Oriental, express

I really love Gilt (http://www.gilt.com/)! A few weeks ago, there was a sale for Amrita Singh jewelry -  she makes some absolutely  incredible stuff which I always wanted to try but everywhere else it was just too expensive - and I ordered this necklace. Despite the fact that the estimated delivery for it was for the beginning of September, they shipped it almost right away and it turned out to be just awesome, much longer than I thought, much brighter and just so oriental!

Hello again!

Hello everyone! Sorry for quite a long abscence - it's been a really hectic week and it's not even over yet! Graphically, it can be depicted as something very striped: a light stripe followed by a darker one which in its trun is followed by another stripe a few shadows lighter. But it's definitely exciting! In fact, I like it much better than getting stuck in one spot when nothing - nothing! - seems to be happening.
This outftit sort of illustrates my feelings about this striped, striped week lol
P.S. LiddieGal, please let me know when I should send your shoes. They're all ready and waiting! You can write me at marianna.branagh@yahoo.com.

Eazy'n lazy

As much as I love accessorizing - and I really do - I still yield to my rahter lazy self every now and then and go the easy way. That is, opt for pieces that come pre-accessorized and thus require the very minimum amount of work in putting them all together in an outfit. In that respect, my absolute favourites are pieces with embroidery, beads, all kinds of glitzy stone etc.



I stumbled upon these sandals by my favourite J Renee (at http://www.6pm.com/) last summer and couldn't resist.  And they are so comfortable too!

From day to night


I bought this dress from Victoria Secret about a year ago, and only wore it casually at first. This summer, however, I decided to go a little bolder than usually and decided to dress it up a bit for this party that we were invited to. The result was quite unexpected: as it turns out, this dress is very versatile, and with a few extra accessories, can be transformed from day to evening wear with no extra problem at all.
P.S. Guys, don't forget the shoe giveaway http://astamundi.blogspot.com/2010/07/shoe-giveaway-round-2.html!
