Happy New Year 2013!

Happy Friday, everyone! Just a quick hello today while unpacking the suitcases after almost a month spent in Los Angeles... By the way, this is the first blog post this year. So, Happy New Year 2013! I hope your holidays have been full of joy, pleasant surprises and lots of precious moments with your loved ones.

On another note, these photos were taken several days ago near one of my favorite Christmas Trees in Hollywood. I suppose, it’s definitely not a type of outfit you might think of envisioning Southern California, but yes, it was that cold there some days. So I paired the corduroy skinny pants and royal blue tunic sweater with a faux fur motorcycle jacket (who said it can be made of leather only?!) and the latest addition to my wedge sneakers collection - a pair of Ash hi-tops.

Now I have to admit that besides the obvious wedge sneakers obsession, I’ve been having a major crush on all shades of blue for the whole December. The strange and funny thing is that I didn’t realize it until after I started sorting the photos from this trip. Having a personal style blog can be quite revealing and beneficial… It can help you understand better your style preferences and organize your wardrobe. Have you ever felt that way? Has your blog somehow changed your approach to fashion and clothes in general?
