Dress c/o* | Coat c/o* | Bag | Wedges (Similar) | Sunglasses (Similar) | Tights | Earrings Tweed is one of those fabrics I always picture wearing in colder months. However, there’s no reason you can’t wear your tweed in spring! This tweed dress is actually a perfect transition piece from the chilly winter months to beautiful sunshiny days of spring and early summer. It… Read more »
Sweater c/o* | Boots | Jeans | Bag | Necklace | Earrings | Sunglasses Golly, would you look at that…an outfit post! It’s been a while. This is mainly due to me wanting to start showing spring outfits, but not yet having spring weather. It is COLD and snowy in Russia. Shocking, right? So, I’m still featuring comfy, cozy, winter outfits. However, this sweater is not nearly as warm as I thought it was going to be. If I wear… Read more »
Dress | Scarf c/o* (Similar here & here) | Boots c/o* | Bag (similar) This maxi dress continues to appear on my blog no matter what season or occasion it is. Sometimes it’s being worn for dinner or drinks in the fall and winter, other times it’s simply worn to run errands in the summer…and here it’s being worn for an adventure in Goreme, Turkey! Yeah, sorry, we’re going back to Turkey for the next few posts. I wasn’t totally… Read more »
Cardigan c/o* | Boots c/o* (Similar here & here) | Jeans | Scarf c/o* (Similar here) | Bag I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! I don’t know about you, but I am ready for a nap now. Haha. It’s fantastic seeing everyone at this time of year and going to all the parties and eating all the food, but wowzers I am tuckered out now. I love wearing dresses and sparkly things during the holidays. But now that Christmas… Read more »
Beret c/o* (Identical here) | Top c/o* | Boots c/o* (Similar) | Jeans | Gloves c/o* (Similar here) | Bag It’s that time of year again…beret season! Berets are an interesting accessory, in my opinion. Most people seem to like the way they look. However, they always vehemently exclaim, “I could NEVER pull off a beret.” I was one of those people up until last year when Unique Vintage sent me beret as part of my Christmas present. Now, I’m… Read more »
Top c/o* | Boots c/o* | Bag | Jeans | Scarf | Sunnies (similar) | Necklace (similar) Just like that, our Indian Summer has come to an end. Brrr…it’s cold these days! But, I’m not complaining! That means I can finally break out all of my cold weather gear I’ve been patiently waiting to wear. I’m especially excited about my new boots. I do quite a lot of walking now that I’m in Moscow, and once the snow starts flying, I… Read more »
Ever since I posted the outfit above on my blog over 3 years ago I’ve been getting questions about shopping on Shein. “Is it safe to order from them? Are the clothes actually that good of quality? How long does shipping take? What is sizing like?” So, for today’s post, I thought it might be helpful to make a post featuring my tips for having a successful shopping experience on Shein, plus the clothes I’ve ordered from them over the… Read more »
Cape c/o* | Boots c/o* (similar) | Bag | Jeans | Sunglasses c/o* | Necklace (similar) While capes often bring to mind images of Superman and Batman, you don’t have to be able to fly or drive a Batmobile to rock one this fall. There are so many fun options! I’ve very pleased that capes appear to be here to stay for a while longer. They’re such a classy and simple look, in my opinion. Wearing one as a coat… Read more »
Bag | Cardigan | Skirt c/o* (Similar here & here) | Sneakers | Sunglasses (similar) | Top | Earrings (similar) Summer’s days are numbered, and there’s an ever so slight nip in the air… which of course, I could not be more excited about! In true style blogger fashion, I love fall. It’s the best time of year for style and layering is so much fun! Layering is the key to any good fall outfit. It also means your summer… Read more »
Dress c/o* | Bag | Sandals (similar) | Sunglasses (similar) | Earrings It’s certainly taken me long enough to figure out, but I’m getting much better at putting together exploring outfits that are both comfortable yet cute looking. It’s really not too difficult either! The formula basically comes down to having a dress that breathes well (you can sweat in it all day and still be comfortable), a comfortable pair of walking shoes/sandals that are versatile and also stylish, a… Read more »
Skirt | Pullover c/o* | Flats | Bag (different color) | Sunglasses (similar) Bring on the florals! Haha. I wear florals all year long, but this time of year is just such an opportune time to take this print to the max. I’ve been coveting this floral skirt for YEARS. However, it wasn’t until now that I finally took the plunge. I had talked myself out of it repeatedly because I really didn’t NEED another skirt. However, I’ve been mentally… Read more »
You asked, and I have delivered! Haha. A couple outfit posts ago I had featured this white, eyelet, midi skirt and realized it could certainly be made into an outfit remix post if there was enough interest. And the comments section has spoken! An outfit remix post must be made! (Thank you for the feedback everyone.) A white skirt is basically a blank canvas, you can style it any which way you choose. However, it’s nice to have a little… Read more »
Click to shop: Styling a floral maxi dress for fall is much easier than it sounds. Actually, styling any dress for cooler weather is possible. The key is adding layers. Whether it be a cardigan and tights or jean jacket and scarf, it all comes down to layers! And I know, I know, it’s not fall in Argentina, but just let me pretend. Haha. It kills me that there aren’t any changing leaves or pumpkins in October! But we did… Read more »
Click to shop: It’s really been fun trying to dress for all the seasons this week, haha. My last outfit post was all about spring, and then the temps dipped back down to make it perfect to break out my fall/winter wardrobe again…all in the same weekend. And while I’m generally a fan of wearing vintage inspired dresses or skirts on the weekend, this past weekend I was all about jeans and silky tops. The top featured in this post… Read more »
