Business Casual

July 2, 2015,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I almost never dress professionally. Since I work in a very creative office (hello, art magazine) we don’t really have a dress code so I rotate cute dresses with jumpsuits, leather pants, and whatever else I’m feeling. But I was immediately attracted to this pencil skirt when I saw it at H&M. It’s a little…Read More

Print All Over

June 10, 2015,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Matching sets are where it’s at this season so naturally I’ve been buying up every one I can find. This blue, floral set is one of my favorites. You might remember I wore the pants separately here. I wore my leather jacket with it to break up the pattern a little and added pink heels for…Read More

Old Fashioned Girl

by Celina[zilla_likes]

I’ve always been drawn to vintage style. Fashion history is interesting in that the garments reflect the time period they were designed in.

I love floral dresses for spring, but I’m constantly trying to get out of the traditional floral rut (see here). This dress does just that. The delicate, wide-spread floral is reminiscent of a Japanese woodblock print (hey, Hokusai) which lends it a more artistic vibe than the typical brunch look. Although the high-low structure isn’t…Read More

One More Day

March 26, 2015,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

We’re at that time of the year when I’m always thinking “Just one more week until spring. Just one more weekend. Just one more day.” Boston is fickle in March and we can easily go from 50 and sunny to two feet of snow. But I keep my fingers crossed that it’ll be here in…Read More

Secret Garden

June 9, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

My default color is black and a lot of my outfits are made with more neutral tones. When I do wear color it’s usually rich jewel tones or dark muted hues. But something about this neon floral really struck me. The style is very sophisticated and transitional. You could wear it to work, to a…Read More
