Rings

Face Off

December 17, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

You guys know I love a quirky print, and this stained glass dress is one of my favorites. I call it my “art history” dress because so much of my art history study has centered around religious artworks. The last time I wore this dress was at Notre Dame. Yesterday I took it for a spin…Read More

Sitting Pretty

November 24, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

My default outfit for the summer was a breezy dress and a pair of flats. But with the weather getting increasingly cold I’ve had to find a new uniform. The winter always brings out the darker colors in my wardrobe, and this all black ensemble fits the bill perfectly. To keep the monochrome look interesting I…Read More

As usual I’ve quadruple booked myself for the summer months. I’m working full time, in negotiations for a second full time gig, overseeing a few lit classes at Emerson, and, of course, maintaining the blog. If you see a girl running around Boston in heels, furiously checking her watch and drinking a coffee bigger than…Read More

Easy Living

July 31, 2013,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

It’s summer time and the living is easy, as the saying goes. But the dressing – not so much. I always struggle with summer looks because my style is so based in layering. This is an example of a casual outfit I throw on during those days when it’s just too hot for anything else….Read More
