Xmas Fashion Wishlist

Xmas Fashion Wishlist by greenvogueglam 

I've had my eye on a few fashion items to wish for for this Christmas.

1. Zara Leather Skirt. I love A line skirts and this black suede number is right up my alley. I've been eyeing for a while and am hoping somebody will gift me one this Christmas. I can definitely see myself wearing this with my leather over the knee boots and a black cashmere sweater. Burgundy lips and I'll be the happiest chicest blogger on the planner.

2. Zara Lace Top. I haven't yet decided if and how I would wear this, but with all the hype behind lace and skimpy little numbers to wear in broad daylight, I'd give it a try. Worst case scenario I will relegate it to my bedroom, much to Mystery's delight.

3. Apricot Burgundy Long Sleeve Knit Dress from newlook.com. It's festive yet easy to wear, comfy yet dressy. Do I need to add that it's under 40$? Definitely wish list material!

4. Zara Masculine Coat. They call it masculine, I call it perfect. I've tried this one on one of my many Zara excursions. It looks and feels very luxurious despite being around 130€. The material looks super nice, the cut is exceptional and all in all an awesome little coat to throw some of your hard earned career girl money on. Or point a boyfriend or mother in its direction and that does the trick as well!

5. Nira Leather Biker Jacket from Reiss. I've saved the best for last. It's also the most expensive. You'll need more than 600€ for this baby, but I have to say I fell in love as soon I saw it! The color, the leather, the bikerness, the idea of wearing it with a glitter dress and sky high pumps. I need this jacket. So do you!

As you can see, my obsession for Zara is quite obvious.

Glitter Snow Bunny For Christmas

Snow Bunny For Christmas by greenvogueglam

Hey little sinisters!

With Christmas fast approaching, I've started to think about Christmas and New Year's outfits, and everything in between. 

You wil agree with me that this is the year of glitter. We've seen it everywhere from shoes to bags, tops to pants. It's on our eyelids and nails, in our hair from DIY and definitely in our head.

I'm so excited about wearing a pleiad of glitter outfits these holidays and I've selected three different dresses that I'll be drawing inspo from.

I love red glitter and this spaghetti strap number is sure to make heads turn wherever you decide to wear it! It would also look really well with a faux fur shawl or jacket on top and a pair of black suede over the knee boots.

The gold one is just plain gorgeous and I have to say it reminds me of a slightly more festive Herve Leger type dress. Uuu. Will google that immediately and make a list of potential dresses for these holidays. The pattern in which the glitter is laid is super flattering for any body type and the color will flatter any skin type. Pair it with high heeled sensation shoes (maybe red or silver) and cover everything up in a white wool coat. Definitely a show stopper.

The black long sleeved mini is by far the most versatile. The glitter is subtle and if you have to go to your in-laws for Christmas dinner this will do the trick. It's covered enough to make it proper, yet stylish enough to make a statement. I'm currently having one just like this made especially for that occasion and I'm planning to wear it with sheer tights and ankle booties and Guerlain's red lipstick. Bouncy waves for my hair and my grandma's antique brioche will complete my look. 

Of course, if you opt to wear this to a party, put on some dark sheer tights (if possible the one's with the back seam visible) and silver or cold super high pumps and a smokey eye and you're going to be smoking hot. Or should I say, glittering hot?

Kiss and Peace

P.S. All the dresses are from johnlewis.com and they range from 360€ to 540€.

Fall/Winter Essentials: The Denim Overall

Fall/Winter Essentials: The Denim Overall by greenvogueglam 

You know the summer in over when your job comes knocking at the door.

I'm taking going back to work in a stride because I've been fantasising about a few Fall/Winter items I feel (to be read: I don't need but will somehow end up purchasing nonetheless) I should add to my wardrobe.

One of them is a denim overall. Or pinafore. Or romper. I get lost in all the names.

So here you go. One denim marvel. Two styles. Follow the link back to Polyvore if you want to find out the prices and websites I took these from.

Fall/Winter Essentials: The Cape

Fall/Winter Essentials: The Cape by greenvogueglam

Hello Fall/Winter Season!

As soon as my birthday is over it could practically snow and I couldn't be bothered. I am a fall person. I relish the golden hues of falling leaves and the fuzzy warm feeling of cashmere sweaters. 

Fashion goes back to being a game of puzzle where one has to find the perfect pieces and put them all together in a snug fit.

My fav F/W essential right now?

*Trumpets*

The cape.

I especially love this abominably expensive Valentino cape that I shall not name the price. But it looks amazing. Both styles would look great for a work day or a day out roaming the city. 

Your pick.

Kiss and Peace

Miss Sinister

P.S. the black fringed Sara Battaglia bag was on my Bday list but Mystery said he didn't like it. 

*raised eyebrow* really? like really? 

Looks like I'll have to just gift myself yet another bag.

Kid mood

Kid mood by greenvogueglam 

"- I'm feeling pretty kiddy today.

 - You, Miss Sinister, are not a kid. Since you do not belong to a milky white goat and I believe you were not born on some alpine pasture, you do not frolic and you do not butt and bite. You, if anything, are a child."

I was playing around on Polyvore when this very real conversation came back into my head from my high school days arguing (please read this as "having a slightly different opinion on English drama") with my English Literature Professor who never truly accepted that the English language had so successfully propagated itself onto foreign lands where it had wildly mutated into so many different variations. She was profoundly adamant to do something with my accent and with all things American that came out of my mouth, including my exaggerated use of "-ish" to create adverbs and adjectives.

