Blushing for Blush

My Dearest Beauties, 

I thought I would share my love for blush color on everything with you and maybe inspire you to try it out. It is a fun way to go neutral without going for timeless whites or creams. Just like whites, blush shades are very flattering against most skin tones and so versatile as well.

I mean it isn't royal blue or a Valentino red but it is a staple that isn't oh so typical.

Do you think you can replace your usual cream and white with this subtle shade of pink?

Trending Shoes Obsession - Sophia Webster

My Dearest Beauties,

I love watching E!, the tv channel. They have a fun show called The Fashion Police, I love the fashion but I really enjoy watching the show because of how funny Joan Rivers is. Anyway, I had spotted these shoes on some celebrities, among them Rihanna and I thought they are the coolest pair of shoes I've spotted recently. On one of the episodes they talked a bit about them and right there and then I cleared my doubts.

They are candy colored and have a fun stylish design that seems like it would be comfortable to walk in. The pair is actually called the Riri Leather Sandal.

If you live in Lebanon and would like to get your hands on these babies or any other Sophia Webster design then head over to the Plum store in Down Town.

What are your thoughts on these shoes? Tell me in the comments!

Much love,

The Coat Uniform for Winter 2014 - Checked/Checkered Coats

My Dearest Beauties,

I wanted to share this new trend that I am kind of obsessing on with you. Checked coats are so in and so chic in my opinion. I have been doing some online shopping but haven't actually bought the piece yet. They can easily transform a very simple and rather mundane outfit. For that reason I thought I would put some interesting pieces together and let you make up your mind on the fun checkered trend.

Make sure to press on the captions below every picture if you want to know more about the coat.

Checkered pieces are in whether they are coats, pants, tops, skirts, scarfs, you name it! I think that a checkered coat is a fun and easy way to update your wardrobe and make it fun. What are your thoughts on this trend? YAY or NAY? 

Much love,

Leather Trend is Going Strong For Fall & Winter 2013

My Dearest Beauties,

We've seen leather going strong the past couple of seasons, and it seems like it is only getting stronger. You can always find at least one piece made of leather (other than the must have biker leather jacket) in almost all collections out there.

I can see why it is so loved! Leather makes you look fierce in an understated kind of way. You add edge without having to go crazy. Be careful though, because over doing might be too much. One leather piece in your outfit of a subtle and neutral color will make you stylish in a snap. I say, a subtle and neutral color because that is the best way to start, but if you already are on the band wagon then experiment, what's stopping you?

Below I will show you some of the picks I made from the lovely online shopping website Net-A-Porter. The captions under the images are direct links in case you want to see more details on the pieces.

Quick Outfit of the Day: Sunday Funday

My Dearest Beauties,

Sunday is all about being comfy. Comfy doesn't have to be boring with the trends of nowadays. I love the innovative cuts in which we find pants, shorts, jeans, skirts and even skorts (skirt + shorts). It is easy to make a statement when you choose a pair that is flattering on your figure and different to the vision. I wore this look yesterday afternoon for drinks and Sunday funday with my special one.

Please bear with me, I am in love with denim shirts and strappy sandals. They are just so versatile and they easily make a lot of simple pieces look fabulous.

American Eagle Denim Shirt

Zara Skorts

Calvin Klein Sandals 

Louis Vuitton Sully Bag

Dior Vintage Sunglasses

What are your thoughts on skorts? 

Much Love,
