Happy Wednesday Darlings, here are a few of my favourite things from Zara. I’m totally in love with this fuchsia pink suit, talk about making a statement when you walk into a room. Yes, all eyes will be on you!
Loving this double-breasted waistcoat, I love the extended cut of the armhole, there’s so much you could do with this; dress it up or down, a classic go to item.
Looking for that easy to wear, comfy weekend dress? well here it is! Also comes in Coral and Makeup (nude). As I’ve said before, yellow truly is the colour of the season!
Cocktails anyone? Be the belle of cocktail hour in this little yellow number.
Add a pair of silver strappy shoes to any of these ensembles, a must have in any Stylista’s wardrobe.
all items available now, at Zara
Well we’re nearly half way to the weekend, I hope you’re having an amazing week so far. We’re supposed to hit 75 degrees in DC today, so I’m going to try to enjoy the sunshine, while I can, because who knows when it will disappear again!
Be Creative, Be Inspired, Be Amazing!
♥ Shine Brightly ♥

Hello Darlings! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend as I did. You’ll be happy to know that the Maylana’s Closet Blog Shop is finally open! Right now the bangles shown above from my “Touch of India Collection” are available for purchase; there are also a pair of exquisite earrings {seen in 3rd pic below, 5 sets available) also for purchase. There will be more eclectic and beautiful items coming to the Blog Shop very soon. Click on the link above, and let me know what you think. Please bear in mind, it’s still a work in progress.
Part of my weekend was spent pampering myself, so I decided to give myself a pedicure. Color used was Estee Lauder Béte Noire ,{dark purple} with Sally Hansen Diamond Flash Top coat. {Sandals are by Zara, circa 2009} Ladies, pampering yourselves on a regular basis, is conducive to your well-being, it’s a must!♥
I plan to invest in a tripod very soon, so that I can start taking full length self portraits with my Canon T3i; I realize fully now, that as a blogger, a tripod is your best friend! In the meantime my trusty iPhone is going to have to do. Here’s a peek of what I’m wearing today.
On Saturday I decided to represent my 1st adopted home, New York!!! It was where I lived, my first 15 years in the U.S. I truly miss living there, there is nothing else like NYC! {click on the link, to hear my favourite New York song}. So with a pair of scissors, I slashed the neck of this tee-shirt, and I was on my way; having my own personal New York minute. I hope to take a trip there soon, great blogging material there.
I did not get a chance to participate in the Cherry Blossom Festival on Saturday {I found 1000 other things I needed to do}, but I’m still hoping to bring you some gorgeous photos at a later date.
To round things out, I found this quote on Pinterest and simply love it…
Have yourselves the most fabulous Monday; make sure that YOU make it Amazing!

On Sunday, the most amazing afro caught my eye, and that’s how I met the most unique and extraordinary woman by the name of Makkah, who is the owner of Revolution Vintage in Baltimore.
As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, I was in Baltimore, and happened to stumble upon this charming little boutique. While there, Makkah and I struck up a lovely conversation, whereby, I purchased what I thought was one of the most beautiful vintage coats. Makkah offered me the most wonderful deal, once I told her I was a blogger, which I could not pass up, so wonderful in fact, I dare not tell you how much!
This slideshow requires JavaScript.
The best way to describe Makkah’s boutique, is it’s a delightful bazaar of unusual and eclectic finds; like a Magpies’ nest of colourful and shiny things, you don’t know what you should look at first. A hodge podge mix of vintage dresses, coats and scarves hung on coat racks and laid across old fashion sofas, fabulous accessories spilled on a dresser for good measure. As you can see, Makkah herself is a stunning vision of colours, and creativity, exuding the most artistic of auras. I found her when the market was nearly closing, because I’m sure I could have spent half the day with her if I had found her earlier.
You can find the lovely Makkah on Instagram @revolutionvintage, where she has some of the most amazing photos, or if you’re in the area, visit her boutique at the Patapsco Indoor Flea Market in Baltimore. It’s so worth it!

Yesterday, I posted a couple of pieces, I found at my favourite vintage store; I forgot to post this gorgeous black slip and peach coloured ballerina style nightgown, that I thought you’d love to see. I’m going to try the peach gown with a knee-length tank dress, belt it and maybe an additional vintage petticoat underneath to see how that works. I’ll let you know 🙂
A young lady I met, while shopping, picked up these beauties for $5!!
It’s another gorgeous day, a little chilly, but I’ll take it, because the sun is shining very brightly!

Well today is the official first day of spring. With temperatures in the high 40’s low 50’s (plus overnight frost) it certainly does not feel like it. The most important thing is, it’s officially here, which means we have lovely warm weather and blue skies to look forward to.
With thoughts of spring in the air, I thought this lovely floral dress by Haute Hippie at PiperLime.com was a good representation of the weather to come. It’s a little on the expensive side at $565! but I’m sure you can find something very similar at H&M, Zara or any of the other major chain stores. If I find an alternative, I’ll feature it in a future post. Click on the dress or the link to be taken to the PiperLime website.
Wishing you a Marvelous and Amazing Wednesday!

While going through my Instagram feed, I discovered the lovely boutique Shoxie! When I saw this wrap maxi dress I was completely bowled over. At $125.00, I think it’s a steal in order to look gorgeous, for the upcoming summer affairs, where you want to look simple, yet elegant, and very nicely put together, without too much fuss. I’ve got my eye on either of the black and white striped dresses myself, or maybe the coral… decisions, decisions.
How would I wear? Sky high wedges and a neon clutch (post coming soon); topped off with my Tom Ford red lipstick in Cherry Lush, and I’m good to go 🙂
Make your way to their lovely online boutique here or click on the dresses above to be taken right to them!

It’s Sunday, and its been a really good day both professionally and personally. I’ve accomplished quite a lot today! I hope your Sunday has been as wonderful as mine. I’ve managed to complete 4 of my infamous crochet flower hats, made some sales, taken new photos for my Etsy store; and with my sister, we’ve managed to dream up even more fabulous ideas for our business. It’s great when you have a business partner, who’s on the same page as you, and then constantly brings added fabulousness and creativity every time! Love you SIS!
The hat above {originally called the Penelope hat}, is a staple of the Maylana’s Closet collection. The quote above, is quite fitting, because creating these hats is definitely one of the things my future self, will thank me for! In a future post I’ll tell you how the Maylana’s Closet crochet hats got started, it’s a story near and dear to me… Stay tuned!! If you’d like more information regarding hats from the Maylana’s Closet Collection please email me at lana@maylana.com
Here’s a glimpse of a beautiful item that’s going to hit the Etsy store this week, it’s GORGEOUS!!
Wishing you a Glorious, Inspiring and Amazing week!
