Forever & Always Black

Hi, I'm Sara and I'm addicted to black. They say the first step is to admit it and, although I'm obsessed with pastel colors, I realize that black is the winning color in my wardrobe. Be it for a long day at work, going to brunch with my friends, taking a coffee break or even for a night out -- black never fails me. When I wake up on the wrong side of the bed or simply not in the mood to change, black becomes my best friend during my darkest of hours (no pun intended). 

Maybe this addiction will change during the upcoming warm weather. Who knows! However, I'm certain one thing will never change -- black will always be the new black. 



Love,
S

Black & Denim

Let's talk about clothing! What a dilemma every day when you wake up to your closet and ask the million dollar question, "What should I wear?" You want to wear a blouse and then you remember you used it two days before; instead of putting it at the end of your closet, take it out and accessorize! I believe it is more interesting and original to learn how to wear the same piece over and over with different accessories, than wearing new pieces ever day -- and, it saves you money! Just take Olivia Palermo as an example, wear what you love every time you want to in different ways instead of wearing what everybody's wearing thinking that it's "fashionable".

The key is to be organized and selective. An organized closet can help you more than you think and picking your outfit the night before saves a lot of time as well. Remember that it is not about quantity it is about quality. You can have 10 great pieces in your wardrobe that you can mix and match around 25 times! Think about it next time you go shopping.

Love,
S

Cold Mornings

These last couple of days I've been waking up to cold mornings, those mornings where you just think about a cup of tea, staying in bed with a blanket and watch your favorite TV shows on Netflix. However, there's always work to do, events to attend and calories to burn at the gym (yes, trying to get the beach body back.) For these chilly days I've been wearing my black leggings with oversized sweaters but then I realized, where's the fun in that? No matter the weather or the laziness there are always creative ways to update your wardrobe; instead of pants or leggings take out your favorite skirt with cool tights or over the knee boots. 
 Even though the bed and your favorite flannel pajama calls your name to stay home, find motivation and think about layers, flirty and fun! Trust me, a cool skirt and killer boots may not be the solution to your problems but they always bright up your day. 

Love,
S
