Spring-ing into Action

March 22, 2021,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Spring is coming! With warmer temps rolling in and buds appearing on trees I’ve been feeling uplifted. And my wardrobe has too! Florals and floaty skirts and dresses are slowly filtering back into my repertoire. What’s the first thing you want to wear this spring? Shirt: SheIn, Skirt: Charlotte Russe, Flats: SheIn, Belt: Goodwill, Book:…Read More

Clash of the Colors

June 16, 2020,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Pink and red is a pairing that people tend to avoid. It’s one of those things, like pattern mixing, that requires the right pieces to pull off. There may also be some Valentines Day associations at play. I loved mixing the two colors in this playful look with a bold pink top and red tulle…Read More

Warm enough, but still flirty…Read More

by Celina[zilla_likes]

I found this set at the SoWa Vintage Market (at the One Man’s Trash booth) in the South End and fell in love with it immediately. I call this look Barbara Bush meets 50 Shades of Grey. To bring the set into the modern age I shortened the hem on the skirt and paired it…Read More

Budget Babe

by Celina[zilla_likes]

It doesn’t have to cost a lot of money to look good. This romper was $8 at Primark. I paired it with a faux-leather jacket and chic smoking-slipper flats for an upgraded look. The rich color of the one-piece and the gold accents already give it a more expensive vibe, and when paired with sophisticated accessories…Read More
