Tumblr is my most recent obsession and since I’ve downloaded the Tumblr Android App checking for fashion inspiration daily has been much more accessible as I can browse on my way to work. Technology does really makes life easier!

Well, last Friday, while flicking through some fashion Tumblrs I found the picture of model Amra Cerkezovic, looking extremely pretty, fresh and stylish. I can’t take my eyes out of this picture.

The “model off duty” style it’s one of my favorites, because it is refreshing to see clean faces and a simple T-shirt with denim and a pair of converses.

In fairness most models are amazing looking without any sort of make-up, but for us normal mortals, a light weigh foundation with pale blush and mascara will do for the ‘ no make-up’ effect.

A plain T-shirt is a basic item, but most girls don’t really like wearing it because it isn’t the most flattering piece, (if you are a model, you don’t really have to worry about body-shapes…), but for this look, you are not trying to be sexy or look hot, it’s all about the almost boyish look of being carefree andle.

We all have a pair of denim that we love on our wardrobe, and to achieve this style you only need your favorite pair of worn-to-death denim combined with a great pair of trainers or flat boots.

If you live in Ireland you know that an outfit is never complete if you don’t have your coat. Anything from a blazer to a heavy camouflage coat, at this stage you can be as bold as you want!

As November says the last good byes, Dublin is getting colder and darker. The first signs of winter are pretty visible, by 4.30pm is already night time and 2 degrees is the most common temperature on my phone screen.

Being so busy for work did not leave me time enough to do my winter shopping just yet. I must admit, my lack of time for blogging/researching/reading, put me off shopping for now, I have absolutely no inspiration right now!

I took my Sunday morning in bed to do some fashion homework as I prepare for Christmas Shopping! My favorite things right now are all-black Outfit, heavy jumpers, Pointy Shoes, leather skirts, wolly hats and neon details.

In need of mastering my winter outfitting right now, inspirations and suggestions are accepted!

How many times you find yourself browsing the internet for sunglasses, but giving-up for not knowing how they are going to look on your face?

You can find a better deal and much more options for sunglasses online than in your local department store or optician. But shopping online for sunglasses is quite tricky.

knowing which glasses frames suit better your face-shape is essential if you are considering to buy your perfect shades online!

This is a quick guide on how to shop sunglasses for your face-shape:

The Heart-Shaped Face: Round, bottom-heavy or cat-eye sunglasses will accentuate your shape. Avoid anything too decorative, it will bring out your forehead.

Oval Face Shape: If you own this face shape, you are a lucky women!This is the most wanted shape and looks great with most sunglasses! My favorite one for this shape are the Aviator Ray Ban Glasses!

Square Face-Shape: Similar to the heart-shaped face, the square shape is great for round cat-eye or oval sunglasses. Avoid anything square and always opt for soft curves!

Round Face-Shape: Rectangular or any squarish frames are great for the round shape. Anything small or too round will make your face look even rounder!! 

 My favorite ones are definitely Gucci Sunglasses, they are beautiful, stylish and have extreme high-quality. But if you are searching for something more affordable but still stylish, Carrera Sunglasses are a great option!

The Jumper is a old winter friend, cosy and warm, but always considered a topping for your pijama bottoms, or a ‘supermaket-outfit’. 

Things changed completely when Rihanna stepped out on her Kenzo’s jumper, this piece made the top 10 on most fashionista’s winter wish-list. Nowadays, a good grey over sized jumper is what the coolest kids wear.

Studs, diamonds, crazy prints and logos are welcome. Topshop and Urban Outfitters have a great selection, but let’s face it, men’s jumpers are always better – and warmer. Hit the menswear section of the high-street shops, they always have, logo and printed jumpers.

Using simple DIY tricks, you can customize a unique jumper. A good idea is to get yourself some studs and apply to the shoulders, cuffs or collar. But if you want to go pro, you can cut your logo in a paper and use it as a stencil to apply the fabric dye on it!

Mach your new garment with boyfriend jeans, leather skinny trousers or skirts and create a different look every time you wear the same jumper.

Monochrome outfits used to be unfashionable for years, but taking the latest Autumn/Winter catwalks, head-to-toe burgundy is the hot it gets this fall.

After all neon, graphic prints and colour-blocking trends I find refreshing to wear one-toned outfits. Although a entire wine-toned look can sound like overdoing, mixing textures can break the dullness. Wool is great fabric for the colder weather and sparkle is certainly one of the best ways to add some fun to any outfit. 

By incorporating key pieces of this season into your ‘all-burgundy’ outfit you are certainly making a style statement. Accessories will help you to create an even more trendy outfit. Add your arm-party and you will have a front row look!

We need a burgundy shower!

Throughout the history of footwear, shoes and boots with long, pointed toes have been favored at various periods and cultures or sub-cultures. On A/W12 and S/S13 Catwalks we saw the return of pointy shoes.

Pumps, boots and sandals receive the elongated treatment and they definitely look more sophisticated and sharp. Welted out soles and platforms add more dimension and structure to the silhouette of the shoes.

Leather and Nappa are the fabrics you are looking for this Autumn. Black is always easier to match and mantain, but maroon, caramel, and dark green are colours not to ignore. White boots have always been a big discussion between fashionistas, but this winter white was embraced with style as a important detail on footwear.

The typical  ‘bone-lenght’ changed to a taller version that should reach at least 1 inch from the ankle-bone. Socks are welcome to the new version of ankle boots. Details such as buckles and metallic frames in the tips of the pointed toes provide a expensive-looking finish and a little touch of the fetish culture.

No doubt on why Fall is my favorite season to buy footwear!

October is the door for Autumn, so now is time to start packing your S/S12 stuff and shop for amazing Autumn/Winter 12.

I love all the jewel tones present on the catwalk on the last Fashion Weeks, but when it comes to colours, black & white are my favorites.

My autumn/winter 12 wardrobe is starting to be built and my chosen pallet is Black, White, Grey and Red. They were always the best colour on my fair yellow toned skin. I’ve been trying colours in vain, they never look as good as monochrome on me, definitely a pity.

Moving towards garments, the sweater is my mojo this autumn.Wool, angora, polyester or cotton, no wardrobe should neglect the sweater this season. The warm and stylish solution for autumn.

Talking wool, I’m going to be putting in practice my good abilities of knitting  while drinking innocent smoothies this month for #IrishBigKnit should be fun, gonna share my results with you!

Interesting and pretty casual, that’s how I like to keep my working outfits. Jumpers are a new must-have for Autumn winter wardrobe.

As always, I can’t decide a good one to buy, but I am pretty sure it is going to come straight from the menswear section. Men’s jumpers are generally warmer and cooler.

Some inspiration to keep our minds open.
