Monday a la Mode – Palazzo pants

I’m pretty sure these pants are what Leandra would call ‘Man Repellers’. Some would call them pyjama pants. I call them ‘Palazzo’ pants. That seems to be the correct word for this wide, flowy and not-so-sexy legwear. Even though most men would prefer bare legs or skinny jeans, the Palazzo pants is the eyecatcher of every outfit. Wear it with a simple top and some heels or even flipflops, and you’re good to go. Just like the maxi-skirt, these pants are ideal for a hot summer day or evening. Plus, sometimes you have to repel some men to look fashionable.

Monday a la Mode – Pretty Prints

Lately I’ve been coming across some really pretty and bold prints. Not only in clothing, but also in interiors. More on that later. Although I love a simple white/black/grey outfit, the world could use a little more color. Here are some of my favorite streetstyle outfits with pretty prints. I especially love Solange Knowles’ suit and -as you can see- I still can’t get enough of Elena Perminova’s skirt & peplum ensemble.
