Back from NYC - Fall is here. OOTD

Hi Everyone!

So I'm finally back from NYC, and I have to tell you that I had the MOST amazing time.
This trip to New York was a belated birthday gift from my boyfriend, and I have to say "babe, you've outdone yourself this time".

I'm not the type of person who's easily impressed, nor am I a person who's hard to please. Get me a lollipop and I'll be jumping out of joy, get me a diamond necklace doesn't mean I'll be impressed.

However, this time, I am honestly, very impressed. I'll share with you all the details in a following post. =)

For now, let me say, FALL IS HERE!
You know fall is around when the colors of the leaves start to change, when you wake up in the morning and you're still wrapped under your covers, when you take the first step onto the hardwood floor - and it's cold.

I know it's fall, when I have to pull out my boots and scarves and, by reflex, start layering clothes.
Today, my outfit started off with a menswear/truck driver-ish inspiration: Denim shirt with rolled up sleeves, and white long sleeves under - rolled up too.

I truly believe that juxtaposition is key to having your own style. So, if you're being a little masculine, throw in a few feminine pieces: Floral scarf, chic chignon and high heeled boots.


 

I can't wait to share with you all a new little gadget I bought for making quick and easy chignons! 
It's no world shattering discovery, in fact many women already knew about this, but it's new for me, so hopefully it'll be new for you. =)


I'm all for easy makeup for my everyday look.
Light foundation, used as concealer to cover up any bumps, redness and unevenness, little bit of blush/bronzer to define the face, a little bit of eyeshadow to redefine the eyes, eyeliner + mascara and fill in the brows. =)
