Over the Knee Boots: Buy, Style, Wear
Over-the-knee boots have been fashionable on and off for years now but this fall the trend has taken off again and can be found in every high street and online fashion store in various colours, materials and prices! What I really love about over-the-knee boots is their understated chic and versatility. They can instantly make a whole outfit and can easily be paired with dresses, skirts, shorts and jeans. Source: Just the Design Leather and suede over-the-knee boots are particularly cosy during fall and winter months. Layered with over the knee socks (my favorite!), they well protect my knees in cold weather, allowing me to look fashionable even in winter. They also make…

Dress for Less: Sporty Chic with Jeweled Sandals
The S/S 2015 runway shows were dominated by jeweled sandals in minimalistic/sporty style under a wider athleisure trend. But clean lines and athletic aesthetics doesn’t mean boring. Designers have revamped traditional athletic sneakers and hiking or Birkenstock-style sandals by adding bright colours, such as silver and yellow, techno fabrics, chunky soles and jewels. Mixing two completely different styles and adding a hint of sparkle gives comfortable sandals a luxurious feel. I too have embraced this trend and wanted to share my high-street picks and styling ideas.

Dress for Less: Look of the Day – Tartan Shorts
Today I am introducing a new category – Dress for Less – in my Stylish section. Unlike some of the other fashion bloggeres who dress in designer clothes from head to toe, I want to show that you can dress well and be stylish at the high street prices. In my effort to wear every piece of clothing in my closet (and donate or sell what I no longer need!), I have picked tartan shorts from River Island I bought last year. First, I love checkered tartan pattern and second – red is my favourite colour. For today’s look I paired tartan shorts with a black knitted top, black tights and…
