Mixed prints

It shows up in different catwalk shows: Mixed-printed looks. Whether it's created by different floral prints, tribal prints, or by  dissimilar other patterns, a mixed-printed outfit looks so interesting when it's well-styled. I went for a more subtle version of the trend to wear to university yesterday: I used just two items with two different prints. Even though the prints and the colors of the items are dissimilar, I believe that they work together very well. Hope you like it too!

Breaking the rules

I've always been the type of child that's calling "I want to move abroad when I grow up!". I guess it's one of my biggest dreams to have minimized rainfall all over the time. Hence, I thought it was the perfect winter day last Sunday. We went to a little beach, and all I could do was smiling. The cold was offset by the sun, people were walking their dogs everywhere in the park around this beach, and the sky was clear and bright blue. I wore an outfit that's characterized by the fact it breaks an important rule of fashion (for so far there are any rules in the art of fashion): the use of burgundy and red in one and the same look. I doubted about it briefly, but then I knew for sure: I don't follow certain fashion rules. I think the best thing about dressing yourself is the fact everything is possible. You can create anything exactly like you want it to be, so that the look perfectly reflects your personality. No rules can make me stop from wearing the things I like: fashion is about creativity, so I break the rules!

All knitted

My mother's oversized cardigan is one of the warmest cardigans I've ever worn. I lend it more often, even though it's terrible to wear underneath a coat because of it's sleeves. This weekend, I decided to combine it with only knitted items (exept the leather bag and the leather boots), like the cable knit tights, the pearl top, and the grey knitted shorts. I really like the youthful look of the outfit. For some reason, I think it matches my recent desire to watch Disney movies and to visit Disney World in Paris so well! ;-)

American charm

I've never been in The United States before but going there is one of the things standing on top of my "I want to do list". My desire to go there is probably one of the reasons why my new sweater attracts me that much. I wore it in combination with my DIY clutch and black lace shorts (the nonchalant side of the look) and my red coat (the elegant side of the look) yesterday. Though it's storming right now, the sun shone yesterday and while driving along the airport I suddenly got tremendous sense in summer. I've got a feeling it will be the best summer EVER! But let it be a dry, cold winter right now, because I just bought myself a new Tommy Hilfiger winter coat and I can't wait to wear it as much as possible (I'll show it to you tomorrow).

I'm a rockstar (or a vampire)

I was finally able to watch Twilight Breaking Dawn part one in cinema yesterday evening. I totally adored the movie (as expected) and can't wait to see the last part of the saga. What did I wear? I wore red pants, a hairy cardigan, a white printed t-shirt, my beloved ankle boots, and a quilted chain bag. Altogether it was a very comfortable outfit, but I truly felt like a rockstar haha.

Blue monsters

It was the perfect day today. I passed my last exam of this year yesterday, and I decided to celebrate it with an early Friday morning shopping session. I bought myself such nice things and I truly feel euphoric when looking at my acquisitions. It was the first time I took my new blue monsters outside. I think they are fantastic, and I love the fact they are sooooo eyecatching because of their amazing shade of blue. The bag is from the vintage section of Shoppalu, and it's not the only item of the outfit that's aged: I found the navy turtleneck yesterday when I restructured my closet. I haven't worn it for years but I think it's time to wear it again now. Oh, and what do you think of the scarf (available here)? It's a combination of different colors (the color of the bag, the shoes, the socks, and the top among others) and in my opinion, it's a must have to survive the winter cold!
