Flower Child

Good morning everyone! Mondays are always rough, especially coming from a long weekend 

(if you are in US than you are probably still recovering from the heat wave we have been having, 

too much beer and barbecue and some nice July 4th parties).

So let's gather ourselves together and conquer this week. A little breeze wouldn't hurt 

either NY. It's safe to say that this weekend, I stuck to the shortest/lesser amount of clothing 

humanly possibly as to avoid immediate melting.

I love rompers with a serious passion and wipe them out as soon as it gets too hot and I can no longer function to actually put together an entire outfit. Throw in some heels and a flower crown and there you go, a bohemian look worth 20 seconds of prep time.

What do you guys think?

romper: french connection (other options) here// shoes: prabal gurung for target// 

clutch: kate spade// flower crown: The Market NYC pop-up

PS. Flower crows are actually super fun if done right. Pare it with either a romper or a maxi dress/long skirt. But keep it simple and don't overdo with jewelry as it may look too forced on.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Love,
O

Mint & Yellow

Happy Thursday! This was my Easter look from past weekend. We had such amazing weather that lasted one day only, but I decided to take full advantage and go all spring. Colors, colors and more colors. What do you guys think?

Showcasing my new sunnies. I like to invest in classical styles but when it comes to trends,

I tend to just go for fun, colorful and affordable. Case in point, these lovely flower sunnies.

Get them here.

Muse Style-off Campaign + Complimentary Dress

 I am so excited to announce that I have teamed up with Muse Apparel for 

their fun Style-off Campaign. I got the chance to style this beautiful monochromatic dress 

showcasing my individual style and also got to answer some fun questions below.

 If you like how I styled it, please go ahead and vote for me. Best part? If I win, 

I get  to pick one lucky winner who will receive this complimentary dress from 

the amazing MuseApparel.com. 

 Head on over and vote vote vote! The Style-off winner will be announced on Friday!

(1) Why do you love the dress you are wearing:

It makes me feel sophisticated, sexy and romantic all at once

 (a feat not easily achieved).

(2)Why did you start a fashion blog? How did you get it started?

I always had a deep connection with fashion. To me it's a way to express myself, my mood, my life. 

I got a lot of questions from friends, colleagues about what I'm wearing and where I bought a particular 

garment so I finally made the decision to carve a little part of my free time and devote it to what I love most,  

fashion. I never looked back since and often wonder how I lived without one. It really is a part of me.

 (3) I couldn't live without: a blazer.

      How would you describe your style: colorful, feminine chic, with a NYC edge.

      I love Muse Apparel: their dresses are unique, playful, fun and colorful, perfect for a NYC girl.

That '70s Show

 

Happy Monday dolls!

 

It has been far too long since I've worn any type of bell bottom jeans and when

I stumbled on a pair that I used to love, I decided to recreate a modern take on

the ‘70s look. Sometimes it’s nice to go back in time. It brought all kinds of fun

memories from TV shows, one in particular.

 

So here is my nod to the 70s. What do you guys think?

 

On an unrelated note, does anyone have a direct line to Spring? I think it's time

she visit NY, just saying.

Been wanting to wear this blazer for a while now and finally was able to mix

 it with another recent print purchase. I think it gives it a little more sass.

 

On that note, I wish you a fabulous week!

Happy Tuesday everyone!

 

We have had such an amazing weather this weekend that a blazer

was sufficient enough to hit the streets for some brunch.

The sunny rays kept me warm and cozy.

blazer: J. Crew + shoes: J.Crew

jeans:  Zara

tee: A/X

sunglasses: c/o Ray Ban

lipstick: Nars/Schiap

clutch: Kate Spade

Hope your week is off to a great start. I must say that I am strongly disliking and fighting this whole hour forward, time saving thing we got going. Not a fan for sure. It’s still super dark in the morning and I can’t seem to adjust just yet. Is anyone else feeling the same?

 

Love,

O

Sailing away

I came across these pictures when cleaning up my camera and realized

 I never actually posted them. So even though we are in March and 

Nemo is long gone, I decided to post them anyway.

I got this shirt years ago and can't seem to part ways. It's one of those

pieces that can easily be reused any time of the season. I have worn

it with shorts in the summer, skirts in spring, and as you can see in

 the winter with a faux fur vest.  

 

Maybe it’s my sailor childhood fantasies that won’t let me

let go (thanks Captian Hook).    

 

These were taken a day after Nemo and I was one of the few people

brave enough (bored and curious) to venture outside.

It was a fun day to dip into my childhood self and declare a snow day (in heels).

Shirt: Club Monaco

Pants + booties: Zara

Faux Fur vest: Club Monaco

Clutch: Kate Spade Kate Spade

Hat: H&M

Other than a  few times where I almost lost my footing and fell onto the snow (and got a lecture from my guy not to wear heels in snow, yes sir!) it was a really fun day.  Thanks for going down the memory lane with me, as I know we are all anxious to put the winter behind us till next time.

 

Love,

Back to Basics

I have been on such a color/pattern ramp as of late that

I forgot just how much a love jeans.

I go through these stages where I live in my jeans and tees and then all

of a sudden I forget about them for a while. Does that ever happen to you?

 I guess I'm back to my jean days but it was a bit too cold for a tee.

 

I kept it close to home nonetheless, by adding a touch of color and some polka dots.

 

 

Adding on to my Kate Spade clutch collection, is this silly cuteness.

Happy Monday,

Hope your week is off to a great start, March sounds a lot more warmer then February so let’s keep our spirits up. If you are following me on instagram/twitter you know one more personal thing about me as of yesterday. I am a Rangers fan and finally made it to a game this season at MSG and what a game it was!

Scarf Print Swing Dress + GIVEAWAY

I started my day off on a happy (or delicious note) by going to brunch at Harry's Cafe.

 

Happy Monday dolls!

I am so excited to share a project/collaboration I did with Muse Apparel, an online women's boutique that in my opinion has one of the loveliest selections of dresses I have seen in a while.

A nice (educational) stroll through Lower Manhattan was next on the agenda.

The minute I saw their new collection I was blown away and this dress in particular caught my eye from the go. It was so different from anything I've seen and so fun and colorful that I envisioned wearing it all around NYC and I decided to do just that.

 

There are so many dresses that we need for different occasions, work, date-night, day-wear, it's really exhausting to keep track. It's nice to find something that evokes all occasions into one and can be so effortlessly transitioned no matter what you do or where you go.

 

These were too fun to pass on, architectural art at its best.

 

 

And finally made my way to Starbucks for a much deserved snack (their brownies are heavenly)

before heading home. A perfect Saturday in my book. 

Dress: c/o Muse Apparel

Blazer: Club Monaco (loving this one)

Winking Georgie + Nemo

Normal people would probably stay home during the blizzard but I had to come out and see what all the fuss was about. It was actually really fun until about five minutes in when my hair was soaking wet and I got hit with ice on the face far too many times. But it was all in good fun and I retorted back home shortly after (all dinner plans cancelled of course) with my new toy friend - Winking Georgie.

 

Even Nemo couldn't keep me away, too bad my hair had to take one for the team... wink wink
 

 

It seems I was the only one on the streets which I didn’t mind one bit.

 

 

And... it winks! How fun is that?

 

Blouse: BR Monogram (old)

Blazer: Calvin Klein

Coat: BCBG MaxAzria

Happy Monday!

If you are like me, than you are still in awe of yesterday’s Grammy performances. I have to say this year was a huge hit in my opinion (but maybe I say that every year). The collaborations were amazing and the fashion was fierce (hello J. Lo! and Beyoncé was so unexpected).

What was your favorite moment?

Love,

O
