    In my head, September always belongs to Summer rather than Autumn. None-the-less, it is a month of transition. The days become shorter again and the nights cooler. Even on the sunniest days, you can feel a hint of Fall in the air. As much as I adore Summer, there is something really exciting about the…

  • elegant pajamas

    I am guessing that half the people who saw me wear this look a while ago probably thought I stumbled out of bed and forgot to take my pajamas off. Even though that is not the case, I have to admit that the comfort level of this outfit was pretty close the that of actual…

  • la mercerie

    When it comes to the ultimate basics, there is not much that can compete with the classic combination of a white shirt and blue jeans. And while those two pieces are perfectly casual and made to be worn with your favorite sneakers, they also work in a slightly more dressed up look. Most of the…

    It is not often that an outfit works out in the exact way you put together in your head. And with exact, I mean 100% exact. About 3 months ago, I decided to brainstorm what to wear to my first ever wedding as maid of honor (there were two of us). Since I had been…

One of the reasons I named this blog Bikinis & Passports more than 7 years ago was the fact that I believe travels play…

  • OUTFIT: Realisation Par

    It took some realisation (pun intended), but I think I am officially at a point where I don’t get to say “I am not a dress kind of girl” anymore. For years I have claimed that I don’t really like or wear dresses and skirts, but when I look at the additions that have made…

  • mules & final clearance

    Without wanting to brag too much, I have to say that I am quite the expert when it comes to scoring the best. deals. ever. during the annual designer sales. Last night, I was telling my friends about my two best and most recent sale finds when they literally all chanted in union “But how…
