POST PREVIEW
Coming soon to a Duck Duck Boot near you!
This week is quite busy. I can’t wait for things to slow down a bit so I can focus on the blog. I will do my best to get some new content up here really soon! I’ve got some good stuff in store, so stay tuned!
I wanted to dedicate this extra special post to my beautiful mum! Just for mother’s day!
I love you so much, mama! Happy mother’s day!
Love,
Annaliza
When I first introduced these heels, I hinted at an upcoming post and here it is!
I like to call these jeans my man repeller jeans. This is because most people don’t find boyfriend jeans attractive, especially the men. However, it is not the jeans that repel, it’s the outfit as a whole. So here is my secret to making boyfriend jeans more feminine: peplum tops and a pair of structured heel. It’s as simple as that. The peplum adds more shape to the shapeless jeans and the heels add the woman factor making the boyfriend jeans go from man repeller to man charmer!

Here’s a sneak peek of my upcoming post! Coming soon to a Duck Duck Boot near you!
This outfit is quite surprising to me. First, I normally wouldn’t have picked out a dress like this. Second, I didn’t expect so many people to go out of their way to come up to me and compliment it. I liked the dress before, but I think I love it now!
It is a very basic dress, which makes it easy to accessorize. As you may know already from my previous outfit posts, my style is very minimalist, so I rarely wear accessories. Even though the outfit is accessorized it is still very basic. I also love how the shape of the dress is modest, but the slit adds a little bit of an edge to the look.
On the other hand, did anyone see a bit of the Met this year? The brilliance of punk and glamour! Ah! It was gorgeous! Not that my outfit reflects much punk, but I do like to think that it makes me look a little tough!

At last! I realize it’s been a long time since I uploaded an outfit post. I’m sorry! But here it is! Yayy!
How is everyone’s Saturday? I sincerely hope it is better than mine! For the past few days I have been so sick. Ugh! I can’t stand being sick! I had this whole photoshoot planned out and of course, man plans and God laughs because I got sick on the very days I had reserved for photos. It’s funny how that happens.
Anyway, enough about that, I am halfway there with exams! Just a little bit longer and I can devote my life to my baby again. (NOTE: That baby being this blog, of course!). I can’t wait for it all to be over! I want summer!!

Here is a sneak peek at my outfit! Coming soon to a Duck Duck Boot near you!
Happy Monday! I realize those are two seemingly contradicting terms, but I find that Mondays are more bearable when I decide to wake up in a good mood. Figures, right? Anyhow, for a spring day, it is quite chilly out. I find myself shivering a bit and longing for the sunshine we had over the weekend, but oh well.
As I had mentioned previously, my life has been quite hectic lately. I just finished up the costumes for the theater production I had mentioned. They turned out great! The show was quite a success as well. As for school, it’s just getting started for me. I have a lot of exams coming up in the following weeks, so I will apologize in advance for my distant presence on the blog!

I really enjoy photography, but I think the best thing about it is the final outcome. There is nothing like taking a photo that I may not be crazy about and cropping it just right along with the perfect edits and filters. And just like that, I have a completely different photograph. When I first started to take photography more seriously, I dove right into what made me love photography most—the fashion part of it. I started learning all I could about using a camera and the right way to take a photo. Meanwhile, I began to find that I could really express my true self through photography. I love fashion (is that obvious?) and I love photography (I might have mentioned that before?), so combining the two gave me enough inspiration to keep it up and I have for almost two years now!
I still can’t believe this photo. I took this photo. One of the rare cases in which I surprise myself…
Anyway, I am incredibly excited to wear these shorts! They’re vintage! I actually found a pair of 80s jeans and cut them to the right length. It seems that the only high waist denim shorts that are in stores these days are daisy dukes. It’s a shame because some of us ladies actually want to cover our bodies, thank you very much!
I hope to feature these shorts in a post very soon! I’m just waiting for the weather to warm up a bit more. I just decided to post this as a little sneak peek into my summer wardrobe for this year!
Please don’t change the source. This is my photo. Thank you.
THIS WEEK ONLY get 25% off your Motel Rocks purchase when you use the code duckduckboot !
I want to freshen up my spring wardrobe with a few of these items. I can’t decide what to get! There are so many things that I love at Motel. The crazy thing is, Motel has been worn by celebrities like Miley Cyrus and Jessie J, but when I mention it to people in the US, they usually don’t know about it. It’s a pretty fashionable site featuring anything from playsuits (or rompers), cropped tops, creepers, circle skirts, jewelry, shoes, etc. So check them out! Maybe buy me a present or two!!
And don’t forget to use the code!!!!
Here’s another little something from my photography collection. I created this photo to look like an old Polaroid to go with the style of the skirt and the time period that it was inspired by. The outfit reminds me of spring and with the cold weather here in New York, I would love to be experiencing spring weather already! That groundhog couldn’t have been more wrong about spring! I am freezing! I honestly wouldn’t mind a little global warming right now.
This is probably one of my coolest (and coldest) photoshoots by far. The idea for this creepy one-woman masquerade in the woods was so fantastic, but I must admit it was not my idea. It was a fellow blogger and friend of mine, Vanessa’s (vintagecitygirl). We spent the day photographing this shoot and another one for her blog featuring her (she looks fantastic as a stylish mad hatter!). It was fun posing in the woods and looking all mysterious, but it was really cold. I had goosebumps! Either way, the shoot turned out great! And I am so happy with the results!
Introducing (drum roll please) … the latest addition to my shoe collection! These are my new floral pumps! I can guarantee their appearance in another outfit post really soon.
