Hi gorgeous! Welcome to November… The weather is so gorgeous here and it was wonderful to get out and spend some time with friends and check out Fall collection on stores. Earlier last week I had the chance to stop by the Gigi New York pop up store located in the meatpacking district in Manhattan. For those that might not know Gigi new York  , They are a new handbag company with a generation of experience in another trade.

As soon as I arrived they offered me some champagne, and immediately I said YES! As you know making costumer feel special its a kill . The store is beautiful with handbags everywhere, and there is a cute and chic Fall display with a nice bench, perfect to snap some photos.

It was a special afternoon, I had the pleasure to meet and talk to Steve, their photographer who did some photoshoot and Rosella, their social media manager, who gave me a tour of the store and showed their latest line of Fall collection, leather colors, and styles.

 GiGi New York handbags is made of a high quality while price point is relatively affordable and everything is made here in the US. Take advantage of the holiday season discount where you can grab so many great items for yourself as well a fabulous Holiday gift to your besties. 

Four of my favorite pieces were the Amelie Crossbody, Jennie Saddle Bag, Madison Crossbody, and Katie Crossbody.  I love the sleek and very practical designs, and since its made high quality material its durable and can be part of your everyday wear. I ordered the Jennie Saddle bag and the Madison Crossbody bag and can’t wait to receive start using them. They will definitely become a wardrobe staple.

How to wear Indian Headdress for Halloween

indian headpieces costumeIndian headdress burning man

Hi everyone!

Halloween its around the corner… With the leaves on the trees starting to turn into beautiful colors, tailgate parties, football games, and so on so for and along with fall comes the excitement of Halloween festivities. Well, its all about that spooktacular weekend so have you decided what you’ll wear yet?

Today I want to show you my stunning feather INDIAN HEADRESS from Novum Crafts. 

                      I had found Nuvum Crafts online last year and recently in September I decided to order one piece to use on Eletric Zoo festival in NYC. It is really beautiful and I got so many complements, people used to ask to take picture with me haha. So Navum Crafts ended seen some of my pictures around Instagram and decided to contact me for collaboration. They sent over another Headdress of my choice (black one) in exchange for a review on my blog and of course I didn’t think twice before saying yes, yes, yes. So I just got my second headdress and yeahhh that’s what I’ll wear for Halloween next week.

I love the idea of wearing a headdress for a themed party. There are many many ways to create an unique costume with that beautiful feather headdress Bellow in this post you’ll see a selection of some outfits, make up and face painting for you to get inspired.

Also, headdresses are perfect pieces to create a last minute outfit not only for Halloween but for any other themed party and to use on festival seasons. Since it is such a statement piece it does stands out by itself, so if you are running out of time to elaborate your native Indian costume with serious face painting, you can just wear some plain outfit , put your headdress on and try to add some brush strikes across your chicks and chin and voilaaa you are ready to go.

With so many good parties around town specially in NYC you’d better dress to impress. Some of those parties are hard to get in and tickets get sold out fast, others are secret invite-only code and to access the hidden venue you need to wit until you see the Instagram’s geotag lol. I had been to some of those parties before and yes, they do offer an unique experience so let me tell you one thing for sure: its usually the most awaited party of the year and promises to put any previous Halloween bash you had planned to shame.

Indians are America’s Native people. From the Cherokee to the Apache tribes, they shared a similar way of life, living in teepees and hunting and gathering. Today, the only gathering you will do in an Indian Costume is gathering candy as you trick or treat. While many of our Native American outfits are created for authenticity, there are just as many that take the style and transform it into a fun Halloween costume.

With Halloween approaching you better hurry up and order your feather headdress. They guarantee international delivery in 3 business days . Head over to Novum Crafts website and pick your headdress

Use the code HALLOWEEN16 to get 20$ OFF

I hope you have the best Halloween ever!

