IN FULL BLOOM

Image
Not usually a fan of floral prints, falling in love with this muted grey, black and white number came as a bit of a surprise! Most of the time, I find floral prints a bit too busy or loud, yet there is absolutely nothing overpowering about this understated floral print. Quite on the contrary, the overall effect I think, is rather soft and elegant.  Initially, I envisioned pairing it with a leather jacket and a pair of black sneakers but I suppose the girly side took over and I couldn't resist wearing it with heels. Come to think of it, I couldn't resist quite a few things... like waiting to wear it on a trip I specifically got it for, rather than donning it on a  weekday afternoon outing with my hubby:) But of course, at this point I've come to accept the fact that I lack self control when it comes to cute new dresses:) ... and shoes, and bags and pretty much everything in between. Basically, if it's new I need to wear it right away, regardless! Does that happen to you ...

MIDI ON MY MIND

Image
Wearing what is probably one of my favorite dresses ever... The metallic knit, lace lattice inserts and of course my favorite midi length, all come together to create what is a perfect dress in my opinion:) So good for cocktail hour, I've been so obsessed with this dress, I've actually looked for ways to downplay it a bit so that I could wear it daytime as well. So far, simple strappy flats and a structured cross-body seem to be the winning combination, but I'm reserved to find new ways to wear it just the same. Perhaps boots and leather jacket once it gets a bit cooler... Regardless, I have a feeling you're gonna be seeing quite a bit of it on this blog:) Photography by Karen Rosalie   SELF PORTRAIT Ava lace-insert midi dress { also here } |  CARVELA Gosh black strap heeled  sandals  via ASOS |   ILLESTEVA Boca mirrored sunglasses { in blue  here  } | CHANEL Boy flap  bag   in perforated leather | TIFFANY & CO   Atlas...
