Esteban Cortazar for Exito

How amazing is this collection by Esteban Cortazar for Exito. I can't believe Exito is an affordable line in Colombia like H&M.

The only yellow item in my wardrobe...

I am not a very big fan of yellow color but this skirt i love maybe because of the touch of green, amazing cut/layers, and super comfy material. The funny part is the skirt actually is huge like maybe xl size or something like that…but i believe you can make everything work so with a fab belt it becomes perfect high-waist skirt :)
My clutch is from zara which i love but I wanted to glam it up a little bit so I added oversize brooch to it.
When it comes to bracelets most of the time i go with “the-more-the-better-principle”
p.s.finally found some time to upload my 3 looks :)



Casual Bohemian Inspired Look

I love free-flowing fashion that you can achieve with maxi dress or maxi skirt, super comfortable and boho-chic at the same time. In order to make it little bit different I like to add glamorous vintage elements like this fabulous necklace.



Something beautiful never goes out of fashion

I believe the best pieces in my wardrobe are the ones I have from my mother and my grandmother. In this picture I am wearing a skirt which my mother used to wear when she was my age, how amazing is that, it is just a proof that something beautiful never goes out of fashion. My inspiration for this look is 50s/60s style.

Nobody captivated the world like Marilyn Monroe...




For me she was not just legendarry blonde woman, she was a wise woman and the world never saw that. Here are some of her quotes, which are my favorite….

"I've never fooled anyone. I've let people fool themselves. They didn't bother to find out who and what I was. Instead they would invent a character for me. I wouldn't argue with them. They were obviously loving somebody I wasn't."
"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go. Things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they go right. You believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart, so that better things can fall together."
"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."
"Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring."
"A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left."
"I’m pretty, but I’m not beautiful,I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love."
"Men are so willing to respect anything that bores them."
"Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition"
"Dogs never bite me. Just humans."

"Industrie" magazine


As i blogged couple of month ago, I am dying to read the magazine named "Industrie" which is as their website states "the first and only media title dedicated to presenting an independent, in-depth look at the fashion industry, going behind the scenes to chronicle the personalities, stories and defining moments in the world of fashion.Industrie aims to shift focus away from current collections and trends and provide a considered insight into the culture of fashion. Industrie documents the individuals who influence fashion and critically examines the ideas which shape it."

I really like the concept of the magazine because when it comes to fashion I am more interested in "intelectual" side of it meaning the process of creating something beautiful, the inspiration behind it, the input of the team, photographer, stylist, make up artist, and the business side of it as well. As you can see from the youtube video they have interviews featured with some of the if not top of the leading people in fashion industrie. I am really excited about the interview with Natalie Massenet the creator of Net-a-porter. I mean the woman created an enterprise with an annual turnover of GBP120 million, how can you not listen to her?

But unfortunatly couldnt find it in Dubai :( so I guess I just have to order it online.
