Outfit of the Day: Silver Maxi Skirt

Happy Weekend! Any plans on what are you doing on this beautiful Saturday? Being lazy? Oh yeah, I hear you. I am planning on going out in this lovely sun and have a day off, or at least an afternoon off. Then my friends, I'm back to studying. The cruel reality is, the exam time is almost here and it's time to step up the preparations. But I don't wanna be the party breaker today, so let's get back to the outfit, shall we.

This was shot yesterday morning, just to try on this pretty skirt. Maxi skirts were kinda out of my comfort zone till now, but I decided to get out of the box and get this pretty thing. I was a bit worry how I'm gonna style this, but it turned out, even though it's kinda shiny, it can be worn as an everyday skirt. I think it goes perfectly with this pink jumper of mine, don't you?

New In: Spring Shopping

It looks quite a lot, but I did very few shopping this past month. I stayed on the budget, probably for the first time. I'm scared this budget is flying out of the window pretty soon... Anyways, I hope you like what I have here and you're more than welcome to share your latest purchases with me!

I bought a shirt that nobody really likes, but I think every girl needs a patterned shirt to throw over LBD, beside, it was on sale. The pastel and the white tops I also got on sales and I did a little customization on the white one with some aztec print and studs (typical me). The black shirt I found hiding in grandma's closet and just had to have it.

The beautiful lacey necklaces and earrings were made by my boyfriend's mom and are waiting for the perfect opportunity to take it out. The ring is from eBay and is also pretty rad.

The blazer on the left you saw already and is from grandma's closet, and the shirt on the right I scored on the Swap party. I think it needs a little something to really shine, but I'm not sure yet what to do with it.

On the other hand, this skirt doesn't need any help, because it shines pretty bright on her own. Isn't it pretty though? I was looking for a maxi skirt for a while, but almost gave up when none was fitting right. When I saw this, I knew it had to be mine.

Weekly inspiration

Summer is coming closer and closer, but before it comes, there's this month of exams that's almost here. Oh, boy. I am preparing myself to start studying and saying goodbye to my social life for a while. But that's the price to finally succeed this year. Okay, now back to the point of this post. Inspiration! The weather is getting warmer and warmer and you can see there are less and less clothes involved in my collages. I am very excited for this lovely weather (if we ignore the fact that it rained for this whole weekend) and for all the summer clothes that are waiting for me in the closet!

Outfit of the day: Swap Party

Hey guys, I hope you have had a great weekend so far! I went to the Swap party yesterday and let me tell you, these kind of events should be done more frequently. I mean, you bring things you don't need and swap them with fabulous clothes you can only dream about. I scored two pretty things, which I'll show you in one of my next posts. Before the event I found another hidden treasure and that's this pretty blazer I wore yesterday. It was hidden in my grandma's closet, just hanging there and it would be just wrong not to take it with me, so I did. Okay, let's talk event photos and outfit now.

It wouldn't be me, if I wouldn't forget something. And this time, it was charging my camera. I don't use it a lot and when I have the opportunity, it has empty battery. Argghh, typical me. I did manage to do three shots before it went blank on me, so the rest is caught by the phone. I promise, I'll get better with these taking pictures thing...

GIVEAWAY! Firmoo sunglasses

I am very happy to announce another giveaway on Fashion Junkie. Woohoo! I partnered up with Firmoo, they kindly sent me a pair of sunglasses last summer, which are now my ultimate favorite pair! Even though I have a lot of sunglasses laying around the house, these ones are always with me. I would link them, but unfortunately this model isn't available anymore, although they have lots of others equally awesome. I am so excited that now I can introduce them to you too!
