Fur and frill

I really like black because it is classic and appropriate for anything but I need bright colours in my life as well, especially on gloomy days like today, so it was about time I brought this light blue dress into action. I bought it during sale season and I have been waiting for the weather to get warmer in order to use it but now that it seems to have taken a turn towards winter again, I decided that with some layering it would be ideal for taking away the cloudy days blues. 

And to take it a step further instead of my typical big bag for everyday use, I decided to use my furry clutch bag. The good thing is that it is big enough to carry everything I might need and it is just adorable :)

Biker and sequins

Everyone knows that you can't have enough black dresses in your closet. They are a classic that never goes out of style, they can be combined with anything and are appropriate for any occasion. Of course the idea is to have a variety of styles so that you have different options and be able to create an infinity of looks. 

The slip dress has made a big comeback in fashion and it can be a very versatile piece that can work as a great canvas for accessories and plus it is so comfortable. For a rock mood I decided to combine it with sequins and biker boots, giving to the look the perfect balance of edgy and cool.

Chunky and gold

I am not a girl for heels as you might know by now but my obsession with shoes won't allow me to pass on a great offer when I come across one. So it was hard to resist buying this pink pair when I found it available on my size, for just 199 pesos. Of course I took into account the fact that the heel is low so I can easily manage and the colour guarantees that it can be combined with pretty much any colour. Did I mention that I think that pointy shoes are super chic?

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 :)

Jeans and heels

Isn't it great that a otherwise casual outfits of jeans and a top can be transformed into something suitable for any occasion when combined with a pair of heels? It is a known fact that I can't really stand very high heels so I own very few pairs that aren't flat and I think that the highest one I have is 7 cm. It is just so convenient that low block heels are on trend right now for my low-tolerance feet because I can wear them everyday to work or for going out but I don't have to be worried that I need a chair where I can crush any minute. So you can't blame me for not resisting myself when I accidentally found this pair still available on my size and just for 199 pesos.

Flowers, sparkles and beads

You probably have noticed that bomber jackets are having a big moment as a trend. Although I was tempted to buy one the past months, I hadn't found anything available on my size that I would be excited about. However on my sale scavenger hunt I came across this one and I really liked it because of the print. I tried it on and I felt it fit well and of course having to pay just 1/3 of the original price helped me make up my mind pretty fast. Let's hope the weather will keep fresh for a little while so that I can get to wear it a few times before the summer comes ;)

Suede and fuchsia

It is funny how you grow up and your style transforms. If you told me about 10 years ago that I would start owning more skirts and dresses than jeans I would have laughed at your face. But I guess becoming a grown-up has really changed my perspective. I think that dresses are great because styling them is easier: you just have to think of the accessories to go with it, no tops and bottoms. Also they can be very versatile depending on the shoes, bag and jewelry you combine them with. So my fascination with them has led me to expand my collection of them. So when I ran into this one by accident (and by accident I mean that I almost never go shopping at the specific mall where I bought it, it was the first time I was going inside this store and I was just there accompanying my friend who wanted to buy clothes for her new job), I tried it on and I thought it would be great for my wardrobe. The colour and the shape can really be a canvas to combine it with anything so for starters I decided to go with fuchsia bright!
