My look today.
I know this dress looks a bit like lingerie, maybe even pyjamas, but it definitely isn't. my mom bought it for me two years ago, from a store near Boston, Massachusetts. It was close to $100, and I still adore it. It is knit, paired with an extremely sheer fabric. There is a sheer slip underneath as well, to make sure it's not see-through. It flatters the figure and is a beautiful color.
Also, I have a new found love for legwarmers. They are incredibly comfortable and tend to make things look a little bit more sexy.
What do you think?
Love Always,
Juliette

A Vacation in Paradise
I have arrived home from my two week vacation! I had a lovely time, took many pictures, and spent all of my money. I will soon post picture of the things I have bought, I'd love to hear what you think!
I love everything I bought so much. I went a bit out of my realm of comfort, and I ended up buying a lot of floral prints. (My boyfriend will not be happy; he hates floral print!) But I shop for my happiness and comfort, not his.
I love Rome. Everything about Rome is beautiful and memorable. We saw the main tourist attractions, such as the Forum, the Vatican, the Sister Chapel, the Pantheon, the Flavian Amphitheatre (or more commonly known as the Colosseum), as well as numerous other things.
Have you ever heard of the Borghese Gardens? It is a large expanse of land with such beautiful attractions. Within the Villa Borghese is Galleria Borghese and, drum roll please, a zoo!
You will not believe the fantastic gluten free food which they have there! Beautiful, and not to mention delicious. By law, they needed to add something to the dish to show that it was gluten free. Some places placed a flag, other added a dash of sauce on the side of the dish.
Doesn't that look fantastic? My mouth is watering just looking at it.
That's all for now, darlings. More to come soon!

Fashion - 0001
I am a fashionista, there is no point in trying to deny it. I live for fashion. I love fashion magazines, but I find that some things they post are absolutely atrocious. When I was at the hospital last week, I was going through a fashion magazine to pass the time, and they were showing an entire photo shoot with high heeled sandals and socks. socks! I do think that, if done well, socks and heels can look amazing, except every single one in this magazine I found absolutely revolting. I find that socks and heels can look hot, but most of the time it looks trashy and ugly.
I'm getting off track again. The point of the post was to share why I love shopping so incredibly much. I don't think it's the typical reasons like the feeling of owning something new, or the fact that new combinations can be made (though I do love that too!). No, the reason I love buying clothes so much is because I so much enjoy finding a place for them in my wardrobe. I love how buying a color I don't normally owns adds another piece to my cupboard.
I recently bought a pale, floral dress, which is completely out of my comfort zone. I tend to enjoy wearing dark colors to contrast my pale skin. Let me tell you, the floral amongst all the dark colors was absolutely beautiful.
That's all for now, I hope everyone has a lovely Friday evening!
