Firas Yousif

October 13, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Firas Yousif is one of my absolute favorite Boston designers. With a focus on evening and bridal wear he’s an incredibly talented artist. Just from looking at his garments you can see the craftsmanship that goes into them, from the intricate beading to the cut and shape of his gowns. Firas works quite a bit…Read More

Pretty Young Thing

June 23, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

This outfit feels so classic to me, with the black and white color scheme and the midi hem length. I’ve updated it with a crop top and tulle skirt but there’s something ever elegant about this combination. Shirt: TJ Maxx, Skirt: Forever21 (similar here), Shoes: Tahari, Belt: Thrifted, Rings: Assorted Photos by Jenni Heller.  …Read More

by Celina[zilla_likes]

I love mixing hard and soft and in this outfit in particular I wanted to add an edge to my usual tutu.

Spring Forward

April 13, 2013,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I couldn’t resist using the fairytale landscape at Kasteel Well to my advantage. The grounds of the castle were incredibly beautiful and with this pink tulle dress and a floral headband, I felt just like a fairy. Dress: ASOS Headpiece: Urban Outfitters Shoes: Forever21 Necklace: Borrowed from roommate Ring: Purchased in Toledo Photos by Jamie…Read More
