the daily dani: Blogger Feature: Beatrice of Sacosha

Please welcome miss Beatrice Balaj of Sacosha to The Daily Dani! I absolutely love her blog - I ooh and ahh at basically every piece she owns, and at every outfit she puts together!

3 words to describe your personal style?

I would describe my style as edgy, chic, suave. I tend to dress simple and add a lot of accessories to add more detail to my outfits and make it look interesting.

What would you consider the 5 essential items to a fashionable wardrobe?

First, I would like to add hats or a fedora.. Adding a hat to a simple look can really make an outfit. You might want to try it and you will see how much character a fedora or simple floppy hat will add to an outfit.

A second essential would be a cardigan or leather jacket. Sometimes when I am running late to an appointment, a class meeting, or even coffee with a friend I always add a cardigan or jacket to a dress and it doesn't look so boring anymore.

Third would be ripped jeans. I am big on ripped jeans. In fact, I'm obsessed with them! I can wear ripped jeans with a simple top and I get so many compliments. It just looks much better than plain denim jeans.

Fourth is a basic white t-shirt. If you haven't noticed, many outfits on my blog consist of a plain gray, white, or black tee. They are comfy and you can wear it with so many objects, such as: a skirt, jeans, or leggings. Plus, you can always dress up a t-shirt or dress it down ;).

The fifth essential are accessories. I strongly believe that accessories make the outfit. You just need a great statement piece and you are set! I use accessories such as bracelets, watches, and necklaces. Sometimes I'll drop the necklace and add earrings; depending on what I'm wearing.

What is your favorite/most versatile accessory?

My favorite accessory in my closet would be my gold origami necklace. I wore it too many times when I first purchased it but I now save it for special occasions. I always get compliments when I wear it and it is such a statement piece. I adore it.

My most versatile accessory would be my Hermes belt. I love it! I purchased the orange and camel reversible calfskin belt and I wear it with most of my pants.

What are your favorite winter trends?

One of my favorite winter trends would be knitwear. I have been wearing so many knits in my recent posts. They are so comfortable, warm, and stylish. I can easily wear knitwear with my pencil skirts, jeans, or even over my dresses.

Another favorite trend would be fur coats. I haven't purchased one yet, but I plan on purchasing one from ZARA. I just love the trend because it makes everything standout.

A choker would also be a chic accessory that I adore. I love the gold choker that H&M currently has in stores. I haven't done an outfit post with a choker yet, but I need to do one pronto because I have been dying to do an outfit post with a choker.

Where do you see fashion evolving in the next few years? Trends? Styles?

In a few years I would see the fashion industry evolving into a global epidemic widespread. With marketing so advanced and successful, fashion has become more than just clothing wear. It is marketed as something more than just a company, it is advertised as a network; something that draws a specific group together. It is also something that defines individuals and the lifestyle they live. I would see future trends going towards darker shades, with more leather and gothic-like accents. I like the classy and elegant look, but from what it looks like, to me, I see the fashion industry modernizing masculine style for feminine wear. With that said, there are a lot of tuxedos that are also made into sexy feminine wear. This trend, I believe, gives women confidence and portrays females as powerful and independent. I cannot wait to see what the future fashion industry has to offer.

I feel most myself when I’m wearing:

I love to wear a lot of layers and accessories, but believe it or not, I feel most myself when I wear something simple. My daily wear consists of denim jeans, flats, and a flowy shirt with a blazer or cardigan. That is basically what I wear on a daily basis, depending on the weather. I'll also add a piece of gold necklace or my Michael Kors watch and I am set to go out and about. When I do an outfit posts with so many accessories I cannot wait to go home and take off all my bracelets and heavy earrings. I would admit that it is the best feeling ever! ;)
