A Peak into Spring

I LOVE NAUTICAL STRIPES, in case you were wondering. When Fashion Magazine challenged us to style stripes (excluding the typical striped top) I knew I would be wearing this blazer. I think of navy as a neutral and knew this blazer could be easily incorporated into my wardrobe. I wanted to wear some colour and wore this emerald green blouse and topped it off with this white statement necklace.

  5. I really like how you styled this outfit - I think navy and white work really well with an emerald green. And a white sparkly necklace adds just a bit of glamour and makes the outfit look very wintery!

  13. My God Iva. Idk how you do it! You look comfortable and fabulous amidst all that snow. It was in the 50's here today (that's 10ish, 15ish degrees in Celcius?) and I was freezing. The heater is on right now. You probably find that ridiculous huh? Haha.
