Steve Madden Haul


Hey everyone!
I got my Steve Madden order just a few days back and I'm really excited about it!! Since I don't have time to go out and shoot some outfits right now I thought I'd share with you this little haul for now :)
I ordered from a page www.fashiondays.com which is something like slovenian Hautelook if you're familiar with it. It's a page where you can sign up and every day specific products from some brands are available to order at a reduced price. It's really cool and I'm so happy that all of the shoes are true to pictures and all of them fit me perfectly!


 These are gorgeous gold flats covered with glitter! At first I was afraid that the glitters are going to fall down easily but actually I'd have to try really hard to get them off which is amazing! I got these in a size 36 because flats tend to fall of my feet while walking, that's why I always get a size smaller. I'm definitely going to be playing around with those and I already have in mind a post on how to wear them for a special occasion as well as how to incorporate them into a casual outfit.



These you'll recognise, I wore them in my last post and I love them! They are the perfect nude sandals for spring and summer, they go with everything, I can also wear them for a casual day or somewhere fancier, overall they're very versatile. I got the in 36 also, but only because they didn't have them in my size and I was extremely happy when I found they fit me perfectly!



 As for last pair, you will either love them or hate them. Personally I adore them, I think they're to die for! Obviously they're not the most traditional shoe type that you get to see in public 10 times a day but I really don't care because I love them. Besides I always prefer to be a bit more unique rather than blend in with eveybody else. The main reason I got them because I'm craving for a pair of Jeffrey Campbell Litas and these Steve Madden ones are quite similar in style to JC.


I'll definitely get my hands on Litas one day, but until then, these will do ;) Fyi, you can expect a lot of outfits with these shoes because they are my current obsession. Oh and I got these in my size-37 and they fit perfectly as well :)

That's everything for today, I'm going to post some new outfits during the weekend :)

Lots of love, Ellie <3

Orange Pants



Hey there!

Today is such a beautiful day and I really felt like wearing orange! The funny thing is that I hated orange until last summer when it became extremely popular. It was just the most ugly and unflattering colour to me, I have no idea why, all I know is that my mom could never make me wear anything orange. But as we experienced colour blocking trend last season and it was orange everywhere, I sort of fell in love with it although I wasn't sure whether I was brave enough to wear it. Well this year I definitely am and I'm pretty sure you're going to see quite some outfits with them :)
So for this look I wanted to play with colours a bit and so I went for a slight colour blocking - pairing two colours that contrast each other, in this particular case, blue is opposite to orange in the colour wheel. I think this way of colour blocking with contrast colours is my favourite because it's such a pop of colour and it looks gorgeous! Although as I said before, this is only slight colour blocking as there's a lot of white incorporated as well (since I don't own an overall bright blue top, I just worked with what I have), which makes the look a bit more subtle and so out there. But I still love it!






Top: H&M (recent), pants: H&M (recent), shoes: Steve Madden (recent), cardi: Dorothy Perkins (last season), bracelet: Dorothy Perkins (last season), necklaces: the one with pendant was a gift from my mother when I was younger, the other one is just a random chain I wrapped around my neck twice. On my nails (if you're able to see) is Essie Mint Candy Apple and on my lips is ArtDeco lipstick in 435 with L'oreal 6h Glam Shine in Lasting Coral.

Lots of Love, Ellie <3
