3 Spring Looks To Brighten Your Week

March 23, 2021

Light, airy, serene colours...inspired by nature's rebirth.

Few years back, and actually just until I found these pretty pieces on SHEIN, the green-yellow combo was one to make me roll my eyes. A horrible mix if you ask me. But then again, it's all in the details: the shades of each colour: the serene buttermilk yellow, paired with pastel green is pure perfection.

Indeed, I love the designs too - the asymmetry of this dress, which looks like it doesn't button up properly, is super fun. Cristian, my husband, after a quick first look, asked me what's wrong with it, is it too tight around my chest? As if.

And what's with the pearls on the bag? It's the handle! A beautiful, sophisticated one. Pretty sturdy too if you ask me.

The mules are also SHEIN, and they come in a beautiful shade of merlot, a very very dark merlot, and I adore the subtlety. Despite the high heels, they are comfortable and seem to work their way seamlessly into any outfit. See the second look, where I opted for high-rise straight jeans in white, also from SHEIN, and so is the deconstructed beige top with puffy sleeves - not pictured here as I was freezing outside and forgot to reshoot when came back home. I opted for a bag I'm in love with, which comes in a beautiful shade of bluebird blue (Pantone named it this way), plus golden details.

As I froze to death shooting the second look, I had to rethink my third one so I added the shearling shacket which wasn't in the schedule. But it was so damn windy and cold! Tweed trousers, in a pink so soft and subtle it reminds me of cotton candy, and so do the beautifully blossomed trees on the street near where we live. Pastel pink plus off-white, plus warm caramel shades sound delicious, don't they? Inspired by the cakes I love, obviously. Because inspiration comes from everywhere. And inspiration doesn't mean copy/paste, that's theft and lack of personality. Haha!
