Statement Necklace

Statement Maker

November 5, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

When I saw this necklace hidden on a rack in the back of H&M I had to have it. This takes statement jewelry to a new level. It’s more of a bib or a garment unto itself really. I styled with all black to keep the focus on the necklace and added a flannel coat for…Read More

Sleek & Sophisticated

November 3, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I almost never wear white, but this sassy little athletic-inspired number caught my attention. The classic black and white combo and the easy shape reads American sportswear without the sneakers and polos. This is actually a peplum shirt that I repurposed into a dress. Sometimes being 4’11 has its perks! I paired the shirt/dress with a…Read More

Have a Little Faith

August 13, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Ever since I bought this dress I’ve been in love with the stained-glass/religious kind of print.

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

Secret Garden

June 9, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

My default color is black and a lot of my outfits are made with more neutral tones. When I do wear color it’s usually rich jewel tones or dark muted hues. But something about this neon floral really struck me. The style is very sophisticated and transitional. You could wear it to work, to a…Read More
