Lace and pom pom

It is safe to say that the fashion store (both brick-and-mortar and online) that I visit most often is Zara. I have been a client since their first stores opened in Athens, I was still in junior high and the brand was just starting to take off and becoming internationally recognised. Even when I couldn't fit into most of their clothes, I never stopped going in the store, buying accessories and shoes that are always a safe bet and the occasional t-shirt/sweater. Lately I have started fitting in more of their clothes so I am checking out their stuff even more frequently. In one of my visits I tried on this grey dress. Although it fit and I felt good in it I wasn't really convinced that I wanted it that much in my closet. However now that I saw it online for 199 pesos during sale and still available on my size it was immediately added on my basket.

Grey with pops of colour

Grey is a great winter colour, it is not as dark as black but it is still neutral and appropriate. However, you don't want your outfit to be boring. So throw a pair of tights with texture and some colourful accessories into the mix and you are bound to stand out!

Just add a pair of heeled shoes in some way. Oh and some fake fur would not hurt ;)

Tiger and boots

On Day 4 of Boot Week it is time to introduce the wedged ankle boots. The good thing about these boots is that you can combine them with pants, skirts, dresses, really anything you want and also they can take you through the whole day since they are suitable for almost any occasion. Here they are presented in a rock attitude outfit ;)

Studs and tartan
