Sometimes you're just lucky to go around with the old pieces in the closet - ready to wear - for a new season.

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.

Today I played it safe, adding my black blazer. … [Read more...] about Finally A Touch Of Color

This is even as my perception is that jeans are considered as more accepted in the business environment nowadays. Do I have to add that the jeans should be dark, and absolutely not a distressed version... One easy classic way of styling is just combining the jeans with a black turtleneck and a black blazer. Classic, but more relaxed … [Read more...] about An Office Version Of Jeans
