Bag stories

Shopping addiction is still going strong.

 Just as if I don't have enough bags, I've been eyeing some of these.

 The good news is that some of them are starting to go on sale.  The bad news is  - I'm very indecisive and will probably change my mind like million times before I actually pick the one I like. There are so many good bags out there. 

Last week I went through my bag collection and gave up few of my bags to my mom.  

Therefore, I'm looking for some replacements:)

1. Python Embossed clutch by Allibelle 

2. Cross body bag by Z Spoken Zac Posen 

3. Shirley Bow satchel by Z Spoke Zac Posen

4. Back Pocket clutch by Marc By Marc Jacobs

Summer days

Hi guys!

Just a recap of last Sunday. Morning was spent at this lovely farm, where we got to pick some sweet peas and strawberries. The weather was perfect too, couldn't ask for better.

How is everyone's summer going so far?

 XOXO, Olya

Peter Pan collar.

It's funny how trends  tend to come back  after many years. We are all obsessed with neons, friendship bracelets, and big chunky jewelry pieces, that were so popular in the 80's and 90's. And now another  old trend from the past, this Peter Pan collar necklace. I love it! 

I don't know if any of you watch the show Pretty Little Liars, but in the last season  (season 2), last episode, where Spencer was at the masquerade  ball she wore a mustard dress and this very lovely collar necklace. Ever since then, I was looking for one. I found few eBay retailers who make these and was sort of putting off ordering from there, cause I was hoping to find one in a local store. (I hate paying shipping). 

And  finally, I  was in H&M the other day and they had this lovely piece. Can't wait to put more wear into it. 

What do you think of these? Yay or Nay?

Like usual, made my collage for instagram.  My user name is olhabear.

XOXO, Olya

Instagraming

Instagram! I am bananas about insragram! I almost never go on on Facebook and twitter  anymore. But I am always on Instagram. My username is : olhabear, feel free to join.

And now that we are on this subject, here is a little collage of my "feet" that I've instagramed in the past weeks or so.

XOXO, Olya

I'm very sad to report that I am back from vacation.

  But, I 'm already planning my next one! 

I want to say that this was the first time in my life, when I truly relaxed. It might sound selfish, but I really enjoyed being away from all the busy and active lives we lead in the  States. 

I love my life, but I do enjoy these getaways! 

I was thinking of going to the other hemisphere for the next vacation. Any recommendations? Maybe Greek islands, or Thailand? or even Paris? 

I don't know, but we shall see something new:)

Hey guys!

Welcome to all of my new readers! I'm very excited to have you here on my blog!

And hello to my old readers, who've hung around through these couple of rough months. 

I hope everyone is doing well. 

Just wanted to stop by and share with you my latest addition to the shoe family that I have at a current residence of mine.  These are as perfect as I would want them to be. Very comfortable  and oh so pretty.

skin care

Hey there!

After a long battle with different skin care products I came back to my old and  well know clarisonic.

I tried many face cleansers with it, and the latest one that I'm using is this one by Benefit. So far no breakouts, and everything is going smoothly. I've used it for about 2 weeks now. A lot of people like it and recommend it. I gave it a try and it seems to work just fine. I have to warn you though, it has a pleasant but very strong smell. Therefore, may not work everyone.

xoxo, Olya

MARNI kind of day

These designer collaborations with H&M are becoming like a special occasion to see my two dear friends from my freshman year in college. We hang out, we gossip, we shop. 

I didn't get much, but at least I had an awesome time with my girls!

Did any of you shopped this collection? They had some seriously awesome accessories, 

which were gone so fast!

New on the shelf

I've got mint green on my mind...

Zara shoes

I never thought I would say this (fall and winter lover), but I cannot wait for Spring!

Few inspirational pictures to cheer up the last weekend of winter.

in love...

overdue.

I am finally posting some pictures from the FNO in NYC. It was a lot of fun and I can't wait to see what will they come up with for the next year! Huge Thank you to my girls Diana and Mary, who were so much fun to hang out with!

{I wore: faux leather shorts from F21, silk blouse from DKNY, coat from H&M, boots from shopbop.com, watch - MK, bag- Tignanello}

Hi guys!

Didn't do much today. I was planning to go to the NYC but then we decided to stay in and watch some TV. I'm reading The Hunger Games right now, so I was more pleased to stay home anyway.

And now we just got home from dinner.

This is what I wore:

-dress - Forever 21

- sandals - Steve Madden

-bag - Tignanello

Hello, hello!

Hi guys! So... where should I begin.

I've been MIA for almost the entire summer and there is really no reason for it except the fact that I was sort of uninspired to blog. I like to write posts when I really have something to write/post. Otherwise, just posting to post is not me.

I hope to be more around now and we shall see where I will take this blog. I might change some things around. Anyway, we'll see.

For now, just a small post on something that I wore today.

{shirt from H&M, shorts from Lauren Conrad collection for Kohl's, shoes Vivienne Westwood}

Sun + H2O...

So, I will start with the fact that I've been super lazy. You know, the usual summer stuff: beach, books, work, more beach.

Last weekend I enjoyed a little getaway with the fam to the lake. It's almost as a family tradition now, we are always on the lake for the 4th of July. And it's the place to be!

Hope you guys, are having an awesome summer!

Just remember to stock up on sunblock:)

{I wore: dress- Forever21, flip-flops - Havaianas, sunglasses - Cole Haan, pandora hat from Aerie, necklace from Hautelook.com}
