Hello, darling’s! The weather in Chicago has been so crazy! One day it’s 70 degrees and sunny – the next it’s 50 degrees and rainy! Hence I have a difficult time getting dressed – but (!) I decided to put my frown upside down & challenge this weather with bright colors! So, I decided to wear my bright pink skirt on this cloudy day! It lifted my mood immediately and I must admit: I love love love this skirt! It’s so much fun while twisting it!

What lifts your mood during cloudy/rainy days?

Hello, love bugs! Glad you stopped by! Today I’m wearing more of an edgier look (at least for my ‘standards’)! I found this awesome crop sweater at Burlington Coat Factory while browsing for golf equipment with my hubby – but as usual – I somehow ended up in the women’s department (LOL)! And there was this adorable Homiès sweater that literally called my name!

What do you think? Is this look a ‘yay or nay’? As always, I would love to hear from you!

Featured on NY Magazine’s ‘The Cut’

press2014

I am SO excited to announce that I was featured on New York Magazine’s  ‘The Cut‘ . They showcased me in my Pleated Midi Bubble Skirt (which I have designed myself!) on their “Best of the Week’s Style Bloggers: Roomy Skirts” section and I couldn’t be more honored and flattered (they featured a total of 23 bloggers)! It truly is a dream come true (by the way I’m writing this shaking!)! This being said: I’m very happy that I decided to blog again because fashion is  – and always was – my passion!

Check out the full slideshow on ‘The Cut’ here.

Cat Eye Sunglasses

Meow, ladies! Cat eye sunglasses have long been a celebrity favorite among Hollywood A-listers, ranging from royalty including Marilyn Monroe to Audrey Hepburn, to fashion celebs including Nicole Richie to Kourtney Kardashian now! I’m totally swooned by shading my eyes with this flattering style, hence I ordered 2 & 3 on ASOS (on sale!) myself!

If you’re on the prowl for your ideal style – be sure to visit ASOS!

Have a great weekend, lovelies!

Happy Throwback Thursday! Today I’m sharing the very first pictures I started blogging with (back in 2010) with you, and guess what? I am also 1 month pregnant with my (now 2 year old) son in those photographs! I was just going through my computer (every now and then I like to look at old pictures) and found these – hence, I simply had to share them with you!

Do you have pictures you’re fond of?
