Birkenstocks

After months of resisting the trend I have finally welcomed myself into the Birkenstock family. And I'm glad I did because my feet are so comfortable in them that I wish I converted earlier. So what was planned to be a shopping trip for some new simple sandals unexpectedly ended up with two pairs of his and hers Birks (Patrik actually started the whole thing). I felt brave and edgy and it's so funny how what was forever considered as the most unadventurous and unflattering shoe suddenly takes guts to wear. For a long time I said to people that no one managed to sell the Birks trend to me, none of the editorials, bloggers or models did it for me. Then something clicked inside my brain and my attitude changed. I love when this happens! It's nice to be more open minded. Now I'm just worried that I'll ruin their perfect whiteness so I'm taking great care while wearing them.

I'll show you many more ways that you can style Birkenstocks soon as I'm quite excited to see them in action myself. All my other shoes have respectfully made some space in the closet for the Birks and they are proudly waiting to be walked again.

Now go watch some football and have a great weekend! xx

Who could have thought that the end of September can be so warm? We are just in the middle of the Indian Summer and, taking advantage of the occassion, I have decided to stick to dresses and sandals for as long as the weather will allow. 

Having spent three years in London already, I have become somewhat used to its most famous tourist attractions and don't always pay enough attention to just how amazing these places are. That's why this shoot was made in the London's iconic Trafalgar Square. I have mixed with thousands of people who were also having their photograph taken and felt as excited as if this was my first visit here.

While deciding what to wear and how to fool the Autumn's weather this Finders Keepers dress appeared to be the obvious choice. It's colourful floral print lifted my mood every time I saw my reflection in the windows and I am at risk of developing an absolute obsession with it's simple but perfect cut. It's girlie and it's so fun!

In the Detail

Happy weekend everyone! This is just a quick post to share an outfit shot a couple of days ago. It was a type of the day when the weather couldn't decide what it was doing and one minute it was boiling hot while another got a bit chilly. That's why this silk bomber jacket came in handy as it's very light material was just a perfect cover on when the sun was hiding. I have also had an orange-friendly mood and it's well reflected in my accessories choice for the day. While working with colour it's very important not to over match. There is nothing worse than a clearly colour coordinated outfit (you don't need your hat, scarf, gloves, bag and shoes to be all green or purple and worn at the same time.) 

Have a wonderful weekend guys x
