Princess

Equipped in Organza

May 10, 2021,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Spring has been slow to get moving this year and I’m trying to force the issue by wearing my springiest outfits. At least I’ll be bringing some color into things! This pink and yellow organza dress is a fairytale dream. Not only does it look elegant and beautiful – it’s incredibly comfortable. I shot these…Read More

Urban Fairytale

December 13, 2017,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

When we shot this look I told my friend and photographer Rebecca Gatto that I imagined the outfit on a princess who had wandered out of her fairytale and into the city. The sweet pink midi skirt provides a subtle foil to the alluring off-the-shoulder top (cashmere!). The Rose Kennedy Greenway has an urban oasis feel…Read More

by Celina[zilla_likes]

This outfit feels so classic to me, with the black and white color scheme and the midi hem length. I’ve updated it with a crop top and tulle skirt but there’s something ever elegant about this combination. Shirt: TJ Maxx, Skirt: Forever21 (similar here), Shoes: Tahari, Belt: Thrifted, Rings: Assorted Photos by Jenni Heller.  …Read More

I love mixing hard and soft and in this outfit in particular I wanted to add an edge to my usual tutu. I was envisioning kind of a princess-goes-bad look, sneaking out of her tower for a midnight rendezvous. Also I simply can’t turn down a good crop top. Top: Forever21, Skirt: Thrifted & DIYed,…Read More

Modern Cinderella

February 3, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I think the reason I was so initially attracted to this dress is because it looks a lot like the Disney Cinderella dress. Growing up she was my favorite princess and this dress with the light blue color, black accents, and floaty hemline is like an updated version of hers. Even as a quasi-grownup in…Read More

Tutu Time of Year

November 6, 2013,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

One of the many reasons fall is my favorite time of year is because it’s tutu season. In preparation for Halloween all the stores start putting out their costumes and that means a whole lot of tutus are available. I try to focus more on the fact that I can find them in places other…Read More
