Package from Dressgal #1

Hey guys,

How have you all been? Sorry for being absent again for a little bit but I'm back with a new post. I said previously that I was feeling a little lost and this carried on for a while longer but I am starting to heal and come back to myself again.

So what's new? Well, my mom officially moved to Germany a week ago which is absolutely crazy! I was both excited and terrified but it seems she is loving it there which makes me verrrryyy happy. I miss her all the time though, but that's something I have to get used too. Apart from that, things have been absolutely hectic with work; my close friend was given the green light by the doctors after his surgery and came back to work on Friday, it's nice to have him back. Otherwise we are headed out for a sushi dinner tomorrow night.. of course it's gonna be hilarious and full of great memories as always.

I recently got a generous package from Dressgal who contacted me asking if I wanted to pick out $25 worth of clothes. I picked out a whole bunch of versatile things that I can wear in winter, summer, work, not work, whichever. What I love about these kind of stores is how you can try out trends for super affordable prices. 

In total I picked out 5 things, one of which didn't fit but that's okay. In today's post I styled two of the items that I got. The first is this beaaaaautiful patterned skirt and the second these whacky but hella cool cat-eye sunglasses. I wore this outfit for work but loved how put together and chic it was, so I had to share it with you guys!

Hope you love it as much as I do. Let me know what you think in the comments below.

Light and love,
xx

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,

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

Las Vegas, from Day to Night

Hello beautiful petals, 

How are you all doing? Sorry again that I've been a little busy. Things have been crazy with work as usual and I've been hanging out with some newly made friends. We went to Ayia Napa this weekend for a fun night of dancing, but let's not get into that. I'll talk more about it in another post but for tonight I have something different to share.

When I found out that Vegas.com was on the hunt for the #UltimateVegasOutfit, I knew I couldn't pass it up! I went to their website and checked out some of the Las Vegas hotels and locations for dining out and for clubbing.  I ended up styling two different outfits for two separate occasions.

The first outfit would be something I'd wear to "Sushi Roku." As you could guess from the name, it is a funky sushi place. It is definitely somewhere to go if you want to try out-of-the-box sushi. For this kind of scene I would wear something cute, put together but still casual.. NOT TO MENTION, summery. I wore my crotchet blouse with my high-low tribal skirt and some gladiator sandals. 

The second outfit is to a beaaaaaaautiful club called "Voodoo Rooftop Nightclub." Mysterious vibe + rooftop = perfect place for me! For this look I went for something much more 90's glam. The sparkle is very Las Vegas and can imagine the lights hitting me on the dancefloor would be the coolest thing. 

Outfit details for both will be below after each photo set. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend <3 

(Note: sorry for the small photos today, accidentally changed the setting on my camera again. All fixed now.)

Light and love,
