Stripes Mixed With Florals... And Ice Cream Dates!

Jun 13, 2011

{TOP: H&M, BELT: MODCLOTH, SKIRT: H&M, SHOES: H&M}

Hello friends! Oh my goodness, have you noticed that I live in these H&M wedges lately?! Haha, I really can't help myself... they are so comfortable, which for me is non negotiable. Hubs and I love walking to the village for ice cream or to enjoy a fancy coffee. Ah, summer is definitely in the air!

 I spent the rest of my weekend in my "home studio" ...well, it's more of a nook in our condo. I have been feeling mighty creative lately, and making adorable necklaces and vintage bead earrings. I just adore scouring shops for old beads and sweet little pendants -SO fun!!

 Alright, my dearies. Hope your Monday is turning out to be an absolutely lovely one. And stay tuned... I'm staring a new feature this Wednesday called "blog spotlight!" I'll be interviewing one of my favourite personal style bloggers! xx veronika

  10. Stipes + Florals = Perfection.

    Also, I have never found wedges that fit comfortably (and that I liked) but I'd imagine if I did I'd never take 'em off, hehe. I haven't been to H&M for quite some time, maybe I should go check it out soon.

  57. Those coral wedges just scream weekend ice cream date- I can't blame you for living in them, they're the perfect comfortable and stylish piece for summer. And I'm loving your mixture of floral and stripes; part stylish Parisian girl, part bohemian turns out to be a match made in heaven :) You must show us some of the jewelry you've been making, I'm dying to see what other kinds of creative things your beautiful brain comes up with. Hope you're having a lovely day!

  58. I walked around for 30 minutes with those shoes in my hand before stuffing them back on the shelf and running out of the store for fear of regretting the purchase. You know what I regret? Not giving myself the chance to regret the purchase.

  59. So many exciting things! I can't wait to see the new feature....and maybe those necklaces and earrings you've been working on?!? :)
    Oh, and this outfit is beautiful! Mixing stripes and florals has become one of my favorite combinations lately, I'm trying to find some pieces in my closet that would pair just as well.

    ReplyDelete
  60. I would never have thought to pair these two pieces together..but you totally pull it off! Such great style inspiration! Cant wait for your new Wednesday feature!

    ReplyDelete
  61. The feature sounds amazing! I've been thinking about bringing some of my good old interviewing skills back into action but haven't gotten around to it...I'm excited to see what your feature is like and who the blogger will be!

    As for this outfit, amazing. Love the pattern mixing and the soft, romantic mood about the whole look. I'm the same way with my H&M wedges, I spend far too much time in them. They go with everything though, and like you said, if they're comfortable, they should get worn. You look beautiful as always, hope you're enjoying your night!

  62. Stripes+florals= my favorite pattern mixing combo ever! You knocked it out of the park chica :) And I would SO live in those wedges if I had them, too.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Living in those wedges seems like a brilliant thing to do, considering how awesome they are and how perfectly they go with this outfit. And as a devoted lover of the stripes/florals print combo, I have to say, WELL DONE on the pattern mixing!

    ReplyDelete
  64. i love this combination :) and those wedges are suuuuuper cute - i might have to get some, especially since you say they are comfortable!

  72. Love ice-cream dates! Though I am lactose intolerant, hubs and I will go and order a Turtle Sundae ... which I will proceed to eat up all the pecans {which hubs could do without} and then pass on the rest {aka: the ice-cream} over to hubs to finish off :)

    Okay ... you know that you can't tease us with mentioning your "making adorable necklaces out of vintage goodness" and then not show us your art, right?!?!? Hope a post goes up soon {my fingers are crossed :)}

  76. Veronika! This is one of my favourite outfits of yours so far. I love stripes and floral together. My common sense says it wouldn't work, but it does beautifully!

    Wow, I wish I had a 'studio'. Hope you had a wonderfully productive day!

    Love the red lipstick on you too!

  79. oh veronika, your little toesies even match those darling wedges!!!!! can't take it, so beautiful....no wonder you're living in them lades. they look light as air and your whole outfit is a decadent treat in itself too.

    another pretty location, i love how the trees come together and cast flickering lights down on you and the pavement. the new creations you're making sound interesting - i spent a bunch of time in the home office too although my craftiness extended more towards Adobe, by the end of it my eyes were practically filtering a gaussian blur all on their own ; )

    excited for the new feature love, can't wait to see the line up you've got; i know it'll be stellar! happy mid-week bliss!!! ♥

  80. This outfit looks so great on you, you definitely have an eye for matching patterns Veronika!

    I love the location too. Very sweet :)

  81. What a lovely outfit! I think this is my favorite of yours so far! That skirt is adorable! <3 <3

    Aw!! Walking around for ice cream sounds lovely! I wish I had more places to walk/bike to. :(

    ReplyDelete
  82. I am so jealous. Walks to get ice cream and that outfit. Super cute. I have an outfit similar that I have been wanting to wear but it's still too dang cold and rainy for my silk skirt.
    Your staple shoes are super cute so keep wearing them girl.
    Cheers,

  83. Florals and stripes! Yes! this is just lovely. And H&M wedges are just the best because they are so comfortable. Glad to hear you have a little "home studio" as well for crafting. I wish I had more space to have one as well :-)

    ReplyDelete
  84. How fun, you make jewelry! I've wanted to try that forever, I think I've been subconsciously collecting little gems in the hopes that I'll finally make something. Adorable outfit, I love the soft color of your nail polish with those wedges.

    ReplyDelete
  85. Love the mix of stripes and floral, and that your toes PERFECTLY match your heels! How did you do that!?!? haha :)
