Puffy Pants
New pants for the season with a completely new style. Slightly puffy but with a very good fit at the waist and over the hips. Love this season's complete mix and match of all types of pants - When I browse stores it's as though you can't go wrong in pants style - wide legged, flared, skinny, puffy, cropped or long - anything goes. Kaki colored that fits with plenty of my existing jackets. This time I paired it with my Chanel style jacket from Gerard Darel. Pants are from an Italian brand called … [Read more...] about Puffy Pants
Reinventing the Suede Skirt With a Nude Knit
Picking up a lot of trends for the winter by just adding one more piece, a nude knit from COS. Winter white (well ok, neutral...), monochrome, suede and midi-skirt just by combining my old vintage skirt with a ribbed knit. Love when I find these types of solutions! The knit is a ribbed, merino wool top with slightly long arms. COS offer such a knit for a fraction of the price if compared to the knits I checked out at Acne with the samt styles. Skirt also seen here and here. Ankle boots - Acne … [Read more...] about Reinventing the Suede Skirt With a Nude Knit
Reinventing the Black Blazer With a Belt
Pulling another season out of my black blazer that now dates back 5 years. I'm on the lookout for a new version but haven't really stumbled on anything I love yet. For the choice of the black blazer I'm really picky, I often wear them to pieces and hope for them to last for as long as possible so I like to see it as an investment in good quality and love when it's combined with a bit of quirkiness and style. For this season I style my old one from Rag & Bone with a belt! Love the feminine feel of the … [Read more...] about Reinventing the Black Blazer With a Belt
A Theme For The Week – Reinventing Old Pieces
With a couple of new pieces I'm reinventing my old closet finds. Starting in the weekend with my classic trenchcoat from Burberry. Definitely vintage as it's my mom's from the 70ties. This season's update is just adding a new scarf in light wool in brown with hues of blue, green, and metallic. How about you, do you have any old pieces in your closet that could be reinvented? Happy Weekend! … [Read more...] about A Theme For The Week – Reinventing Old Pieces
Classic Well-Dressed Plaid Blazer
Some trends are just too good to be true! For me a statement piece as a plaid blazer is an opportunity that I can't miss! This is probably a jacket I will wear until it shreds... Slightly longer silhouette and cut, plaud in black and grey, in excellent wool fabric, from Swedish brand Tiger = Love! As I was scouting for my pick I opted out on the ones with double-breasted cuts, I just couldn't find one that didn't make me look like SpongeBob Squarepants i e no waistline... Blazer - Tiger Pants, old - … [Read more...] about Classic Well-Dressed Plaid Blazer
