Seeing Spots

March 24, 2015,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Once in a while I have to step away from the trendy and get back to the classic. The other day Boston hit the 50 degree mark and to celebrate I put on a retro polka dot dress and a classic trench. But it wouldn’t be a Celina outfit without a little something extra, so…Read More

Sunday Snapshots

From left to right: 1) Getting glam with a red lip and layered necklaces. 2) Happy February! Let’s make it the best month yet. 3) Grabbing a pick-me-up from my favorite cafe and creperie. 4) Fighting snowstorms with flannel and coffee. 5) Playing with some turquoise snakeskin heels. 6) A little weekend inspiration. Don’t quit on what makes you happy.

October 10, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I love to wear one-of-a-kind pieces. There’s something really gratifying about wearing something fabulous that no one else has.

I don’t know what it is about this skirt but from the moment I saw it, I knew it had huge fashion potential. In theory it’s a little odd – a skirt with Marilyn Monroe’s face all over it. But you’ve got to hand it to the famous 1950s sex symbol, she even looks good…Read More

Impression Sunset

by Celina[zilla_likes]

For a long time I’ve been searching for the perfect matching skirt-and-top set. As soon as I saw this I knew it was the one. The print reminds me of impressionist paintings with the bold colors and abstract forms. The structure is playful and fun but still sophisticated. I shot these photos at the MFA…Read More

Saratoga Springs

June 11, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Recently I took a trip to see my friend Rebecca Isenhart at her home near Albany, NY. The beautiful natural surroundings, adorable shops, and slower pace were a refreshing change from the daily grind here in Boston. On a day trip we went up to Saratoga Springs and, of course, I had to plan an outfit…Read More
