My Personal Style: Fall Layering Tricks September 29 2016, 2 Comments

The sun starts to set a little earlier and there’s an undeniable crisp chill in the air... Season of layering and chic outerwear has officially begun!
Yup, 
fall is around the corner indeed and for many fashion lovers, it's favourite period of the year! Why? Because it's time for some serious layering and layering your clothes is one of the most effective ways to put together a unique and interesting outfit.
When layering, you have to try contrasting colours as well as experiment with different fabrics and textures. Creating contrasts with materials such as wool, leather, fur, silk and knitwear will add an extra dimension to your look. Beside the stylish part, layering is also super practical during transitional weather period, when temperatures tend to vary a lot from morning till dawn. You just take off the coat or jacket and you're quickly adapted for warmer temperature.
In this look, I played with many different materials - leather, faux leather, wool, fur and knit and black colour was a base for the colourful pieces such as our best seller ruffle coat in turquoise, purple python skin boots and or amazing fur collar in beautiful mix of black, silver, purple and blue. Adding an unexpected twist to the look was crucial because of the colour matching, so pop of red zebra pattern in a form of the cutest little clutch, 
attached to my bigger tote was the perfect eye catching accessory to complement this layered fall look.
Dare to go bold this fall and create unexpected layering looks that are sure to make you stand out.

My Personal Style: Take A Little Coffee Break September 18 2016, 6 Comments

The importance of rituals... I guess the need for ritual is a basic human instinct, as urgent as our need for food, shelter and love. Everybody, everywhere seems to be busy and stress is becoming an assumption of modern life. So, it's important to take time for yourself, even if only half an our a day. I always love to take some time while being busy in Ljubljana city center and just take a little coffee break, sit down, relax and observe the people rushing around, some dressed really well and therefore being my inspiration and food for my soul... So, here I am, taking some time off during a busy day, wearing my absolute favorites: The Lie by JPZ statement shirt from SS 16 CiTy cHiC collection & black croc shopper with this amazing leopard coat from the latest FW 16/17 Haute Hippie collection. Yes, always, every fall, there is a leopard trend fashioistas just can't avoid, making it urban, edgy and super cool!

Statement belt is certainly an accessory that can make any look glamorous in an instant. Also, when we come down to beach outfits.

Travel Diary: Romania Part 3 - Sibiu August 17 2016, 2 Comments

Sibiu is a beautiful city in Transylvania, located 215 km north-west of Bucharest. Now the capital of Sibiu County, in the past - between 1692 and 1791 and 1849-1865 Sibiu was the capital of the Principality of Transylvania.
Sibiu is one of the most important cultural centre of Romania and was designated the European Capital of Culture for the year 2007. You just can not help yourself but to fall in love with it, once you are there. With small streets, beautiful old houses, cute restaurants, bakeries and antique shops, Sibiu is almost a copy of Ljubljana's old town, my home, so I guess this is one of the reasons I was immediately stunned by this adorable place. When there, just relax, enjoy good food, nice people and get carried away by amazing repertoires - Sibiu has three theatres, philharmonic orchestra and an annual festival of performing arts, called Sibiu International Theatre Festival.  Interestingly - 
the old city of Sibiu was ranked as "Europe's 8th most idyllic place to live" by Forbes in 2008. 

Rich with museums and theatres, Sibiu is a place to see for every culture lover out there.

Travel Diary: Romania Part 2 - Clubbing August 14 2016, 1 Comment

I’ve seen a lot of the world and visited many parties. But, no one does it better than the Romanians. I love club Loft in Bucharest. It’s the perfect fusion of amazing kitchen, bar, breath taking architecture, good music and amazing party. The concept of dining which slowly transforms to partying is simply the best for me. With this original concept Loft generates its own special energy. Like they say – to truly understand what Loft is all about, you have to be there at least once. And I promise – you won’t regret it! There, you truly start to realize that dining could happen at a spiritual level.
So, now being at Mamaia beach, very well known for amazing beach clubs, visiting Loft Mamaia was a must. They open at 3PM, serving amazing drinks and lunch and eating delicious food spontaneously turns into a party. Yes, the art is, that you barely notice transition…
And what is party without amazing friends? Meet my party animal, The Lie by JPZ Stylemaker Buta Oana Elena! I guess I am a very lucky person. Through my work as a designer, I’ve met so many amazing women that became my great source of inspiration. But some of this relationships turned to great friendships and Oana with her Otto are certainly one of them.
Visiting a beach club also demands a slightly different type of beach outfit. I love to work around a simple bikini, elevating it with silk tunic or scarf, belt, clutch and a lot of jewellery. Jewellery stack stack stack + layer layer layer was a key outfit component this time and I just loved the classic yet sexy result I achieved with it in the end. On the other hand - I loved how Oana worked around a simple white t-shirt, making her statement bra with The Lie by JPZ belt & fringed clutch the focal point of her look. Chic with a sprinkle of boho and a lot, a lot of sexy, Oana surely makes one of our favourite The Lie by JPZ Stylemakers!

