Playing With Texture & Color

Posted in All Posts, Cheap or Steep, EuroMom by

Fall is officially here, but fall weather – not quite yet. These are some of the benefits of desert living.

As you can see I’m still in my summer outfits although I can’t wait to rock a pair of OTK boots. For now, I’m playing with texture, color and accessories (as usual). I’ve been looking for the perfect moto jacket since last year, and finally found this one at the end-of-summer Zara sale. The mustard color is great if you are looking to spice up a clean-cut or conservative outfit. Here I have style it with dark colors, so it stands out. This Forever 21 dress has pretty thin straps, but the texture makes it wearable during cooler seasons. I love pairing it with a long sweater or duster. To make the outfit complete, I added a neck scarf – and there you have the typical European look. 🙂

Enjoy!

Spring Is In The Air

I bet we are all ready for spring, and some of us are lucky to experience beautiful weather already. I’m not quite ready to give up on my favorite OTK boots, but I love that I can still wear them while mixing spring pieces. I got this dress at Forever 21 for less than $20! You can find similar ones in various colors around the same price. The cut-out shoulder trend is perfect for transitioning your wardrobe into spring. Enjoy!
