Florals in autumn are not exactly a groundbreaking concept, but I am a fan of everything unexpected and unusual. Floral print may not be my thing, but this dark, goth glam version makes me want to cover myself in it - from head to toe! Unexpectedly enough, this is my favorite fall/winter trend! How about you?

Pick of the week... silk scarf!

It's always the little details that make the most difference, and give that wow effect. Tiny silk scarves are coming back big time, and for a reason! They'll make any basic outfit chic and bohemian, and très très cool! Choose basic, high-quality garments, and casually throw on your silk scarf - the result is a very chic (and low-maintenance) look, without even trying. 
Oh, and it's a great DIY idea!

Pick of the week... Culottes!

Culottes... they definitely are a trend that's not easy to follow. The first impression might be they only look good on a model silhouette - but that's not true! Trust the girl who's not tall (read: short) and has slightly crooked legs - I feel so stylish in them! After months of weighing pros and cons, yesterday I got my first pair at Zara, and I'm already looking for another one because now it's all I want to wear.
What do you think?

Obsessed with... Chloé Faye bag!

Something that doesn't happen that often, is that I fall for a designer bag. I'm not a bag person at all (team shoes!!!) but every once in a while I go crazy for a certain bag. This past months it's been two bags even! After Ralph Lauren Ricky, I fell in love with the gorgeous Faye bag. It's a perfect mix of bohemian, luxurious and rock chic, which kind of hits the soft spot with me. It's on my bag-wishlist, and I don't even have a bag-wishlist haha!
What do you think? Any bag crushes?
Love, A ♥

Pick of the week... wooden sunglasses

Among all the cool shades, the ones that got my attention this summer are the wooden ones. I haven't seen something so cool in quite a while to be honest! The design is simple - should I say classic? - but the texture of the wood makes them really stand out. Perfect summer statement piece!

Obsessed with... knotted sandals

aleksandra skorupan, velvet and milk blog, massimo dutti, pick of the week
In the previous outfit post you've seen me wearing Birkenstock look-a-like slides (that I'm in love with), but these Massimo Dutti nappa knotted sandals have completely stolen my heart! I'm sharing them here with you, in a desperate attempt to stop myself from rushing to the store to get them! Also, I'll make this a regular column - once a week I'll share my fashion picks with you, and I hope in comments you'll also share your picks with me ♥
