Michael DePaulo F/W 2015

February 18, 2015,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

The Michael DePaulo collection for F/W 2015 was a stunning compilation of evening and cocktail looks. From red-carpet-ready to fit for a classy night out, his range of design and technique shone through. My personal favorite was the black and white centerpiece, a strapless gown in a contemporary print with opaque panels down the sides….Read More

Here’s Lookin’ at You, Kid

December 10, 2014,

There’s something about classic black-and-white hollywood movies that still seems so glamorous. The drama and romance of noir films from the ’40s and ’50s still get me every time.

Today I’m playing with the idea of an old-school cheerleader. A very preppy, athletic outfit as far as my outfits go. I found this cropped sweater at Forever21 and love the versatility of it. I can easily replace the shirt with leather shorts and the sneakers with heels for a totally different look. I almost…Read More

As I mentioned earlier, I just moved out of the South End to a new apartment in Fenway. I moved from a 3 bedroom with roommates to a studio, so this is the first place that feels completely my own. As promised, here are some shots of my new home base. It’s still in the…Read More
