finally I managed to take some quick outfit shots, it's been really hectic lately, both @ home and @ work...we're repainting/redecorating one of our rooms, preparing for the kid, leaving everything figured out at work before the loooong maternity leave, etc...

please excuse the crappy photos (I really don't look this sick:))) ), they are taken with a small video cam in the unhealthy neon light from work, so...:D:D

















Composition:
Dress: Marius Musat
Cardigan: See by Chloe'
Boots: Burberry
Earrings: Debenhams, gift from my bf (I can't get around to calling him 'husband' just yet :)) )
Einstein toy: snatched from a coworker for this shoot:D















And speaking of Einstein, Ari Seth Cohen from Advanced Style ( one of my top 5 fashion-related blogs to watch) just posted today about this Einstein looking man one of his collaborators photographed:
I love this simple yet exquisite color combo...

R.I.P Alexander McQueen

[Later Edit] ...better than words:

asia on my mind

I was sorting my photos of note and I just found this most inspiring image ever , that I cannot believe I had forgotten of... I love everything about this outfit, the colours, starting with the bright red lashes, the prints (notice how the horizontal stripes on the stockings are re-interpreted on the dress, and how the polka dots on the dress match the ones on the veil) , the textures, the kitschy rhinestones on the purse, ...you get it :D:D ...the perfect mix and match


p.s. do you think that I can still wear similar ensembles now that I'm almost a mum :D? I say hell yeah !!! ...I can hardly wait for my first PTA meeting :)))))

p.p.s I don't remember where I came across this image, if you happen to have a clue please drop a comment, so I can credit it properly :)

ze Picker

I found these items on ze Picker , a rather new site that updates daily with posts on the coolest internet finds. What I like about this particular selection is that they were posted consecutively, and you can actually make up a full outfit out of them :D. Funny coincidence ;)).Keep your eye on it, I see it has a lot of potential.


















p.s. one more non-fashion-related pick , that I found interesting: Le Cool city guide

showing off

..my huge belly :D ...I have to admit I survived more than 2 thirds of the pregnancy without buying anything new (except for a pair of boots, but that doesn't count ;)) ) , I think that's truly an accomplishment :)))) . I did have a raid in my mum's closet however, and stole some stuff, but I'll return those once I'm no longer in need of loose-fitting items :D.

So....hooray for me and my wallet/bank account :)))!!!!

snow recovery

Considering that lately I've been getting around to wear either hiking boots or wellies (rigid snow vs. melted snow :D), I took advantage of the warm weather last week to dress a little more photo-worthy. Plus it was my first week@work after the winter vacation, so there you have it..


Composition:
Dress: no tag, bought in New York (it was my favourite dress for a long while, and still is in my top 10 )
Vest : Strass Exclusive Brand (from Paris)
Blouse: random white cotton blouse
Wellies: Burberry
Jewelry: bracelet -a gift from my sister , cross pendant necklace-I've had for >10 years, round pendant necklace- a gift from mum

hmm...it seems I can't properly load images just now...Google does have a slow recovery :D:D

[later edit] yeeey...I beat the system :))

A detail shot of the bracelet, I love it:

first of all

...a happy New Year to everybody !!!

...and an enchantment for the music-lovers (my most recent obsession:D ):
