Sparkles and moustaches

Are you aware of the mini bag trend? It has been around since last year and it is still going strong. Although mini bags look cute, they don't fit many things so for a girl like me that wants to carry around a lot of stuff they are not very practical. However it was hard to resist so when I saw this one on sale in Zara I thought I would give it a go. It may not be the most appropriate bag for going to the office every day but it will certainly do for a dinner out with friends during the weekend!

• Grey sweater dress: H&M
• Black tights: PRIMARK
• Black sparkly sneakers: CARVELA KURT GEIGER
• Grey mini cross body bag in imitation crocodile skin: ZARA
• Black scarf with moustache print: TODOMODA

Venice and glitter

Sneakers have always been associated with exercising, however in the past years they have become very fashionable and you can wear them with skirts, dresses, trousers etc. Although they became a trend I thought that I was not really going to buy into it, since I didn't feel that they were really my style, just a pair for the occasional workout was enough for me. But how things have changed! Now I own 5 pairs of sneakers and I have to admit that I find them very versatile and my feet are thankful! Here you can see the latest addition to my collection. Who can resist pink glitter?? 

• Black V-neck t-shirt: H&M
• Venice print pencil skirt: FOREVER 21+
• Denim jacket: ASOS CURVE
• Pink bucket bag: PRIMARK
• Beige and black polka dots sneakers with pink glitter details: MYTHEO

Gold and bold

I consider myself to be pretty versatile when it comes to my looks. I can use any colour and I don't mind playing it safe or matching bold colours and prints., depending on my mood. I have had this coral shirt dress for quite some time now and I really love it because it is super comfortable and I always receive positive comments about it. I decided it was time to go for a clashing combination with this very casual, print jacket and use some gold accessories. And there you have it!

• Coral shirt dress: ASOS CURVE
• Green military and floral print jacket/rose gold necklace: PRIMARK
• Beige gold sneakers: MYTHEO
• Gold bag: HUSER

Quilted and embellished

Turning the sweatshirt and sneakers look cooler and more formal by adding girly details such as a skirt and a nice handbag, that's what casual Friday should look like :)

• Blue short sleeved embellished sweatshirt: H&M
• Grey imitation leather full skirt: PRIMARK
• Large pink quilted bag: DKNY
• Blue floral print sneakers: TAYLOR SWIFT FOR KEDS

Stripes and birds

No need to feel blue but why not dress in it? Blue is a classic that is suitable for any season and any occasion and it goes well with any other colour so do not hesitate to use it more and convert it into an alternative to black. 

• Blue and white striped long asymmetric 3/4 sleeve t-shirt: LEFTIES
• Boyfriend jeans: ASOS CURVE
• Fuchsia ballet flats: KATE SPADE
• Blue bucket bag: TARGET
• Blue scarf with white bird print: ANN TAYLOR

Seriously not that serious

Well since the weather is still very warm I get to use another of my recently acquired pieces. This time it is caving to the long t-shirt with side splits.

• Black 3/4 sleeve long t-shirt with "Seriously Not that Serious" print: ROSS
• Black skinny jeans: PRIMARK
• Black pointy studded flats: ZARA
• Red saddle bag: PATRICK COX

Culottes and Melissas

It is the middle of February and yet the weather feels already spring/summer. Although I like winter weather and I hope that my coats will get a final chance to leave the closet before the heat officially arrives, I can't complain for getting the opportunity to wear my brand new shoes that came to me all the way from Brazil :)

• Denim button shirt: ASOS CURVE
• White culottes: PRIMARK
• Pink mini Q Natasha  bag: MARC BY MARC JACOBS
• Pink pattern flats: MELISSA by VIVIENNE WESTWOOD ANGLOMANIA

No red/pink Valentine

Please don't think that I am a hater but Valentine's Day is not something really extraordinary for me. Don't get me wrong: I completely believe in love and although the older I get the less romantic I become (I have to be honest here), I just think that you don't need a specific day to give the one you love flowers, chocolates or special attention.  However I respect the fact that it is something that many people will be celebrating so you will need an idea for an outfit. Even though you know I adore pink, I find it quite boring to use this colour or red for the occasion since everybody else is doing it. Red lips are fine but I am going for a different outfit such as a pretty floral dress and adding an edge with a biker jacket. 

• Long white dress with flower print: ROSS
• Black chelsea heeled ankle boots: H&M
• Black biker jacket: NEW LOOK INSPIRE
• Black and white dogtooth clutch: PULL & BEAR

Fuchsia and leopard

Adding some colour to your winter outfit is sure to make it more interesting and put you in a better mood. After all the weekend is not too far away now!! 

• White fluffy sweater: LEFTIES
• Blue girlfriend jeans: H&M
• Leopard print pointy flats: ZARA
• Fuchsia Selma bag: MICHAEL KORS
• Black and fuchsia neckerchief: METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART

Neutral notes

Neutral colours such as black, white and grey are great for any day, any temperature, any style. Just add a little print and texture for an interesting effect!

• Print shift dress: LAGOM
• Black texture tights/grey cardigan: H&M
• White flats with black cat print and tassels: LOLY IN THE SKY
• Black and white tweed backpack: MARIA GALAN

Tan, black and white

A full skirt too girly for you and biker boots too boyish? Combine them in an outfit to give it the perfect balance! Just add a sweater and a nice bag and achieve cute and tough at the same time :)

• Tan sweater: LEFTIES
• Black and white abstract print full skirt/black tights: PRIMARK
• Black leather biker boots/ tan, white and black colourblock handbag: ZARA

Chevron dress and pink the rest

Although chilly the sun is out so that is a good reason why this weekend you should put on a nice dress and a colourful coat and enjoy!

• Pink pointy suede flats: ALDO
• Small pink quilted handbag/ fuchsia and blue colourblock coat: PRIMARk

Plaid shirt and fur gilet

If you are worried that wearing a plaid shirt and jeans makes you look like a lumberjack, add a touch of femininity to it with a fur gilet.

• Girlfriend jeans: H&M
