Be My Valentine

February 14, 2017,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Happy Valentine’s Day! I hope it’s filled with soft fabrics, love notes, and pounds on pounds of chocolate. I often have trouble choosing a V-day look because it’s February which means snowy and freezing in Boston. This year I’ve found a happy medium with a silk dress and thigh-high boots. Warm enough, but still flirty…Read More

Backless Beauty

December 22, 2016,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

It’s the final countdown to the holidays and sartorial expectations are high. Last week I posted this glitter jumpsuit as a comfy, contemporary alternative to the traditional dress. My next party look is this black lace dress that has an Isabel Toledo vibe but only costs $27 at Primark. Dress: Primark, Shoes: H&M, Rings: Assorted…Read More

A third of the way through December, and my holiday shopping is in full swing. Last week I stopped in at Macy’s to pick up a few gifts.

With many sites like this, the descriptions are misleading, the shipping time is long, and the sizing is unusual. Zaful had none of these flaws. I received my package in less…Read More

July 21, 2016,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I’m all about utilizing garments in new and interesting ways. So when I found this maternity shirt in a dressing room, I immediately thought it would make a nice dress. I made a few alterations to take in the sides and accessorized with a leather harness to give the flowy ensemble some edge. Perks of…Read More

Jaded

July 5, 2016,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

In my second styling of this jewel-tone dress, I’ve kept it in its original form, but I added a silver choker necklace for some edge. This look could be dressed up or down for the office, date night, or lunch with friends. Best of all, it’s comfortable and easy. A one-stop-shop for a pulled together…Read More
