Non-boring basic

When you think of black trousers it is very probable that your mind goes directly to very classic, basic, workwear. But I have proof that they don't have to be boring! I found the perfect basic but a lot more interesting: this great pleated pair during sale season for just 199 pesos. They look cool, they are super comfortable and you can wear them to go to work like I did combining them with a classic striped sweater and flats, or for a more formal occasion combining them with heels and a nice top. Red lips are optional but they always look feminine from day to night :)

Tassels and houndstooth

You might think that grey is dull but I have to admit I am very fond of it, especially during autumn/winter time. It is so great because you can use it with literally any colour and it gives you space to accessorise. Also it is great for those busy days that you leave early in the morning to go to work and then you go to an event or go out for dinner and you know you won't be back home until late at night.
This dress apart from gaining me compliments every time I wear it (woop woop!!), it is also very comfortable and I thought it would be a great companion for the outing of my brand new cool earrings. I decided to wear grey shoes so as to give more emphasis on the earrings but of course they had to have a playful element about them. The burgundy bag was the perfect solution to a bag that I can carry around in a convenient way and that is big enough for the things I need to have with me for a long day.
