Necklaces By Themelina Panagiotou

   About two weeks ago a lovely jewellery designer, named Themelina Panagiotou, sent to me these two gorgeously looking necklaces. The truth is that i've always had a huge crush on statement necklaces, but when these two babies "arrived" i have to admit that i fall in love with them even more!

   Their simple but chic design make them perfect for day and night time, too! They are super wearable, so i thought it would be a great idea to show you two different ways ( a dressy one and formal one) that you can style them. So, shall we begin...?

Here is the first one:

   I decided to pair it with an oversized vintage sweater that has a bright blue colour, in order to really make the necklace pop! Then, i wore a black skater skirt and finished the whole outfit with some black lace-up booties. This outfit is perfect for a date or just a night out with your girlfriends!

Here is the second one:

   This one i paired it with a beige oversized sweater, just in order to make the brown detail stand out! Then i wore my favorite skinny jeans with my black ankle boots and finish everything with my black -faux- leather jacket. This outfit is super comfy, so it's perfect for running errands or just for going shopping!

   Please don't forget to check out her blog and like her facebook page! If YOU wanna buy some of her amazing jewellery, then feel free to send her a message through facebook!
   A huge thanks to Themelina for sending me her lovely creations and to all of you for reading this post!

A/W 2013-14 Trend: Full Skirts

   They are below the knee, they are wide, and they look super feminine. Full skirts are so trendy right now, since they were spotted at the Bottega Veneta, Calvin Klein, Prada etc runways shows. 
   They will mostly flatter a tall girl's silhouette, but if you are petite and you still wanna try out this new trend, then i suggest going for the full skirt's short version, instead.
   This type of skirt will look great with a fitted sweater and a pair of classic pumps, but if you believe that preppy-style is not really your thing, then just feel free to pair it with a pair of flats, in order to give a daytime vibe to your outfit. Just remember to keep it chic and classy! 
   Here's how the models rocked this lovely trend, at the catwalk:

 Philosophy by Natalie Ratabesi, Jonathan Saunders, Calvin Klein

   If you need some ideas on how you can style your favorite full skirt, then just get inspired from the following outfits!

How To Style A Leopard Coat

   The truth is that i am a huge fan of -almost- every single print there is out there. Leopard print/floral print/zebra print..., you name it, i love it. So, if i had to pick the one that i love the most, i would probably say leopard print or floral print...or leopard or floral. See...? I can't even decide, since i pretty much love both equally!
   But, today's post is all about the good old leopard print, and more specifically i am gonna write about four cool ways that you can style a leopard printed coat.

1)Black And White
   Every time you don't know how to style a colorful piece -in this case a leopard coat-, just "play it safe" by pairing it with some simple and neutral colours, like black and white. This outfit could be recreated by everyone, since all you basically need are some basic pieces, like a white swetaer, a pair of black skinny jeans, a black handbag, a pair of black ankle booties, and -of course- a leopard coat. Super cool, huh...?!


2)The Red Details
   I have to admit that i absolutely love/love/love the leopard-red combination. It is kind of unexpected but at the same time so chic and elegant! So, feel free to pair your leopard printed coat with some red/orang-ish pieces, and don't forget to keep the rest of your look simple and neutral. (white top-black bottoms)


3)Leopard And Leopard
   I never thought that wearing leopard with leopard would look so awesome, until i came across this amazing picture. Breaking the <<One animal print at the time>> "rule", this outfit is chic, elegant and -above all- really unique!


4)"Total" Black
   Leopard print looks absolutely amazing when paired with black, so why don't you wear your beloved leopard coat with a black top/ black jeans/ a black handbag and a pair of black heels...? Also, if you feel like the result is too black for you, then just wear white shoes instead!


Thanks a lot for reading everyone! Also, sorry for the lack of posts lately, but i 've been crazy-busy this week!
Lastly, i just started writing fashion/beauty related articles for an online greek magazine called RouaMat, so i would really love it if you could go and check them out! Just click over HERE!

A/W 2013-14 Trend: Navy Blue

   Today's post is all about navy blue, which is also known as the hottest colour of this season. Navy blue is such a classic and sophisticated colour, that can look elegant on -pretty much- everyone.
   It's only a touch softer than pure black, so if you are the "i-always-wear-black" type of girl, then this is probably the best time to add some navy blue details to your wardrobe! Feel free to try a navy blue coat,sweater,skirt or jacket, like the models at the runway shows.
   It looks amazing with all shades of grey and brown, but if you wanna take your outfit to your next level, pair it with the good old leopard print, and create an unexpected -but still really chic looking- combination!
   If you need more inspiration, then take a look at the folowing pictures:

   Here are some cool ways that you can adopt this amazing colour trend:

5 Fall Outfits From Rachel Bilson

   I truly believe that it is really interesting to see what celebrities wear on the red carpet and at special events, but, what i find even more interesting is what they wear on their actual everyday life. Their outfits are effortless and casual, but still, realy trendy and chic.
   So, today i am gonna write about Rachel Bilson, whose style i find pretty cool and cute!

1)The Navy Blue Blazer
   Navy blue is definitely one of the hottest colours of this season, and a navy blue blazer is such a cool way to adort this colour trend! Pair it with a camel brown crossbody bag, and finish your look with some neutral (white,denim,beige) details!
     


2)The Military Jacket
   Olive green looks great with grey and brown, so why don't you try pairing your military jacket with a grey handbag and a pair of brown ankle booties...? This outfit is edgy, but still very cute and feminine!         
   

3)The Denim Jacket
   This outfit is all about basic pieces: a denim jacket, a white top, a pair of black shorts and black tights, and -of course-, a pair of black combat boots! It is a super-easy-to-put-together outfit, so why don't you give it a try...?
         

4)The Grey Cardigan
   A cardigan is a great alternative to your everyday leather jacket, plus, it will keep you extra warm and cozy all day long! If you own a grey one, pair it with a brown handbag and a pair of your favorite ankle boots. Keep the rest of the outfit simple and neutral (white top-denim pants), and you are ready to go!

5)The Brown Sweater
   A chunky sweater is an absolute must-have piece for the winter time, so grab one from your closet, pair it with your favorite boyfriend jeans, finish your outfit with a pair of lace-up booties and you are done! So easy, so chic!

Thanks a lot for reading this post!

A/W 2013-14 Trend: Houndstooth Print

   If someone would ask me about the hottest prints of the season, plaid would definitely be at the top and houndstooth would come after. Houndstooth print was spotted at the runway shows mainly on coats, pants, skirts and sweaters, as well.
   It originates in Scotland in the 1800's and it was originally worn by women of the upper class. Even though its traditional colours are black and white, feel free to experiment with other colours as well, and create a unique and diffrent look!
   But, if you wanna keep it safe and simple, then here are some of my favorite houndstooth printed items:


Here's where you can get them: 1234 and 5.

   Need some ideas on how you can style YOUR houndstooth printed items...? Get inspired from the amazing fashionistas down below!
                                             
               

    



Thanks a lot for reading! Till the next post, take care everyone!

How To Wear White In The Fall

   As some of you might already know,there is a fashion "rule" that goes something like this: "Never wear white after Labor Day", meaning that you shouldn't wear white pieces after the first Monday of September, because at that time of the year autumn is just around the corner, so you should probably start wearing darker colours like black, grey, burgundy, and -of couse- stay away from white!
   But, are there really "rules" in fashion...? Well, i don't know about that, but THIS i can say for sure: "White could totally be worn during the winter time as well. It will make any fall outfit look fresh, chic, and much more interesting!
   So, here are four super chic ways that you can wear white in the fall:

1)The Denim Pants
   Every single girl should own a pair of white denim pants. During the summer you can style them in so many different ways, but during the fall try pairing them with dark colours, in order to achieve an interesting colour-contrast!
               
          


2)The Leather Jacket
   It is no lie that you can never really go wrong with the super classy and super chic combo of black and white. But, if you wanna take your outfit to the next level, try holding a burgundy bag, and add an extra glam to your look!


3) The Ruffle Skirt
   If you own a white skirt that you really enjoyed wearing in the summer, then i 've got some good news for you, girl! You can totally keep wearing it, but now, pair it with some winter-y colours, like black and grey!


4) The -faux- Fur Coat
   When the temperature drops and the weather is super cold, a fur coat will definitely become a good friend of yours! It will keep you warm and cozy, plus, it will instantly make your outfit look chic and classy!


So, that's all for today's post! I hope you enjoyed it and found it helpful! Also, don't forget to follow "Just Smile With Style" on bloglovin!
