STRIPED TOP & BLAZER

Today I want to share with you some pictures from Pienza. Pienza is a small town situated in the southern part of Tuscany which is a rare example of Renaissance town building. It's not just a beautiful town with spectacular panoramic views but it is also famous for its Pecorino cheese, my favorite Italian cheese! What is more, it is situated between the towns of Montepulciano and Montalcino which are especially well known for their wines and are certainly worth a visit. We go there every September. If you want, you can check my previous posts from Pienza here and here.

Visiting these towns situated on the Tuscany hills means you have to walk up and down a lot, so the outfit has to be comfortable, especially the shoes. I really like the blazer and oxford shoes combo. A striped top and jeans are the musts in my luggage so this outfit could be called my travel uniform.

EMBROIDERED KIMONO & CUTOFFS

We took these photos in Puglia last week (check my Puglia Travel Diary) while exploring a beautiful Vieste. When travelling, I always try to keep my outfits comfortable yet stylish. I love this structured kimono jacket I got from Zara this summer – it’s the perfect piece for transitioning your style from summer to fall. This one in particular won me over with the fringe details. Fringe has been trending for the past few seasons and it's going to be a big trend this fall too. 

I also love a gorgeous blue embroidery of this jacket. It matches perfectly any denim piece so I paired it with my vintage Levis cutoffs. A tan cross-body bag and lace-up sandals helped me to keep it just the right amount of bohemian.

PUGLIA TRAVEL DIARY

Just back from our last trip of this summer. It's a bittersweet feeling as I am always happy to come home as well as a little bit sad that summer is ending. Anyway, as you might have noticed on Instagram or Facebook, I've spent one week in the south of Italy. We went to Puglia, more precisely to Gargano Promontory which is sometimes called the spur on the heel of Italy’s boot.

FLARES

I love flared jeans, I always did. Well actually I love skinny, boyfriend and mom jeans too. What I'm saying, I love all denim pieces in general!
Anyway, flares are back for a while. Unfortunately it's too hot to wear jeans in summer here in Italy so I had to wait for a cooler day. Saying cooler I mean 30°C. Lucky me flares are going to be a big trend in autumn too. I styled them with my new boho statement necklace from Happiness Boutique, my oldie hat and my new tan cross-body bag.
Do you also love flared jeans and how do you style them? Let me know it in the comments below.

OFF-THE-SHOULDER DENIM DRESS

Last week I talked about my passion for the off shoulder everything this summer and today I am showing you one of those pieces and how I wear it. I bought this denim dress some weeks ago and I've been wearing it a lot of times since then. It's super hot and humid in Italy in these days so light short dresses are my go-to pieces.

Another trend I love this summer is a lace-up, especially lace-up sandals. To finish this look, I added a colorful tassel bracelet I made (here is a tutorial) and a pastel mini bag. Hope you like it, let me know in your comments below! Have a nice week!

MY FAVORITE JUMPSUIT EVER!

I am so in love with this jumpsuit - the color and material, the shape and length, and how fresh it makes me feel in hot Italian summer days. Best buy in the last few months! I often find the jumpsuits to be too short for me but this one is just perfect.

In general, the jumpsuits make a statement like no other so it's really easy to style them. I always try to keep the rest of my outfit quite simple. In this case I added an orange mini bag to play with color blocking, comfy sandals, my favorite sunglasses. And I am ready to explore the city or to take a cocktail with some friends!

Do you wear jumpsuits or rompers? How do you style yours?

SHIRT DRESS

Hello everyone! I hope you are having a nice week so far! I can't believe that it's been so long since my last post here. I guess I just needed to take a break from blogging but I am back! I am also planning to post more DIY projects, shopping advises, recipes and so on since now so stay tuned!

How is your summer going so far? It's been so hot here lately. We took these images last week and I must say I have finally found a perfect shirt dress. I was looking for a more solid texture and this dress is so. I also wore it over a t-shirt and cutoffs and it looked great! This time I paired it this Adidas Stan Smith sneakers and a cross-body triple bag from Mango for a casual look. Do yo like the result? How do you usually wear your shirt dress?

KNITS AND DENIM

Happy 2015 everyone! Don't be afraid to dream, be passionate and adventurous, take risks and be curious, listen and give, smile everyday!

I'm back and starting this year with the casual yet warm look as it's been really cold here lately. Wearing some of my everyday favorites: distressed jeans and a warm cardigan. What about your everyday favorite pieces to keep you warm?

RED FOR A GREY DAY

The day we took these pictures was the only day it wasn't raining last week. On the grey days like these, I like to add some color to my outfit. And this red coat is perfect to make my days brighter. I also added a red bag and left the rest on my look neutral. Hope you like it!

How do you guys fight grey and rainy days?

BODYCON

Black, red, burgundy, dark blue, camel and grey are my favorite fall colors. This time I was wearing three of them. I have started from the burgundy bodycon dress. I rarely wear this type of dresses alone but I like to wear them under the cardigans, coats or jackets. I think a bodycon dress is a must-have basic piece because it's perfect for layering. I added a leather jacket, red mini bag and my new favorite booties.

How do you like to style your bodycon dress?
