Soon To Arrive

I decided that i will no longer buy as many clothes and accessories from Cyprus!
Online shopping is my new addiction. Hating the fact that H&M, my favourite high street store is not available where i live, i placed an order yesterday. Thank god my brother is still a student in the UK, so he ships everything over to me.





1. Boohoo black and white pattern leggings
2. H&M burgundy leather trousers
3. Boohoo quilted black leather leggings
4. H&M neon/gold crystal necklace


Soon i will have pictures to show you how to style these items.

What was your latest purchase?

Fall Coats

Finally the weather here changed, so the time has come for me to search through winter-fall coats and blazers. I found some of this seasons trends so here they are:


Military is this seasons trend in every way. A military coat is my opinion the best way to address this trend.







1. Burberry London - Leather sleeved cotton-twill trench coat
2. MCQ Alexander McQueen - Flared wool-blend coat
3. Burberry London - Wool and cashmere-blend trench coat



Burgundy is the new black for this fall. There are such amazing coats in that colour and whoever dares to try it i'm sure that they will make a difference.






1. Alexander McQueen - Wool and cashmere - blend felt coat
2. Burberry London - Mid-length cotton-gabartine and goat hair trench coat
3. Versus - Hooded shearling coat


Embellished jackets were seen in lots of different catwalks. Most of them can't be bought (in my opinion!) There is so much work and detail put into every single one of them to be created which makes them exquisite to look at and wear. A trend for a few, If I may say.





1. Altuzarra - William fox-trimmed embellished mohair duffle coat
2. Erdem - Leta lace-appliqued twill trench coat
3. Valentino - Embroidered wool-blend coat


Colourful coats are here to make break the rules! Who said that we can't wear colour in fall. Vibrant pink, yellow and red are some of the colours of this fall's coats.





1. Diane Von Furstenberg - Laurel wool-blend boucle coat
2. Joseph - Wool and cashmere-blend coat
3. J.Crew - Wool-blend boucle coat



Pattern coats have been available for some time now but this year designers made it a trend not to be missed! The patterns vary from different colours to aztec prints to the classic diamond squares.





1. Kenzo - Oversized wool-blend coat
2. Rag & Bone - Smoking woven coat
3. Etro - Intarsia wool-blend coat

Miroslava Duma

Every fashion blogger who respects herself (like me!) owes to write a few words about this fashion icon. She is the 'Russian it Girl'. I have to admit that every time I see a photo of her in a magazine or a blog, I always observe the way she combines florals with prints, sunglasses, high heels (loubs mostly) hats, and massive fancy jewels. 

Always carrying oversized bags her looks evolves through fashions shows she attends to every year. 
Playful and chic she was Harper's Bazaar Russia former editor and current freelance writer for Russia's fashion magazines. She founded Buro 24/7 which is a website dedicated to fashion, art, architecture, cinema, music and style. Having plans for an English, Asian, French and Arabic version she is constantly trying to be ahead on fashion through meetings in New York and London. 








                               








At an interview she got asked about how she gets dressed in the morning and she answered: 
' Donna Karan once said that if it takes more than 20 minutes to get ready you have some problems with your appearance. I totally agree. I can't understand women who open their huge wardrobes and say, " I have nothing to wear." '

I totally agree with her! 

(part stolen from http://fashion.telegraph.co.uk)




My opinion is that we should all have an eye on her. She is a total trend maker!

Style Inspiration...

Olivia Palermo











Olivia Palermo is an American socialite, model and actress.
She was a cast member of the television
show, The City.
To me she is a natural beauty with great style.
Even if she is out shopping or walking on
the red carpet, her look is always admirable.

Style Inspiration...

Alexa Chung


















Model and tv presenter Alexa Chung, was born on the 5th of November 1983.
In 2007, Alexa came to the attention of the fashion press for her distinctive, unique style. She appears to be on Best Dressed lists, in fashion magazines and on the front row of many fashion shows. 
She also collaborated with designer handbag company Mulberry 
to create a handbag called 'Alexa'!
Chung has supported numerous charities including 'Terrence Higgins Trust',
'World AIDS Day', 'Product Red', 'Green Piece' and many others.
Through interviews i have seen and read of her i get
the idea that she is a down-to-earth girl
who was lucky enough to have the skills and the looks
to be excellent in what she does.
She is definitely an inspiration!
