Apparently neutrality is a concept that is too impossible for most of the population to understand. So I guess, if the world isn't ready for it, I might as well take it out on what I wear... I know I've been donning more than the usual neutral wear but be assured that if you were to look closely, there is still some variety and nuance offered in the pale hues I have been sporting. This time, it's been all about my beautiful new Givenchy Antigona which was perfectly matched with this sporty watercolor shirt I blatantly asked my mother to have since I love the detail and the colors (yes, when I want it and have to have it, I take it...as simple as that. I've always been a fan of playing a word game so for this post allow me to address: neutrality, nuances and nuisances. Allow me to dive deeper into this topic by addressing three things you don't always have to have: a side (to address neutrality), a disregard for the subtle differences that exist (to address how important considering the nuances) and an agreement (which for the past few weeks I personally find to be such a nuisance since I am far from privy to the idea of a mediation of any form happening and I will explain why.)

Pretty In Pastel
I always love reverting back to pastel shades. I always thought I was an all black, leather, biker chic kind of girl but apparently, like most things in life, things change. I changed and I decided calm neutrals and pastel shades are so light and easy on the eye which is why I have always been so proud to wear these hues whenever I go out...especially during the day. The past few days, the weather has been cooperative which results in my own sunny disposition. It is always fun to go out when it is bright and sunny, considering a lot of places in the city are open-air and sunshine-friendly.

Sweet and Wild

GRAY + BEIGE is ALL THE RAGE.
(Cream Jacket: Love Vintage | Leggings: Topshop | Shoes: Zara | Purse: Nina Ricci | Sunnies: Tom Ford)
Taking a break from all my dark hued and/or color pop inspired outfits, I decided to go all fresh and neutral in a pastel palette which consisted mostly of gray and beige (in the lightest tone possible). I have always been a fan of the color combination but never really got the chance to wear it as I am rarely in muted tones and I love to make a statement with my outfits but when I wore this, I realize, subtlety is also a great statement to make. I have had these ruched leggings from Topshop for the longest time, I forgot about them but as I was desperate for leg coverage (due to the excessive bruising I've been getting lately, which I am trying to cure), I found these stashed away in my closet and decided it was time to whip 'em out and take it for a spin around town. I wore it with a Love Vintage cream blazer and my Nina Ricci purse. Key item was the Tom Ford shield sunglasses from my sister which glammed up the look. It's a new look for me as I am either girly, rocker or glam...hope it worked!
