Hello Darlings,

Women are striving to have it all - the ideal job, family, body, and fashion. But at what cost? No sleep, stress, depression? That is the question for you to answer. As for me, trying to balance work, school, and some sort of social life comes at a cost - for me mostly stress that leads to panics.

If an average person has trouble dealing with all the stress in their lives, I wonder how do people the famous people in the fashion world handle stress? Well….. TAKE A LOOK at this video called Stress in Fashion and featuring the Kaiser of fashion himself, Karl Lagerfeld.

Stress Therapy

Well as my stress levels keep increasing, I continue finding comfort in retail therapy. This time I actually went to the mall instead of just clicking my way through a website, where I bought this Ralph Lauren blazer with school boy styling complete with a crest.

I am wearing:
Talula Wool Blazer
H&M Plaid Cotton Shirt
J -brand
Michael Kors Platforms
A.V. Max Gold Studded Cuff
Gap Leather Purse

On another note, I had an accident rock climbing. Nothing major, but no skirts or dresses for me until the bruises heal :( Lesson learned to be more careful next time.

I wish you all a Happy Monday!!!!

With Love…
Marta

    the look….me luvs it…and are you going to hate me if I run out to H&M and get that EXACT plaid shirt?! don't think plaid has ever looked that sexy….lastly…I will admit: I too find comfort in retail therapy (online shopping is a bad addiction) and i HATE admitting it (my bf thinks I need therapy or some sort of intervention…haha) :P

    I missed so many new posts :(
    First of all, wish you luck on all your exams but I am sure you will ace them. Stress can be a hard thing to manage but I like to think that it usually brings the best out of people.
    And, hellooooo, gorgeous to the blazer. Preppy is very suitable for college, think of all the possibilities :)

    Hope you had a great weekend,
    xoxo
