Did anyone wonder what to save for this spring/summer? the new shoe trend this year are ...tadadada...mules!
yes, mules. they made their way back all from the 90's and look super chic and fresh. and who could be better to proove that than the queen of perfect effortless style elin kling? she rocked the new trend on fashion week last summer and since then these pictures of her and her perfect céline mules were featured on different style blogs and magazines.
ok, let's be honest, this is maybe not the comfiest trend and there are far more practical shoes out there. but for me it's one of the freshest and most exciting releases. and they look way more practical than the 90's versions. you remember those you had to hold with your toes to not loose them?
so now we just have to hope for a budget one, cause for now there are only alexander wangs, sergio rossis and célines out there, and not all of us have a 500 and up budget for shoes.
so zara, our favourite copycat number one, come on! this trend is made for you!
and again one of those outfits i would like to wear. It's a simple yet very sensual (look at that bra!) office look.
Just imagine how absolute gorgeous you could look like this in a bar, after work, on a date. forgetting the stress during the day, still smelling the heavy perfume that has developed this total different scent during the day, just more "you". the bra appears every now and then a little when you reach for your glass and your nails match the wine.
as you can see, i gave my fancy full scope. i love to do that while i compose outfits, imagine a scenario in which i would love to look like that.
as you can see, i'm a weirdo when it comes to fashion (well, not just on that, but more on that later...maybe^^).
feels like i was searching forever. at least, i think i did, and to be honest, i still do. well, no. thats not true. i found them, but they‘re not my budget right now. oh how i hate it...
when i went to my all time life saver zara (when it comes to fashion emergencies), to check some of their beautifull booties they have in store this season, i came across this boots. i already saw them online, but paid no attention. i was there for other shoes. but they just popped my eye and wouldn‘t let me go. and as i wasn‘t pleased with the quality of the shiny ones, i decided to get these. at least.
when it comes to shoes i‘ m very picky...my problem is i always fall for the designer high fashion shoes, and then i‘m not satisfied with something else, but still can‘t afford the luxury one.
i didn‘t buy any shoes last winter (except my nike free runs) cause i could‘t find any i liked. and this year i was searching the web like a crazy one, searching every shop in each city i came across. i started talking about shoes, dreaming about shoes. i wanted these acne boots. so bad. i had a concrete vision in my head, and a price limit set at 180 euro.
i was so happy when i found these asos boots that just look exactly like the acne ones (see here how similar they are), and counted the days until it would arrive. but when i tried them on, my little bubble burst. they were sooooo small and tight, at least 3 sizes to small. and as i‘m a tall girl with big feet, i had to send them back and say goodbye.
for now i‘m quite satisfied with my zara boots, though i already bought another pair at zaras on sale, which became my everyday shoe at the moment. quite funny...i was looking for boots quite like this for almost 2 years. and now when i have them i never wear them. can anyone understand thsi? i think its a womens thing - isnt‘t it?
(as i planned this post in december the boots are on sale now...if you hurry up you can get them on sale)
as i‘m not a huge beanie fan, this one is a style which is not 100% me...well, it actualy just doesn‘t feel like it is me. my main problem with beanies, or hats in general is that they distroy my hair. it is impossible to wear a beanie and afterwards look well put together, at least not when you have fine, thin hair as me.
it takes ages to get some volume in my golden fringes, but just one minute to destroy it. i do look like a fool all day, which made me come to the conclusion to rather freeze.
and on the other hand, while wearing it can look quite stupid with my thin, broken length, tangling and fading into nothing.
but this year i took the plunge, i bought a beanie. and yes, i wore it! ok, not that often yet, but who knows. the older i get the more i appreciate comfortable clothing, and being warm in winter is definetly a big thing. and as fashion is getting practical more and more every season, i think its a good time to start with it.
so, maybe you‘ll see me more often with a headgear - or not. i didn‘t make up my mind yet.
jeans, jeans shirt, coat, beanie, shades - h&m
boots, bag - zara
aren‘t we all a sucker for red nails? come on, we all do love this nail style, it‘s just as classic as a red lip and can go with everything.
sure, we all do have our favourite shades and we all wear it different. but what‘s for sure is that this is a classic. you can‘t go wrong with it - never.
it‘s never too polished nether too casual. you can dress up or down. do a natural look or all smokey eyes with matching red lips.
i‘ve never been a fan of the bright red nail, don‘t know why, but i‘m attracted to the darker shades with a pinkish or plumish shade. and every year around december/january it draws me back to this staple and proved style. all summer i‘m quite true to my essie nude mademoiselle, but as it gets darker outside, my nails go darker too.
there are so many shades, budget or luxery, theres a shade for everyone. and i think every woman should at least own one perfect red nailpolish.
but ladies, don‘t forget the base coat - nobody wants yellow nails (yiekkh).
which is your favourite? any tips for me?
