A little cocktail dress with overtness situation from Milan. Wore this ruffled dress to the Diesel Black Gold  show and decided to pair it with an unconventional shoe like these cutout overknees from Guess. My metallic nails and accessories seemed like a perfect addition to the burgundy and black palette of the outfit so I went with them.

I’m wearing:

Dress – N12H
Boots – Guess
Bag – Saint Laurent
Watch – Nicole Vienna

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

Just a quick post to show you one of my favourite summer layering techniques, which you’ve probably seen a lot lately. I love wearing a simple tight white crop top under cami dresses and tops as I’m crazy about the 90’s vibes right now.  I’d normally pair tis with a white sneaker, but burgundy sandals seemed like a more appropriate solution for a hot day.

I’m wearing:

Top – Zara
Dress – Pull&Bear
Sandals – CMG
Bag – Milly
Jewellery – H&M

As part of Asos Be Yourself project I was asked to pick an outfit from Asos that would represent my everyday work style and answer a couple of questions about my work. I have to admit I’m lucky to wear whatever I like whenever I like since I don’t work at an office anymore, but naturally I try to make my clothes look appropriate to where I’m going and fulfill specific tasks.

1. Where do you work and what’s your position?
I work as a fashion stylist on shootings, a personal stylist and a blogger.

2. Which aspects of your work make you get out of bed every morning with enthusiasm?
Every day is not like the other, at work I’m always challenged creatively and get to meet new inspiring people everyday. I’m a huge perfectionist and it makes me happy to see my work highly appreciated, and for that I’m ready to wake up as early as needed.

3. What is a standard dress code in your industry?
No dresscode whatsoever.

4. What constitutes your ultimate outfit combination?
My ultimate combination has to be comfortable, flattering and trendy. I need to be at multiple places throughout the day so I keep all these aspects in mind, when I get dressed in the morning.

5. What are your favorite work shoes and why?
Definitely ankle boots. They are edgy, comfortable and work with so many outfit combinations.

6. Any tips on how to save time doing your hair in the morning?
There’s this old school thing I’m doing every morning. After I wash and blow dry my hair I’m using velcro rollers to add some volume to the roots while I’m doing my makeup. It works!

7. Can you give an advice, fashion-related or not, to the people wishing to work in your industry?
The hardest thing is always to persuade yourself you can achieve things, once you do that the rest is a piece of cake! As for the fashion advice, always analyze the effect you want your clothes to have on people and dress according to that.

8. Why you chose this outfit combination?
I wore this particular outfit yesterday, which was my normal work day, where I styled a shooting in the morning, had my pictures taken in the afternoon, went to pickup clothes and accessories for the upcoming shooting and had a meeting with a client after. A warm statement coat and the turtleneck kept me warm, while the moderate heel on the boots and some loose-fitting jeans kept me comfortable. In a warmer weather I would probably replace the coat with a blazer, and wear some pumps instead, but this pretty much sums up what I like to wear everyday.

I’m wearing:

Faux fur coat – Asos
Turtleneck – Asos
Jeans – Asos
Snake print boots – Asos
Bag – Saint Laurent
Watch – Mark Bale

Funny how I wore this outfit right when I came back from Paris two months ago and it still feels appropriate to the weather we’re having right now. I’ve been meaning to wear this old skirt with an oversized sweater for a very long time and finally the opportunity presented itself and I love how it turned out, even though I planned some chunkier shoes and a chunkier sweater. It’s all about the silhouette, right?

Right now I’m getting ready for a business conference, where I’ll be introducing a corporate style concept I developed for a company I’m currently working with, so wish me luck!

I’m wearing:

Coat – Zara (cool camel coats here and here)
Sweater – H&M
Skirt – Betrendy
Boots – Zara (similar ones here and here)
Bag – Asos
Sunnies – ZeroUV

Not that I don’t have any more weather appropriate outfits to share with you guys, I just think it’s about time I’ve shown you these overknees that have become my favorite party shoes in November. I absolutely love sexy thigh highs paired with large knits, pants are optional, but obviously not for this sweater length haha.

I’ve been working hectically in the studio styling and organizing shootings, working with clients and today’s my first free day in weeks! Achievements so far: woke up at 12 pm, went grocery shopping, which I hadn’t done in a while, met a friend for coffee, made this post and did my hair for the night on the town.  Which shoes do you think I plan on wearing tonight? Overknees!

I’m wearing:

Sweater – Topshop (old, similar one here and here)
Jeans – Asos (washed black denim styles: 1, 2, 3, 4)
Boots – Lamoda
Necklace – Jane Kønig (win one here!)

What I like about this outfit is that I’ve worn this combo two years ago and will probably wear it in two years as well. Unless we start wearing 3D-printed plastic overalls any time soon, an oversized coat and a pair of pointy toes will remain fall classics for the years to come.

I was really surprised by the quality of this coat, taupe, is it? It looks even better in real life than on the website and it’s a pretty nice match with my good old pink heels that I like to pull out of the closet every now and then.

What are your fall classics?

I’m wearing:

Coat – Vogos
Sweater – Mango
Jeans – Asos
Heels – Semilla
Bag – Leather Satchel

Well, it’s not exactly suede but it certainly looks like one! I missed on the real suede this year (okay, I confess, I wasn’t looking hard enough), but this stretchy suede-looking trench coat absolutely does the trick and doesn’t cost you an arm and a leg. There are limitless styling opportunities when it comes to suede coats, but since it’s already chilly outside my best guess would be to wear it with flares and mom jeans. I kept the rest of the outfit simple and classic this time, but I also have another sporty and edgy combo to show you in one of my next posts.

I’m wearing:

Coat – Shein (check out this real suede one here)
Top – H&M (similar one here)
Flared jeans- Asos
Bag – Marc B
Boots – Zara
Watch – Daniel Wellington

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

Strolling along Canal St Martin on our last day in Paris in my striped poncho, which doubles as a scarf and a blanket on a plane.  Probably one of the most versatile items in my closet that I try to stock up on ever since blanket capes became a thing. I can’t believe Paris happened almost a month ago, even though this has been a one hectic month for me. Can’t wait to go back as soon as I can, I’ve definitely left my heart there.

I’m wearing:

Poncho – Stradivarius (cool ones here, here and here )
Sweater – Mango
A-line denim skirt – Shein (similar ones here and here)
Suede boots – Zara (similar ones here and here)
Backpack – Leather Satchel Company
