Suiting Up

by Celina[zilla_likes]

I put together this unconventional suit with my favorite leather shorts and a pastel pink blazer. The pairing is an edgy take on professional with a casual graphic tee underneath. Blazer: Forever21, Shorts: OASAP, Shirt: Purchased in Amsterdam, Shoes: Tahari, Belt: Forever21, Bracelet: Kendra Scott Photos by Jenni Heller.

I first saw a leather baseball cap on a fashion blog three months ago, and I’ve been searching for one ever since. I love the edgy/athletic vibe it has, adopting a sporty trend into a fashion context. You can see more of my athletic inspired outfits here, and here. Hat: ASOS, Skirt: H&M, Top: H&M,…Read More

1) Coco looking very affronted when I wouldn’t give her my steak dinner. 2) Some fabulous new arm candy I can’t wait to style. 3) Another shot of the gorgeous heels gifted to me for my birthday. 4) The Estella boots from the Christian Siriano for Payless collection. Obsessed. 5) Some adorable polka dot sticky notes, another birthday gift. 6) New bag, also from the…Read More

The Shoe Files: Flats

August 17, 2012,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

If you’ve ever stopped by my blog, or can remotely claim to know me, or have even just seen me on the street, you know I’m all about the shoes. With a mother who has a weak spot for stilettos and a father who (though he won’t admit it) appreciates a nice shoe, I was…Read More
