Would You Rather…? (fashion edition)

 ** On a personal note this week: My honest opinion on my job (after 2 years)

OK, what is a better way to come back than with a good old fashioned Q&A? I love them cause they're fun to read and easy to write. I also love to talk about myself (not in real life though...). Anyhow, I saw this post over at Hailey's blog (The Undateable Girl's Diary) and she took it from 3YellowDaisies so read their posts too (after you read mine, of course). As Hailey said, the only rules are that you have to actually make a decision, and “I don’t know” is not an acceptable answer.

There are only 10 questions, but I hope you'll like my answers and, hopefully, you'll think about these and answer them yourself. Let's start.

Lumiliu bags

** On a personal note this week: Quarantine workout routine (for totally unfit people)

Instagram ads. Facebook ads. Youtube ads. Funny concept, those ads. They come in just when you need them, right? I mean, it's no secret that they work like that, that they listen to us and customize everything around our searches. However, it's hard to save money when they know you so well and your weak spots.

My weak spot is definitely fashion. I mean, I have a weak spot for all of it, but showing me a good bag is basically one step from me buying it. However, I've been eyeing this one brand for quite some time now as they seemed too expensive for me. Then Christmas came around and the discounts hit us from all around. So did this brand.

Cleaning fake jewelry

** On a personal note this week: My sleeping problems

I always say I need to get rid of some of my jewelry because I really have too much of it and then I take it all out ready to declutter and I end up just putting everything back. It has been going in circles for months now.

However, one good thing did come out of it. I found some pieces that really needed cleaning up. Real jewelry I always give to the jewelry guy in the store cause I need that really polished, but the fake ones I clean myself. This was actually the first time I did it so I decided to document it.

Gemstones jewelry

** On a personal note this week: Today: 15.4.2019.

In how many posts have I said I have a ton of jewelry? My style varies so much from day to day that I have big chunky necklaces, but also such small dainty jewelry, so I basically buy it all if I can afford it. I kinda showed you my collection in my posts Organizing jewelry (when you have tons of it) and Organizing jewelry (part 2) so you can check that out and maybe get some tips on how to store jewelry...

However, there's a special category in my jewelry collection and those are gemstones. There's a gemstone exhibition each year in my town so I usually go and buy some pieces. I have to emphasize though that I don't actually believe they do anything or have any energy by themselves, but I do like to read about it and I also want to have a cool/interesting story behind my jewelry.

Organizing jewelry (part 2)

** On a personal note this week: I'm more than my social media.

I'm pretty sure I have jewelry for like 20 girls. Good piece of jewelry can make every outfit better, it can make you look like a rocker girl, princess or business woman in seconds. Also, eBay is usually my best friend when it comes to buying jewelry. I like big statement jewelry, but also small dainty pieces.

As with everything else, I have very little space for all of it so I constantly have to find different ways to keep everything organized. I personally lose the will to look for anything or wear some pieces of jewelry if I can't find them immediately. I need to keep it neat and accessible. I already made one post about this, Organizing jewelry (when you have tons of it), but things have changed a bit. Necklaces and bracelets are still in that order, but earrings and rings have changed their homes.

New in | summer-fall 2018 (part 1)

** On a personal note this week: The Fall Tag by Hailey

I still feel like I've been MIA even though I've been active here for 3 weeks now. I still feel like I'm starting fresh. I also have tons of ideas for this blog, but not enough time do actually do them all. That's why today you're going to see what I recently got. When I say recently, I mean in the past few months of me not blogging.

I also went for small shopping trips so I didn't do a haul type of post. Another thing that has happened here is I got some stuff at the beginning of summer and some just yesterday. So, that's why there are different photos and set-ups. OK, let me just show you what I got myself...

A pop of yellow

OK, let's first talk about how one page I used a lot, Polyvore, was sold so some other company and now the whole community is left without any of their works. I had more than 300 looks put together there and they're all gone. Without any warning. Thank God I used those looks for posts here so I have some saved, but my most recent ones are my favorites and they're gone forever.

Well, spring is back! Now that we're a bit pissed off and sad, I'll show you some outfits I managed to put together before the site went down. I have some more of these planned, but now I have to be very careful how I post these...

Note: Unlike any other fashion post from Polyvore so far, you won't be able to find links and prices of the items. Because the site no longer exists, unfortunately.

Organizing jewelry (when you have tons of it)

When you Google "organizing jewelry", you get all the perfectly lined necklaces, drawers full of boxes for each pair of earrings, those "trees", "wire dancers" that hold your jewelry and all different kinds of 'perfect storage'. However, we all know that it's not realistic to have a separate wall reserved just for jewelry. 

I, for instance, have very little space in my room so I have to pay attention to storing everything properly. I'm also a bit of a jewelry junkie so these two things don't go well together. Now, I found a perfect way to storage my jewelry.

Spring shoe collection

If I had to choose my one weakness when it comes to shopping, I couldn't. You know I love it all. Lately, I've put a break on buying bags and I'm all into shoes. With spring being my favorite season of all, this is my time. I made sure I got some fun pieces I'll love.

Some shoes are new, some are old. I think it's totally not necessary to buy shoes (or bags or clothes) each year. I don't blindly follow trends so I think I'll love these in the future too and I'll get few seasons out of them for sure.

How to style boyfriend jeans?

