Metallic

Cropped Out

January 2, 2015,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I don’t wear jeans often but I love the combination of my favorite high waisted pair with a cropped sweater. I avoided ’90s territory by keeping the jeans black and the sweater a subtle metallic. Wedge booties, a knit hat, and a red lip completed the look. A big warm welcome to my new photographer, Jamie…Read More

J’adore Dior

June 27, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I found this Dior top at the SoWa vintage market last week and I’ve hardly been able to take it off. It has a very retro, space-age vibe about it but somehow also fits seamlessly into my current wardrobe. I paired the top with a leather skirt and gladiator sandals for an event with the…Read More

by Celina[zilla_likes]

I can’t ever turn down a good throwback garment. The item in question is this metallic, synthetic, glorious, 80s wrap shirt. I paired it with leather leggings, moto boots, and a beanie to give it an edgy going-out vibe. So if you’ll excuse me, I need to go start livin’ on a prayer because girls just…Read More

I’m normally more comfortable in heels and a skirt than in a sweatshirt and sneakers. But when I saw these gold velcro beauties at Fetysh Shoes and Accessories, I couldn’t resist. I paired them with leather shorts, a throwback sweatshirt, and a beanie for a fun, casual ensemble. My sweatshirt says “Fancy Lady,” because what other…Read More

London in the Library

by Celina[zilla_likes]

You know I couldn’t leave Fashion Week in London empty handed! I bought this dress at TopShop while we were there. They were having a big sale and when I saw this in my size I knew I had to snag it. I love the tweedy texture mixed with the metallic sheen. Paired with my…Read More

Stopping Traffic

These photos are from an amazing shoot I did back in Boston with my usual photographer, Jamie. I’ve been saving them for the right time but I just can’t keep them to myself any longer! Jacket: Thrifted Pants: H&M Shoes: Christian Siriano for Payless Necklace: H&M