Oi amores. Halloween está se aproximando e aqui nos Estados Unidos pricipalmente em Nova Iorque levamos esse assunto a sério. Então hoje minha dica é para ousar com fantasias diferentes, exuberantes e inicas usando um penacho indigena nas festas a fantasia. Esse penacho também fica lindo para usar nos festivais de músicas tipo Cochella. Como eu usei um penacho em um festival de Músicas daqui em Setembro resolvi dividir com voces algumas outras inspirações e também o site onde eu comprei. Eles também fazem entrega  internacional.  Visite: NOVUM CRAFTS  Todos os modelos estao com $20 de desconto.

Styling Stripe Shirt with Leather Skirt

stripes and leather skirt

Hi Everyone!!

I wore this outfit over a week ago when the weather wasn’t that chilly yet but I decided to put it up this stripe shirt with leather skirt outfit on my blog because I have followers from other countries (specially Brazil) where the weather is not cold at this time of the year and also because since its also considered a transitional piece  and they are currently on sale so that’s a great time for shopping. Stripes is one of my piece of clothing to have so I usually make sure I buy striped tops in different colors, styles and fabrics specially to bring on my trips. They are classic, edgy, suitable for wearing it on any season, they easy to coordinate and besides that, striped tops are great for photos. Yay \0/

I decided pairing the stripe top with a faux leather mini skirt and low heels shoes for a more laid-back stylish kind of way to walk around Soho, have some coffee and do a little shopping.

I have seen many girls on fashion week wearing Stripe tops with patches from design brands but did you know you can also easily DIY? There are several Iron  on applique and Stick on patches   on crafts stores but you can also find at AMAZON.COM

I listed are some easy tips to style stripe tops:

  • Converse and rip jeans are always a great combo to combine together with stripes
  • A touch of leopard is a great way to create contrast and mix print.
  •  Add a cute detail by wrapping a bandana around your neck
  • For a off-duty vibe throw a utilitarian jacket
  • To add a bit of grunge stye a plaid shirt wrapped around the waist does the job
  • For a feminine touch,  wear some floral print with your stripes

Keep in mind,there is a number of ways you can style your stripe top! Soon I’ll be posting more pictures with stripe tops for your inspiration. Don’t be afraid to have fun and experiment.. or keep it classic and pair it with your favorite basic piece. Fashion is fun

Have an amazing weekend everyone!

Oi amore o clima por aqui já deu uma boa esfriada da semana passada pra cá mas mesmo assim decidi postar esse look já que tenho seguidores no Brasil e em outros países e cidades que não estão no clima frio. Esse look que estou usando pode ser usado na meia estação e se o clima esfriar é só jogar uma jaqueta por cima .Listras é sempre uma boa pedida, é uma peça atempiral que eu amo e gosto de tê-las em varias cores, tecidos e estilos pois é uma peça curinha, clássica e pode ser usada em qualquer época do ano além disso é a peça mais perfeita pra fazer u mix print sem ter medo de errar.

Uma tedência que está fortissima é a dos apliques e patches nas roupas e nas blusas de listras ficam super interessantes. Voçê pode fazer em casa e dar uma renovada naquela blusinha listrada que estã lá no cantinho. Existem vário modelos de patches/adesivos/ apliques termo-colantes que podem ser aplicados na roupa com o ferro de passar!

Outras formas de montar looks com blusas de listras são:

  • Tênis Converse (All Star) e jeans destroyed
  • Um toque de animal print fax um mix com listras super moderno
  • Uma bandana no pescoço para um detalhe sofisticado
  • Jaqueta militar ou boyfriend deixa o estilo bem urbano
  • A camisa xadrez amarrada na cintura dará um toque grunge
  • Misturar uma peça floral com listras deixa o look com um toque feminino

Em fim tem inumeras formas de combinar suas peças listradas para todos os estilos. Não tenha medo de experimentar, divirta-se … mas se preferir mantenha o estilo clássico combinando-o apeas com uma peça básica favorita.

Beijos e tenha um ótimo final de semana

This Fall maxi dress is perfect for day and night layering on your favorite jeans or brown leather jacket like a did for a more stylish look or either a jeans jacket to tie in the blues from the dress.
