Blazer: Topshop; Top/Scarf: H&M; Skirt: Aqua; Shoes: Asos

So I´m standing in front of my wardrobe and my friends are waiting outside in the car for me. Of course I am too late, like always. I´m wearing my black Aqua skirt, I know which shoes I´m going to wear and I know that I will put on my blazer.

BUT

which top? So here I was, in a hurry and not knowing which top to combine with this outfit. Suddenly this black H&M scarf starred at me and I had this little vision of wrapping it around my upper body. 

Here we are, Do-It-Yourself always works out :)

Peplum-Top: H&M; Leather Jacket:  Market; Leggings: Zara; Shoes: Zara; Chain: Topshop

The weather is screaming for some new boots, so I made my way to the shopping center to get me a new pair. Who else then the spanish fashion chain Zara can offer you some boots for fair prices. As the heel is not as high and thin, it makes them very easy and comfortable to walk in, even during the day. So I used my second day of uni to try their comfort. Result = excellent! 

Thank you Zara for a new pair of shoes in my shoe closet :)

Also new are my Ray Ban - Clubmaster Sunglasses. Always fancied these glasses and finally got them :)

Jumper: Primark; Skirt: H&M; Shoes: Air Force 1; Lipstick: Mac; Chain: Topshop

After a three month long summer break I am back into reality. My third year in Uni started today and to make this easier for me, god send us some sunrays over London. No cold temparatures at the end of September. I went for the black look today. To spice it up and put on my spicey red MAC lipstick. 

Wish you all a great start into the week.

Light Blue Jeans

Leather Jacket: Market; Scarf: Zara; Jeans: Topman; High Heels: Zara

I am sure you ladies do feel every now and then like wearing a bit more loose-fit and baggy clothing. I had this special feeling a few days ago and grabbed my light blue baggy jeans that I bought the other day TOPMAN.

Yes, sometimes I really do shop in the men´s section, as I think that we ladies can combine certain pieces to very cool outfits.

Light blue mixed with my rough leather jacket and Zara high heels that give this outfit the feminine touch.

How you feel about my combination?

Purple Window

 Dress: Lilly Bling; Glasses: Vintage; Earrings: Lilly Bling; High Heels: Zara

I mentioned a few times that I work in a small boutique in East London (Aldgate East) on the weekends. Lilly Bling provides its female customers with trendy pieces, from Office Dresses to club outfits. This new piece in my wardrobe is from Lilly Bling. Beautiful simple black dress with special details make it so unique. Combined for the night with a pair of high heels or casual during the day with a pair of boots or sneakers will make you look as fabulous as you are.

Ladies come and visit us!

So as I went yesterday for some drinks with my friends, I had to stop at this amazing wall. The grey windows got reflected by the sun which gave them a purple-ish / metallic colour. Funny how you can randomly find some great places in London. Special thank you to my friend Aleksandra for her patience and talent as a photographer!

Hamsa

Jumper: Boy London; Dress: Asos; Sneakers: Nike / Air Force One

Ohhh, look what I found. Some pictures my wonderful cousin Lina took of me when I was in Germany for my Sister´s wedding in June. I totally forgot to upload them. It was a nice and sunny day but couldn´t really leave the house without my old Boy London - Jumper. 

I don´t know about you but I am still a bit superstitious sometimes. Blue Eye and Fatima´s Hand are one of the most well known things known for protecting you from the evil eye. When I was younger we used to wear necklaces with the eye. Now, a few years later it became a fashion trend. You can find them almost everywhere as jewellry or on your clothes. Thats why I couldn´t say no to this cool dress with the print of "Fatima´s Hand" on it. 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The hamsa is a palm-shaped amulet popular throughout the Middle East and North Africa, and commonly used in jewelry and wall hangings.^[1][2] Depicting the open right hand, an image recognized and used as a sign of protection in many societies throughout history, the hamsa is believed to provide defense against the evil eye. The symbol predates Christianity and Islam. In Islam, it is also known as the hand of Fatima, so named to commemorate Muhammad's daughter Fatima Zahra . Levantine Christians call it the hand of Mary, for the Virgin Mary. Jews refer to it as the hand of Miriam in remembrance of the biblical Miriam, sister of Moses  and Aaron.

Leather Coat: Topshop; Leather Trousers: H&M; Shoes: Zara

All Black Everything with a little Orange color splash. I think these orange High Heels by Zara are just the perfect item for Spring/Summer. Well, lets hope we will get any S/S temperatures.

I am in love with this leather coat that I stole out of my friends wardrobe. Oh yes, even bloggers run out of clothes sometimes.
