cropped / monochrome - with a splash of colour

Dear Lovelies,

It took me a while to accept the "showing a bit of skin" cropped shirt trend as it reminds me a fair bit of my teenage years in the 90's.
The main difference to back then is: never - really never - show your belly button.
I love high waisted skirts as I think they are most flattering for all female shapes and therefore this trend has found its way into my heart.

High Waisted Pants

Dear Lovelies,

There's nothing better on an overcast day than grabbing your favourite magazine from the shop next door and spending the afternoon snuggled up on the couch with a tea, some cupcakes and your favourite CD playing in the background.
Ok I lied, spending the whole day in a shopping centre would probably be at least equally good :-)

Anyway.
I'm in love with these high waisted pants at the moment, they are just so versatile! Wear them with a cropped top for a casual look or combine them with a silk shirt for the office.

The pants are currently available in Sheike stores or online *click here*, full-leather Stilettos are from Zara, the cropped top from Dotti and the bag is Phillip Lim for Target.
