OUTFIT | Breezeblocks.

Summer, is that you? Am I dreaming? No, this is actually happening. Tomorrow I'm getting my report card, and in a week I'll be taking my final exam for this year. This is just perfect. This palm-print top which you already saw in one of my previous posts, just got me pumped up for summer even more! I've also been wearing these biblical sandals quiet a lot- they just go with everything!

Me and my family went to the beach this past Saturday to a beach in the city of Ashdod and had a blast. I've actually managed to relax and look tan for like 15 minutes. Of course, I could not pass up a dish of ravioli. I will start going to the gym soon. Sigh.

Has your summer already started?

OUTFIT | Future Cat Lady.

Hey hey!
I hope your weekend is going well. I've been studying like crazy for my history final for the past couple days, and soon after this post goes up, I'll be back at my desk for literature. Summer, I'm begging you- hurry up. please.I just cannot wait for lazy movie days, my Europe trip, more blogging and just doing nothing.
Other than my repressed feelings, I'd like to introduce you guys to Charlie- my wonderful cat. She's 3 months old, and basically sleeps all day [me jealous] and I ADORE HER. I want more cats. Okay? Yea. MORE CATS.
I'm off studying and crying over my grades!

Summer 2013 Trend Report.

Hi there! It's safe to say summer is here. The sun is hot and bright, the amount of homework is getting smaller and it seems as though the line up of exams I have this month isn't so impossible. I thought it would be very appropriate to update you lovely humans on some of my favorite summer trends, that you will probably be seeing quiet a bit in upcoming outfit posts.

1. Bold Stripes.
Seems as though this trend never gets left out for summer. Designers and people in general simply cannot get enough of the charm of a little bit of a nautical touch in ones closet. It's classic, elegant, and timeless. I paired it with simpler items, to not distract they eyes. That Casio watch is so perfect- I must have one.

2. Graphic.
Bright, bold all-out-there prints have been making a huge splash in the world of fashion. I adore this trend! It allows one to make leave a strong mark wherever he/she chooses to go. There is no way anyone will be able to forget you if you where a skirt that screams "look at moi!!".

3. Minimalists. This might just be my favorite of all. Simplicity is the most beautiful form of flatter. Seriously, it is. No attention-seeking, distracting or eye-blinding fabric. This is the complete opposite of the graphic trend! This one is perfect for the ones who rather be "wallflowers" [don't judge me, I couldn't resist].

4. Denim Rompers.
If you've been roaming around tumblr way more than you need oops  you have probably seen more denim rompers that one person should/can see in a lifetime. Okay, I might be extraditing a bit, but it's impossible to ignore the comeback these babes have been making.

Which trends are you looking forward to this summer?

PS- I'll probably be taking a break from blogging until June 27th when I finish with my exams! 

OUTFIT | Hey June

Hi there everyone!
My weekend has been great so far. I basically did nothing but sleep, take photos, watch Ferris Bueller's Day Off for the 10th time and eat ravioli again. I need to stop with all this italian food, but deep down I know it's never going to happen. I mean, who can say know to delicious fattening food?
Any way, on June 10th I'm taking my History bagrut (Israeli A-level) and I'm freaking out. I just want to live inside my bed and never see my textbooks ever again.
On another note- how in the freakin' world is it June already?!
Hope your weekend is going great!

NEW IN | Bershka + Zara

Hello there fellow shopaholics.
While I'm waiting for my pasta to cook (hopefully I won't burn the kitchen) I decided to introduce to you some new pieces I've recently added to my closet.
I know one of my latest posts was a little haul as well, but school has been so stressful so shopping has been a great relaxer [is that even a word?].

My first stop was Bershka. The store was filled with bright colors, crop tops, shorts, and gladiator sandals AKA summer. I got a pretty basic top that will probably be one of my most used items, a simple tropic-print skirt and my one and only love- a moon icon necklace.

My next stop: Zara. I think I wanted pretty much everything they had. Everything was just so perfect. But it was getting late, and one does not simply pass up a bowl of ravioli. I decided to get these unbelievably perfect 60's inspired wedges. They are super comfortable, and I cannot wait to take them out for a spin.

What do you think about the stuff I got?

Modern Girls.

Hey there lovelies!
Suits are most definitely a key piece in every woman's closet. The defined silhouettes, androgynous vibe and touch of masculinity all make up the story of a confident, ambitious woman that knows what she wants. With the right cut (and shoe), a suit can make your legs look as if they go on and on, give the illusion of a tiny waist and an overall look that will make anyone look twice as you walk down the street.

Saint Laurent Pre-Fall 2013.
[If you ask me, there is no one more perfect than Freja Beha for this campaign.]

We should all let go of the idea that suits belong to the working businesswoman. Too stereotypical. Simply by mixing different textures, colors and prints you can turn your working clothes to a party uniform.

Suits are basically wonderful, classic, elegant and amazing. I need one. We all need one.

What are your thoughts about suits?

NEW IN | H&M

It's official. H&M is addicting. I literally want everything they have in stores right now.
A couple days ago, I went to get my passport photos taken (I'm getting an I.D!!!) at the mall, and had 15 minutes to swing by h&m. From palm-print bathing suits, to high-low jersey skirts: I wanted every piece in my closet. Thanks to the lack of time, I had to settle for this gorgeous jacket I found on sale and an awesome necklace.
I. need. more.




Other than  the jacket and necklace, I got the H&M catalog, which made me want to become a shopaholic even more. The stunning shoots and editorials with Terry Richardson, and gorgeous articles scented with Summer (and freedom from school) was a perfect morning read.

What are your thoughts about the stuff I got?
