How I Style: Leopard Coat

Inspiration from WeHeartIt

Hello!



I have recently gotten. for my birthday, a leopard coat from H&M. And I am in love with it! So I thought I would show some of my ideas for outfits with it.

Here is the coat, and you can find it in their website.



Here are a couple of outfits that I've put together!



This first one I put together with a really cool tool on H&M's website called fitting room. I decided to make it very casual with a simple white tube top, jeans, white sneakers and a colorful bag.


This one is also another casual outfit. I wanted to play with mint and pink, so I went with black jeans from Topshop, a Céline t-shirt, Isabel Marant wedge sneakers and a Rebecca Minkoff camera bag. For jewellery I decided to use a simple small neon pink watch by Marc by Marc Jacobs and a cool necklace from Aldo. 


This outfit is more of a work day one. I really liked these yellow pants from Zara, then I chose a nude blouse and a black high heel also from Zara. I then went with a Michael Kors bag and watch, and some nice earrings.


For this outfit I thought I would something with a dress. So I chose to go with this beautiful red dress from Topshop, black platform sandals by Pelle Moda and a black YSL clutch. For jewellery I chose a nice necklace by Kate Spade and cute bracelet by Dorothy Perkins. 


For this outfit I thought of finding anything indigo, so I saw this cute skirt and decided to pair it with a black cropped top, both from Topshop. For shoes, I have two options, flats from Topshop or these nice pumps by Valentino. I decided to go with a black Céline luggage bag, black and gold bracelet and watch from Marc by Marc Jacobs, and a pretty gold necklace by Lanvin.

I know some of the items in the outfits are expensive, but this is just for inspiration!
 What is your new favorite piece in your wardrobe?

Today's outfit: Spring is in the air

Hey, for today's post I thought I would show you my outfit! I got lots of compliments and the colors that I'm wearing just make me super happy.


What I had in mind was pairing my mint pants from Zara with some other colour, to make it bright and happy. So I chose to wear my pink shirt with white polkadots by GAP and underneath a simple tank top from H&M. For shoes I decided to go with my spiky sneakers from Zara. For accessories I went with my Zara sunglasses and my Michael Kors watch.

So, that's what I wore! What did you wear today and what inspired you?

Defining my style!

"Fashion changes, but style endures."
- Coco Chanel


Long time no post! I recently saw that there was a new IFB project about defining your style, so I thought it would be fun to try it out! 
It basically consists of four question and I will be answering them! 

Who are your style icons?
It is very hard for me to point out one person that really inspires me. I would say that my icons are people in the streets, a blogger called Chiara Ferragni and other bloggers.


What is your lifestyle like?
I am the laziest person ever, so I would say I have a healthy life. But I'm happy anyways. My main goal is to be comfortable with what I wear, who I am and what I look like. I don't really care about judgement that much. I just want to be happy and make others happy, so I am very goofy.


How does your environment affect your style?
Denmark is very could, so I always have to have a big coat on and a huge scarf. I have been wearing stockings a lot, since I've been in a skirt/shorts mood. Another down for danish weather is the fact that it is windy as HELL! So you can never make your hair look really pretty, it WILL get ruined the moment you go outside. I also walk around a lot here, so I tend to wear flats and comfy shoes.
From Brazil to Denmark my style has changed a lot, I feel a lot more inspired here because the girls dare to wear whatever they want, while in Brazil I feel like I stayed in a safe zone.


Where else do your inspirations come from?
I mostly get my inspiration from instagram, youtube, window-shopping and I go to Zara and topshop's webpage at least twice a week to see what they have new and look around.


Overall I would say I like to stay in trend, but still use the things that I like (lucky me, everything that I've always liked is trendy now!), I like to be comfy and daring. 

I hope you liked and I'm sorry I haven't posted for a while. :)
I want you to define your style by answering the questions and either putting them in the comments or making a blog post and sending me the link! I would love to read them! 

Love,
Mariana

Everyday Makeup: Products

HELLO!

Today I thought I would share with you the products that I use for my everyday makeup. :)


Face

To prep my face, I use my Clean Scene moisturiser and apply some primer, I use the Primed Poreless by Too Faced.



For concealing I use my Hide The Blemish Concealer by Rimmel London in Ivory and for foundation I use Chanel's Vitalumière Aqua Foundation in BR10. Sometimes if I feel like using powder, I apply a bit Wet n Wild's natural blend pressed powder in Natural.



Eyes

First of all I apply some eye primer, I use the one by too faced.
For my eyeshadows, I use the brow-bone color from the Walking on Eggshells pallet by Wet n Wild as a base and highlighter. For my crease, I apply Nevermind from Urban Decay The Vice Pallet and then for the outer corner I change it up, but most of the times it's Black Market from The Vice also.
I use the cream eyeliner in Black by E.L.F. and most of the times I use the LashGasm Mascara by Too Faced.




Cheeks & Lips

For blush, I choose either Peach by NYX or my cream blush from Coolcos in 02.














When it comes to lips I only use lipsticks, lipglosses are too sticky and messy. I love bold lipsticks and  the one that I am mostly using at the moment is my Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Crush.





Hope you liked it. What do you prefer lipstick or lipgloss?

Love,
Mariana