Travel Diary: Romania Part 1 - Mamaia Beach August 13 2016, 5 Comments

Ever since I've visited Romania and Bucharest for the first time, I somehow fell in love with it. Beautiful cities, amazing history, nice people and most outstanding clubs and restaurants with delicious food are the reasons every traveler should visit this great country. And after beautiful cities, there comes luxurious seaside with beautiful Mamaia beach. Considered to be Romania's most popular resort, Mamaia is situated north-east of Constanza's city center on the Romanian Black Sea shore. Populated mostly during the summer, Mamaia is the perfect place for good food and music in stylish beach clubs. From a wide range of exclusive beach clubs, my pick during the day was Fratelli Beach&Club, serving a complete experience: delightful food in a beautifully designed restaurant and cozy big white wooden seats with even bigger umbrellas to protect and give you the much needed shadow from the hot sun. With beautiful beach setting and decor, feel free to go to the beach as chic as you can, since this is is surely the place where you'll see plenty of very good beach looks - yup, Romanian beauties know very well how it's done. Just throw on your favorite bikini and glam it up with some killer accessories - cool sunglasses, statement jewelry and a gorgeous bag will certainly do the trick!

My Personal Style: Miramare in marinière July 01 2016, 3 Comments

Marinière stripes are big every season, for years, over and over again. And, to be honest, one of the most stylish summer trends you can never go wrong with. 
And, what is great about marine stripes even more is that when you mix them up together, they look extremely cool and fashionable and you don’t have to worry about mixing them in the right way (when it comes down to other patterns, you do have to be careful when mixing & matching them though).
Of course, me being me, I just had to add some extra unexpected twist to the look and complement it with our gorgeous The Lie by JPZ mint python effect leather clutch together with some other statements, such as chunky jewellery and studded belt.

Oh, and the sunsets at castello Miramare are just outstanding…

My Personal Style: Aloha Sunday Sunset June 19 2016, 1 Comment

Unlike studio strobes, natural lighting changes hour to hour, day to day, season to season, and of course, location to location.  It’s always something new and different! But for me, the most beautiful is the summer sunset light, always making you look warm & beautiful. The last 30 minutes of daylight, on up to about 20 minutes after sunset are definitely the best recipe on how to make amazing photos for your blog, Facebook, Instagram, or well, just for yourself. Now, from the light, let’s talk about dressing down that has never looked so cool as now, with our stunning fringed summer shoppers. Agree? I like to go casual on Sundays, but still want to create a special, comfortable, yet chic look at the same time.
Special is our IT BAG of the season from cruise 2017 Señorita collection, golden fringed bag with bamboo handles, casual are jeans and this fun sweater, while comfortable yet chic represent this retro inspired cool pair of Renini sandals.

My Personal Style: Red Jumpsuit For Saturday Night Out June 11 2016, 1 Comment

Red is the color of extremes. It's the color of passionate love, seduction, violence, danger, anger, and adventure. Having said that, it is the perfect color for Saturday night out and what better way than doing it effortless cool in our luxurious all-in-one.

Yes, jumpsuits are effortless, chic and fun. But there are some good tips and tricks you should follow :

  1. Finding a jumpsuit that fits your body perfectly is key to looking polished and put together. Don’t wear anything too tight or too loose.
  2. Don’t loose your figure. A lot of jumpsuits have either a cloth belt or you can easily add your own belt to define your waist if the jumpsuit isn’t tailored. Emphasising your waist is a great way to give you that curvy look.
  3. A jumpsuit can easily be dressed up for a formal event, when the style of the jumpsuit is appropriate. All you have to do is accessorize it to fit the party.

So, this Saturday, add some attitude to your wardrobe, make a statement at the party and go for our sexy red jumpsuit, spiced up with green tassel pochette!

My Personal Style: Chic On The Go - Sweat Pants With Pumps June 02 2016, 1 Comment

Ever since the JLo's I'm gonna be alright music video release in 2001, I am absolutely obsessed with pairing tracksuit bottoms and heels. Cozy, yet effortlessly chic and very very cool. And while your job may not allow you this kind of looks, travel getaways do! When you want to look extremely stylish while stepping off the plane after a long hour flight, just throw on some sweat pants, cool T-shirt, tailored blazer, statement bag and killing heels, and there's an urban fashionista making everybody go like "wow, how does she pull it off?"  This travel look also comes in hand when your trip is of a business nature and you are picked by your busses partners already at the airport. It enables you to travel comfortable in your sneakers and when arrived at destination, you transform and elevate your look with a pair of beautiful heels, making bold, contrasting and urban yet chic and unusually elegant appearance.

Pop of yellow will always brighten up your day, especially, if it comes in a form of super chic and funny accessory, such as our furry clutch. In the winter time a luxurious hand muff, in the summer the chicest accessory, to which you can attach another small pochettes in different colours, to perfectly match several looks. 
Pop of colour always adds a lot of life to the outfit - it’s a way of adding a real eye-catching piece to your look that will draw attention! Adding a pop of color in the form of a handbag or shoe is the chicest way, while the rest of the look remains simple and neutral.

So, do dare and go bold with our furry yellow clutch!
