One of my secrets of how to dress quickly in the morning is to plan outfits ahead. Whenever I get a new item, I try it on in front of a mirror in various combos to see what works best. Then I take pictures of the outfits I loved most and store them in a separate folder on my iPhone. Waking up in the morning I sometimes browse that folder to see if there’s an outfit that fits the weather and my plans for the day. Of course, 50 per cent of the time I’d be throwing on some skinny jeans, a leather jacket and jump out to run errands, but this is a great way to keep in mind all the different items you have in your closet and make your outfits more diverse.

This outfit, for example, was planned last fall, but I never had a chance to sport it up until yesterday. I did, however, manage to use it in a shoot I styled back in November (sometimes I do that to my clothes). And also it worked great with my new Stan Smiths, so I’m finally deleting the picture from my outfit folder Have a great Saturday, peeps!

I’m wearing:

Cardigan – Zara (similar one here)
Top – Sheinside
Palazzo pants – Zara (these ones would do the trick as well)
Sneakers – Adidas Stan Smith (more sizes and colors here and here)
Bag – The Leather Satchel
Necklace – Asos (similar styles here and here)

The lovely city you are seeing on the background is called Lviv and it’s just become my home. My boyfriend and I signed a lease agreement a couple days ago and finally moved yesterday. We’ve been traveling back and forth for a whole year maybe because both of us have clients here, but finally decided to move and pursue a more relaxed lifestyle.

I’ll be delegating most of my translation work and invest more time in blogging, styling and enjoying life in general, which seems like the only right solution after an entire winter of long work hours and sleepless nights that resulted in irregular pulse, dark circles and bad skin. I’ll tell you more once we’re all set and I hope you like my outfit from a couple days ago!

I’m wearing:

Coat – Romwe (sold out but similar one here and here)
Pants – Missguided (sold out but gorgeous ones here and here)
Fringe belt – DIY
Sneakers – Zara (similar ones here and here)

Watch – Michael Kors

I know that not all of you are on board with the whole pool slider trend, but I swear the moment I got these slides I can’t stop wearing them! They literally go with everything, and while they may not be your first shoe choice for an outfit, they definitely add a little bit of je ne sais quoi because they are unexpected (at least among my friends they are :D). Take these flower pants  for example, can you think of a cooler shoe to pair them with? I know I can’t!

Top – Topshop
Pants – Missguided (sold out but similar ones here, here and here)
Sliders – Choies (on a huge sale!)
