Sammydress review. Turquoise dress.

Sammydress review. Turquoise dress.

PL: Hej Kochani, 
druga propozycja na letnia impreze, tym razem sukienka w odwaznym turkusowym kolorze, ze zwiewnego szyfonu od Sammydress. Kroj sukienki jest odpowiedni na tance ale tez np. na beach party, do miasta i na spacer. :) 
Torebke i bransoletke juz widzieliscie tydzien temu, przypasowaly mi do obu kreacji.
Pozdrawiam Was cieplutko i zapraszam do komentowania.

ENG: Today's proposition is the turquoise chiffon dress from Sammydress. Great for some wedding party, walk on the beach or dinner in the City. It is truly comfortable, you can wear it with or without belt and it looks equally good. 

My experience with the store: 

  When you decide to order from Sammydress.com please check carefully the sizes, because they are slightly different from European. Service is great, so if you are not sure, contact them to consult. 

Delivery is efficient. In 2 weeks my order was already home :) and the dress was exactly like I pictured it. True to size and fitting well. 

Prices are quite low, this dress you find for about €12. I believe it's great bargain for it's good quality. 

You should see next items from them on my blog soon, stay tuned! :)

And here I am.
One year later with H&M Conscious Exclusive again, but this time with a special editorial created for Journal.hr and H&M in Zagreb. Thanks to the great crew I ended up looking like a modern princess,  romantic&mysterious at the same time.
This beautiful new collection has been inspired by the archives of the the Musée des Arts Décoratifs located in the Palais du Louvre in Paris and will be launched on Thursday 7th April to coincide with the opening of the hotly anticipated exhibition, Fashion forward - Three centuries of fashion. H&M is delighted to also reveal that Parisian art director Julia Restoin Roitfeld, will be the face of the campaign.

Should I mention how much I love these photos? Be sure to check Journal.hr for more!

"Boho blouses are warm weather essentials" and that's my main excuse mantra for spending all my money on it. Don't blame me. They have tassels, lace, embroidery and they are super cute. And above all, easy for creating spring summer looks. So, if you wanna be a bohemian girl in the city, give an embroidered top a bit of coolness and pair it with a ripped boyfriend jeans, fringe bag and mules. Simple as that! ;)

Simple and practical. Stylish and comfortable. This is my perfect version of day to night look! So, if you're in need of a quick, low-effort from a.m to p.m outfit, pick your favorite pair of jeans, add a silk or lace blouse and light parka/jacket for calming effect. Now you are ready to go, have fun! ;)

It's time for some April favorites:
1. Adidas Superstar 80s clean - a classic sneaker icon with a smooth leather upper and a leather shell toe, what's not to love!
2. Zara blouse - embroidery cotton top is always hippie chic.
3. Coccinelle bag - cute pochette in Saffiano leather, can be worn in many ways.
4. Zara jeans - despite the fact that it's not flattering model at all (unless you have longer legs than my height ;) ) these mid-rise straight long jeans are perfect match if you want to achieve that bohemian, hippie look. Paint spatters and rips are cherries on top!
5. H&M bracelets - cute for everyday.
6. B.U. my secret -for fresh spring mornings and reviving some teenage memories (check out their latest app here if you wanna win some cool things).
As a brand of individuality, excitement and self-expression B.U. empowers every girl with the sense of freedom and multiplicity according to her mood and desires. This fragrance was created for sexy, charming and intelligent young women who are characterized by trust and seductive nature and environment that will enchant you with its mystery. B.U. My Secret is a secret combination of fruity and floral notes which will let you be yourself!
7. Daniel Wellington watch - ideal to be paired with friendship bracelets, hello '70s!

When H&M announced that Olivia Wilde will be the face of H&M’s latest Conscious Exclusive campaign and published very first photos of their collaboration I instantly fell in love with black suit. And here I am, a few months later wearing the same suit with open sleeves, before their official launch thanks to H&M! The organic silk blazer comes with matching trousers and that's how I achieved full tuxedo look. I added mules and earring from the same collection just to spicy it up a little bit. And what I love the most about this suit is the fact that can be worn in many ways (read sneakers). ;)
The capsule collection features organic materials as well as recycled wool, Tencel and recycled sequins showcasing gorgeous prints, elegant draping and cool separates. So save the date, H&M Conscious collection will be available from April 16th in-stores (in Serbia: Knez Mihailova 14-16) as well as online!

Snug Stye | H&M Christmas

Snug Stye | H&M Christmas

Sasha Pivovarova and Joan Smalls in H&M's Christmas Campaign

It felt like it was taking forever, but we’ve finally had our first frost in town! A smattering of icy glitter makes everything prettier, and it makes me think that Mother Nature is on board with this festive dressing thing! Nothing’s more comforting on an icy morning than curling up with a roasting cup of coffee, snug as a bug in beautiful knitwear. H&M has nabbed a supermodel cast, plus Lady Gaga,  to show us just how great knitwear can be worn for the season. 

Read on for snug styling tips, and a very special Christmas pairing . . . 

Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett in H&M's Christmas Campaign

Whether like Gaga you’re going XXL on the jumper, and cosying up to Hollywood legend Tony Bennett (because duh! Wouldn’t he be the BEST Christmas carolling partner ever?!), or like Supers Joan Smalls and Sasha Pivivarova you’re nabbing H&M’s awesome OTK booties, there’s a myriad of ways to style up your knits. 

Oh, and thank you H&M styling team for OK’ing snug party coverups - how gorgeous does Miss Smalls look in her cream faux fur and white jumpsuit combo?! All. Over. It. 

In the spirit of, um, high spirits, here’s H&M’s awesome Christmas video featuring our favourite Supermodels, Gaga and Tony Bennett singing their hearts out. I defy anyone not to feel throughly festive and ready to party following this!

Have you guys got your party outfits sorted yet? Are you lusting after H&M’s cream knits as much as me?!

Hope you're having a great weekend guys!

Love,

Red, Black & Glitter | H&M Christmas

Red, Black & Glitter | H&M Christmas

Sasha Pivovarova & Joan Smalls in H&M's Christmas campaign

Controversy is often caused around the following: the date we are allowed to discuss Christmas. People, let's get this straight . . . The Elgin Avenue is a Christmas safe zone! As far as I am concerned, all is fair game past November 1st. 

November 1st?! Fellow festive lovers, we are just as keen as you to get this glitter ball rolling . . . !  

Nothing gets me in the Christmas mood more than perusing stores, their Christmas offerings and their accompanying festive campaigns. H&M comes up trumps time and time again with its glowing, sparkly, super-model-starring campaigns, and all the good Christmas vibes (and shopping lusts!) that accompany them.

I for one am totally on board with the red, black and glitter styling in H&M's Christmas campaign this season. That tuxedo, the perfect drop earrings, the ultimate red errrythang . . . !  And yes I would happily takes tips from supermodels Sasha Pivovarova and Joan smalls on wrapping those perfect presents. 

You can check out the full H&M Christmas collection here. 

What's caught your eye? 

Have an awesome (merry!) day all!

Love,
