Motherhood: All love begins and ends there.

– Robert Browning

Becoming a mother to my son Kingston was by far the best thing that has happened to me. He has given me and my husband so much joy. Our son was definitely a ‘wanted’ child. We planned to have a baby, and now our beloved baby boy is already 4 years old.

And now, ever since I started blogging full-time, I’m able to spend more time with Kingston. He’s growing up so fast – I’m well aware that one day my house will be quiet, my son will be grown, and I will be longing for the chaos. Times truly flies especially when you’re a working mother.

I once heard that if “you’re living in the same house as a baby, time moves slowly” but this certainly wasn’t the case for me. After my maternity leave I went back to work and time was anything but slow. I wanted to push the “pause” button so many times, and this my friends, is the real reason why I wanted to pursue blogging full-time. Not for fame, ego, etc. I wanted to work from home so, I can be with my son. As simple as that. Before I had a full-time corporate job, and my son had to go to a nanny. Even though we had the best nanny any parent could wish for it was very hard on me. There were times were I secretly cried at work because I missed my son.

I feel incredibly blessed to be Kingston’s mother. He’s my soul and heart. Motherhood truly is a gift from above. I’ve learned a lot these last four years but learning the true meaning of unconditional love was probably the most precious lesson I’ve learned and experienced. My love for Kingston has no beginning and no end. Always.

Greetings from Aruba! My family and I are having a wonderful time in the Caribbean, and I am excited to announce that I have a few wonderful projects lined up while I’m here. So, stay tuned for more!

Today I’m featuring a head-to-toe look from A’GACI. I focused on styling this look to create a Halloween costume…can you guess what I’m trying to be?

Femme Fatale.

I think the color burgundy is perfect to be a “seductive” woman, and what’s more “femme” than these lace-up heels? I seriously love them! I’ve been looking for lace-up heels for the longest time, and I’m just so glad that I finally found a pair at A’GACI. What are your plans for Halloween? Any outfit ideas?! Let me know by commenting below, and as always, thanks so much for visiting!

PS: Don’t for get to follow me on Instagram and Snapchat (@WhatWouldVWear) for more Aruba adventures.

Much love.

I’m excited to share a few looks from Fabrizio Gianni throughout the week, a brand that is made in the USA, and made in Los Angeles. FABRIZIO GIANNI® believes in quality, craftsmanship and enduring style curated with a selection of the most elegant, sophisticated hand picked fabrics imported all the way from Europe.

Being born, and partly raised in Europe, I couldn’t help but jump at the opportunity to collaborate with a brand that not only handpicks its fabrics from Europe but also believes in craftsmanship and quality. Many of you may not know this, but I also have a Bachelors of Fine Arts Degree in Fashion Design. I used to design and make my own clothing, until I discovered a greater love for jewelry making.

Today, I’m featuring an olive colored safari pant which is designed with a comfortable high rise and straight leg for an easy flattering fit, and paired it with a fringe tank. Can you tell that I’m ready for fall?! I’m clearly leaning towards fall colors and styles. How about you?!

As always, thanks much for reading & have a fabulous Wednesday!

Much love.

When I first got my hands on the black distressed jeans from Choies, I loved them so much, that I knew that I needed a white pair as well. There seems to be an influx of super sliced white distressed jeans, as almost every brand has their own version. A sexy, edgy, yet stylish distressed jean makes any outfit into a statement. I’ve paired my new white pair with a fun, tropical dawn off the shoulder top from A’GACI which is just perfect for the our last remaining weeks of summer.

Speaking of summer: We are fast approaching fall, and I’m already looking for outfit ideas that are totally stylish yet highly comfortable, and I cannot help but get back to my all time staple, jeans. I think distressed jeans are still perfect for fall – I mean it really can’t get better wearing a cozy sweater and distressed jeans, don’t you agree?!

As always, thanks much for stopping by & have a lovely Monday!

Much love.

Trend Alert: Suede Fringe

Here’s a fall trend fall alert for y’all: Suede Fringe!

I’m swooning over this 70s boho-chic vibe, how about you?! This top is so soft (it’s not just your plain ol’ borderline cowboy texture!) and it’s extremely versatile as well. It goes with any outfit, making the retro look extremely sophisticated while standing on its own in head-to-toe understated glamour.

This summer, I scored a beautiful leather fringe skirt (see post HERE), and ever since I’ve been obsessed with fringes. It’s so eye-catching everywhere you go, right? From suede fringe tops and skirts, one thing is clear: They are a must for this upcoming fall season.

I’ve paired my suede fringe halter top with black trousers, and accessorized it with my new V Wear Collection bracelets – which by the way – were such a success that I have decided to come out with new collection soon. Stay tuned.

But now, you tell me:

What is your fall trend you’re already obsessing over?! Would love to hear from you! Perhaps I can grab some of your ideas as well! Let’s share!

 As always, thanks much for reading & have great weekend!

Much love.
