Bittersweet Nights, and Unicorns

This week has been quite a busy one, so I took a few days
off to get things in order, as well as finish a few projects that I can’t wait
to share with you very soon. I was hoping to get to do a bit of vintage
shopping earlier in the week, but I could not even get motivated after being
somewhat frosty and then exhausted from the autumn day. Fortunately, dressing
brightly for most of the week helped to boost my happiness!

Several weeks ago, I was asked to try out a few items from TrendyFine, and selected this big comfy sweatshirt. I actually don’t have many sweatshirts at all, but I wanted to
style this one. It has a screened unicorn on the front, which I loved. I figured
that a little fashion-fable of a unicorn couldn’t hurt!

When one typically thinks about unicorns, pastel colours, or somewhat ethereal and fanciful imagery comes to mind, but the simple black and white actually
worked well for me. Plus, it was an easy outfit to wear to an evening art
showing. It was one of those nights where I had a few options to choose from for attending multiple events. However, at the end of the day we were disappointed and wished that
we had went to option A, instead of option C.

All I did was take off my blazer, to make this outfit more
casual, which suited the laid back ambiance. And, thank goodness, we ate
beforehand, as the food and wine options were underwhelming, to say the least. Has
that ever happened to you before?

I hope
you have a wonderful weekend. Do you have anything exciting planned?

Well, here’s some unicorn inspiration to make you happy!

    I like your unicorn-leather mix. very sharp! black in your skirt and black in your new sweatshirt look perfect together and white+black is always a great choice. so I definitely love that look of yours!

    I soooo love this look! Black skirt and jumper! Very chic. I don't know if you ever read Sweet Valley High (hahaha); I wanted to be part of the Unicorn Club and wear purple/lavender on some days. This is one of your ensembles that I particularly love. Hope you're having a good start to the week x

    You have a talent. You take even simple things and make them beautiful. Using a unicorn without pink and bright colors is inspired. The b/w color-scheme works perfectly. And who doesn't like unicorns?

    Now, a sweatshirt is something I would just about never reach for (maybe I still haven't recovered from the daily wearing of a school sweatshirt). However, you make this combination look so effortlessly stylish through pairing it with a leather skirt. It's a little bit of genius.
