Casual Corner

August 15, 2016,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

You can always tell when I haven’t planned my outfit in advance, or if I’ve been out late the night before. I have a tried-and-true system for comfortable outfits that are still functional and work appropriate. I pair leggings, oftentimes a thicker, trouser-inspired legging, with a long blouse and add my tied-up flats or some…Read More

Lady Power

by Celina[zilla_likes]

This sweatshirt is another feminist winner from Wicked Clothes. In homage to the tough ladies that inspire me every day I styled it with an edgy choker and leather jacket. We shot this look at the Fairmont, I love the way the elegant surroundings contrast with the rough-and-tumble look. The bonus of this outfit? It’s a…Read More

But the most difficult transition is the wardrobe. These offices require a much more professional business casual dress code. I’m used to rolling into work in leather pants and…Read More

by Celina[zilla_likes]

The temperatures are slowly dropping here in Boston and I’m taking every opportunity I can get to wear cozy fall clothes. This is another sweater turned dress from Primark. It’s so comfortable but has an easy chicness about it. I paired it with heeled booties but it could just as easily be styled with stilettos for…Read More

Outside the Box

October 5, 2015,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I approach every article of clothing with an open mind. It’s a strategy that has worked well both in thrifting and regular shopping. If you just look at a dress as a dress then that’s all it’ll ever be. The best way to be creative with your wardrobe is to think outside the box. One…Read More
