ALL DENIM EVERYTHING

Hello everyone,

Today I thought I should spread for a bit around some of my tips on how to be very original and look good at the same time. This outfit represents something very casual but cool. You may not believe but some of those pieces were actually very cheap , well , that’s because they’re vintage ( and great ) . If you take the right time to look for them in a “CarBoot Sale” you’ll be surprised how many cool stuff you’ll find. For example, the jeans and the vest were bought from a place like that. I added a bit of a “Flower power” effect to the vest as you can see to make it look even more fresh and fun. Anyone can do that ( you too ) :)…

Of course you have to be very careful on how you accesorize the old stuff but they work very well with almost anything that you think it fits and makes the outfit go round!

Oh yes… let’s talk about denim! Who doesn’t love it?! It has always been an everyday symbol for style, it’s comfortable and it looks good!

This what YSL once said..

I have often said that I wish I had invented blue jeans: the most spectacular, the most practical, the most relaxed and nonchalant. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity – all I hope for in my clothes.

Yves Saint Laurent

Well he didn’t..

Jacob Davis did in 1871 ( yes, looong time ago). Cheers to Jacob!

I hope you all find this post helpful. Always feel free to explore your style , dare to combine!

When Mary Quant meets Manoush

Hey everyone,

Today’s post is focused on fashion houses through the ages and its miracles. Combining old and brand new pieces can really do a good impression. I can tell. If I shall say it in style…it’s all about Mary Quant. Two months ago I went to England and yes, I ve found Englands treasures. My umbrella today…screams Mary Quant(found it in an Antique shop).

Mary Quant was a very famous fashion designer ages ago, she helped out put London on the fashion map and it continued to be like that till now. She was a very talented British designer, she also launched the so called ‘miniskirt’. The 60’s wouldn t have been the same in the fashion industry without her. I am very thrriled to own an original Mary Quant umbrella and get to wear it! Accesories really do matter a lot in an outfit.

I know, the famous piece in this outfit is the skirt ( we all love Manoush and the way it captures the eye with its amazing designes) but I do view it differently. Everything we see is so much more, a person who sees only fashion in fashion is a fool.

Christian Dior once said:

“At the risk of being thought soulless and without denying my interest in architecture and interior decoration, I must admit that clothes are my whole life.”

Have a BIUtiful almost weekend ever,
