Magenta


 

Dress: Asos
Clutch: Mango
Heels: ZARA
Sheba & Sheik Necklace: HRH Collection

 





I purchased this dress to spent last christmas with my boyfriend and his family in Florida. Not only do I love this bright cheerful magenta colour which adds a vibrant summery vibe but also  its cut and flowing material. So flattering when you are curvy and have wide hips :-).  It's so versatile that it can be worn all year around- in the winter with tights, cardigan and boots. Wearing a bright dress liked this, it's essential to wear natural/basic colour shoes. I picked my favourite black snake heels to avoid looking overdone.  Styled with my favourite Sheba and Sheik necklace from HRH Collection, the necklaces totally sticksout and gives that look a polished touch. I think this kind of dress and colour looks flattering on every woman, don't you think?

My man is the more casual type prefering comfy footwear ;-)
ONLY 2 weeks and 4 days till I get to see him after 8 months of seperation, can't wait to hold my lovely doctor in my arms <3
Hope Y'all have a great start in the week!

Business Chic!

Hey guys! Hope you have a great start in the week. Today I'd like to share with you what I usually wear to work. I am not a big fan of uniform suits (usually the pants that go with the blazer have a strange cut or are just not fitting me perfectly). I'd rather pair a blazer with pants that are made out of different fabrics, which gives the look a more modern twist. As the waxed black pants with the zipper gives the outfit a rocky edgy finish I paired it with a scarf printed blouse to underline feminity and elegance. The nude coloured heels and bag softens the look. Working as an HR Representative in a modern company it's so much fun beeing able to go with fashion and not beeing forced walking in boring conservative cloth pants :-)

Day to Night Transition




Dress: Promod
Blazer:  H&M
Clutch: Mango
Bag: Belmondo
Necklace: Seejewelry
Ring: Morellato
BlackPumps: Via Uno; Nude Pumps: ESCADA
Heels: Tamaris








It's so easy to transform a  day to a night outfit. All you have to do is is exchange the blazer and pointed toe pumps to a clutch some heels and jewelry :-). As you can see, the transition from an office outfit to an outfit that can be worn after work to have dinner or some cocktails with friends can be achieved with just some items.

Splash of pink and coral

 Skirt: H&M
Top: Vero Moda
Heels: ZARA
Clutch: H&M
Jewelry: Seejewlry (here) and (here)








On my business trip to Munich, I discovered this embellished pink mini skirt at H&M trend. What a girly statement piece that upgrades every look for this season.The coral ruffled shirt gives it a flirty polished touch and is such a mood lifter.  Of course I had to accessoires it with some of my gold chain jewelry. Catherine from Seejewlry has some really amazing pieces, you should def check out her page.
Probably one of my favourite oufits  for this summer. I'M LOVIN' IT (insert high opera voice) and feel like a coloured fruity lollipop :-D

Green is not just Green!

I usually don't reach for green items  also there are really pretty hues out there. BUT when I spotted this beautiful green mini skirt with the gold zipper I knew this baby is coming home with me :-)
The white silk blouse underlines the perfect summer complexion, while the green skirt emphasize colourful accents. Paired it with my gold pointed pumps, rose gold bracelet and nude colured clutch to give it that polished finish. Especially the length and cut of that skirt is so flattering when you have cuved hips and larger thighs.  Not every green shade fits the skin tone or hair colour. I usually prefer greens with blue undertones  to bilious or yellowish green tones. Do you have any preferences?

Thank you for stopping by. I hope you enjoyed my look of the day? :-)

Marilyn Monroe - My favourite Movie Icon

 MAC Marilyn Monroe LE Release Fall 2012
I just came across MAC's announcement of their new Marilyn Monroe LE release which is planned for October in the US and Europe- YEAH. What a brilliant idea, have no clue why they didnt't came up with that before. I am a huge Marilyn fan she is probably the truest beauty icon I can think of. If you scroll down you can see a list with the names of the Collection. I know my bank account won't be too happy about my spendings in October, wah sooo excited, besides Diamonds mac products are a girl's best friend! :-D
As suspected, the collection consists of lots of red hues for lips and nails, beige and grey eyeshadows, subtle blushes and eyebrow products. 
Reading those news I came up with the idea sharing my Marilyn Monroe shooting pics with you that were taken a couple years ago. It was a lot of fun taking those pics and I love sliping into different roles. Kinda interesting what clothes and make up can make a difference. I hope you like my interpretation of Marilyn's look. What did you love most about Marilyn?
