Last Summer Days
















































Hi beauties,

How was your weekend? Mine was full of time spent with my Momma. She moves to Germany on Wednesday, so trying to give her all my time and attention. It will be the first time I've ever lived without my mom, and unlike college I'll have to be a proper adult with my job and everything. It's going to be very strange and very hard to get used to. Apart from that, things have definitely not been easy and I've been feeling quite lost, hopefully I'll be back to my normal self soon enough. 

This weekend we just ran errands but then had a lovely dinner at a sushi restaurant on Saturday. On Sunday it was a cleaning day and then we went for a much needed sunset swim as a family. 

If you haven't noticed that I am totally obsessed with this off-the-shoulder top DressLink sent me, now you will. I styled another super cute outfit with this item on Saturday and I couldn't resist sharing it with you. This time it was a color palette of greens, white and black. I absolutely love how the flowyness of the skort goes with the delicate top. 

Alright, it's time for my bed, got a long day of work tomorrow. Signing offf!

Light and love,
xx

Bohemian Collision















































Hello beautiful souls,

Like I promised I am back with the second piece that I picked out from DressLink.

This week has been quite hectic, a close friend from work had a spontaneous emergency with his lungs and has had to have two surgeries, so when I haven't been at work, I've been at the hospital. 

No need to worry though, he is perfectly fine now (thankfully) and will be discharged soon enough. 

Alright, so onto today's outfit. 
I styled this beaaaaaautiful off-the-shoulder bell sleeved boho top that I picked out from DressLink. I decided to stay with the whole black theme but went for some shorts that were colorful but with a black base. I also went for a pop of color with the adorable yellow rope earrings. This is just an everyday summer outfit for me and embodies my summer style; sexy, bohemian and free-flowing. 

Oh well I better head to bed.. one more day of work and it's the WEEEEEKEEEEEEND!

Light and love,
xx

'98















































Hello my lovelies! 

How was everyone's weekend? 

It was a hard week for me.. got some unexpected and disappointing news; I learned the true colors of some of the people in my life, so just been trying to register it all and make sense of it. For that reason my weekend was definitely one of self-love and self care. I meditated, did yoga and went swimming in the evening on Saturday. Sunday, my family and I spent alllllll day the beach; I got to enhance my kick ass tan! 

So, a couple of weeks ago I got contacted by DressLink again, this time telling me I could pick out some clothes. DressLink is such a wonderful place to buy awesome trends for a totally affordable price. I thought I would go for one clothing item, boho and another item to be a little bit more out of my comfort zone. I picked out this sporty dress with gold accents and cut outs on the sleeve. It is super comfortable and got that sport luxe with a bit of a minimal vibe. I wore this on casual Friday to work and made it my own with some grungy elements like the tattoo choker and the beaten up converse. 

I also shot this adorable bell sleeved off-the-shoulder black crop top I picked out and it will be up on the blog soon, so stay tuned. 

Light and love,
xx

An Office Ensemble















































Hello my wonderful petals, 

I am so so so sorry for the absence again. It seems it's getting harder and harder to post regularly with my internship but I'm here with a new post! 
I promised in my last one that I would talk about my trip to Ayia Napa; I went with two of my really close guy friends, we headed out after 4pm, drove there, had some dinner, went for a swim in the beautiful sea and then went dancing. 

The sea water in Ayia Napa is spectacular, an exquisite turquoise color and the sand is so white. The clubs there were something else, it was absolute chaos but it was very entertaining; just drunk, half-naked British people. I had so much fun dancing at the Castle Club though, my friends had to drag me out of there because I didn't want to stop. 

Apart from that not too much has been happening, just hanging out with friends from work, constantly working where I am learning so much and gaining a lot of experience. I've been going to the beach a lot with my mom and my sister and have gotten a kick-ass tan! 

This weekend we have a company party because our firm turns 3 years old on Saturday. That's going to be really fun, full of laughter and good vibes. I will be sure to show you guys my outfit and some photos of the night life. 

Okay, so onto today's outfit.
I shot this outfit a little over a week ago; this is the usual kind of outfit I wear to work. I wanted to share an office look, to show you that you can look professional but still look stylish and cute. If you read my post "My DressLink Wishlist", DressLink ended up seeing it and sent me the items. The dress I wanted ended up being too short but my sister had the smart idea of cutting it into a t-shirt. I paired my newly created t-shirt with a black pencil skirt, my favorite pair of flats and accented everything with playful jewelry and a tropical bag.

What do you think? Is this an outfit you could see yourself wearing to work?

Light and love,
xx
