POTD #6 - Casual Fridays Look

Hey all,
Here's what caught my attention on a Casual Friday at work...the classic combination of  checks, denims and Converse! Since I grew up being heavily influenced by my brother, and tomboyish for a long time, naturally, comfort clothing is my all-time favourite! To me, fashion is comfort + glam in an 80:20 ratio. 

What I LOVE about this look is that it's so easy, yet the tartan checks, the matching footwear (and blue denim, to break the monotony!) make it very stylish!

Try experimenting a little with accessories as well...

With a Neck Piece
If you plan on wearing a basic statement neck piece, make sure to leave the first two buttons open as the collar and the neck piece might look like there's too much happening there. A better way to wear it would be with the collar folded inward.

With a Cuff
Fold up the sleeves to just above the elbow and team it up with a non-blingy cuff.

With a Bracelet
Roll up your sleeve just a couple inches. Charmed bracelets work like a charm, except if you're in a pure, corporate environment, in which case you should stick to delicate pieces as much as possible.

With Earrings
Depending on where you work, choose between hoops and cutesy studs. Avoid danglers or tops.

That's all for now. Until next time!

POTD #4 - Of Sisterhood & Kisses

Fun times...are like these,
the ones you don't want to miss...
Giggles, air kisses and all things flowery,
the cherishing moments shared with a sis! <3

There's something about roses...
Something so awefully sweet!
How dainty they look...frozen in sepia,
on your petite feet!
