Polyvore Mini Editor Contest: Win $1000!

Polyvore is having a contest where bloggers and readers have a chance to will a $1000 Visa gift card!


Below, you'll see a Mini Editor, which is Polyvore's new widget. You, dear readers, can create an outfit from the favorites that I've picked, which counts toward my standing in the contest. If you want to be entered in the contest yourself, you can put the widget on your own blog and email Polyvore with some info about yourself, or you can use the widget on participating blogs (click here for more info). If you want to put the widget on your blog, the deadline to notify Polyvore is 11:59pm PDT (what the hell is that? Pacific time?) on September 7th, so you've got a little time to get yourself together. Good luck, and enjoy making outfits on here! :D

how did you come up with the name of your blog Tokyo is one of the many places that I would love to re-visit again and actually I was pretty bummed on my last night there that I had to leave such a amazing place.when where you introduced to fashion I really can't recall when was it, but I've always been obsessed with clothes, dressing up and looking good.

how do you describe your style I'm a mood dresser and I usually stick to neutral colors especially my all-time favorite, black. Black will always be the new black. what made you start a fashion blog I just wanted an avenue to document what I wear and capture some of my favorite outfits.

what do you think you bring to the fashion blog world Honestly, I'm really not sure if I bring (or can bring) anything to it. But I'm really flattered and thankful to those who follow Tears in Tokyo and even leave comments.how is your style different than everyone else: I won't say it's completely different than everyone else, but I love to mix and match pieces that are versatile, easy to wear… and play along with textures and accessories…

who is your inspiration I get my inspiration from everywhere. I love to browse lookbook.nu & some of my favorite blogs are leblogdebetty, thechicmuse and songofstyle. what impression do you want to leave on the people that visits your blog I hope they like what I post and such that they keep coming back to Tears in Tokyo for more.

who is your favorite designer I wouldn't say I have a particular favorite, but right now, I definitely like Alexander Wang. The simplicity of his designs and how he can make simple casual staple pieces look good…. well, I love to own every single piece in his collection(s)! what piece is a must have in your closet A basic black jersey dress that you can throw on days when you feel blah and in doubt.

Sunny, not funny

החופש חושף אותי למגוון חוויות שונות ומשונות אליהן לא היה לי פנאי במהלך השנה האחרונה: ביקור בסניף הדואר המקומי, החלפת צמיגים ברכב, המתנה ארוכה בתור של חברה סלולרית, סדר מקיף בארון והרשימה עוד ארוכה. מלבד המטלות שעלי לבצע (מחיקת מטלה מרשימת המטלות היא מאורע מספק מאד!) יש לי כעת קצת זמן לבשל, לנוח וחוץ מזה אני יכולה סוף סוף להקדיש זמן ראוי לידידי היקר, הלא הוא האינטרנט.

שיטוט אגבי בנט-א-פורטר (כיף בחופש, כבר אמרתי?) פתח בפני צהר לעולם אין סופי של פריטים שחורים ושקופים. אצתי רצתי לארוני (המסודר!) לחפש לי פריט מקביל ולחרדתי התחוור לי כי אין ברשותי ולו בגד אחד הולם העונה להגדרה הזו.
אם כך שמחתי מאוד למצוא באייץ' אנד אם את הגרסה הזולה והפשוטה לאותן חולצות נחשקות, היא אמנם סינטטית ועל כן לא ממש כיף לשוטט איתה בשמש, אך היא מעולה לשהייה במזגן. גיליתי שהיא משתלבת היטב עם פריטים שחורים אחרים, בעיקר כאלה בגימור אטום או מבריק, כדוגמת חצאית עור, תיק לק או שרשרת הפרספקס שבתמונה.

חצאית וחולצה - H&M

שרשרת - מהשוק באמסטרדם
נעליים - דריס ואן נוטן
משקפי שמש - take a look

shirt and skirt - H&M

shoes - Dries Van Noten
necklace -a market in Amsterdam
Sunglasses - a local shop

Thanks to my vacation I finally have the time to do the things I couldn't accomplish during the past year: visiting the local post office, replacing the tires, waiting in the line of a cellular company, organizing my closet and many more. Apart from the tasks I have to do (Deleting a task from my to do list is a truly satisfying thing!) I have some time to cook, rest and finally spend some quality time with my dear friend - the internet.

An occasional browsing on Net- A-Porter revealed a wonderful world of sheer black items. I went to check my closet in order to find my own version to the trend, Moments after I realized that I do not have a single item that falls into the "sheer black" category. I was very happy to discover this simple sheer blouse at H&M, It is synthetic and therefore not the perfect choice for a hot sunny day But definitely good for air-condition. I think it goes pretty well with other black garments, especially opaque or glossy ones, such as a leather skirt, shine finish bag, or the Perspex chain in the picture.
