Repeat Offender: Orange Blazer


There goes that orange blazer again. Yeah , i'm guilty of wearing this 50 million times. But i'm not one to purchase new items just for the sake of taking a photo for my blog. There's nothing wrong with going shopping and getting all excited to style your items, but I actually like the task of using what I have already and making a new outfit of it, or try to at least. Lets face it, if I were to purchase a new outfit all the time, i'd be broke with no lattes. So the trick : mix something new with the old.

Four different looks with my very old oranger blazer.

FALLish WAYS 2013: J.Crew




 J.Crew RTW Fall 2013 created by Jenna Lyons was inspired by a trip she took to Marrakech. You can clearly see the bold geometric shapes of Morocco. Also there is a reflection of the nations hues and palette of their spices in the form of fabric: Cinnamon, Ivory, Paprika Turmeric and Imperial Blue.
Can every piece end up in my closet?

FALLish Ways 2013: MIU MIU



There is always an exciting feeling when fall is just around the corner. Perhaps it is because all the great holidays are approaching or because clothes are just more fun in the fall. I look forward in layering my clothes and wearing textures, patterns with unexpected pop of colors. Also, my legging/tights collection seem to grow, which I do not mind at all.

One of my favorite collections for Fall 2013 is that of Miu Miu. Is there anything Miuccia Prada can't do? I love how Miuccia incorporates stripes in her collections. Stripes have become some what a staple print for Miuccia, as she also includes stripes in creations for Prada. We all know Prada Spring 2011 RTW quite well. Miu Miu's collection is refreshing, as it moved away from the typical fall fabrics of tweed and coloroids and allows us to step into a magical world of quilted nylon and Astrakhan.
No wonder these models look like sailor girls who time traveled into the 50's from the victorian era.
