Milan & Fall Smiles

Another simple and chic outfit. It's so casual yet so sophisticated. Amazing! Need to get myself a pair of black converse shoes to dress down an outfit including my boyfriend blazer which would otherwise be too dressy for some occasions.

Rachel, I want your Jane Mayle boots!

Hold me tights

Another staple in my wardrobe during fall are leggings and tights. Right before winter when it gets too cold and wearing skirts outside is not really an option anymore, I love to extend my summer wardrobe's life a bit longer by pairing at least my jeans/ dark skirts or a pair of dressy shorts with leggings or tights and a pair of boots or ankle booties. Here are some options for interesting tights if you're looking more something more interesting than plain ones (but not too out there) I found at Topshop, H&M and Forever 21 (click images to enlarge).

The Shopping Flu

Just in time for fall, I have caught the shopamaholic virus.

Well, and this adorable asymmetric tulip skirt...H&M 24.95 EUR

Need. To. Stop. Shopping. Now.

Is there a cure for this virus?

Autumn Trend: The Cropped Leather Jacket

Wow, the new H&M cropped "leather" biker jacket I bought just yesterday is already sold out! Can't wait it to pair with skirts, leggins, and my new black Zara boots for fall, um, autumn! But, you're lucky, they still have the version with a zipper I showed here.


Here are some celebs with their leather jackets:

Autumn at H&M

I like the word autumn (better than fall). I like the new H&M autumn stuff. These few new items almost make me look forward to cooler weather. Nooooo! But hey, I try to see the positive in everything. With a new season comes the opportunity to dig deep inside your closet and pull out all those things you almost forgot you owned...Plus, it's a great excuse to go shopping for new additions to the closet! Here are some H&M things I picked out... The gilet (all fancy for vest) is fake fur, of course! And just as fake is the short biker jacket, unfortunately.all items available online at H&M.
