SCHOOLBOY CRUSH & REED KRAKOFF BOXER TOTE










Leilla pumps via Pink & Pepper | Reed Krakoff Boxer tote via Neiman Marcus | Rag & Bone Bailey jacket |  Nanette Lepore sweet sixteen skirt | Basilissa pave bracelet via Ily Couture | Sephora by OPI nail polish in What a Broad


I would like to start by announcing the winner of StefaniBags International Giveaway! Congratulations to Josiane Goncalves, hope you love the CC Skye Bag as much I do!

Not really sure how to even begin to describe or explain my obsession with blazers. A big fan of tailored pieces and layering in general, blazers are like my second skin, I feel most comfortable and confident, wearing one. So, whenever they come back in style, like they have for this Fall/Winter, I feel absolutely ecstatic! Take this schoolboy Rag & Bone blazer for example, love the chevron print and slightly shrunken fit, from the moment I saw it, I knew it was one of those pieces I'm gonna wear with everything and everywhere. Suppose this is a warning of a sort, so get ready to see it a lot! And I mean a lot!!!!

P.S. I've been getting a lot of emails from you guys about the jewelry I wear. Suppose it's not really a big secret I am extremely fond of bracelets and necklaces. I got a lot of emails in particular, about the bracelet I'm wearing in today's post. Along with the statement necklace I wore in a recent post seen HERE, this ultimate pave piece of arm candy is from Ily Couture, a brand I absolutely adore and wear quite a bit. I love their bold jewelry, amazing color palette and impeccable quality. 








Keep on smiling,
Love,

CURRENT CRAVINGS ON LYST


1. MATTHEW WILLIAMSON Embellished Suede Clutch | 2. MICHAEL KORS Plated Chronograph Watch | 3. VALENTINO Jewel Embellished Clutch | 4. MARCHESA Laser Cut Ruffles Cocktail Dress | 5. H&M Jacket | 6. MADEWELL Sunny Day Tortoise Shades | 7. GIUSEPPE ZANOTTI Strappy Sandal \ 8. OSCAR DE LA RENTA Leaf Motif Collar Necklace

Decided to share some of my favorites via Lyst.com, where I've been spending most of my time lately. Currently I am obsessively shopping for Fall/Winter, guess it's my way of trying to accept that Fall is just around the corner, or perhaps, because this year, Fall is all about color and embellishment, and of course, you know how I feel about those. But regardless, the above are just some of my current favorites, and that gorgeous Valentino embellished clutch is right at the top of the list! Seriously, is there a person in the world who is not drooling over this bag? I know I sure am,  just as I am drooling over those strappy Giuseppe Zanotti sandals, but than again, this Fall is all about drool-worthy pieces...

AQUAMARINE









Love aqua chiffon asymmetrical maxi dress via InLoveWithFashion | Fendi color-blocked strappy leather sandals | J Crew Invitation clutch - similar here | J Crew belt - similar here | ASOS smooth double cuffs


Wearing what is probably one of my favorite dresses of all time, and if you visit my blog on regular basis, you may remember a similar one I wore in a post from last Summer. This year, when I saw that it also came in this beautiful soft aqua shade I just couldn't resist the urge to get it.  I'm like that, you know, when I find something I like I  buy it in a few different colors... In fact, now I'm pondering whether I should get one in green or maybe floral print, or both:) Decisions, decisions... Regardless of the color, basically a perfect dress to wear for a romantic-impromptu dinner date with the hubby at our favorite little place in Malibu.


Keep on smiling,
Love,
