My wardrobe

Rise and shine

beingdena

I want to be alone for a while
I want earth to breathe to me
I want the waves to grow loud
I want the sun to bleed down
See the waves go down
See the moon alone
See the world unshown
I raise my head and whisper
Rise and shine
Rise and shine my sister

red ballerinas

Zara started its sale today and though I didn’t find much I managed to get these lovely red ballerina pumps to complete my collection. You name a colour- I have it.

They are leather ones and cost £19. They come in yellow and orange as well.

They call me Dena Ballerina

The reason my friends call me Dena Ballerina is not because it rimes or that I used to do ballet but because you never catch me not wearing ballerinas. I’ve got them in every possible colour. I recently added these two to my collection. The Mango ones are the best buys because they are incredibly comfortable (They come in black as well).

note: both are in leather.

Spring/Summer Wardrobe

It’s summer here in London- plus 25 degrees and I’ve got the next 4 days off. I couldn’t be any happier. Meeting up with friends for cocktails outside in a bit. Before that I’m going to see if I can find any nice summer dresses. With this amazing weather, my wardrobe is in desperate need of an upgrade. What’s happened to all my spring and summer clothes? I’ve started by updating my basics, and Gap is best for that.

Lace and pearls

Gap does the prettiest underwear. For a long time I had to rely on the kindness of my friends based in US but since a few years back we have Gap Body here in UK. Not only are they pretty but so incredibly comfortable. My lingerie draw is a mix of Gap and Myla.

I love anything with a bow on it

The delivery man brought me this beautiful Arctic-blue silk-chiffon dress by Twenty8twelve. I love how feminine it is: the pleated corset overlay , the bow detail and the flare skirt. I love that it can be dressed up for the next engagement party I got in my calender or dressed down with a black blazer. How would you wear it?

Floaty dream

I wanted to show you my new dress so much that I couldn’t wait until I got the chance to wear it, so here is a preview. I have got the perfect clutch to go with it.

Pretty floral

Hello my lovelies,

I’m back home for a few hours. What have you all been up to today? I could definitely feel spring in the air today. Made me feel so happy :)

My shopping trip was pretty successful, will show you what I got later. Zara has got the most amazing spring collection with lots of pretty floral stuff. Talking about floral, this is what I wore today.  I really think to figure out how to do better outfit photos. I either need to grab anyone nearby to take the photo or get a good camera with self-timer. What do you do?