Click to shop: My trip back to my home state of Wisconsin was just what I needed. The balmy summer days and time with family and friends does the soul good….as does a little wildflower picking. Actually, technically, I believe these are weeds, haha. But nonetheless, I’ve always thought “Queen Anne’s lace” was pretty, and beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Right? And for such occasions, one needs the perfect dress! My little venture into bodycon dresses was… Read more »
Click to shop: If you’ve been following along on my social media (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc.) you may have noticed I was really excited to order another pair of glasses! I had featured a pair from GlassesShop.com in this post here. And while I still love wearing them, they fit a little wonky now thanks to falling asleep with them on during a flight…and smashing my face into the window next to me. (Whoops!) But I now have another pair… Read more »
The only kind of drama I like – dramatic sleeves! And this my first outfit post from Rosario! I do still have travel posts left from New Zealand, but I wanted to break this week up a bit and not go too travel crazy. So, here’s a little outfit post to spice things up. I’m always a bit late to join the party when it comes to trends, but I do LOVE the dramatic sleeves trend that has been going… Read more »
Shop the look: Ok, admittedly, in today’s day and age, these shorts aren’t all that short. They feel short to me….and for some reason, I can’t get that song “Short Shorts” by The Royal Teens out of my head this week, haha. But hey! At least my butt cheeks are covered, haha. And oh my goodness gracious! These are the most comfortable pair of shorts I now own – hands down. They are baggy in all the right places and… Read more »
Shop the look: Look at me go! I am on a roll with these trends! Haha. Although, again, I’m a bit behind with this one. Metallic skirts were all the rage for the holidays, and while this is a trend that does appear to still be going strong…I do see why they were so popular around the holidays. I mean, sparkly and shimmery is perfect for that time of year! But it can still work for the rest of the… Read more »
Shop the look: The first day I wore this dress, my husband loved it. Not only did he think it looked cool, but he also couldn’t stop laughing because I had a woman sneakily trying to photograph this dress while we were walking to dinner. She was pretty sneaky, as I didn’t notice until my husband pointed it out. I should’ve turned around and just told her where it was from. Alas, introversion got the best of me, though. (I… Read more »
Shop the look: Just as we were about to leave for the day, my husband looked at me and said, “You look too expensive to be standing next to me! Should I change?” As he was wearing jeans and a t-shirt. I laughed and told him he looked great…and we went about our day. But that made me think about this outfit a little harder. If you took the accessories out of the equation, this outfit cost just under $70…. Read more »
As you’re reading this post, I will be flying somewhere over the Pacific Ocean on my way to our new home Sydney, Australia! That is crazy to think. Especially since we’ve been trying to move to Australia for the past 4 years…it really doesn’t feel like it’s happening now. So, this will be my last outfit post from Japan. I do have a few travel posts from Tokyo that I will publish next week (including a post about what surprised… Read more »
Would you looks at that…two crop tops in one summer! Haha. Boy oh boy, I’m coming around to this trend! Not because I actually want to be showing my midsection off, I just really like the way this style of top looks with my high-waisted bottoms. (I mean can you even tell this is a crop top with the skirt I’m wearing?) And on warm days, it’s comfier than tucking a shirt into my bottoms. This is another crop top… Read more »
Baseball is America’s favorite pastime…but I think it just might be Japan’s favorite pastime too! I went to my first Japanese baseball game yesterday, and it was unlike anything I had experienced at home. The level of excitement and fan participation was incredible! The only sporting event I’ve experienced that has even come close to this was a Badger Game on Halloween. (A reference for my fellow Wisconsinites, sorry everyone else!). The Food & Beverages And what’s a ball game… Read more »
Crop Top c/o* | Shorts | Sandals | Sunglasses (similar) | Bag (similar) I have been working up the courage to wear a crop top for years now…and I’ve finally taken the plunge! But thanks to my lovely high-waisted shorts and midi skirt collection that I’ve been adding to over the years… I don’t actually have to show skin unless I want to. As you can see with this outfit, I’m not really showing my midriff, unless I’m reaching for… Read more »
I’m wearing glasses for the first time in my outfit post history! Haha. And yes, they are prescription…I’m actually very nearsighted. I usually wear contacts and only wear glasses when I first wake up and just before I go to bed. This is mainly because the glasses that I had were from when I first found out I needed them way back in 7th grade! So, they are tiny frames and no longer the right prescription (my eyesight continues to… Read more »
Dress (Similar) | Sandals | Bag | Necklace | Brooch I have been on quite the polka dot kick lately. (Ok, I am always on a polka dot kick!) I think I’ve worn polka dots in every outfit post I’ve done for the past three weeks. Haha. I broke this polka dot dress from Shein out this weekend when I visited our local zoo! The NEW Zoo in Suamico is awesome for so many reasons. I’ll do a separate post… Read more »
