How To Style Shiny Patent Leather Pants
If you’re like me and love the look of shiny patent leather pants, but you’re reluctant about what to pair them with, fear not. Below I’m explaining why this outfit works and how you can take those style tips to apply to your own wardrobe.
A feminine blouse with voluminous sleeves in a silk or satin fabric will instantly add some glamour to patent leather and make it appear more high-fashion.
If you're looking for a coat or blazer for your outfit, consider a black or grey plaid number if you have a cool-tone white blouse. If you've opted for warm-whites (ivory, cream, ecru), then run with the warm theme by adding a beige or brown neutral-toned coat or blazer. A pop of color is also a good option, as we see in with the red glasses worn here.
Finally for shoes, texture will be your best friend. Go for a faux snakeskin or an elegant jacquard boot to create separation from your pant and boot.

What I Wore This Week, Ep. 1 | Ringing In The New Year
I’m very much a homebody, so my ideal New Year’s Eve situation is hanging out on the couch with a glass of bubbly and watching some Netflix. Admittedly, we laid low during the Christmas break due to Geoff catching the flu, so there aren’t too many exciting outfits to show. Despite this, here are some outfits I wore/ featured on my Instagram this past week.
1// BALENCIAGA LOGO SCARF
2// SAINT LAURENT SHEARLING LOU BUMBAG
3// WINTER LOUNGEWEAR
4// VELVET FOR NEW YEAR’S
5// MICHAEL KORS LOVE T-SHIRT
6// SHOES, SHOES, SHOES
7// CARTEL BOOTS FROM MONTREAL

Maison Margiela REPLICA BY THE FIREPLACE
If you’re a fan of warm and mysterious scents, then you should definitely check out Maison Margiela’s By The Fireplace scent from their REPLICA Collection.
“By the Fireplace is a warm and spicy fragrance that evokes the comforting sensation of a crackling fireplace beside a frosted winter landscape with enveloping notes of clove, chestnut, and vanilla accord.”
The scent has a similar vibe to Jazz Club, another Margiela favourite of mine for many years now.
“Jazz Club is a woody and spicy fragrance that reminisces of an anthology of classic cocktails and coppery tones through balmy, rich notes of rum absolute blended with an underscore of tobacco leaf absolute.”
Finally if you want to dip your toes into the water before committing to a full bottle, check out the REPLICA Memory Box limited edition set, which includes 10 of Maison Margiela’s evocative fragrances (2mL each scent) - Lazy Sunday Morning, Jazz Club, Beach Walk, At the Barber's, By the Fireplace, Music Festival, Flower Market, Sailing Day, Under the Lemon Trees, and Whispers in the Library.

20 Best Hailey Bieber Outfits Feat. Balenciaga
Hailey Bieber’s closet is full of amazing Balenciaga pieces. She put the Hourglass bag on the map, she repeatedly wears her Knife boots, and she’s not afraid to wear pieces from the men’s collection.
Her style is always balanced with feminine and masculine pieces and she’s not afraid to wear an oversized jacket with a body-con mini dress. Even when she’s wearing sweatpants and a sweatshirt, the girl knows how to accessorize and bring an outfit to life. Her signature pieces are her gold hoops and Celine rectangular sunglasses, which sadly for us, are no longer available.
Keep scrolling for the Best of Hailey Bieber’s Balenciaga clad outfits.
BALENCIAGA BB SLIPPERS
1// Balenciaga’s BB Cosy Slippers with a green track suit.
2// Balenciaga’s BB Cosy Slippers with a cozy knit sweater and Staud Frida handbag.
3// Balenciaga’s BB Cosy Slippers with oversized Levi’s and a leather jacket.
BALENCIAGA HOURGLASS BAGS
4// Hailey pairs an oversized blazer with her Bottega Veneta red Intrecciato Lido Heeled Sandals and a black croc Balenciaga Hourglass bag.
5// Mom jeans paired with a strappy tank and red Balenciaga Hourglass bag.
6// Hailey wears the same outfit two different ways by simply layering an oversized hoodie overtop.
BALENCIAGA HOURGLASS COAT
7// Hailey wears a stunning leather Balenciaga Hourglass coat from the SS20 collection. She pairs it with tall boots and a black XXS Top Handle Ville bag.
BALENCIAGA KNIFE BOOTS
8// Hailey wears straight legged jeans tucked into her Balenciaga knife boots.
9// A pair of side zip leggings perfectly show off her Knife boots. The oversized leather jacket creates balance in her outfit.
10// Hailey wears the same legging and boot as above, but this time with a black turtleneck and oversized sporty jacket. It’s refreshing to see a celebrity not only wearing the same thing twice, but also repeating an outfit combination.
BALENCIAGA LOGOMANIA
11// Love how Hailey pairs these shiny black patent leather leggings with an oversized Balenciaga logo hoodie.
12// Half convinced that Hailey is wearing pajam bottoms in this outfit, but somehow it works for her.
13// Hailey is a pro at creating balance with her style by pairing a sexy piece of clothes (here with a body-con mini dress) with something oversized (like the Balenciaga windbreaker).
14// Take notes if you ever wonder what to wear to the airport. Just make sure to remove your Balenciaga baseball cap before going through security.
BALENCIAGA SHARP BAG
15// A yellow Off-White crop top looks fabulous with a pair of lace up leather pants. Hailey is wearing her well loved Balenciaga knife boots and carries a black Balenciaga XS Sharp bag.
16// Personally, I love knowing that Hailey loves Balenciaga so much that she actually buys pieces in multiples. Here she carries a white XS Sharp bag with a black outfit, and white sneakers.
17// Wearing the same white XS Sharp bag as above with pink trousers, a denim Fear Of God jacket, and pink Balenciaga bow sandals.
BALENCIAGA TRIPLE S SNEAKERS
18// When in bored with a monochromatic outfit, just add a pop of colour via Triple S Sneakers like Hailey does.
19// An oversized Balenciaga t-shirt and plaid top hide her cut-offs making it look like she forgot her pants at home. This is the kind of outfit that’s perfect for running errands on the weekends.
20// Hailey Bieber is the entire reason I became obsessed with the Essentials (Fear of God) loungewear brand. A matching sweatsuit is the epitome of effortless and comfortable. Just add some bling and designer sneakers, and you’re set.

New Year's Eve Outfit Idea (for those who don't like dressing up)
Image via @blancamiro
I’m not always keen on getting dressed up for the holidays so I love the idea of wearing something simple but adding some elegance and sparkle via accessories. Here, Blanca Miró Scrimieri is wearing a black sweater, lace and feather hem skirt from Ganni, silver glitter Bonsai 15 bag from Simon Miller (currently on sale for over 60% off on Ssense right now), and silver glitter Isa mules from Amsterdam designer, Wandler.

VIDEO: CHANEL 2019 Holiday Collection MINI HAUL (Les Ornements De Chanel)
Hello and welcome back to another video! I’m so happy to be back with yet another CHANEL BEAUTY haul.
I told myself I wouldn’t buy the 2019 Holiday collection, but after seeing some of the products in person, I couldn’t resist. I always try to be very practical about what I buy as I already have quite the extensive CHANEL beauty collection, so I focused more on the items that I knew I would use most often.
Thanks for watching this video and I hope you enjoy it!
