Chicago

What I wore: H&M Skirt, Tibi Top, Zara Heels, Mytheresa PD Proenza Schouler Bag, Gorjana Necklace, Kenneth Jay Lane and Marc by Marc Bracelets, Margiela Rings, Essie California Coral, RVCVC, SPG, mf, ts

Finally managed to update the blog! By now I have actually been home for quite some time and am currently in Moscow. 
I have to say during my road-trip this summer there was just so much happening and I wanted to fully immerse myself in the experience and not worry about taking outfit pictures and uploading them every day. 
Also when I actually came back from the US I had some troubles with my laptop and I still haven't managed to upload all the pictures we took.
Here is an outfit I wore in Chicago to go to dinner and a jazz club, it was actually quite cold, but I still decided to go for a skirt, because to me summer is a feeling and not something dictated by the weather, also we spent most of the evening inside. For fall I would top this look with a chic cape like this one by Temperely (on sale)ts, saks, nk http://bit.ly/2NtLKxJ

Off to New York

July 19, 2013

unbenannt (2 von 4).jpg unbenannt (3 von 4).jpg unbenannt (1 von 4).jpg unbenannt (4 von 4).jpg unbenannt (1 von 1).jpg

What I wore: Iris&Ink Shorts, H&M Blouse, Zara Blazer, Asos Heels, Miu Miu Bag, (similar SDJ H, FF)

Rebecca Minkoff Bracelet, Topshop Rings, Essie Status Symbol 


Actually I am already in New York, but I totally forgot to publish the draft for this post in the morning. I don't know how often I will be able to update the blog while I am in the US, so for more frequent updates follow my Instagram here

I love those shorts, another great purchase I made this season. I am trying to incorporate more and more things into my wardrobe that are wearable and I can at least think of five different ways to combine it with something already in my closet. I am working towards a more edited wardrobe, because I can't stand it to look at a full closet each morning and still having nothing to wear. What are your tricks to avoid buyer's remorse?

Casual Chambray

July 13, 2013

unbenannt (4 von 5).jpg unbenannt (3 von 5).jpg unbenannt (5 von 5).jpg unbenannt (2 von 5).jpg

What I wore: Zara Skort, Topshop Denim Shirt, Isabel Marant Sandals, Alexander Wang Bag, Margiela Rings, Alexander McQueen Bracelet, Ray-Ban Sunglasses, Gorjana Necklace, joseph, BF , mrp, sb

 A casual look from a few days ago. When the weather is this hot, I really go for comfort over dressing up. This Zara skort has proven to be one of the best purchases I've made this season. It is so versatile and comfortable, I just love pairing it with different things from my closet.
 On another note, in less than a week I will start my American Roadtrip and I couldn't be more excited. Two friends and I will tour the country for a month, visiting different cities like Chicago or Miami. My first stop will be New York, I've only been once and am so excited to go back and explore the city a little more. I would really appreciate it, if you would give me a few tips on what places to check out! Have a lovely weekend:) d

Flower Girl

July 2, 2013

unbenannt (2 von 4).jpg unbenannt (3 von 4).jpg unbenannt (4 von 4).jpg unbenannt (1 von 4).jpg

What I wore: Zara Dress, Denim Jacket and Sandals (all on sale now!), Asos Flower Garland, Miu Miu Bag, Margiela Rings, 

It's been some time that I wore a whole Zara look, I am always trying to steer clear of dressing head to toe in one label, but I picked up the dress and jacket in the sale and they just work so well together. I added some gold sandals and gold jewelry, a few dainty necklaces and rings, to make the outfit a little more put together, but still keep a kind of bohemian feel with the flower crown.
I wore this outfit to a friend's garden party. He throws one every year after the exams and it is always so much fun. I also think that with a few small changes (red lipstick or maybe some red sandals) this would be a great outfit for the 4th of July.
Do you have a go-to look for a garden party or barbecue? Do you Americans already have your outfits for celebrating the 4th figured out?

unbenannt (2 von 5).jpg unbenannt (4 von 5).jpg unbenannt (1 von 5).jpg unbenannt (3 von 5).jpg unbenannt (5 von 5).jpg

What I wore: River Island Skirt, Topshop T-Shirt, Bespoke Blazer (similar here), Isabel Marant Sandals (brown version here), 
Miu Miu Bag, YSL and Margiela Rings (cheaper version here), Kenneth Jay Lane Bracelet, Karen Walker Sunglasses

I actually wanted to post this look yesterday, but I got my hands on the new Dan Brown novel and spend all day reading. 
I just love it when you can dive into a book and the everything else is secondary. I especially enjoy Dan Brown's books, 
because I study Art History and know most of the paintings, buildings, etc he writes about.

