heaven and hell, it has scratches and the leather starts to lose shape but it’s the most amazing bag I’ve ever had and I really hope it doesn’t fall apart very soon because I can’t think of an alternative. Adding something new to the mix, like this ruffled top, is just good manners.

On another note, later today I’ll be on my way to Vienna. I kinda feel the need to unwind a little bit after a tough month of work, and so do my friends, so we’re off to have a fun weekend. Oh, and BIG NEWS! I’m starting to use Snapchat, so add fashionagony to follow my adventures.

I’m wearing:

Top – Chicwish (also love this one here)
Jeans – Asos
Heels – Asos (similar ones here and here)
Bag – Saint Laurent
Watch – Marc Bale

Hi everyone and sorry for not posting often enough, my life has taken a slight turn recently and I simply can’t manage to accomplish everything I plan. This last picture totally reflects my mood today – excited and extremely humbled. A couple hours ago I won the Marie Claire magazine contest and now they’ll take me to Milan Fashion Week this fall. So many people helped me win this contest (this was a vote, if you’re following me on instagram, you probably know what this is all about) and I’m feeling extremely grateful to have such friends. On another note, I’m working on a side project with a couple amazing ladies and today we’ve had awesome progress, which fills my heart with even more joy, that I hope to share with you. Have a great day everyone <3

I’m wearing:

Top – Chicwish
Skirt – Baukjen
Mules – Zara (old, similar ones here)
Bag – Saint Laurent

bell sleeves the non-traditional way

fashionagony — Wed, 18 May 2016 14:59:47 +0000

As you may have guessed from this post I did a couple of weeks ago, flare sleeves are one of my biggest obsessions this spring. You can wear them in so many ways, the most traditional ones being somewhat romantic or feminine. I wanted to experiment with this dusty rose top a little bit and I loved the mix with loose track pants and white sneakers, that might not be your first outfit choice, but definitely looks fresh and unexpected. I hope you guys like this experiment, I have another flared sleeve top I wanna show you in a more traditional combo, so stay tuned.

I’m wearing:

Bell sleeve top – Chicwish (tons of other ideas in this post)
Pants – Zara
Sneakers – Adidas Stan Smith
Bag – D&G Sicily (lots of gorgeous Dolce&Gabbana bags here)
Bracelet – Jane Kønig
Rings – Wanderlust + Co

stripes & culottes

fashionagony — Mon, 18 Apr 2016 14:26:08 +0000

An outfit from a very nasty and cloudy day last week and two good news! First, I got myself a pastel D&G bag that I wanted for a long time and couldn’t find anywhere in this color (in case you’re interested, I have been abusing it over the past couple of weeks on Instagram). Second, I’m really happy when fellow bloggers make it big in the industry, this is the best motivation for me to work harder. I’m wearing a top from IvyRevel, a clothing brand by Swedish babe Kenza Zouiten, which recently went global with the support of H&M and PayPal. What’s unique about IvyRevel is that instead of designing trendy stuff the brand has launched a style lab that will define precisely which items the customers wanna wear and make them in limited quantities. Yay for technology in fashion!

Top – Ivyrevel
Culottes – Chicwish (similar here)
Shoes – CMG
Bag – Dolce&Gabbana

winter pastels

fashionagony — Wed, 23 Dec 2015 13:19:33 +0000

I think it’s safe to say that over the last couple of years pastels have transformed from being a trend into being a sort of a lifestyle choice that simply can’t go out of style, and the obvious pantone palettes have nothing to do with it. It’s like biker chic, you won’t stop wearing your leather jackets just because you wore them for a couple years in row, am I right? Or am I just making an excuse for wearing sweet pink dresses every once in a while?

On a personal note I’d like to say that, despite my crazy schedule and living in two cities all at once this past month, I’m finally starting to find balance in my life and figuring out what I want to do with it. 2015 brought me a lot of eye-opening experiences, including group trainings and working with a therapist, meeting incredible, inspiring people and even though I’ve always considered myself blessed and happy, this made me realize a lot of things about myself that I wasn’t aware of before. I’ll definitely dwell on that in a separate post and for now, happy holidays!

I’m wearing:

Robe coat – Baukjen (on sale, lots of options in my recent post)
Dress – Chicwish
Boots – Choies
Bag – Michael Kors
Bangles – The Peach Box

blue & tan

fashionagony — Thu, 10 Dec 2015 13:37:37 +0000

A very simple and obvious color combo, but one of my favorite nevertheless. I just love how the tan color of this suede-looking coat (previously worn here) is amplified by the blue background (actually more navy in real life but these pics were taken at dusk so the exposure settings had to go up).

Also here’s a trick how to wear culottes with flats, sure the cropped pants + sneakers take away from your height, but the top and the bottom are the same color, which elongates your silhouette, so call it even!

I’m wearing:

Coat – Shein (check out this real suede one here)
Turtleneck – Zara (similar one here)
Culottes – Chicwish (similar ones here)
Sneakers – Adidas Stan Smith (lots of options here)
Bag – Saint Laurent
Watch – Michael Kors

gray on gray

fashionagony — Fri, 06 Nov 2015 13:41:12 +0000

I guess it doesn’t get any easier than this black & gray outfit combo – it’s easy to style and easy to wear and the best thing is that it never goes out of style. You can repeat this principle in any other color, just make sure your top and coat have similar shade and length.

On another note it already feels like winter here and I’m so glad I was able to shoot most of my October outfits to share with you guys, because shooting something new in these temps will be challenging. These past weeks I have been entirely taken up with styling, working on shootings almost every other day and doing a lot of personal styling. It’s extremely exhausting and time-consuming but I’ve never felt happier with my work. I’ll do my best to post as frequently as I can, but bear with me if I don’t

I’m wearing:

Coat – Chicwish
Top – Shein
Jeans – Asos
Boots – Lamoda
Bag – Saint Laurent
Watch – Cluse

embroidered in warsaw

fashionagony — Fri, 19 Jun 2015 16:42:00 +0000

I hope you guys are having a lovely day so far! Here’s an outfit I wore during a trip to Warsaw last weekend. To me, nothing beats a breezy white cotton top on a hot day and this embroidered piece was waiting way too long to be worn. Also, I found these jeans at H&M and I’m so obsessed, even though they don’t look very flattering to the body. I love the length, the flared leg and especially the color <3

I’m wearing:

Top – Chicwish (cool ones here, here and here)
Jeans – H&M (similar ones here, here and here)
Sandals – Zara
Backpack – Newlook
Watch – Casio

denim skirt & gladiators

fashionagony — Wed, 10 Jun 2015 13:50:01 +0000

Hi everyone! I hope you guys are having a great day so far!

What did I miss? Oh yeah, it’s June and I’m almost sure I forgot how to blog. Lots of things happened since my last post, some of them happy and some of them sad, but right now I’m back on track with posting and life in general. Presenting you a look I may or may not have worn twice already. I can’t think of anymore 70s-but-still-me outfit than this basic embroidered shirt, a cool maxi denim skirt and a pair of gladiator sandals, which I confess I have been wearing a little bit too often lately. Obsessed!

I’m wearing:

Top – Chicwish (similar ones here and here)
Skirt – Choies
Bag – The Leather Satchel
Gladiators – Choies (also lots of options in this post)
Bracelets – H&M
