Hello, beautiful people!

Can you imagine that it's already August? It's crazy, really! Seems like it was only June, and I was enjoying MBOFD fashion shows, when ta-da — August has come.

But anyway, I decided to not whine & not getting upset about it, and just enjoy this last month of Summer 2016, (what I'm doing right now on a sea coast!😉). And shopping — is definitely something that can cheer you up & give you some inspiration for new creations. For example, this white Zara blouse that I found recently inspired me to wear it with so much different style & create a lot of new outfits. The one I'm showing you today is perfect for a hot days, when you want to look incredibly romantic & elegant. You have already seen these shorts in one of my recent posts, but you can see how much different can your bottom look if you just change your top ;) 

I love this light & beautiful look, really. And I'm thrilled to know what do you think about it ♥

Sea Breeze

Hello, beautiful people!

I absolutely love the exaggerated sleeves trend — I think it's incredible for Summer! And I also think that light chiffon blouses with such big sleeves can be a perfect choice for beach.

My white chiffon blouse is from House of Fraser, and I own it for a pretty long time already. As you can see — it's quite transparent (even though the main part of my wardrobe is transparent, this one seems too much even for me). So it has always been an issue to me of how to style & where to wear this thing. Fortunately, in Summer this problem was solved quickly — by just wearing bikini underneath. If you're on a vacation on a sea or ocean coast, or looking for a beachwear, or just living near the beach — you should look for such blouses to protect yourself from sun & add a little twist to your look. I've added all the links down below, so you can easily click on them and choose those you like :)

Tell me what you think about such Summer look. I ♥ reading your comments!

2 Outfits for a Summer Date*

Hello, beautiful people!

What can be more romantic than a Summer date? Warm nights, messy hair, tanned skin & sea waves — oh, I can already see this beautiful picture! And even though some nights can be too warm or even hot (I mean temperature now), it doesn't mean that you can't have a perfect beautiful & romantic outfit. Who actually said that date look is only about long dresses & high heels? When I went to lovecatalogues.co.uk and found a huge amount of great clothing pieces & accessories for different occasions, I decided to show you a different side of a whole 'date outfit' idea.

The first look I called 'A sunset beach' cause it is great for a warm evening on a sea or an ocean coast. Such royal blue one-piece swimsuit looks even more like a body than just a beachwear. And when you will pair it with white loose caftan, bag & straw hat you will look absolutely romantic, yet feel yourself really comfy sitting on the sand with the sea breeze in your hair :)

The second look is more suitable for a city occasion, yet won't make you feel overheated as well. Ruffle off-shoulder top in a gorgeous mustard color paired with a short straight skirt & a crossbody to match, is my second favorite for a Summer date occasion. Complete an outfit with a small pendant & block heeled sandals, and you will feel yourself confident either on a rooftop, or in a movie, in a restaurant or just strolling through the streets of you city.

So, which one of those looks is your personal favorite? I ♥ reading your comments!

Coral Affair

Hello, beautiful people!

I was looking for a great pair of shorts for a whole Summer this year. I wanted to find such shorts that could have a romantic touch & can be worn in different occasions, not only for a beach summer look. And in the middle of Summer I finally found them :) Those rose quartz ones that I'm wearing on these photos (and I wore them all the time during my vacation!), do have this romantic touch, are incredibly light & look gorgeous in many Summer occasion. 

The only minus that they have — is the fact that they easily crumple the moment you sit anywhere, so you should be very neat & careful to make sure your rear part still look okay. But fortunately, this fact can't overlap all the pros of them, so these shorts still be in my list of my favorites so far :)

Do you have any current Summer favorites, guys? I ♥ reading your comments

Blue Culottes

Hello, beautiful people!

Back to those days when it wasn't so incredibly hot outside (cause now it's literally +40°C or +100°F), this outfit was one of my favorites. Something in it makes me want to wear this combination really often. Probably, it's all about the fact that culottes are not only trendy, but also an incredibly stylish & comfy clothing element. They can turn your favorite 'white top + pants' daily combination into a wonderful minimalist look which you can decorate with such big statement necklace. Looks great, isn't it? Perfect outfit as for a busy week, so for a night occasion, all depends on accessories ;)

Tell me, do you like culottes & what do you prefer to style them with?

P.S. Going on vacation for a week, so the next post will appear in blog on the next Tuesday. Make sure to follow me on my trip on Instagram: @olyagarkusha ♥

Oh, that Dress!

Hello, beautiful people!

Summer — is my favorite time for wearing dresses. Not that Spring or Fall isn't, but on these Seasons I prefer skirts or trousers, or casual jeans looks, when the hot Summer weather definitely lives no choice but to wear light & free dresses outfits. I think you've noticed that I posted a lot of them recently, just because I'm really enjoying wearing such feminine & romantic piece of clothing now.

So, today I'm sharing one more dress-obsession (oh, how many times will the word 'dress' appear in this post!), that I think is more suitable for some beautiful sea-coast or an ocean resort. If you'll add a straw hat & change sneakers on sandals or espadrilles — you have a ready go-to look under the Tuscany sun or at the white Nice beach.

But I'm in a city now, so I chose white sneakers & my new favorite bag (that appears in almost every post cause I just love it) for a great city-girl-combination. And how would you style this dress? :)