Boyfriend jeans came and they're not going away. At first, I didn't like the trend, I didn't get it. I'm still not fully on board, but I got myself one glittery boyfriend jeans and I, of course, had to think of how to wear them.

There are many styles, colors, cuts... I chose some random ones, but I really hope this will encourage you to wear something out of your comfort zone or just give you some ideas. These are all basically very casual, but more heels are going to be featured in upcoming posts.

Upcoming spring outfits (dresses + leather jacket)

I've said this many times, but I'll say it again: spring is my favorite season. I love the weather, clothes, nature... Everything. So I normally can't wait for spring to arrive. As we still have snow here (and it's supposed to be a lot warmer and sunnier), I just had to invite spring somehow.

Today I'm showing you these 6 outfits I put together for nice spring (or fall) days. I chose all dresses and leather jackets cause I've seen how this combination can turn out to be pretty great. I already have some other outfit posts in mind, but I'll start with this one.

Fashion & make-up & jewelry & skin care haul

Whenever I buy something new I plan on writing this post and I ask you on Twitter whether you'd like to see it and the answer is always "yes" and I've still never done it. So, I've finally done it! Over the past few two months I got some new stuff in all categories so I'm showing you all I got.

It will take me a while before I figure out how to get great pictures of clothes and I'm planning on doing a try-on post one day, but for now you'll get these. Also, my camera has a will on its own so there are different photos here, but you'll get it...

Winter night out

How long has it been since I last posted some outfit post? My 'fashion tab' says the last one was in December when I showed you 20 holiday outfits. So, it's been too long. It's currently winter here and, even though the strongest one should have been in December and January, February is so far the coldest month this winter.

Of course, cold weather and snow won't stop me from enjoying every moment of my free time. This includes going out for walks and going out meeting my friends for coffee and also going clubbing. Now, I've put together these 6 outfits I would wear on these days. Also have in mind that my everyday winter outfits are quite different from these cause it's freaking freezing outside. Also keep in mind, you're supposed to get rid of the jacket when you get somewhere and I assume all places have heating on.

Blogmas 2017: Recap (December, Blogmas, presents)

Blogmas 11: Somewhere In My Memory

I don't know am I suppose to write another Blogmas post after Christmas. I don't think this is how it works, but it's still holiday time, so I'm doing it.

This December has been the most hectic one that I can remember in quite a few years. I'll get into more details and I'll review my own blogging style. I'll also tell you what I got for Christmas and how it all went.

Blogmas 2017: 20 holiday outfits

Blogmas 5: Lonely this Christmas

I love fashion, I love putting together outfits and I love holidays. So this time of the year is very special in terms of my clothing and my style. I honestly loved creating these looks. Although I wanted to create all glamorous outfits, I know we don't all celebrate Christmas or New Year in some fancy place. Some of us have no opportunity and some just don't want to. This is why I included some regular holiday outfits you can rock anytime.
Honestly, I hope I'll be able to wear some fancy outfit this year, but I won't get my hopes too high. Until I figure that out, I created 20 looks for this holiday season.

Fluffy knitted leather

I've wanted (fake) leather jeans for quite a while now and I actually got them last year. The problem occurred when the time to style and wear them actually came. I had no clue how to put anything together with them. I always play safe and I've worn jeans all my life.

Fall fashion | 2017 no black! (part 2)

I hope you saw part one of this fashion post as I did some conventional fall looks there (meaning there are long pants in all outfits). This post would be more my style when I go out to meet my friends.

https://www.polyvore.com/no_286/set?id=229760070

As I said in part one, I decided to use only fall colors which also excluded black. Creating 12 looks without black was a real challenge for me so tell me how I did...

Fall fashion | 2017 no black! (part 1)

I already showed you what I got for fall in my New in: late summer/fall fashion 2017 post. However, I have many more ideas and not enough money to get it all so I'll show you some more fall outfits.

Note: All outfits can be found on the links below the pictures and all items are visible on the links. Just hover over the item and you'll see the name, brand and the price.

https://www.polyvore.com/no_284/set?id=229758211

For this post (and part 2) I've decided not to include anything black and go for only true fall colors! I'm a huge fan of black color in clothing and I think it's the easiest color to combine. I also go for the safest option when putting together a look. So this was a real challenge.

New in: late summer/fall fashion 2017

I've set up so many polls on Twitter asking whether you would like to see any of my fashion hauls. Every time I asked, majority was voting 'yes' and I never did it. Don't know why. Finally, after months of waiting, I'm here with a fashion haul and I tried on everything. This is supposed to be a fall edition, but summer clothing was on sale so I, of course, took some of that.

Don't mind my weird poses which are all the same. This is my first try on post. Also, I know all of these don't work well with my body, but I'm kinda making myself get in shape by this (?). Also, I now realize I should have put an actual outfit with jackets and all, but I just put on what I bought recently. And I also forgot to change my shoes. Luckily, these go with everything. It's gonna be better next time. Anyhow, let's get on with the photos.
Note: Please acknowledge my super improvised background. Yes, it's a white bed sheet.

Floral accent in chilly summer

I don't how it is at your place, but we're still in summer mode. I chose some outfits which were made around one floral piece. These are perfect for chilly summer nights (as well as these were I already published in a previous post Floral summer evening). For another summer outfits post read my Beach outfits | summer 2017 post.
