Obsessed with... Burgundy

It's definitely the color of the season. Why? Because it's cooler than red, because it goes so well with all neutrals in your closet, and because it's not boring. Also, you can apply it to any item - from leather skirts and pants (my favs in this color), heavy winter sweaters all the way to bags and nails. I have a hat, scarf and gloves in this amazing color and have been obsessed with it since then. Maybe you will see them in a post to come. In the mean time, enjoy this collage of burgundy deliciousness. 

P.S. Are you fat yet? I hope you're getting there because after the holidays you will have no excuse for it. 

Obsessed with... the big clutch, street style

I absolutely adore the Stella McCartney lips clutch

Clean and white

Example of perfect androgyny

I love this clutch and ring combination. I would choose the ring first though.

Obsessed with... The three bags to die for (and keep forever)

I am hoping someone (most likely very rich, if I know such a person) will come to my door with a huge bag filled with tissue paper, which I will frantically rip and throw all across the room, to discover a perfectly tucked in Celine, Hermes or Chanel bag (of course not the tacky versions of such). I will cradle it in my arms and promise to cherish it forever. Of course, everyone dreams of getting something extremely expensive that they didn't have to work for but there is always this little thing called reality. I also have a feeling I will cherish it more when I earn it.

Here's hoping.

I believe these bags require no introduction (but I will introduce them regardless).

Favorites?

Céline Luggage

Chanel Classic Chain Bag

Hermès Birkin

Got to have that neon bag!

I have been obsessed with this the sartorialist photo since I saw it... mainly because of the clutch.. 

And I don't even wear clutches. I like more spacious bags. But I would honestly make an exception for this one.

Best of all... Zara cheap version bellow!

Zara Neon Clutch. It might not be as good but it's close enough...

$35.90 - BUY!

When in doubt - jeans and over the knee boots!

Obsessed with... A splash of orange

Cheap and Chic - A Guide to Bright Accessories

I have went on color overdose at Zara the other day. My bank account was in severe pain. On the other hand, I felt great. But if you are a boring black and white person even THIS season, I suggested a quick fix - a crazy colored bag or shoe. It will brighten up any outfit, however gray scale it may be. All of these pretty cheap so I suggest buying five :). Well, not unless you are getting your paycheck the next day. Who needs groceries, right?

I will make this post short since I am longing for more than 6 hours of sleep tonight, even though the possibility of that seems unlikely at this point. Ugh. You know, I have a job (or three) and a life where I need to do stuff. But my addiction takes over. Gosh, saying this I feel like Dexter (who knows, knows).

cmok!
