Color and stripes

Stripes stripes stripes!

We love stripes! But we should keep some rules in mind when wearing them!

Vertical or horizontal?? Hmm…Well, we all know that horizontal stripes make us look wider than we actually are, so if you go horizontal make sure that you have a slim silhouette because it will surely add some centimeters to your hips!

Vertical stripes on the other hand, make us look taller. So if you are…..vertically challenged you can go for it!

And who said we can’t wear bright colors in winter?

La vie en...blue

Ok, you know that I am a vintage lover. I mentioned it in my blog many times. So this is one more of my vintage buys! I got this dress from an amazing vintage shop in Berlin.

The thing with vintage shops is that they have some amazing pieces but since they only have one of each piece, you must be very lucky to find one which is the right size for you. And the fact that almost none of the vintage shops have a changing room, you have to risk it! There were many times when I bought clothes without trying them on and most of them fit well luckily. But even if they don’t, I have my very beloved seamstress ( hello Ms. Argyroulla!) who transforms my clothes!

When I took her this dress it was huge and rather baggy but as usual she did her magic…

Fedora and leather skirt

Who hasn't loved the fedora hat? I'm sure you all have at least one version of it in your closet.
We first loved it as a beach hat in straw but then we kept it in the winter in a felt version.
Although it went in and out of fashion throughout history, fedora was and will be one of the most stylish hats ever!
If you don't have one, this winter you should definitely get it! You can never go wrong with a classic black or tanned one. Try it!
