TGIF, loves! Hello from Barcelona. I'm so ready to explore the city. If you follow me on Instagram, you probably already saw this outfit. The wrap top is a new addition to my summer wardrobe. I'm so obsessed with it.
The best sale for the weekend is Anthropologie's, they are having an extra 20% off on all sale items with code SALEAWAY. Check out my picks below! Wish you girls a great weekend and let's stay in touch on Instagram :) XO
The peacock embroidered tulle dress, the suede gladiator wedges and the drew bag from Chloe are the most romantic and amazing summer uniform. Because of the price, I have been looking for alternatives and more affordable looks that have that carefree and romantic feeling. The crocheted lace trim reminds me a lot of the Chloe girls. Summer has come to New York City a bit earlier than I expected. I wore this outfit and did some shopping in the daytime and went to a rooftop happy hour over the weekend. The open back and the movement of the skirt made me enjoy these weekend events even more. I was feeling very Chloe.
A tip to wear this kind of airy and open back dress is not to wear a bra. I only wore self adhesive pasties underneath. I know some of you might not feel too secure. Another thing I use, though, is Topstick. It's basically a double sided tape for clothes. I put it in between my skin and the dress in my chest area, so that the dress is secure and the front won't fall off or open up even when you are dancing. It actually feels really good to not wear a bra once in a while, definitely feels very free :) What do you girls think? :) XO
New stripe top and I'm so obsessed with it. I can't get enough of stripes. Wearing it with a denim jacket and ripped jeans are my go to look this spring. Some of you commented on my Instagram and Facebook page that this pair of sandals looks really high and that you may not have the confidence to walk in them. This made me want to share some tips on how to wear high heels.
-Heel type.
The heels that have more cover, an ankle strap or thicker heels are easier than stilettos and thin heels.Wedges and platform heels are also easier. Plus platform heels are back this season, which are indeed a great option. With this pair I'm wearing, the heel is 5.75 inches in total height and the platform is 1.5 inches. So the absolute height is about 4.25 inches. It's much easier to walk in compared to a lot of high heels. I love how they look and how they elongate my legs :P
-Find the right size.
When I'm shopping online, I always look at the description of the shoes before I order. Lots of online retailers have information like true to size or fit smaller in the product detail. You need to find the right size for you.
-Use anti-blister products.
I'm currently using this Julep Doublesteps foot treatment and friction stick. I put it on my feet on the areas where I easily get blisters before I put on my heels. This shea butter treatment is infused with vitamin E and chili pepper oil to stimulate circulation. It also creates a barrier between your feet and shoes to reduce friction and stomp out blisters.
These gels and silicon are really soft for your feet. They help shift the weight and alleviate heel pain.
-Walk in them correctly.
Walk in them from heel to toe. Having good posture helps too. Take small steps. Be confident :)
-Take Breaks.
Try to sit if you need to get off your feet for a little bit. Practice does make perfect, but don't wear heels everyday. Your feet need a break. After wearing heels for a few days, you can switch to other awesome flat shoe options out there like Birkenstocks :P
-Bring foldable flats.
Some heels are really high and tough to walk too long in, but they are so pretty. If you know you will be in these types of heels for long hours, you can always bring foldable flats with you. I have a few pairs of Yosi Smara ones, they are tiny after folding and fit in small bags.
-Be good to our feet.
At the end of the day, after showering, I always put on lotions and creams and that includes putting them on my feet. Massage them for a while as it's good for your feet. This shea butter foot cream is really good. Or get a foot massage and a bubble bath, which are great for our feet.
I hope these tips are really informative and helpful for you to rock your heels. Happy Thursday, loves! Have a great day :) XO

Do you girls remember this Fall Essential: Denim Jacket post? The denim jacket is such a versatile piece that not only can be worn in the fall, but also in the winter by layering it with a coat. It's a wardrobe essential that you will find is so easy to pair with so many different items for multiple seasons. The plaid and colors of this coat add a vibrant feel to this denim on denim look. The oversized style makes the coat so easy to layer in this cold weather. Most importantly, the plaid coat is still ON SALE. Check it out, my loves :)
Did you gals get anything from the Black Friday sales and Cyber Monday sales? It's unbelievable that this LBD is only $50 and these Heels are only $30, right? Yesterday, I ordered a few more statement necklaces, rings and earrings to add some glam accessories to my wardrobe (you can still use code CYBER20 to get 20% , sale ends tonight) . Can't wait to share them all with you! Thank you so much for reading and have a great Tuesday! XO
Happy Monday, loves! Hope you all had a great Easter weekend! Did you guys see the big egg hunt at Rockefeller Center? So many cute eggs are on display for Easter. If you follow me on Instagram, you know which egg was my favorite one:) Yesterday, I went to the Brooklyn Museum to check out Ai Wei Wei's According to What exhibition. Oh my, he is such a talented man. Love so many pieces from the exhibition.
I feel today's outfit is a very good representation of my personal style: Off Shoulder, lace, leather, ruffle and flare sleeves. These are my favorites and that's why I call it Very Sasa. It is such a pretty and ultra feminine top and I'm so in love with it and every single detail about it. Thank you so much for reading and have a great beginning of the new week:)
