Dreamer Girl: The Style Alien x Michal Golan


Necklace- Michal Golan
Dress- Forever 21

Michal Golan is a New York based handmade jewelry company whose aim is to produce unique and consciously made jewelry. If you've been following my blog, you'll know that I'm a huge jewelry fanatic but what drew my attention to this company so much is their middle eastern colours and the level of attention to detail put into creating these jewelry are beyond. They're made with mostly with semiprecious stones, glass beads and Swarovski crystal, and is the type of jewelry that can pretty much be worn with anything whether dressed up or down. The necklace I'm wearing for this look is from one of my favourite collections from them called "Metallika". Each of the pieces in this collection are literally breathtaking!, inspired by Medieval and Victorian jewelry. 

In continuing my quest to be a bit more feminine for this season, I chose to style my necklace with a off-white maxi lace dress that I can't seem to get over. When I saw this dress in Forever 21, I kind of had to do a double take because it's so beautiful! I'm not usually the type to wear maxi dresses mainly because I don't think I'm tall enough to hinder the dress from dragging on the floor...in which case I could just wear heels but I prefer maxi dresses wore simplistic with flats. I have tones of looks coming up later this week so hopefully in between packing out in my new apartment I can get a chance to post it on here. Have a great day!

Unrequited Love

Casual Fridays.


Peasant Top- Vintage 
Lace Blouse- Express
Boots- Coltrane by Jeffrey Campbell
Necklace- Nasty Gal


It's funny how I've been finding all these lost treasure in my closet since packing everything up to move out of my current apartment, for example this vintage peasant top that I've had for so long but somehow reappeared one day. I love tops like these because there is something so delicate and feminine about it that makes it so perfect for experimenting with. I could see myself dressing up this top for maybe a date, dinner or a night out with friends likewise, it's that piece that can easily transition into a daytime look. 

Since I've been so obsessed with wearing lace lately, I thought that wearing this buttoned up lace top from Express as like a short sleeve cardigan would add so much more depth and detail to this look and it light enough for a hot summer's day...definitely going to be wearing this black lace top a lot this summer. I kept it pretty casual with my favourite pair of chunky boots and ankled length pants because I somehow always pull for boots when all else fails!

Safe Haven


Top- Express
Skirt- Zara
Necklace- Vintage

About a few weeks ago I wore this feminine inspired look to hang out with a good friend of mine and this top was perfect for the occasion mainly because it was so sunny and beautiful outside and wearing something so lightweight and delicate seemed just about fitting for me. Thanks to a sale at Express, I was able to score this crochet tank top that has the most beautiful embroidery detail to it. To go with the overall look, I wore jewelry pieces that could accent the whole feminine idea I have going on. 
Today's my first official day of Summer and I couldn't be more excited to explore New York like never before plus I'll be moving in a few days so I'm interested to see where my new shooting spots will be. Have a great day!
