I'm slowly changing into a bouquet
























I met up with Lorena of fashion jolik who was visiting New york from Peru, we had some chats and lunch in Nolita and took some nice blog shoots :) I always love meeting other bloggers!

This is another "Ebay" Floral dress find, $15!! The length of the dress was over/on the knee so I shortened it a little and I might use some of the left-over fabrics to modify the dress a bit more, a simple change like changing the hemline can completely update an look! Scissors man, gotta love scissors :)


Zara white blazer, Ebay floral dress, H&M scarf and hat, Rooper boots, Nasty Gal canvas tote

Gosh I love this! The floral dress is sweet but the boots make your outfit kinda grungy :)

Oh and I don't know if you know this but I saw that your DIY embellished tights blog tutorial was featured in this month's issue of CLEO, a women's magazine in Australia! I was flicking through the mag and I was surprised when I recognised your pictures! :P

FashionJazz said...

Luv ur dress hun!! Hope u well, we must caht soon! lots of luv : ) xxxx

angie said...

I follow Lorena's blog and I saw the really nice pictures she (or her husband) took of you. You should ask her to let you use those pictures because they are adorable. Specially the one where you are walking away.

anyway, girl you look so cute like always, I'll try to recreate your style with a couple of things I just got.

Charlotte said...

Hoi,

Ik volg de blog van Lorena, dus was het leuk om ook die van jou even te kijken(nice!!!), die pic jullie samen was echt mooi en grappig.
Ik denk dat veel fashionjolik fans zullen je blog kijken.

Helen said...

Jyun said...

Not flowery enough :P Btw, you look washed out in the faded colour dress and white blazer. You should try red lips or chunky neck accessories.

COME OVER TO THE DARK SIDE... WE HAVE CANDY said...

Wat leuk dat jullie gemeet hebben! Die foto van jullie samen is super leuk! Die moet je ook op jouw eigen blog zetten! =] Geweldige look ook weer!
