The Raven Dress: Stevie May Black Maxi

I'm addicted to Winners. The thrill I feel entering the store can be compared to opening a gift - you can only guess what's in there; the rush of curiosity every time I pass by the store makes me check all locations in my neighbourhood a couple times a week if not everyday. It's not just shopping, I would even call it hunting. Finding that one special hidden gem is much more exciting than just shopping in regular stores or online.

Meet my new FabFind - Stevie May Maxi Dress. I called it The Raven Dress. The lace on top of the dress imitates ruffled feathers and in combination with flared silhouette creates this magic movement as you walk. That's a very fabulous find indeed.

esCape: Zara Black Cape Outfit

I’m a big fan of cape coats. There is something special about wearing a cape - a sort of "coat casually draped over the shoulders” look or maybe even an allusion to Disney Princess outfit! None of the Princesses wore tailored jacket, puffer coat or parka, right? 

Jumping into Fall

Even though I still can't believe summer is over, a part of me is happy that fall is finally here. Every season is beautiful in its own way, but fall has its truly unique charm. I'm excited like a kid about pumpkins, leaves changing colours, cozy blankets, those precious warm days when you can still have Sunday brunch on the patio and...layering! Yes, fall is the season for layering - playing with jackets, blazers, vests not only keeps us warm, but also makes any outfit more interesting. For example, my new H&M dress looks perfectly fine on its own, but by adding vest on top and a couple accessories I created a more complex and personalised look. Layer up and stay warm  - it's already fall, after all.

P.S. Vest, hat and shoes are my recent finds from Winners :)

Boohoo White Maxi Beach Dress

Hi there! This summer vacation I'm visiting my family back home in Ukraine. In the meantime, I took a couple days to enjoy some sunshine on the seaside. I've just come back from Turkey - relaxed and happy with a bunch of pictures and memories in my luggage. This post is dedicated to one of my favorite beach looks from this holiday. 
Being a big fan of dresses generally, I absolutely admire my Boohoo beach dress that I found on ASOS (on sale now). This dress is a perfect outfit for a hot day on the beach - it is transparent enough to create a feminine sexy look, and at the same time covers all areas that need to be covered to avoid not only direct sunlight but also prying eyes. 

Garden Leaves: Kate Spade Midi Skirt

May is my favorite month of the year. It's warm enough but not exhaustingly hot - the best time to enjoy the outdoors and... renew your summer wardrobe. Let's say bye-bye to black sweaters and embrace the summer season with floral prints, bright colours and eye-catching accessories. In this post I'm going to share with you my recent find from Winners - Kate Spade New York "Garden Leaves" print flare skirt. I fell in love with its truly spring pattern in a bold Kelly green. To spice up the look I added my Michael Kors backpack in a juicy watermelon colour.  Hope you like it :) 

Pearls for Girls

There is nothing more elegant and feminine than pearl accessories: pearl necklace, earrings, bracelet...and skirt! These little pearls on my velvet skirt helped to create a very simple, yet fun and  oh-so-girly look. Generally, I'm not a big fan of pink, however these fuchsia beret and lipstick boosted my mood and made a grey February day a little brighter.                                                  

Urban Turban: Zara Velvet Hat

Turban is one of those statement pieces that makes the whole outfit work around it and can transform even the most ordinary look into something nontrivial. I found this velvet turban hat on sale at Zara a few weeks ago. Surprisingly, it works equally well for a casual jeans outfit and an elegant evening one.

In this post I would like to show you how I played around with turban, combining it with my BCBGMAXAZRIA knitted faux tibetan lamb fur vest (thank you WINNERS!) and velvet pants. Large earrings and bold lipstick added a nice touch of glam to the look.
