Little Toy Soldier

October 12, 2017,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I found this dress at a Goodwill in New Hampshire. It was a child’s costume from a community theatre production and it was floor length. Fortunately, being mini has its perks, and I took it home, chopped off the bottom and turned it into a fashion piece. And by me I mostly mean my mom. …Read More

Blushing Beauty

April 12, 2016,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Blush is my new favorite color of the season. There’s been an uptick in styles in this color after Pantone named “Rose Quartz” (aka blush), one of their colors of the year.

Jump On It

June 24, 2015,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

My obsession with jumpsuits continues with this beauty, another one of my Parisian thrift store finds. It has a very ’80s vibe that I’m digging here with the loose harem fit and geometric cutouts. I especially love a good jumpsuit in the summer because it’s easy to throw on and boom, outfit done. To tone…Read More
