Dress - Mad Love // Hat - Montenegrin // Shades - Giant Vintage // Shoes - DinSkoOn one of my walks in the old town of Herceg Novi, Montenegro, I managed to snap some quick outfit shots in this interesting environment. It was in the middle of an extremely hot day, so I was just one of the few people walking around between the ancient buildings. I'm sitting between an old church and a local music school, enjoying a light breeze from the Adriatic sea. It seems like forever ago, but it's barely bee [..]

1380 versus 2012

Published on 2012-06-24 17:21:00

I had to share these captions from Herceg Novi, Montenegro. The contrasts are undeniable. Some of the buildings date back to the 1380's, but local artists and taggers have sporadically befouled history throughout the city. Not sure what I think about it, but it did catch my attention. It's slightly sad, and a little bit beautiful.

It's mine, all mine.

The garden of Monet

Published on 2012-06-06 04:00:00

Personal and unmistakable, Renato Cerisola's style is fluid. According to his resume, he does not specialize in any particular area, but follow the thread of sensitivity and emotion. This is a project that easily could pass as an ode to Monet and his studies of art and strokes. Found at the gates of Normandy, this charming Japanese captured his interest just like Giverny attracted Monet. An explosion of fragrances, influences and colors is captured in photography, unlike anything I've ever seen. [..]

My little shop had a serious overhauling yesterday. I added 27 new pieces from my wardrobe. Most of them have only been worn once, so maybe you or someone you know can give them a new home. I'm trying to go back to basics in both my wardrobe and style, and be more environmental friendly in the process. I'm selling blouses, dresses, skirts and vests ranging from US2 to US10; XS to Large and even some one sizes. Cheap and chic, between $9 and $42!Hope you'll find something you like!

I'm not showing you the worst part here, but I can tell you that the seams look like an art-project gone bad, of sorts. It is comfortable [..]

Long time, no outfit! Welcome 2011. If you've stopped by my twitter or facebook this past month, you'll know that I've been sick throughout the holidays - which naturally led to a total lack of outfit posts. Not much one can do when even getting out
