Black & White & New Peep-Toes

This is not a fresh picture, but I have quite a back log of pictures because I have been so incredibly busy lately!

This dress I bought a year ago and it is InWear. It is super comfortable, long enough not to worry of the hem being lifted by the wind. My new peep-toes are Michael Kors and they are also exremely comfortable, especially on bare feet.

Pretty Ballerinas: Cat Paws

Have you been dreaming of owning that pink cute box with lovely and so pretty ballerinas? I have for some time now and I was lucky enough to grab a bargain on Brandos - these ponyskin leopard ballerinas with patent black toe detail. These ballerinas should be in every girls wardrobe:  they make that nonchalant Parisian look with Breton stripe jersey shirt and a black A-line skirt or jeans. They make that LBD look sexy but elegant. And these very ones have great narrow model with beautiful toe cleavage, so elegant pink inner sole and a practical rubber outer sole. I love my new cat paws! Nice detail - a pink drawstring bag to carry your ballerinas in a bag on a high heel day.

Marilyn, Chanel and Turqouise

Today's outfit was quite blue but NOT boring, IMHO.

Marilyn print t-shirt is from Lindex (sales) and Chanel inspired jacket with golden accents Zara (sales, well-thought purchase). Denim skirt is very old Zara.

Silk & Jersey

Today I was taking care of some things in the city and I was wearing a dress that has been resting in the closet now for 1 year since I bought it from Outnet. The dress is a combination of beautiful raspberry silk and grey jersey and is by Irwin & Jordan. It feels great to wear silk, always. After lunch I took some berry macarons in Stockmann and it felt so luxurious to eat macarons in sunshine in a silk dress.

My jacket is Zara and ballerinas are Stylesnob.

Shoes Check List

Recently I have been cleaning my shoe closet. I admit, I had to actually throw some and sell some and still selling some of them. :) My goal is to have only those which I really use and wear and that go with the maximum number of pieces in my closet. I have now optimized my sandals selection. Next are pumps and ballerinas. Here's what is obviously missing still. :)

All shoes are available at Brandos and are under 200 eur.

Red patent pumps are Bronx, bow peep-toes are Unisa (very good Spanish brand), diamante bow ankle straps are See by Chloe and leopard ballerinas are Pretty Ballerinas.  I am quite sure about the Bronx and Pretty Ballerinas pairs, just need to find time to make an order before they are gone!

Blond

Yesterday I had my hair colored into total blond, which I really did not intend to do but my hairdresser (first time it was a man) got really inspired about making me a blond.  Here is the result: i really hope it settles into a more natural color. But generally I feel very good as a blond.

Back From Spain: Small Treats

Now we are back from Spanish trip and almost all the clothes are washed up even.

This was not one of the most relaxing trips in my life (due to kids) but it was great to see something else, change atmosphere.

I managed to shop quite a lot considering the circumstances. Spain happens to be the home country of my favourite brands: Zara, Zara Home, Massimo Dutti, Tous.

Here are some of the things I planned (!) and bought in this trip: my Tous teddy ring, Zara Home room fragrances and Massimi Dutti leather bow bracelet.
