Spring fashion preview

Hello loves!

After a long winter, finally, spring is in the air!
Today was actually the first sunny day, after weeks of rain, snow and bad weather. I decided to make the most out of it and took my little son out for a walk.
I talked to him about how, soon the nature is going to awake from a winter's dream, and dress itself in beautiful pastels and bright colours :-)
My son ended up falling asleep in the sun, and when we arrived home he was still sleeping so I had some extra time to check my emails and browse through the internet a bit.

Our little talk about nature's awakening and dressing in colours, inspired me to go on line and see what's new in fashion trends for the new season.
FashionMia is one of my favourite on line destinations to browse through, in order to get inspired.
I was curious to see their new arrivals and what do they offer for the Spring season 2018.

I was looking at affordable dresses. Now that I'm a mum, I do have a budget and I don't want to spend too much money on myself: I always think of my baby's needs, he's my priority.
That's why affordable on line stores such as FashionMia are great options for us mums on a budget, but us mums who still love fashion, following trends and being stylish.

Here are some dresses I'll consider adding to my wardrobe to renew it for this spring:

Tropical print / palm tree leaves is always great option for warmer season. This Off Shoulder Flounce Tropical Floral Printed Skater Dress is such a cute dress; I love the off shoulders model and ruffles on the top.

Next dress that I love is this Square Neck Tribal Printed Skater Dress. 

The colour, the print, the model...everything about this dress appeals to me! Bright colours are definitely a big must in the warm season, and this dress looks perfect for whoever has very fun, young, flirty personality.

Next dress is a bit more "toned down", but I love the oversized models and stripes are always very cool, they never go out of style! Oversized Striped Round Neck Pocket Maxi Dress is ideal for casual wear and everyday errands, but you'll still look very chic & stylish. All you need to do is accessorize it with bold, statement jewellery, and you're good to go!

These were some of the cute dresses that caught my attention, but I also looked at womens skirts, and I found some great models that I'd like to share here and ask for your opinion: Which one do you like best?

This red Side Slit Single Breasted Plain Pencil Midi Skirt is a must for this new season! I love its simplicity, and side slit detail which makes it very feminine and up to date!

This Elegant Floral Printed Slit Pencil Midi Skirt is super cute, and I love the floral print. Despite the fact that it's black, with this bright floral print, it's appropriate for spring season.

Another very beautiful skirt for spring is this Plain Elastic Waist Chiffon Pleated Maxi Skirt it's very romantic, feminine and sophisticated. I love this color for spring season!

Those were some of my favourite items currently at FashionMia! Let me know which ones do you like best?

NEW IN: ROSEGAL HAUL / REVIEW

Hello beauties!

I have a little "New In" from Rosegal to share :-)
I hope that you'll like the bits that I picked out & hopefully this serves you as an inspiration.
I know I like to take a peek at these types of posts because I like to see how the item actually looks like in real life, and also find out a bit more about sizing and other things that might be useful to know, before placing an order.

This is a total of $ 65,37 spent (I actually had two orders).

Items shown in this haul:

Saturday Crew Neck Letter Jacquard Sweater (SOLD OUT)
Trendy Shirt Collar Long Sleeve Color Spliced Plaid Shirt (SOLD OUT) Fashionable Round Collar Star Pattern Long Sleeve Cardigan For Women - Black - One Size(fit Size Xs To M) (SOLD OUT) Stripe Side Slit Open Front Cardigan - Palomino - One Size: HERE Heart Shape Collarbone Necklace - Golden: HERE Statement Hollow Out Hoop Earrings - Silver: HERE Circle Vintage Hoop Earrings - Golden: HERE

Rosegal shopping tips:

Rosegal offers free shipping, but I'd suggest to add tracking number + shipping insurance (there is a small fee to pay). If you choose the free shipping option, arm yourself with patience; you'll need to wait several weeks for your package to arrive. 

There is a nice selection of trendy jewellery at very affordable prices, and their sweaters, cardigans and hoodies are also very nice, so I always take a look at their current offer.

The items get sold out pretty fast, especially if they're on promotion, so make sure to double check if the item that you'd like to order is in stock, and always go for the items that have "priority shipping" (which means they'll ship out 3-5 days after placing an order).
They also have tons of new arrivals, so take a peek often: You might be the first one to get that trendy new arrival, at great deal!

Always check the size chart and customer's reviews (if there is any), that's always super helpful, as sizing can be a little bit tricky and often items run small.

I hope that these few tips were helpful!

If you'd like to see how all these items look like on, and some extra tips on how to successfully shop at Rosegal, take a look at my haul video:

My Guide to On-line Shopping

Hi guys!

Today's post is going to be a little guide to on-line shopping!

I'm going to try and give you a couple of good tips on how to do a good on-line shopping, especially now, during the summer sales, when you can really get the best deals and revamp your wardrobe even with a small budget!

As you guys already know, I'm pretty much an expert when it comes to shopping on sales and getting the best deals ;)

I love to shop in regular stores, but on-line shopping is always appealing, especially since some of the items that are sold out in stores, may still be available on-line.

When it comes to shopping on sales, be wise about what you're going to purchase: I recommend going through your wardrobe and making a list of the things you really need!

Also, it is a good thing to inform yourself about the upcoming trends for the next season (most of the time, on sales, you can actually find the items that are going to be "big" even the next season!).

Fashion magazines, blogs, or the actual web stores, are a great place to get inspired!

When I shop on-line, I make sure that the store I'm shopping at, has a good reputation and great reviews/feedback from customers!

Another thing to keep in mind when on-line shopping, is the possibility to get coupons for even better deals!

Did you know that with coupons for on-line shopping, you can actually come across better deals than in regular stores?

It's always worth checking out, before completing your order, whether a certain web-store has currently got coupons and promo codes, for even better shopping experience!

I know that sometimes, looking up for coupons and checking out if they're still valid, can be a bit time consuming, but thankfully there is CupoNation, who do all the hard work for us and search for the best deals.

On CupoNation you will find the best deals for shopping at top stores such as ASOS, SurfStitch, Urban Outfitters and many more!

Make sure to check out their Top 20 coupons, because, as they say: "If there is a voucher code worh using it, they'll have it!"

With a help of coupons & promo codes, you can really revamp your wardrobe at a discounted price!

Recapping, my advices for a successful on-line shopping are:

1. Go through your closet to check out the "current situation" of your wardrobe
2. Make a list of the things you need (& stick to it!)
3. Get your inspiration from the fashion mags, bloggers, web-stores...
4. Check out for the upcoming trends/ trends that are going to be hot the next season
5. Make sure that the web store you're purchasing at has got a good reputation
6. Check out for coupons to get the best deals and the most out of your on-line shopping experience!

I hope these advices were helpful!
