One of the classics is the white shirt & black pants. How do you restyle it to fit into SS2019? Well this is my version of it. My go-to shirt this summer - solid cotton with loose cut and a lot of ruffle but still no ruffle. Wide-legged pants that I've been wearing for a couple of seasons. Heavy and flowy , slightly short but not too short, important not to make you look chubby. Today, white sneakers for the walking part to subway but then changed to white summer shoes. Classic but still up-dated! How … [Read more...] about Restyling The Classics
Another Summer Style With Pants
Here we go, another black & white style! Slightly more relaxed with white denim and a sleeveless top. As it is for the office I style it with My black blazer. Just adding some color by my trick this season - the yellow pop - you know with the belt. Denim - Levis Top - Filippa K Blazer - Rag and Bone Pointed flats - Acne … [Read more...] about Another Summer Style With Pants
The Love For HM Or Not
In someways I'm just very impressed by HM, their prices, the consistency on delivering at the spot trends to (sometimes) ok quality.

This knit was just to create a couple of new … [Read more...] about The Love For HM Or Not

With pearl earrings bringing in a slightly classic touch, subtle but still there! Acne Skirt - other style Lace top - Zadig et Voltaire - other style … [Read more...] about Running Old Tops With New Skirt
My New Companion
End of season sale and I found a new companion that I have great hopes for. A black and white little miracle jacket that will accompany all my black skirts and pants. Feminine with a straight and short cut and as a detail, a little bow tie (that the pictures don't really capture). At first I actually planned to take it off but it makes such a cute little detail so it's there to stay. Gotta love the French designers, the website is worth a visit just for the mixed media setting. Check it out - Giambattista … [Read more...] about My New Companion
More Patterns Than I Can Handle
It doesn't take much of a pattern mix to get me de-routed... The combination of the jacket and my purse is my interpretation of the trend with mixing different patterns. Oh well, I realise it's so subtle some people won't even notice.... Slacks – Whyred Jacket - Hope Purse - Jerome Dreyfus Shoes - Arche … [Read more...] about More Patterns Than I Can Handle
