About The Hat

Sometimes I wear a hat. It happens probably once a year though the attempts are countless. I have a proper love/hate relationship with this item. Thing is I love how it looks on other people, I also like how it looks on me until I actually need to leave the house. Then, no matter how ready I was, I take it off and immediately think that the whole outfit works better without the hat. Or there is another scenario. I actually go outside and surprise, surprise it's heavy winds and I end up caring the hat in my hands for the rest of the day. So, once a year when I do manage to make it work I feel super proud and give myself a promise to be more of a hat person. And then you know how it goes...

So this is one of those times when I like what the hat does to an entire look. Everything complements each other by being different shades of neutral colours. And the only drastic pop is a clutch. So there you go. Me in a hat. So until next time then. xx

Happy Friday to you all! Hope you have a chilled and pleasant weekend planned! I am looking forward to cooking and eating some nice food (starting tonight) and having some important blog work done. It's time to start planning London Fashion Week schedules and sorting out tickets. Even though it always ends up being the busiest time of the year, there is nothing that excites me more than an opportunity to see next seasons collections. I even bought a very nice 2014 planner today (you can check it out on my Instagram) to be as organised as possible. I hope all those colourful stickers that came with it won't distract me too much, haha.

Now about to this outfit. As you can see, it's quite windy in London but the temperature is still surprisingly high for this time of year. So on days like this I am glad to be able to shoot without my coat and warm UGGs. I've ben wearing these WILDFOX boyfriend jeans a lot lately. Their cut is so versatile and depending on what shoes you wear they are perfect for any type of mood and style. Oh, and the colour of my scarf is probably my favourite shade of blue ever!

By the way, I'll start next week with a very exciting post, so don't forget to check back then xx

Shades of Autumn

Autumn is beautiful. Everywhere I look there is another shade of green, yellow or red making me stop and admire the view. So I couldn't resist to try and pick the outfit that would complement these colours of nature. 

If you would ask me a year ago I would say that red and burgundy shouldn't be worn together and yet here I am risking it and pretty satisfied with the result. I have paired this look with the neutral coloured sunglasses and a black box bag aware that adding more colour would most likely be an overdose. All in all, I felt like I have merged into the autumn background just right.
