HOW JEWELRY ELEVATES MY EVERY DAY OUTFITS

Written by nickyinsideout on December 10, 2016. Posted in 2, Fashion. No Comments on HOW JEWELRY ELEVATES MY EVERY DAY OUTFITS

Can jewelry help radically the way we style our daily outfits? The answer is yes, absolutely!

Some days, despite all our effort – in my case almost every day, having Emma to get ready every morning before heading out – we just don’t have time to put together a A+, fashion week worthy outfit. Despite the new year resolutions of being super organised, classify our closet by colours and planning our next day outfit every night.. most of the time life just get in the way! Am I right? The right accessories are my answer to sort this out and saving a lot of time!

Today I am showing you how my latest discovery brand Sharon Fine Jewelry is adding interest to two very easy going outfits.

Wearing layered necklaces, rings and bracelets became part of my every day routine. It adds more life to easy-to-wear pieces and elevates every look. Especially when the jewellery is 14K gold and with very dainty details. Basically, I can wear it from a date night or event to my casual and every day looks.

I like to always layer my jewellery, that’s why I always go for very fine and dainty pieces. The moment I discovered Sharon Fine Jewelry I literally had my hands on every single pieces! Since, believe it or not, it’s made of 14K gold and diamonds, it still comes to a quite reseanable price. This makes it easier to afford more pieces and being able to layer them!

The answer to my morning rush is that I can easily wear my favourite denim and white shirt or chunky knit and still feel ‘dressed up’ when I am layering the right jewels.

MY FIRST SUMMER AS A MOM: MY WINNING FORMULA DURING BEACH LIFE SEASON

Written by nickyinsideout on July 9, 2016. Posted in Fashion, Travel. No Comments on MY FIRST SUMMER AS A MOM: MY WINNING FORMULA DURING BEACH LIFE SEASON

Hello and happy Saturday! I hope you are having a wonderful beginning of summer!

I know, I’ve been MIA from the blog the last couple of weeks.. but if you’ve been Insta and Snapchat stalking me, you’ve seen I’ve been (and still am) enjoying the beach life in Italy with little Emma and my family.

It’s the first summer as a new mom and there’s nothing calm and relaxing about taking a baby to the beach everyday.. but I wouldn’t change it for anything in the world and when Emma takes her daily naps I am still able to enjoy some quietness 🙂

The boiling hot weather hit us, (I am referring to Italy, not Holland.. Uh!) and I couldn’t wait to wear my ~~bikini~~ one piece as per this summer 2016 Vogue lessons -done my homework 😉 What I am really enjoying these days (apart from sand castle making, first attempts to walk and shells picking) is tanning in the shade with a high protection, one piece swimwear, shirt dresses and my jewellery.. never without my jewellery..

Layered over a fresh shirt dress and silk top, the perfect finishing touch is this Firma collection from Ellie Air. Dainty fine jewellery in gold and diamonds, with a contemporary design and understated look that screams chicness and quality.

Tipically, I wear a lot of gold jewellery and at the moment, I like mixing up gold and silver pieces.. timeless, minimalistic and wearable while being captivating enough to enhance a simple outfit.

Summer time and beach life is not synonymous of less attention to details and style.

This is coming from someone who tends to dress for comfort all year long, not only when the thermometer passes the thirty degrees. But comfort wearing, in my case, comes hand in hand with pure enjoyment of good life (.. need to make the most of those daily naps, don’t I?!) so pretty beach clubs, pool side and aperitivo with a glass of cold white wine are my passport for the best kind of summer. On a daily basis is preferable!

My winning formula is the following: one piece swimwear, lightweight wear which you can dress up and down according to the daily plan, never compromise on the accessories and jewellery!
