casual Monday evening

Hi, people!

As you can see, it's quite cold here in Zagreb at the moment. All the winter "equipment" is taken out of the closet. I didn't even want to go out yesterday, but my boyfriend somehow managed to persuade me. I just can't resist his beautiful big brown eyes. He's the master of persuasion! 

And when you're "forced" to go out there's nothing better than a warm mug of caffe latte or mulled red wine on cold Monday evening in a cozy bar... 

I know the quality of the indoor photos is not as good as the outdoor photos (especially during the daylight), but it's actually too cold for outdoor photo shoots when the temperature is 2 or 3 degrees Celsius outside. Brrrrr! I truly despise autumn and winter. :D

Coat: Topshop, A/W 2010/11

Leather gloves: Accessorize, A/W 2011/12

Jeans: Topshop, A/W 2010/11

T-shirt: Miss Selfridge, S/S 2011

Desert boots: Eden Shoes, S/S 2010 (bought in Paris)

Bag: Accessorize, A/W 2011/12

Yes, I know these desert boots are visually not the most beautiful pair of shoes ever, but they're so warm, comfortable and soft. I adore them! 

Let's face it, I prefer commodity over visual impression. You'll see me wearing high heels maybe once or twice a year. I'm not like other fashion bloggers walking around in Jeffrey Campbell's Litas and other high-heeled shoes. That's just not me and I prefer to stay true to myself and my style. Not that I have something against high heels, don't take it wrong... I love seeing them on other people, it's just that I don't like wearing them.
