Sometimes simplicity is the hardest to achieve. We tend to be creatures of more, more & more…so I believe it’s rare to be able to walk out the door with just a simple, almost colorless outfit. I felt very classy and elegant in this casual look. The shirt is one of the softest blues I have ever seen…it almost looks white in the pictures.

Sometimes simplicity is the hardest to achieve. We tend to be creatures of more, more & more…so I believe it’s rare to be able to walk out the door with just a simple, almost colorless outfit. I felt very classy and elegant in this casual look. The shirt is one of the softest blues I have ever seen…it almost looks white in the pictures.
I wore:
Equipment ‘Brett’ shirt in Ice Blue: Equipment is one of my favorite labels. They are a little on the pricey side but I feel they’re a great investment because the quality and the cut of ALL their shirts is simply flawless.
Seven for All Mankind Super Skinny Jeans in white: I have worn and will probably wear these jeans a lot…I mean, they’re white…kind of a given that they go with everything ;)
Yves Saint Laurent Roady bag in gray: If you’ve been reading my personal blog for years…I mean, who hasn’t (??)…you know that I bought this bag in Paris. If you’d like to read the post I did about it, you can do so here.
Antik Batik Akatong sandals: I was totally lucky to buy these last year (also in Paris) because as soon as I purchased them, I read online they were sold out everywhere…so I have major attachment issues with them.You know when you have something and you realize you could never replace? Doesn't that make you love it more? It did me...and I LOVE these sandals. And they sparkle...I did warn you all…I like shiny things.
Mikimoto Pearl neckalce: What can I say? I am kind of digging my pearls lately. I think they’re making a comeback…at least in my wardrobe they are ;)
Lastly, I’m the type of girl that puts on lip gloss and mascara and calls it a day…so makeup and I are not best friends but I will say that making friends with so many bloggers has taught me a thing or two. First of all, there are so many amazing beauty bloggers that will give you tips on how to treat your hair (see from We Rock Fashion Too a home hair remedy here) and even simple things like how to apply the perfect lip liner…just YouTube and you’ll see. I found a fabulous blogger, Annie Jaffrey, and her video on how to do flawless makeup (click here). I didn’t have half the tools or colors she did but I tried my best to follow what she was doing and luckily I had just purchased some new brushes…so I tried it out and overall I think I did okay. I would not do this for everyday…I kind of like the way I look sans makeup (here) but once in a while it is pretty nice to feel like a glam girl ;) Hope today is that day for you!
See you around…
XOXO,
Bella M for Las Bellas
