The Value of Dressing Up

May 12, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

There’s nothing quite like the feeling of putting on a favorite piece of clothing. Maybe it’s the dress that always makes you feel sexy, maybe it’s the flats that are chic but so, so comfortable, maybe it’s the snapback that gives your look some street style. Putting on that garment is like putting on a…Read More

Lady on Lady

April 25, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I love clothes that are a little unexpected. Styling something that seems a little extravagant is always a fun challenge. I was immediately drawn to this dress. It’s not quite an homage to Frida Kahlo (no eyebrows!) but it’s a really interesting piece. I styled it with booties, a leather jacket and a red lip…Read More

Knee high gladiator sandals are going to be a huge trend this summer. Now that a few celebrities have been seen wearing them, they’re flooding into the mass market. I purchased these a couple weeks ago and they are officially my favorite summer sandal. I styled these beauties with a white lace dress and floral…Read More

Lady in Blue

by Celina[zilla_likes]

This blue jacquard dress is one of my go-to pieces. It’s so flattering and can be changed to embody almost any image. I can wear it with a leather jacket and cage heels for some edge, or pearls and a blazer for an interview. Dress: H&M Tights: TJ Maxx Shoes: Payless Necklace: Forever21 Photos by Jamie Kaplan.
