Silk vs.Leather

Trench Coat: Zara similar here or here ; Leather Pants: New York & Company similar from H&M; Top: Zara (old); Heels: Via Uno; Bag: Michael Kors; Sunnies: Esprit

I am shielding against the elements in style with my classic Zara twill trench coat. Wearing it cinched at the waist with leather Pants and metallic heels for an elegant yet edgy Approach. I totally love the contrast between silk and leather which causes a glossy finish.

The belted piece can be worn cinched at the waist or left open for a more relaxed take, whatever you feel like.

Nothing is as classic as a trench coat that will transition seamlessly from summer to fall.

PS: I am a happy and proud auntie now. My godson Erik was born yesterday *so excited to meet this little bundle of joy in a couple of weeks*

Camo tomboy chic + wedding guest attire winner

Necklace: Zara; Blouse and Sweater: H&M; Blazer: Zara;  Pants: C&A; Peep Toes: Gabor; Bag: Italian Leather Designer Bag by Carbotti

I got inspired to create this tomboy chic look by Jenna Lyons, the creative director of J. Crew. Her significant style is :

• Wearing opposites like feminine/masculine.

• Mixing up textures like wearing sweater with silk

• Wearing statement jewelry

I added a luxe touch to my camo pants by topping it with my favourite jewel Statement necklace and a white silk button up.  Camo pattern paired with elegant black basics like a blazer or pumps looks serious. A classic way to be dressed to have dinner with friends or the man's friend.

Don't you think Jenna is a great style Icon?

Dress with cut outs

Dress: Zara (sold out similar here); Heels: Zara; Clutch: Asos; Necklace. Forever 21; Bracelet: Tasha

2 things I have to say about this Dress:

1.) It's beautiful because of the ruffled detailing at hem, the color blocking and the cut out at the back BUT as soon as you sit in the car or sit in general it gets wrinkly all over the place GRRRR. I hate that. Why are some dresses getting wrinkles quicker than others?

2.) I got it on sale -WINNER!

3.) It's such a versatile Allrounder Piece.  Pairing with the blazer it's a fashionable Office attire and just by itself a beautiful after work dress or even perfect for a attending a wedding.

4.) My mom is such a great cook that' s the reason why my stomach makes an appearance and is sticking through the dress.

And 5.) I obviously had more to say then 2 things.... oh well, I am just a woman and just can't stop talking sometimes. If Eric would still be here, you probably would hear him saying "Why do you have to talk so much?" followed by "Why do you ask so many questions all the time?"
That being said. I hope you had a good week so far? :-)

floral shorts- 3 ways

Outfit I: Shorts: Zara similar by Romwomen; Peplum: forever 21; Clutch: Boutique in Zajecar, Serbia: Heels: Zara; Bracelets: Serbia Boutique; Sunnie: Esprit

Outfit II: Blazer: Forever 21; Top: H&M

Outfit III: Blazer: Mango; Blouse: H&M, Heels: Via Uno; Clutch: H&M; Hat: H&M; Pearl Necklace: Forever 21

Purchasing my clothes has one requirement: Versatility. I try to use my clothes to the fullest and Combine them in multiple ways to get the most use out of it. The more colour an item consists of the more colour combinations are possible as in these shorts. Even a pattern mix with the striped blouse Looks pretty refreshing and fun. As you can see, I found the perfect piece in these floral short to raging myself out! Even paired with a white blazer or a black top it would look amazing. I guess I have to wait till next summer to find out though, fall is near the corner here in South Germany.
These Shorts are sold out by Zara but Romwomen has pretty much the exact pair of these shorts for the half of the price I paid for. They have the perfect floral pattern shirt to pair it with here. I just stumbled across this freaking and pretty unexpensive online store recently and already love it. you should check it out!
Which combo is your favourite? Do you get the most use out of your fashion pieces?

Embroidery dress - White monochromatic ensemble

  

Dress: Mango Mango Usa; Blazer: Mango; Heels: Mango (old); Necklace: Zara (new);

Last week I was wearing an all white ensemble with a skater dress. I changed it up a little bit by this super cute cotton shift dress with swiss embroidery details and pleat at front. The three quarter sleeves makes it perfect for chilly summer evenings when going out for dinner. Eric took me out to a just gorgeous, I mean breathtaking local Restaurant in Bertinoro with a panoramic view, you can only dream of. As the pathes were pretty bumpy and steep those kitten heels were the right and comfortable choice of shoes.
As you notice I just love wearing monochromatic Looks recently (last seen here and here). Plus I wanted to show off my hard earned tanning at the italian adricatic cost, nothing works better than white right? [side note: If you get lost reading your INSTYLE magazine at the beach, make sure to change positions unless you want to be only tanned on your front side]

That Picture totally caputures the beauty of the Italian landside. We sure did have a romantic dinner at the Cadewe Restaurant that only offers food and wine from the region, so worth it.
