Holiday Dress Ideas

Hello ladies, I chose today to do a different kind of post. By talking to a lot of females, I know that a lot of you hate shopping for holiday dresses. How many of you actually shop for them months in advance? Probably only a few. Same as most people do with Christmas gifts, we tend to leave it for the last minute. And I agree, it may not be the best time to shop for that holiday dress in July. Who wants to be thinking about winter when it's hot outside? But then the holiday season sneaks upon us and our schedules get crazy busy. The malls become hectic and if you want to avoid that chaos, what are you left with but to shop online? I know that many people don't like shopping online (unlike me hehe). It may also be a little late to order that dress now, unless you are prepared to pay extra for express shipping. How about browsing your favourite stores online and picking what you like from the comfort of you house? Then go to the store and try those pieces only. Even better, obtain the item number or name and call head, find out if they carry the dress in your size. Avoid unnecessary driving in these poor weather conditions. I'm sure you can think of better things to do with your day then be stuck in traffic. 

Well today I did some browsing for you and picked a few items to give you some ideas. From girly to edgy, from body hugging to loose. Now you also know that I buy clothing that will give me a lot of wear out of it? As well as pieces that can go from casual to glam? The pieces I picked today therefore are just that. They can be made casual with a nice warm sweater, blazer or a denim jacket. So you can wear them to a party or on a casual weekend outing. Add black tights in the winter or go bare legged in the summer. Want to make any of the dresses more edgy? Add a cool biker leather jacket, biker boots or a belt with some studs or spikes. 


Do you love the colour Red? Chose this gorgeous number with ruffled hem or surprise everyone and opt for this amazing scarlet playsuit.  (Zara $59.90 & Top Shop $88)

If your Go To dress is always LBD, how about experimenting a little? Add some edge to you look by choosing this all leather look or add an element of surprise with a deep V-back line (Top Shop $100 & Zara $79.90)

Winter white is all the rage this winter. Choose this gorgeous a-line frock or this soft embellished piece. You won't even need any jewelry for the latter one except maybe a nice bracelet (Both Forever 21 $41.80 & $45.80)

If you are a girly girl, then these will be just perfect. A-line dress with a cut out on the back which can be toughened up with a biker jacket in the spring/fall, or this blush pink lace dress. Add a spike belt and some black tights, and you go from girly to chic (Both from Forever 21 & both $35.80) 

 Do you love going all out for the holidays? Then choose a lace inspired piece, some sequins or a little bit of both. All three can be made casual with a boyfriend blazer or a warm sweater/cardigan. In the summer wear a white T-shirt and a denim jacket for a cool and chic look. (H&M $34.95, $Zara $99 & Forever 21 $45.80)

And if you want drama in your look? Go for these body hugging pieces: add a fun and bright print or opt for this maxi sheer number. Keep the jewelry minimal, you don't want it to compete with the dress (Top Shop $66 & H&M $79.95) 


 There is a litte bit for everyone's taste and budget. Let me know which one you love the most. Ciao!

The Very First Outfit Post

        I took a few outfit pictures over the last few days, as I was running around my day and I wasn’t sure what would be the first one to post. I debated and as the days went by and weather changed (it seems every day it was a different season), I decided to go with the very first one I shot. This one I actually took last month at the High Park.   It was the last few days when you could see the cherry tree blossom so I did not want to miss out on it. I love spring only for this reason, trees and flowers blossoming. And the fact that it is a sign that the summer is just around the corner (I am still waiting for this corner though), but it is a sign.      A little nervous giggle              Sweater Costa Blanca, white tee H&M, rings, earrings, necklaces and leggings Forever 21, watch Michael Kors, bag Louis Vuitton, sneakers Urban Planet, sunglasses Ray Ban   This is a very casual outfit and very odd for me in the sense that

Sightseeing Montreal In Hot Pink Sneakers & Ripped Jeans

  Jeans & jacket Zara, sneakers Nike, shirt H&M, bag Steve Madden, sunglasses unknown, belt Danier (men's section), chain ring Forever 21, midi ring H&M, forefinger gold rings gifts    Day one in Montreal was the cocktail party and then walking the streets of old Montreal at night and testing out different patios and bars. Day two in Montreal, was again walking the beautiful streets of old Montreal and testing out patios, but now in daylight, hehehe. Oh and lets not forget, blog picture taking. I forget how beautiful this city is and am reminded every time I come back. Then, I wonder why I don't come back more often. It is gorgeous, vibrant and people are extremely warm. It has such a European flare, which I often miss, and this is a quick way for me to get that fix once in a while, without having to fly over an ocean. These pictures were snapped around St Denis street as well as around Catherdral Notre-Dame Basilica of Montréal. I was comfortable in my new N

Are You Blushing Yet?

  Heels Pour La Victoire (Winners), skinnies Nasty Gal (similar here and here ), top H&M, coat Le Chateau (old), bag H&S Handbags , rings Forever 21, watch unknown, sunglasses Ray Ban   Quite the opposite of yesterdays leather look, we are moving on today to a soft blush pink. Pink is very big this season and in particular blush or pastel pink. My first reaction was rather negative to this trend until I realized how many items I have in my wardrobe that are of that colour. So today, even my accessories are blush pink. To break it up a bit I kept the handbag and the pants winter white. What do you think? Thank you for your comments! Ciao! Danas idemo u kompletno suprotnom smeru od jucerasnjeg koznog sorca. Danas govorimo o bebi roze boji. Roza, a pogotovo bebi ili pastelno roza su itekako u trendu ove jeseni. Moja prva reakcija na ovaj trend je bila vise negativna dok nisam uvidela koliko samo komada odece i nakita imam u ovoj boji. Za danasnji outfit stavila sa

Have You Visited Positano & Amalfi Coast Yet?

Pants Zara, jacket Zara, sneakers Forever21, bag unknown (Winners), dress unknown ( similar ), ankle boots PrettyLittleThings There are still quite a few more outfits and cities I’ll be featuring on the blog from my last year’s trip to Italy, however today I’m sharing this post from the last location we visited: beautiful Positano. As we visited Italy in the fall, outfits left to share are more fall appropriate, so I will share them come September. I’ll be dealing with two little babies then so God knows how much time I will have to shoot new outfits. As I’m laying on my couch bored out of my mind counting down the days to my delivery next week (whooohoooo!!!) I’m experiencing such FOMO. Partially because I won’t be going on vacation this summer (though becoming a mom to two little girls is quite awesome!!) and partially because I’m reminiscing of my travels last year. Positano seems to still be one of the most photographed summer destinations so I’m sharing a few pictures f
