Pastel Outfit for Spring - How to Style a Pink Coat

Boots & coat vintage store, skirt H&M (old, similar linked), sweater JCrew, bag Rebecca Minkoff, sunnies Aldo (similar linked) Just a quick hello from me today. I will not be writing too much (though I’ve said that before and half a page later, I am still writing heheh). Today, on this gloomy, rainy, gray day, I wanted to share a pretty bright outfit. Yeah, boots are gray but a nice shade of gray, happy not sad J . I had a brunch with the ladies on Saturday for one of my best friends’ birthday so I opted for a feminine and soft outfit. It happened to be a beautiful and sunny day so it worked out perfectly. Skirt is old from H&M, boots and coat are from a consignment store and coat is old Zara.  Recycling clothes is the best, isn’t it? Ciao! Sasha<3

Pastels & Oversized Dressing

Boots Aldo (similar), dress Banana Republic, sweater/dress Zara, bag Rebecca Minkoff ( similar ), sunglasses Aldo I seem to be very much into gray colour this winter. I always loved it but for some reason I have been wearing it a lot more than usual. I guess it’s a great alternative to more common neutral colours such as black and tan/beige. Today I opted for oversized trend. Though it may not be the best choice for my body shape and my height, I still enjoy dressing this way, especially in the winter. Partially because I love the look, partially because I love feeling cozy when it’s cold outside, but also because I put on a few pounds in my waist area in the winter months (all those holidays and yummy foods, mmmm)   so I don’t like wearing anything too tight on a daily basis. It is also not the easiest outfit to photograph. However, things to remember when dressing in oversized trend: your accessories have to be structured and you should opt for a more monochromatic look

Camel Coat & Sneakers - Layering for Cold Weather

Sneakers H&M, jeans unknown old, T-shirt H&M, cashmere sweater The Bay, coat Zara, fur sole vintage, bag Ebay, scarf unknown old, hat Le Chateau, gloves H&M, sunglasses unknown, broach vintage/one of a kind (Toronto Christmas Market show) I read an article in the newspaper not too long ago, about how to keep up appearances. The writer of the article talks about attending a high society type of an event and having been complemented on her Joe Fresh sunglasses. For those who are reading this article but are not familiar with the brand, here is an explanation. It is an affordable brand of clothes and accessories which started off being sold in full service grocery stores but later opened up standalone stores.   The write or the article goes to say that if we are ever in a similar situation, we should resist the urge to share the information that the item we are wearing is not a designer one. Furthermore, it suggests we should never admit to not having money.   Thi