Now on to the outfit. My dad had this blazer made for me when he was abroad and at first I was a little hesitant about 
the bright red, but now I love it. Paired with an all white ensemble it looks fresh and lends a great pop of color to an otherwise monochrome look.

The Palms

June 15, 2013

unbenannt (3 von 3).jpg unbenannt (2 von 3).jpg unbenannt (1 von 3).jpg

What I wore: Zara Dress (recent), Topshop Leather Jacket, Alexander Wang Ankle Boots (love these), Reed Krakoff Bag, Maison Martin Margiela Rings, Asos Cuff

This is one of my favorite ways to dress. Cute dress toughened up with ankle boots and a leather jacket!  I recently got this Zara dress and can't wait to style it in different ways. Don't you just love the print? Gets me all excited for my American road trip this summer!
Oh the wanderlust is always strong around this time of year, and all those Instagram shots of people traveling makes studying at the end of the semester that much harder. But for now it's back to the books and googling restaurants and hard to find places in America. If you have any cool tips where to stay, eat, shop, etc I would love it if you let me know in the comments below!:)

What I wore: Isabel Marant Etoile Dress (old), Isabel Marant Sandals, UO Belt, Celine Bag, Kenneth Jay Lane Bracelet, Topshop Hearts Necklace, Maison Martin Margiela RingsKaren Walker Sunglasses

If you know me or have read my blog for some time, you know that I love leopard print. 
I used to dislike it for most of my life, because my mom would always wear it, acting as if it was a neutral. But now I completely understand her and in the end we sometimes can't help it but turn out exactly like our mothers, which we dread so much. In this case, I am okay with it, though;)  

Also I can't stress it enough, GFC and Google Reader will no longer exist from July on, so make sure to follow me on Bloglovin to keep getting updates about my blog!

Polka Dot Denim

June 4, 2013

unbenannt (2 von 3).jpg unbenannt (3 von 3).jpg

What I wore: River Island Skirt, Asos Shirt (similar) , Zara Boots, Miu Miu Bag (or here), Ray Ban Sunglasses, Saint Laurent and Topshop Rings, Bcbg and Marc by Marc Bracelets

Finally I am able to upload, yesterday was such a busy day! 
I had an exam in the morning, classes afterwards and then I decided to get some frames for pictures I got three years ago. 
Getting two frames turned into an afternoon of shopping for my apartment, all while carrying two huge frames in the rain. I felt a little like Anne Hathaway in The Devil wears Prada where she has to carry those boogie boards and hits everybody. 
But I managed to get some furniture for my balcony, as it is really tiny, it was so hard to find something that would fit. 
Hope you had a productive Monday as well!

Denim

May 28, 2013

unbenannt (3 von 3).jpg unbenannt (2 von 3).jpg

What I wore: Topshop Jeans and Denim Shirt, Mango Heels, Marc by Marc Jacobs Bag, American Eagle Necklace, Nasty Gal and CC Skye Bracelets

Last weekend I wore the Canadian Tuxedo. I stumbled across this nickname for denim-on-denim outfits on some blogs now and just love it. I combined mine with one of my oldest bags and big shades to cover up the night before. 
On another note, I love nothing more than small cross-body bags, but I seldom have the chance to wear them, since in my everyday life I need more of an Olsen-sized bag. 
But I always wear them after my exams, since I can't be bothered anymore with huge bags filled with books, so they have a special place in my heart, since they are the sign that exams are over.

Easy Does It

What I wore: H&M Skirt, Vince T-Shirt, Pour la Victoire Pumps, Balenciaga Clutch, Asos Earcuff, Cast of Vices and CC Skye Bracelets, American Eagle Necklace

I wore this outfit last week to one of my best friend's birthday parties, I really had no idea what to wear, so I threw on this look, which is one of my fail-safe combinations. Leather skirt + tee + some heels always works, no matter where you are going. 

On another note, tonight is the Life Ball in Vienna, it is a huge party and at the same time a fundraiser for Aids research. A lot of celebrities come every year to show their support. This year the theme is 1001 nights and the fashion show is by Roberto Cavalli. 
If you want to know more about it and see the party from behind the scenes, follow me on Instagram (@thestyledepartment) and I will keep you updated all night!
