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!

Mysticism

Wow, I almost can't believe I wore this look four days ago. Time flies! Recently, I totally love styling outfits consistent with my ideas about the time of the year. That's why you see lots of sequins, golden items, and sparkles on the blog lately. This is no different this time, but I added another element appropriate to the holidays to the look: mysticism. In my opinion, the end of the year is mostly marked by cosiness and fun. However, it's also a time full of mysticism. And let it be I think I own a pair of tights that are the embodiment of mysticism: My Henry Holland tights! They give some exposure, but not to much; They are mysterious black, but there's also a gold detail on them; And last but not least.. They are perfect in combination with my new dress from Shoppalu. It's from their vintage section and it's officially a top, but it's big enough for me to wear it as a dress (which is a huge yaaaay! because I think it's even better as a dress).

Glitter and glamour

Woaa, I think I'm one of the few bloggers who doesn't wear vintage that much. Actually, it was the first time I wore vintage last Sunday. I got a package with amazing items from Shoppalu, and I couldn't wait to try the first item for a special visit I scheduled on the last day of the week. When I write 'the first item' I'm referring to the grey top. I really like the fact it's decorated with pearls, which makes the top very unique (I think uniqueness is one of the advantages of vintage clothing). It's also perfect in combination with the black cardigan I wore before in my latest outfitpost. Both the cardi ánd the skirt are from the party collection of Outfitters Nation.

What do you think?

A Long Line of Presentation

I ran into Rose near central park this past weekend.She shared some of the knowledge that she has acquired over the past 79 years. Rose told me, " There was always a long line of presentation. Not one item should outdo another. The pieces should compliment one another, to create one complete picture. This is how it used to be,there was an elegance before. We were working towards the face, everything was meant to flatter the face."

When I asked her why she wears gloves, she simply responded," To protect my hands."
