Blumarine Spring 2014 Ready-to-Wear (Tiny Obsession)

My Dearest Beauties,

I fell in love with this Blumarine's collection. Outfits made of white and lace which are at once so romantic, feminine and "coquette". They just look good on everyone, and everyone can pull them off. Why? Because every girl has a dark side and a sweet doll side.

The collection is sleek and sensual in the most subtle and vigorous way. Sheer fabrics, stone embroidery and lace celebrate your delicacy and femininity and just look beautiful! Just like a romantic summer love can end up being an exuberant adventure; that is how the collection was displayed. It starts off with the innocent and sweet ways of using sheer fabrics and lace; and wraps up with the fierce and OTT ways. The streets are the scene, filled with summer coming to an end, and you're the lead role. You just met your summer love in the coffee shop again, and you're just walking back home wearing white lace. Blumarine makes you the heroine of this scene.

The collection is not receiving the best reviews from high fashion style mags but I think that Blumarine's Anna Molinari delivered the romance she promised and then gave it a twist, the twist that may just make the collection fit several fashion palettes.

What do you think of this collection? Is it a yay or a nay for you?

Much love, 

Samar

Quick Outfit of the Day or Night: Lacey Pants

My Dearest Beauties,

I was planning to wear this outfit in the day time. But the other night, I went out for dinner and drinks. I was super excited to wear this pair of pants so I gave it a go. I thought that if I paired it with a smokey eye and a statement necklace, it would look good. So, that is what I did. I think it turned out pretty good.

I bought this outfit from a boutique close to where I live, called Vanilla Room located in the main road of Doha Aramoun. They carry a really nice selection of Turkish fashion worth checking out.

The smokey eye that I did is the one I once did a pictorial on. Link is below if you are interested.

This is how I convert a simple daytime outfit into a night time look. I always think of the bigger picture. What do you think? What do you use to give your daytime outfit an evening and glamorous feel?

Much love,

Zara Statement Necklaces Lovin'

My Dearest Beauties,

I recently have been loving statement necklaces. They are so versatile, they can elevate a simple outfits, completely, to the next level. Make your LBD look like a completely new dress or even convert your white shirt and jeans daily outfit into a night on the town kind of look. This season, I have been loving how Zara translated their understanding of a statement necklace to the world.  Here are my top three:

Chain Chord and Stone Necklace

Crystal Flower Necklace

Jeweled Flowers Necklace

I actually already picked up the last piece. I will show you how I wear it in an outfit of the day. I love these different and striking pieces, but I would love to know what you think of them. Tell me in the comments below if you would dare to go bold with these lovely necklaces.

Much love,

Quick Outfit of the Day: Almost Camouflage Print and Denim

My Dearest Beauties, 

Camouflage is so in this season and I am loving it. But, some of us ladies like to climb the style ladder very slowly, and wearing army green is a very good first step. You will make up your mind of whether or not you are up to the real deal. I personally looked for the pants that had the most of an army feel to them, pockets every where and thick material. 

As you can see I decided to leave the whole outfit looking very boyish. I balanced out the boyishness and made it feminine with the shoes and the pop of color of the handbag. The mirrored shades are very in and made the look go from all season round to instantly summer season. 

This is a look that you can sport everyday; it is stylish, easy and comfortable. It quickly makes you look very pulled together without looking one bit boring. The best part is that you can upgrade these pants to a camo print and turn heads everywhere. As a last thought for you ladies out there, whether you are 20 or 50, rocking this will leave you looking chic and youthful. 

Wearing:

Zara Soft Denim Shirt (similar here and here)

I personally think this look is neat. Tell me what you think in the comments below.

Much love,
