GIRLFRIEND JEANS & PRETTY TILE MOMENTS

GIRLFRIEND JEANS & PRETTY TILE MOMENTS

The pair of jeans I am sporting in today's post is the end result of a very long search for that elusive perfect-fitting pair of girlfriend jeans. Why am I so obsessed with this particular pair? Well, first of all, I love the idea of girlfriend jeans in general. Not quite as loose fitting as boyfriend jeans, but also not as tight as skinnies, basically, girlfriend jeans are a fine example of a perfect balance between the two fits.

In the past, I've been able to find a pair that fits right or a pair that has just the right amount of distressing, but I've never been able to find a pair that combines all of the above. Well, up until now that is:)

For today's look I paired them with a cute embroidered Alexis top and my go-to shoe at the moment - Gianvito Rossi sandals. But I also love the way they pair with a more casual top ( like the one I'm wearing in this post ) and pretty espadrilles ( obsessed with this pair at the moment ). Basically they are a perfect pair of jeans to dress up or down, and I don't know about you guys, but I definitely love being able to wear my favorites in a variety of different ways!

If you’re looking to update your denim wardrobe this specific pair of jeans with cropped hemline and shredded fringe detail is the one for you. It makes for an insanely eye-catching and cool denim look.
And if you pair it with classic trench coat, black mules and round sunglasses you will look effortless and polished at the same time.

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!

If wearing a dress makes you feel slightly out of place (like me), the quickest way to feel comfortable is by teaming it with a pair of cool sneakers. Add some layers (cardigan, coat or whatever you like) and you are good to go!

The easiest way to stand out in a basic ensemble is to add some metallic below the ankles with a pair of statement sneakers. Match them with boyfriend jeans, big scarf and you will have outfit worthy of fashion nods and something that provides comfort.

Adidas Superstar sneakers first arrived on the basketball courts in 1970 and then resurged in the late '90s, today them come in all variations and I picked these in off white suede with copper metal toe. Classic with a twist, they literally make any outfit instantly cooler. I paired them with cropped jeans, camisole top, maxi cardigan and flowing trench coat in pale pink.

No matter the time of year, outfit inspiration is always necessary, so I simply adore pinning/reblogging/ on a daily base since there are too many amazing images. And what do I do when I really like an outfit? I get inspired and recreate my own version. You probably know this gorgeous look very well, so I decided to choose lace blouse instead of the dress and I paired it with cropped jeans and good old black heels.

p.s. let's meet on: Tumblr and Pinterest!

Many excuses and good reasons, hard work and a new job, big projects and sleepless nights caused
this blog-pause for a whole month. But I'm back and I will give you more details about everything in the upcoming posts. Now, I'm ready for a fresh start so Happy New Year! :)

FEELING FESTIVE

FEELING FESTIVE

Though I love Holiday season in general, dressing up is definitely one of my favorite parts! Yet, with so many different events, parties, get-togethers and mixers to attend, choosing what to wear, can get a bit frustrating! So, I though it would be fun do a post covering a few different functions like a casual work party or a family get-together for example, girls night out and finally, a dressier, date-night type occasion.

CASUAL PARTY:

For me, Holiday dressing doesn't automatically imply getting super dressed up! Take festive outerwear for example, a beautiful plaid jacket in a signature Holiday black and red color combo captures the spirit of the season without looking too formal! Perfect for any casual function, not only does it look great but it will also keep you warm and cozy for the rest of the season:) For today's look, I paired my red checked moto jacket with all black pieces and accessories to really make it the focal point of this look! Fun little finishing touch, an oversized plaid blanket scarf to make that red really pop!

GIRLS NIGHT OUT:

A little fun, a little edgy and sexy, a feathered skirt and a tailored blazer are a match made in fashion heaven and a great alternative to a little black dress! Aside from my general love of separates, what makes this particular feather mini & fitter blazer so great is their versatility. You can pair this mini with tailored pieces like I've done for today's look or wear it with a slouchy turtleneck sweater and boots for a slightly more casual vibe. And the same can be said about the blazer! Dress it up with tailored bottoms or down with a pair of jeans and cute loafers. Basically, the possibilities are endless! For today's outfit, I was going for a really dressy, polished look, so I added strappy heels, a fun gold clutch and some beautiful layered jewels in gold.

DATE NIGHT:

Dresses are my achilles heel, and fun, sequin number are my ultimate weakness, especially for the Holidays!:) Love the way sequins catches the light, sparkles and shines in a beautiful rainbow of colors! Once again, a great alternative to a little black dress, sequin dresses add that perfect dose of glitz and glamour and create a really strong impact. Because they are such a statement piece, I prefer to pair them with really simple accessories so that they don't take away from the dress. A cute pair of heels and a simple clutch is really all you need to shine! Finishing touch? A few layered rings, red lips and tousled waves! And voila! A perfect date-night look!
