Style mix: Sophisticated | Classic | Rustic | My Paradissi

This has got to be one of my favorite style combinations until now. Mixing two almost contradicting styles, the elegant, delicate and exquisite classic with the unrefined, rough and real rustic can only create wonders. Like porcelain and bare stone, lace and sandals, figs and goat cheese. Things are kept neutral and simple so as the true beauty to be the actual object of admiration, emerging from the object in a carefree and effortless way. Putting it down on numbers this mix equals 30% sophisticated, 30% classic, 25% rustic and 15% natural style.
