Revintage Store

Revintage Store is a Portuguese store selling unique and exclusive clothes and jewelry with a retro look that makes them simply irresistible.  They started as a hobbie initially but thanks to the receptiveness of its clients, it quickly grew into an online store. All products are immediately available and are shipped within 3 working days.

They were really kind to send me this lovely bracelet that comes in 5 different colours and retails at €10 each.

I got the silver one that is really versatile and can be paired with lots of different colours. It's really light and the strap is made out of leather and has 2 adjustable sizes.

As you can see, I chose to pair it with a striped peplum top, black trousers and a geometric necklace making the outfit really simple yet classic.

I survived the apocalypse!

Now that it's the 22nd of December, I can safely say that this Mayan 'End of the World' is finally over. I mean, I never believed that crap anyway cause since I was born about 7 apocalypses have been predicted and they were all fake. People just tend to overreact to these type of news and want to believe that there's somehow a reason for the creation of mankind etc. 

Anyways, this means that everyone can finally resume to their daily lives without being harassed by random posts on FB and tweets about how the world is going to end and those documentaries about people hiding in bunkers and hoarding food ahah.

Top 3 Fashion Trends of 2012

For the month of December and as Christmas draws near, I would like to introduce you to the Top 3 Fashion Trends of 2012!

1. Studs

Throughout this last year, studs have been the ‘it’ trend to follow. I’ve literally seen it everywhere from boots to jackets, shirts to bags and lots of it in jewelry.

  

Personally I’m in love with this trend as I think it just adds a touch of ‘originality’-depends how many pieces you have with studs of course- and a pop of class to any outfit. I’ve actually ordered some from Ebay and customized 2 of my own shorts!

  

2. Detachable Collars

OMG I’m in love with collars! I don’t know why this trend didn’t quick off way before. I mean, they are so easy to use, all you have to do is add it on top of your top and it will easily blend into your current style or make you more stylish.

The collar above got sent to me from one of my sponsors and it can even be worn as a necklace.

3. Head wraps

I have to admit that this isn’t my favourite trend of the year because wearing a warm fuzzy thing on my head just won’t make me feel more confident as it spoils my hair and makes me look weird. However as you can see from the models above, some people can just make it work! Maybe its because I’ve got straight Asian hair that won’t look pretty unless it’s just straight and simple… I’ve seen lots of people wearing it on the streets and all the mainstream fashion stores have been selling them for accessible prices such as Zara, H&M and Primark.

Hey guys!

So I've finally succumbed to the world of blogging...

Ok so maybe I'm not entirely new to the blogging community. Many of you may already know me from Tumblr where I regularly post as http://dianacqin.tumblr.com. 

I started that Tumblr about a year ago and I never thought something could be as much fun, fulfilling and entertaining at the same time! I'm extremely grateful for all my lovely followers and hitting 20,000 followers this year was a big milestone for me.I cannot believe how incredibly fast the last year went by with all the wonderful people I've met through Tumblr and all the fantastic things I learnt from it such as editing themes with HTML, marketing tips, the world of fashion blogging sited like IFB and Bloglovin. But I think the best thing about it was the fact that it inspired me to dream bigger and actually chase my dreams. 

For tonight, this will be it as I had been unsure for a while if I was going to start a blog where I would share more about myself, my life and opinions and creating it just now was just a spur of the moment type of thing ahah. 

More posts coming tomorrow! xoxo
