Fashion Monday

Just a few looks to get by Monday morning wardrobe fever. This summer my gaze turns to colour blocking, pastels, black and white (no season goes by without it), flowing patterns. Breezy, softer than skin dresses (isn’t the H&M dress below a lovely option?), bright pencil skirts (such urban refreshers), espadrilles and nude pumps or flats, shorts and off-white silk crepe de chine blouses: my possibilites are endless. What are your summer essentials? I hope your weekend was sunnier than mine. Wishing you a wonderful and stylish week!

A few more scoops of style, fashion and design: fashionable event: tea with Hermès / scenes of summer / belle de jour: Laetitia Casta / white on white in the heat of the desert / just take a moment / screen style: The Sound of Music / old Hollywood photo shoot / a flirty summer look / a stunning short film… (oh, that dress…) / Natalia Vodianova’s dresses for her White Fairy Tale Love Ball – what I love about Natalia, besides her being a drop dead gorgeous supermodel, is that she has never forgotten where she came from, on the contrary.

    Hi Ada! I agree with you on the summer trends! I want dresses that feels weightless on my skin! And the photos are all great inspiration! I love your links too, especially about Natalia. She’s always so humble about her success and she’s one of the most beautiful girls in the world. Oh, and my summer essentials are lots of white blouses and denim shorts! xoxoxoxo

    Almost every outfit could go straight in to my closet!! LOVE the chicness of this. The Coca’s wedding short film is breathtaking isn’t it? She is perfection and look at that happy couple, wow! Hope you had a great weekend, despite the rain. My weekend was long, lazy and delicious, full with rainy showers;)

    These are GORGEOUS! I crave soft soft soft in summer … things that move in the breeze, little tops that sway, white and loving the brights this season! Pretty bright tiffany blues and tangerines and hot pinks … yes, yes and yes! xoxo Have a wonderful week! xoxo

    Ada–I love each and every one of these looks and of course caught my breath at the first red and pink one–I love that combo so for this summer. My fav look right now is a pair of white linen pants worn with a navy + white striped trapeze tee by Velvet + bright pink strappy sandals.

    I am really loving long skirts, but haven’t got one yet. The green one on the second picture is perfection. Apart from that it’s white shift dresses and shoes of any kind as long as I like them. 🙂

    I love the variety in these outfits. The pops of color are so fun, but I’m also craving the calm nudes in the third outfit.