A kid is a mini goat, the baby goat. So it would crack me up how every time I would say something she would make it her business to etymologically correct me and show me the exact nature of my wrongs.

She didn't used to call Miss Sinister, but she did call us Miss + Last Name. 

Oops. I did it again. Miss + Surname. 

:)

Such fun my heart yet needs to find in the surrounding reality that succeeded high school.

Some kiddo inspiration today for all you kids out there!

Kiss and Peace

An Incorrigible Miss Sinister

P.S. She did manage to inspire a lifelong passion for etymology in me so apparently not all is lost with the quirky little American sounding Romanian.

Martian Summer Heat

Summer Heat by greenvogueglam

I don't know about you, but I am steadfastly melting. The air is hot, the iced drinks last for less than 2 seconds, the ground feels like something one might feel when on vacation on Mars, and clothes have become unbearable. 

As I write this, I am literally dying in my undies. Please excuse my bloggeristic nakedness.

With this cataclysmic weather in mind, I managed to put together an apocalyptic inspiration set that contains some of the basic things I would need to feel better:

- a Cosmo. Iced. Served. Keeping it coming.

- some ice-cream. Potentially whole.

- some Bvlgari earrings. One does need to stay fresh in many ways.

- flowers. That don't wilt and die within 5 minutes of entering my sauna like house.

- a new bag. For no reason. It's just sales season.

What do you need during this ridiculous heat wave?

Kiss and Peace

Good morning!

Are you ready for the 4th of July? 

I know I am!

Can't wait to share with you tomorrow!

Meanwhile, enjoy my morning 4th of July inspiration set!

And Bruce Springsteen's perfect behind, probably the best made in the US produce of all time!

Summer Blues

Summer Blues by greenvogueglam featuring pop art

Cynthia Rowley blue dress, €350 / Lilly Pulitzer clothing / Chiara Ferragni platform shoes, €265 / Cynthia Rowley backpacks bag, €175 / Oscar de la Renta flower necklace, €320 / Dangle charm / Borsalino summer hat, €300 / Tech accessory, €31 / Oliver Gal Artist Co pop art, €175 / SmilingShoes.com / SmilingShoes.com

Good morning everybody!
The warm weather and my ever-growing wish for a seaside escape inspired me to create this set.
I've just discovered a bunch of Romanian designers I never knew existed and in light of my travelling there next week for some family celebrations (yup, I'm going to be eating my weight in sweets for a week straight), I was considering paying them a visit and buying a few things.
The red sandals that are just peeping under the heading and the white fringed bag are just an example of the awesomeness of SmilingShoes.com (Romanian brand that delivers everywhere! Yay!) Their sandals are beautifully crafted and in a wide array of colors, not to mention that no more than a couple go for more than 100€.
I will keep you posted about anything I buy from them.

I also have to upload some pics of my new shades. :) I'll keep mum for the moment.

Last but not least, are you just as obsessed with straw hats as I am? I saw this awesome Borsalino one that had a decent price and I know they tend to last a lifetime. But unfortunately, I forgot about it for the rest of my trip to Milan and now I don't know if I should order it online since I haven't tried it on. Hmmm.

Anyway, will come back with some extra pics from Milan shortly.

May Garden Wedding

Something I made a few days ago.

Isn't it absolutely inspiring?

I could easily see myself wearing it to dinner just as much as to a wedding party.

Jungle Fever

Good morning!
Had a bit of fun on Polyvore, mixing my new obsession, the grey sweater in the centre from Romanian designer Ioana Ciolacu. I went for a jungle feel and this came out.
I think it's missing some pants but couldn't find anything that I liked so...

Coachella Calling

Coachella isn't in the plans unless it moves to Italy too, but if I was going this would totally be what I would wear.

Do you like pyjama pants?

Wednesday Magic by greenvogueglam featuring patterned pants

Everywhere I look nowadays I see pyjama-style silk pants fluttering on every type of body imaginable and in combined wildly with the most unthinkable accessories. And I love it!

Ever since I bought my first light blue and white linen pyjama style pants two years ago in Positano (mental post-it:must take a pic and post it here), I have been secretly wishing everybody would just get on board with wearing pyjama pants.

And low and behold, everybody had been craving and wishing for the same thing because last year and this year more than ever, long, flow, unflattering yet totally fabulous pyjama style pants are everywhere.

I haven't yet pulled my linen ones out from the summer boxes and yes, I have boxes to store summer attire because if not, I would wear everything all the time and people are weird about doing that here in Italy. You're supposed to wear winterables and then summerables and don't mix them or they'll stare you down with their innate, unattainable fashion sense right back to whatever foreign country you came from. Gotta love'em!

Yesterday I woke really early (damn you Wednesday), grabbed my brand-new, bought on sale Bershka black and white pyjama-style pants, a crisp white  Dolce&Gabbana shirt, my worn-out purple Converse sneakers and a very old H&M jeans jacket that I refuse to part with.

No make-up (it was either the make-up or the yoga, I chose the latter), took 5 pictures and went to work asap.

Last evening I got inspired to create the set at the top of the page.

It's a slightly different take on what I wore yesterday but I love it. I should have posted this yesterday, but I had dinner with Mr. Mystery and got sidetracked by his adorable self.

It also made me think I need to get a pair of white sneakers, like yesterday.

Kiss and Peace

Not completely heel-less, but just stuck on kitten or midi heels since their just so darn cute and comfortable.
