THE ACCESSORY UPDATE: SQUARE-TOED SHOES

October 14, 2019

I would have never thought that I would give square-toed shoes a chance to wear them again. When it comes about shoe trends this season, square-toed shoes are a hit this season. Almost every designer is bringing back the ’90s shape of shoe, but the newest versions are striking bold.

Lately we have seen lot of ankle boots, mules, sling backs, and strappy sandals feature kitten heels, almost all kind of square toes — all styles on the runway and streetstyle fashion. What was considered “mom shoes” before, now is “hot”. I am obsessing over the Daniel Lee’s new collection for Bottega Veneta. Those shoes are on my radar since they were launched, and the Bottega Veneta SS’20 shoe collection is to die for.

Here I collected the best square-toed shoes, and the most beautiful models for fall, winter and spring’20.

THE LOOK UPDATE: OXFORD SHIRT

October 13, 2019

The Oxford shirt goes back into the 19th century, but in Scotland. Named after the Oxford University, this shirt made it to America in a short time, where the college students embraced it. Inspired by the Polo style, Oxford shirts were a must-have piece, since I was a little. Like blazers, classic jeans, trench coats, moccasins and loafers, the Oxford shirt belongs to the classics. Those who know me from the school and university time, know that the classic pieces were the essentials of my everyday style.

Whether for the office or afterwork drinks, an Oxford shirt is an excellent option for everyday. Surprisingly this season as well as on SS 20 runway shows, Oxford shirts were seen everywhere. From soft pastel shades to pinstripes, oversized and fit styles, there are numerous choices to invest on few Oxford shirts which you can wear on every occasion.

How to Wear an Oxford Shirt

For formal events, opt for a classic white Oxford shirt.
For parties, wear an oversized white Oxford shirt like a dress, and accessorize it with a waist belt.
Tuck your shirt in for more formal events and untuck for casual events.
Wear pale pink or baby blue Oxford shirts with blue jeans.
White button up shirt with navy or camel chinos.
Wear modern Oxford shirts with pencil skirts, chinos, tailored trousers or tailored shorts.
Don’t be afraid to mix colors up and spice up your outfit.

MY NIGHTTIME SKINCARE ROUTINE

October 9, 2019

I have been taking care of my skin since a young age. In my twenties, I never had skin problems; I just needed extra moisturizer for my dry skin, et voilà, glowing skin all-year-long! But this changed when I got thirty. Not just that a moisturizer wouldn’t help me to get the glow, but I had to face my worst breakouts ever. With the help of the right skincare products and home remedies I could heal my skin. Since then my nighttime routine is the number one priority before I go to bed.

FASHION MEMO: 20 STYLISH PRINTED DRESSES TO ADD TO YOUR FALL WARDROBE

October 7, 2019

Fall is the perfect season to wear prints — especially, printed dresses. Whether you opt for floral prints, polka dots, or animal-print trend. There is almost everything for everyone’s taste. When it comes about prints, I love classic stripes, as well as unique painted dresses like this Printed Tie Collar Maxi Dress.

There are versatile ways how to wear a printed dress in fall. My favorite way to style a printed dress is with round-toe, square-toe or with chunky boots. When topping off your dress during chilly fall days, you can combine it with a classic denim jacket or for more elegant look, with a classic long blazer.

I’ve collected 20 best printed dresses for fall that you won’t be able to resist:

10 FAVORITE PODCASTS TO ENHANCE YOUR LIFE AND CAREER

September 10, 2019

Over the past couple months, I’ve been getting so much into podcasts. I never thought I’d ever become a podcast person. Although I read lot of self-improvement, spiritual healing, sociology, psychology and career books, sometimes I prefer to listen to podcasts. It’s something different than books or watching TV and I love learning about new things in different ways. Inspirational podcasts give me another level of happiness and I consider it as a #SelfCare time, when I need to switch-off and motivate myself for new things.

JOMO: JOY OF MISSING OUT

August 28, 2019

In the beginning of the 2016 I was almost experiencing a burnout, which made me very unhappy from the inside. I used to attend every event, meeting people everyday, working non-stop, traveling a lot, going to the fashion weeks etc. I became literally like a robot, and everything became very static. I came to realize that nothing can make me happy, if I don’t fix my inside first. Slowly, I learned to say ‘NO’ and instead of events or meetings, I started to take care of myself and do more grounded things. As I no longer have FOMO “Fear Of Missing Out”, I am much happier and content with the person I am today. Therefore I want to share few tips, how you can also practice the art of JOMO:
