Anne Hathaway hasn’t been awarded but In my opinion she was the queen of the red carpet. I think she was the best dressed woman of the evening. Her shining dress from Armani Prive was beautiful and elegant. She looked glamorous.
Classic and chic black gown from Elie Saab was a perfect choice for the red carpet. And those fantastic emerald earings. Angelina Jolie looked just marvellous.
Alicia keys looked stunning and subtle in this gorgeous lilac dress from Armani Prive.
Evan Rachel Wood in Elie Saab gown. I love not only the dress but the way actress looks in it- her pale skin correspond perfectly with the ligt shade of the dress.
I do not own any piece of designer clothing. I like entering designer’s websites just to watch those pretty things or find some inspiration All that stuff is just to expensive for me. Besides I don’t like spend too much for clothes because get bored with them easily no matter how beautiful or pricey they are. I prefer to buy a few things from high street brands instead of one designer piece. Today I discovered it’s a right attitude.
I just fell in love with a pair of Nine West sandals. Those colors are exceptional and so eye-catching. Firstly I spotted the flats but soon I discovered there also were similar heels. Both are beautiful but I think I go for flats. I haven’t bought any casual shoes recently and these look so lovely and comfortable, just perfect for summer.
Today I’ve been at Zara and got a pair of lovely pink ruffled heels. While I was waiting for a shop assistant to bring me my size I noticed that my shoes were also available in orange and were gorgeous too. Eventually I took the pink ones but I’ve decided to buy orange shoes this season. Such a juicy and bold colour will brighten up every outfit. When I was searching through the web for perfect shoes (I found a nice pair at asos.com) I found some more interesting orange items.

Denim is timeless. It never was out of date (and never will be for sure). I don’t know anyone who wouldn’t own at least one pair of jeans. Today I’ve been searching through my favourites online shops and found some interesting denim pieces. What I liked the most is the playsuit. It will look great and effortlessly with any flat sandals and across body bag or more glamorous with heeled gladiators and gold sparkling jewelry.

Light shades brings to my mind sunny and lazy days of springtime (especially when there’s still cold outside).Pastel colours not only lighten up the look they also make it so relaxed. I always choose some pastels pieces when I want to get this subtle, romantic look or when I’m aiming for cool and fresh style. I try to keep accessories tan as I think they look pretty good with light colours.

Frills are so gorgeous. One ruffle piece make every outfit more feminine. I discovered that ruffles look really good in black which is classic and very stylish colour. Those pretty and girly frills become more elegant and chic when they are black.

I never was a fan of the 80’s so I wasn’t excited when they were back two years ago. After some time I have changed my judgement and found some of 80’s style quite nice and interesting. My opinion about boy fitted jackets is even more positive - I think they are fabulous. Boy fit blazer can be worn with anything - jeans and t-shirt, minidress, ruffled skirt, trainers, heels or boots. Loose fit and rolled-up sleeves give relaxed and casual look. boy fit blazer is one of my key pieces for this spring.

I am truly happy that across the body bags are back. I wanted to buy one a few months ago but shops offered only large shoulder bags or grab clutches (luckily I found one in second hand). I know that large bags are useful because they can hold a lot but I usually need only mobile and wallet to carry with me. Clutches are cute but they keep hands occupied. Across body bags hold all necessary things and keep my hand free. I especially like casual, middle sized, square shaped ones.

One of this season must haves are tassels. Fringes look really fantastic when they whirl and wave as you move. I especially like long fringes ( just like on black studded bag) because they make this effect of swinging more spectacular. Fringes are perfect choice to complete gipsy chic and will look lovely with 70′ style.
