Winter Calling.

  Pink leaves. 

   I think I won't exaggerate telling you that this has been my 'uniform' for the past month or so, my go-to outfit style for autumn. A crop top (have worn it all summer and now, on a long sleeve version) and a black skirt that has been one of my best buys ever. It has an amazing fitting and just the ideal length- not too short (so that I can't feel free to move) but not too long either. It can be worn day or night with the right styling. I am a sucker for unique and original pieces, maybe with an unusual print, but as I grow older (and , ehm, wiser) I tend to look out for classic, versatile pieces,and believe me, these are the ones I prove to wear more often. 

   This photoshoot and the ones that will follow will indicate that bare legs were kind of 'my thing' at this time of the year. Well, at least until last week, when the weather chilled notably and bare legs with just a short pair of socks are no longer an option! If you think that we also snapped these photos very quickly, just before it went dark, then you have it: winter is coming.  

p.s. A very... sweet project is coming soon on Red Rose Cheeks! Stay tuned :)

French Girls.

   I have always thought that French girls are the epitome of what we call "chic". They are all about feminity, but it is weird how they manage to do that, despite the fact that they can add girly and boyish touches in the same outfit. The french braid on the hair, the french manicure on the nails, the pearls on the ears, the flowy fabrics clothing the body seem to go so well with shorts or a classic masculine jacket!

   Speaking of these things, how do you like my new hairstyle? I haven't tried a braid since I was, exmm, about 10 years old, and it felt like a nice change! The shorts are Fullah Sugah- I visited their store yesterday and found many pretty treasures and all in great prices! If you like to see more Fullah Sugah, visit other bloggers here, here and here .

   Before I stop my endless rambling on this post, as you can easily tell, I obviously like to roll between different decades or different styles when I am getting dressed. It depends on the mood I have at the time, or even a photo that inspires me when I spend hours and hours browsing on fashion blogs. After all, this is fashion. Experimenting, trying out things and finding inspiration e v e r y w h e r e.
