I've been really thinking a lot about the future of this blog and the direction it will take once I'll have the time to work more on it! (3 weeks left from corporate life! :) I feel like sometimes I'm all over the place and I should streamline the content a bit more. The main focus is and will be fashion, personal style and photography and I decided to do a cocktail post once a week mixing everything else I loved that week together into a delicious blend of everythingness. So as one of my all time favorite happy song from "The Sound of Music" says... these are a few of my favorite things this week! :)
1. Golden nails
2. Instax Mini
3. A Beautiful Mess
4. Vintage Effects
5. French Onion Soup
6. YSL ring
7. Vintage swimsuits
I adore the complete Modcloth vintage swimsuit collection, but this one must be my absolute favorite. I'm really counting the days till summer! I have the feeling that it will be an amazing one! :)
8. 70's floppy hats
I found the exact same one on sales :) Cannot wait to wear it!
9. CLICK Magazine
I read it from the first page to the last! Full of great photography tips!
10. THIS quote
Have a chilly Sunday Girls (and boys)! :)

I want to know what that gold nail polish is RIGHT AWAY and where I can get it!!!!!!!!! Do you know what the name and/or brand is??
I really like this post, all of these things you introduced me to made me just go like 'WOW!' The nail polish, the swim suit, the floppy hat... all I love!
I hope it becomes clear to you what you want to do with your blog soon, always a tricky subject - but I think you are doing an awesome job as is!

@YAsmeen.... The link for the photo editing is in the post but it's called Toycamera Analog and I saw the Instax Mini on Ebay, but I bet you can buy it through the Fuji website as well!
That gold nail polish is FAB!
How much do those cameras run? Im interested in the 365 project myself.
New to blogging so follow me :)

2-that nail polish is SICK - check out my current fav which I am sure you will love at my blog: hautetherapy.com (slightly obsessed)
3- I live by that quote even though I never read it before
4-excellent tips on how to streamline your blog. I may use some of that strategy myself!

Just found out what that nail polish is: its from Minx (not YSL) NOT that you said it was, but that's what I thought initially. Hope you all go get it! I tried Sally Hansen Salon effects which I highly recommend!
Loving the insta mini....how cool is that and the editing, perfect.
Love all of these, especially the YSL ring :)Happy Tuesday!
Ooh, loving the idea of shiny gold nail polish! So fun!
Love the nails. It is not nail polish it is Minx, it is like a soft sticker that you add to your nails. I bought it at Asos, but it has to be done by a professional, mine went terribly wrong... I'm no pro, lol!
Loving the blog!

That gold nailpolish is kind of the best thing I've EVER seen.
No joke.
