Checkered Shirt

Checkered and plaid shirts have regained its fashionable power over the last couple of seasons and going by the most recent fashion weeks it looks like it will keep its crown for a while. It's just so easy to style it and create a laid back, grungy look that I can see why designers keep bringing plaid back. I've had this shirt for more than a year now and it's my go-to item when I'm in the mood for an edgy yet comfy outfit. And it works all year round, through all seasons. 

What's your go-to fashion item at the moment?

The Secret of the Coat

There can never be too many coats! That's what I thought when an Australian label, Finders Keepers, suggested I select one thing I liked the most from their new collection. And I was completely right because it turned out to be just perfect. It's secret is in the collar that can be transformed at least three different ways, every time creating a whole new look to an outfit. And its leather sleeve detail is adding the right amount of chic and edge to the look. I am very excited to see how this coat will work with all the different styling options I have planned for it and I have a feeling that it will be my go-to item this spring. 

Have a wonderful weekend guys and don't forget to eat some pancakes! xo

London Fashion Week, February 18th

And so London Fashion Week is over and all the action has moved to Milan. Nevertheless the last day is always intense, busy and crowded, shows are still happening, street style is still being photographed. It's almost impossible to imagine that only the next morning Somerset House will transform itself into its usual self, the BFC tent will be gone and not a single photographer will be hunting anyone down anymore. 

As for my last outfit, I chose to wear this punky cool CeMe London dress paired with a faux fur vest and comfy biker boots. I'm probably going to repeat myself but I love dresses that can be worn many different ways and transform depending on the accessories. For example, change biker boots to heels and this dress will bring you from day to evening. Wear it with a tailored blazer and it's perfect for a day in the office. 

We got so lucky with the weather yesterday that for once I was actually super warm outside and it felt like the sun is becoming more and more powerful. I got a chance to catch up with my emails and social media right then and there. By the way how cool is this Helmer iPad sleeve? They have such a great selection of accessories of every colour to match any outfit! 

So, bye bye London Fashion Week! This time it hasn't been too easy (being ill all the way through) but it's still been so much fun! Hope you guys have enjoyed my LFW diary xx

How To Layer

Hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday! It's very dark and rainy here today, so if I could spend all day in my pyjamas I wouldn't mind. I am always up for being lazy before the new week starts. 

So let me talk about this outfit. I am trying to experiment and try new things a bit more these days. And one of my goals is to master the art of layering. It looks so effortlessly chic and screams 'model off duty' when it's done right. So here I am wearing a vintage dress on top of trousers, topping it up with  a simple tee and my favourite coat. I am always happy to find a new way to wear the clothes that I've had for a while. 

Talk to you next week lovelies! xo
