What's In Your Bag?

Funny how such a trivial thing like a handbag and its contents sometimes say a little (or a lot) about you... Now Zalora has an ongoing promo that gets you worked up and excited to share the contents of your purse! Get creative and you might just have this awesome loot (all of the above sans gadgets) come your way this Sunday! 

Fantasy Closet {Vested Interest}

I find myself incorporating military elements into everyday looks of late. I even unearthed a camo mini from ages ago, which I never thought would see the light of day ever again. I'm sure it's just a phase- a fun and challenging one at that! Now, I'm debating with myself whether a military vest would be worth a purchase. Thus the looks above which so far are evidently on the side of the protagonist. 

THE ELEMENTS:

Munch Punch: Vest, Michael Kors Silk Blouse, Halston Heritage Sequin Shorts, Repetto ballet flats, Marni Earrings, YSL Cabas

Power Lunch: Vest, JCrew Stripe Shirt, Phase Eight Skirt, Louboutin Sandals, Prada Saffiano, Juicy Couture Chunky Bracelet

Sunday Brunch: Vest, Wallis Maxi Dress, Calypso St. Barth Sandals, Rebecca Minkoff Tote, Tortoise Sunnies

Creative Work Space

I've been yearning for a place not just for myself but for Mischka too. A place where we can let loose and create beautiful things, trivial or otherwise. Currently lobbying with the Mr. to give us an area for this purpose. While discussion is still ongoing, I have started putting together an inspiration board for our future creative work space (fingers crossed).

Retro-inspired wooden chairs lend a certain charm to modern interiors.

Buntings and tin cans for decorating and organizing are playful and cost effective.

An area rug pulls the look together and vintage suitcases no longer need to be stored in the attic. 

Inspiration board idea.

Another inspiration board idea.

Best to label trash bins accordingly.

Of course, Mischka gets a corner all to herself.

Kirna Zabete x Target

"The dream is to have the perfect outfit that can 

take us through the daily schizophrenia of being 

working mothers. Something above the 

ordinary that can go the distance from runway 

show to soccer field sidelines. We designed the 

entire Kirna Zabête at Target collection to mix 

and match together. You can get an entire 

wardrobe of downtown cool. There are only 

good combinations. It's a mini lesson in print 

mixing. A lesson in MORE is MORE and accessory 

madness. Wear a hat! Add a floral print trench 

coat! Take a tiny risk! S T R E T C H." - KIRNA ZABETE

When I first came across this I gave out a small shriek that merited a stare from the hubby. I think the duo couldn't have said it any better. I look up to these women who validate the voice of this blog (without them knowing it). And I highly appreciate products, concepts that are geared towards multifaceted mothers. They may just be talking about clothes, but they sure make motherhood all the more fun!

                           
                                    

Another collab to look forward to-- in exactly 15 days and 6 hours! Lucky you, stateside moms. Please share your hauls!
