Belle of the Ball

June 17, 2015,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I attended a black tie event at the French Cultural Center this past weekend and this was my look for the night. I fell in love with the skirt in Paris for its Dior new-look style, and my Aunt was kind enough to gift it to me. For the evening I paired it with a…Read More

Ombre Kind of Day

January 10, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I’ve always loved the idea of ombre but was never sure what kind of ombre piece to buy. There are so many ways to wear the trend: skirts, dresses, tops, bags, hair, pretty much anything can be ombre.

This was the ideal outfit for a trip to the North End on one of those perfect Fall days when the sun is shining and the temperature is just right. I love the combination of this long sleeved, high neck shirt with the leather mini skirt. The contrasting textures look so cool and the amount…Read More

Shaken Not Stirred

August 31, 2012,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

This outfit makes me feel like the femme fatale in a James Bond movie. With the shoulder pads, body-con silhouette, cutout sides, and flowing train it’s sexy, edgy, and a little bit unusual. But when paired with my favorite cage heels and a statement necklace, I’m ready to save the world! Dress: TJ Maxx Heels:…Read More
