Neutrals, layers; you have probably seen me do this before but I can’t help it. I think it looks amazing and combining neutrals is the only way to create a complete monochromatic look during summer (unless you’re wearing a maxi skirt or dress.) . . .
I already did this 😉 . . .
Today I wanted a simple look so I just went with jeans and a white top. I bought these jeans second hand a few days ago and I love them. The white top from Zara is such a nice basic with the cut out details at the shoulders keeping this look from looking to simple. I added two gold chokers also bought second hand and my lion stud earrings from Romwe. Since it’s still a bit on the colder side outside I chose my black platform booties from H&M to complete the look. . . .
During fashion week last year I saw photos from one of the shows (I don’t remember which I’m afraid) where they had added a metal circle like mine on to pants; some where empty and others had something hanging from them (I think they were coats or jackets.) I am surprised that this never became a trend because first of all it’s a really cool detail and second it’s super smart. Say you want to take off your lightweight jacket when walking around in a mall, hang it on the metal circle (add it to the back of your jeans or belt if it’s annoying to have in the front.) If you’re tired of carrying a bag with keys, card and phone, find or make a small bag and hang it on to the metal circle. I could go on and on but I think I have written enough already. (wait I just realized that those responsible for a large amount of keys actually have similar metal circles on their belt.. I think it’s time to steal their idea) . . .
The first thing I saw when I woke up this morning was the blue sky with only a few clouds (not very clearly though because this was before I put in my contact lenses..) and I was so happy. Getting out of bed seemed so much easier although I was very comfortable in my bed. The sun is shining through the window as I’m writing this and I’m so happy that spring is just around corner. . . .
It’s only Tuesday and I’m already exhausted, I could really use a vacation right now but at least spring is closing in. When I think of spring I think of colors but also neutrals; like I’m wearing today. I have always loved neutral colors because they always look so good. Even though you can wear colors like these during the whole year (you can with any color of course, but I guess we all have an idea of when colors should be worn) it looks so fresh during spring paired up with other neutrals or with white. . . .
