It's been a tough year so far, but let's all get our hearts and minds ready for a kinder, prettier, calmer 2021.

Here are few of my favourites from SHEIN this December, both casual clothes and smarter, perfect for NYE or for...enjoying yourself while spending quality time at home - unfortunately that's what 2020 has been all about.

Enjoy and stay safe.

Love,

Carla

SHEIN is definitely my fav online retailer, and wanna know why?

There are millions of clothes and accessories to suit my style and satisfy my soul - everything I want or can imagine in terms of clothes, I know for sure I can find on SHEIN! I was flirting with the idea of getting a maxi cardigan, well guess what: I found the perfect one, in a fluffy beige version.

A beige faux leather shirt? Sorted. And it's very similar in style to a Ganni shirt which I love.

So many dresses to choose from, yet this one seemed so perfect for winter with its delicate flower motifs and golden thread.

Scrolling some more on their website, I found a faux leather jumpsuit, with V neck and puffy shoulders (my fav details ever, now together!) - all black, which also fits perfectly. I always get the size S on SHEIN, unless I want something oversized, then I go for an M, like for my cardigan and teddy coat below. The teddy puffer is one of the warmest teddy coats ever, in a beautiful shade of buttery white which works with everything. And want to know something? I have exactly 1649 saved items on my SHEIN account, so stay tuned for my next order.

On some sad, glommy winter days, I'm in the mood for fun! And you know what lifts my spirit? Mixing colours, prints and wearing warm clothes which also bring a smile on my face.

I know, I know, perhaps some of the clothes I'm wearing make me feel like a child once again and I really love the feeling. Most people are wearing dark colours only, which, as you know, I find quite sad (especially if you they don't own it and the styling is non-existent) as it looks really boring and safe. And damn, I hate safe choices. Never was, never will be a fan of those. 

In today's outfit I mixed everything: I like to call it an "eclectic cocktail". Glittery hair clips, the softest teddy coat I got this year, cable-knit jumper, some bling, colourful eyeshadow, a gorgeous leopard print satin skirt from SHEIN (the jacket is also from SHEIN), neon pink tights and finally, a bright red bag and black boots. I do look like an oversized 5 year-old girl, but I love every single piece I'm wearing and how they work together too!

The whole look also has a 90's grunge vibe to it, which was the whole idea. I'm a nostalgic at heart and often find myself dreaming of past eras instead of enjoying the present. I feel like everything is too "mixed" now, too inspired from the past, and it seems like not even the time has its personality anymore...it's difficult to classify, put a name on the past 10 years in fashion, it's a bit of everything. Therefore more often than I'm supposed to, I love to bring back some good old trends, feelings, vibes, to live in the past and continue to hope that one day, people will leave in a Kardashian-free world once again, with values and aesthetics restored back to normal. Is that too much to ask?
