Lazy Saturday

It's cold outside, but I'm hot inside. Meaning I haven't left my comfy PJs yet and I'm indulging in some hot coffee, while doing some weekend reading. I haven't quite had any time to relax this week, even if I'm enjoying a very long holiday, so this Saturday afternoon is probably going to be the victim of manichure tryouts and Skype conversations. As for the outfit I'm presenting you, is something I captured in pictures yesterday. I'm very sorry I hadn't got the idea of taking the pics earlier, because, as you can see, the light isn't very helpful in surprising the details.
I chose to wear the garter tights because I somtimes crave for a little sexy and I guess that in the middle of the winter, this is probably the best way to give a hint of hotness ^_^ . As for the rest, I wore knit on knit, the perfect combo for hitting the snow, accesorised with some golden accesories.
Another thing I really want to talk about is the background. Though it might not seem a fabulous choice, it's my favorite decor. Don't ask me why, I still haven't figured it out!

Have a lovely Saturday and don't forget to read some good pages!

Marvel of Light

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
C. S. Lewis

As I said yesterday, I am in love with starting over. As much as I sometimes crave for indulging in a sedentary daily routine, usually I adore a new challenge. This is why, this year, I've challenged myself to attain everything I've wanted and dreamed of so far and haven't quite got a grasp on. I've learned some lessons in the past couple of months and here's my advice to you:

You might touch your dreams over night, but you might never. Unless you work for it, one step at a time, until you can embrace the true taste of success.
For me, the small steps refer not only to my blog and this year, as you can see, I'm going steady, posting on a schedule and keeping my promises. I am going to rely on my creativity and whit and not allow my procrasting nature to take over.
So here it is, my first outfit post of the year, showcasing what I wore for a small NYE party. Also, in these pictures you can better observe what I did to my hair! I chose to dye my hair according to the ombre trend, mostly because I felt the need to change something about my looks and because it's not high maintenance.

Stay tuned for a couple of more changes/surprises/love!

Milestones

“A milestone passed, new things begun, dreams as shining as the sun, a goal achieved, a victory won! 

This is what probably describes best my feelings at the moment. I am proud to announce my first glory in fashion-blogging matters: I have succeeded in posting for 100 times!
My tendency to keep things going is usually not so rewarding, since it doesn't quite exist, but this time, I am proud I have stuck with my passion for fashion long enough to reach this milestone.
And to celebrate,I decided to create one of my most quirky outfits: mixing animal print with leather shorts and knitter sweaters might not seem my usual go-to dress-up, but it certainly has a special relationship with my soul. Sparkly clutches have a way of saying "Heya, handsome!" to old, worn-out UGG boots like not other.
Embellished duck rings and knitted leather bracelets are funky and make my hands smile, if not for the chipped off metallic blue nailpolish on my fingernails .
All in all, what I wish for from now on is that I reach my 1000th post milestone, my 100000th and so on. I wish for my little baby to prosper into a world where mixing my heart with my closet is not only tricky, but amazing.

All that glitters

All that glitters is not gold. Sometimes, the brightest diamond is in fact a really well polished piece of cubic zirconium, but everything that is shallow will never take notice of something that hides beneath a well-trimmed surface, believing that if what they see is beautiful, what they don't see will not hurt them.

In fact, in a society reigned by consumerism, like society is nowadays, more and more individuals tend to give value to what is not valuable and depreciate the entire beauty and meaning of life.

The world's tea party now stands divivded into two big and well separated categories : the shallow and the deep.

Will you be deep? Will you join the dark side?
