Modern Shift Dress

How about a splash of lemon yellow for the summer. This outfit features a charming shift dress with front draped detail by Karen Millen. The top handle bag from Dolce & Gabbana has woven rafia details to play off the braided detail on the Prada platform sandals. Wear this to the office and top it with a wide-brimmed straw hat to protect your precious skin from the harmful UV rays when you go outside. :)

A Sleek White Suit

This set recently received an honorary mention from the White Looks contest on Polyvore. The judge said "This fabulous set features a stunning white look with a little retro charm, which comes from the incorporation of a beautifully designed floral top. Furthermore, this set contains a lot of wonderful brands like: Alexander McQueen, Michael Kors, Balenciaga, Viktor&Rolf, and Chanel. Its definitely a must see. Check it out and comment/like to support this member's work if you like this just as much as I do."

Well, I feel very honored to received such a nice review and want to share it with you.

Givenchy Leopard Halter Top

This halter top by Givenchy has subtle leopard print and very chic zipper details. I make a dressy casual outfit with a pair of sleek white shorts, wooden heel sandals and a quilted handbag.

Trend: Cold Shoulders

I recently noticed that some tops and dresses have cut out at the shoulders. They are chicly called 'Cold Shoulder'. I think it's a nice trend for the hot summer. Take a look at this collection. You can click on the individual image to see a larger image and description.
