film noir

Hi guys!

I hope you had a fun Halloween (if you celebrate that). I was really bad this year, and came up with a few ideas of what to dress up as, but had no concrete ideas until the very last minute. I ended up dressing up as Cleopatra. I threw on a white lace dress, some gold accessories, and just focused on the face. 

If you would like to know how that came out, click here.

Today's post isn't Halloween related, but it is dark, so I thought it would be great to share at this time. Every time Melissa and I get together, really creative things happen. This time, we did something with film noir feels. These shots look like they're straight from a glamorous crime drama.

dress: thrifted, choker: Anne Klein (birthday gift), rings: Primark

I love this dress because it's so simple and elegant. I always top it off with a fun necklace.

What do you think of this?

POP

Hey guys!

If you live in the US, you probably know that Primark launched its store in Boston a couple of weeks ago. It was all over Twitter and Instagram. I even read some tweets from across the pond, saying how jealous they were of our beautiful, four-story-tall store. And I agree, I would be a little jealous if I didn't live in Boston too! We're so lucky to have the first Primark in the US!

I did a few shopping trips to Primark. During one of those trips, I got the awesome popcorn bag and  set of rings that I'm wearing on these pictures. The popcorn bag was more like love at first sight. When I saw it, I knew I had to have it!

The bag was only $9, and the rings were $4.50 (I'm only wearing 3 rings out of the 8 that came in the set). Yep, you can do a lot with just a little cash!

Melissa and felt very inspired by the popcorn bag while doing this shoot! What do you think of it? Do you like it as much as we do?

bathtub series: jelly

Hi everyone!

Here is the second set of the bathtub series. Although I love them all (and still haven't posted a couple), I have to say this is probably one of my favorites.

I've been meaning to show you this beautiful one-piece swimsuit from Meyli Miyaru for over a year now. I was only able to share a picture on Instagram last year, but every time I tried to shoot it it would just get colder and colder. 

Meyli Miyaru designs very dreamy swimsuits, with one-of-a-kind prints. You won't see their stuff anywhere else. They have this jelly fish swimsuit on sale (because it's now from their old collection), so you can buy it for a lot less. 

Definitely do check their new designs out. They are beautiful.

Again, loving how my Beyond the Stars Y necklace looks! They now have the same necklace with a marble stone, and it's so beautiful.

I hope you liked this one, and can't wait to share the rest of this series with you:)!

digital noise

Hi guys!

Hope you're enjoying your first days of August. I sure am, although this is my birthday month and I really don't want to turn any older. I also don't want September to come by too soon. Seriously, where did the summer go? We only have a few more weeks of it.

On a happy note, I still get to wear cute crop tops for a little longer. This crop top and high waisted midi skirt are by AKA, the same store this dress is from. I still am obsessed with them. I'm telling you, this outfit looks way better in person than it does on camera.

crop top: AKA (here), high waisted midi skirt: AKA (here), chain ring and necklace: Jasmina Jovy, heels: JC

The chain necklace and ring I'm wearing are from Jasmina Jovy's new collection The Chain on Chain, which is not yet up on their website but will soon be. They are part of the same set I wore on my last post. They have been a part of my daily must-wear accessories since I received them.

The level of detail on each piece is mind-blowing. Go and check out all their collections here!

Let me know what you guys think!

foliage

Something I love about living in New England, is being able to experience the fall foliage. I wanted to share some pictures of how the leafs look at this time of the year, before everything gets gray.

Luckily, the weather here in Boston has allowed us to keep wearing dresses. We've only had a few really cold days this season. But, for the most part, the weather has been great! We're also going to be having some warm days this week. Can't wait!

lime & lavender tunic: Urban Philosophy (here), denim jacket: Choies (here), shoes: JC

The dress I am wearing is from Urban Philosophy. A store I discovered over the summer and fell in love with. They have some really trendy stuff and all at affordable prices. Not to mention that you can take an additional 30% off on all sale items. Who wouldn't want these pants for $15, and this shirt for $12?

indian inspired

Another spring/summer perfection by Goldie. I like adding versatile clothing articles to my closet. Articles that I can wear in several ways and never look the same. 

I have worn this top with high-waisted pants/shorts/skirts, and underneath see-through shirts as a bra-top. This is the "bra-top" I was wearing on this post, by the way.

bra-top: Goldie, rings: Tiny Box, nail decals: I Heart Nail Art

Yep, I am actually an Indian descendant. Which reminds me, I want to eat Chicken Curry SO badly!

PS: An international Goldie giveaway is coming our way, very very soon;)!
