How to wear animal print?

I've always thought that animal prints have a tiny tacky touch but I've now discovered that it doesn't have to be that way!!

Here you have a couple of examples of how to combine animal prints in a clever way to be classy and elegant.

The general rule is: only one animal print and mix it with monochromatic accessories, as simple as that.

1- What always work: wear it with BLACK

2. Play it safe: Animal print and NEUTRALS

3. Risk it! PLAID and animal print

4. Dare! Animal print and GOLD / sequins

5. Cool but safe:  leather

Item of the month: Valentino's birds cape

I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it and I can't wait until the first clones start popping up in the fashion universe! 

I'm speaking about Valentino's pretty bird Cape (A/W 2014). 

I'm not a fashion guru but I am pretty sure that this piece will be one most copied items of the upcoming months. 

                             

And for those who can't get enough of it, here's the matching bag!

Stolen DYI idea of the day

When I look at the pics of the fashion shows I feel pity for myself for not being rich to buy all those pretty things. 

That's why I'm so thankful that there are creative bloggers around the world to share their ideas!  

Today I wanted to share with you this Jimmy Choo - DYI project from HonestlyWTF

Autumn love

Right, Autumn is already here and winter is approaching, I know but, I am still wearing my skirts with bare legs, the transition from summer to winter is always tough for me…

Anyways, I always need a small motivation to start thinking about warmer clothes, when summer's over. So this time.......here it is

This week I came across this outfit and I thought, yeah, that's it! 

I love the mix of the sequins with tartan and the golden accessories, so pretty!!. 

Actually this was posted on another blog last year but it's so refreshing and modern that I need to have it

Enjoy autumn shopping!
