Pink and green, white and blue for me means spring

Spring is an opportunity to breathe new life into your wardrobe, and one easy and exciting way to do that is using color. There are some particular colors, that mean spring to me – green like the sprouting new leaves and the fresh grass, pink and white like the blossoming trees, bushes and flowers, and light blue like the wonderful spring sky with the shining sun.

It was in this line of thoughts that I made this simple spring Zara outfit – I matched a cool logo pink sweatshirt with high-waisted jeans, a neon green short sleeveless jacket, neon sneakers and a cute pink bag – all from Zara, in a fashionway.

Head to toe Colorful

The spring 2022 trends will give us some of the boldest colors yet – from hot pink and orange neon green to sky blue. When it comes to being colorful, you’re going to see outfits in head-to-toe colors this spring. That doesn’t mean that an outfit has to be of several different colors – it could also be in shades of pink, white, green, or all pastels. Colorful or monochrome – either way the coming spring/summer season is not going to be boring.

In line with that, the winter coming to an end I tried to add some colors to my wardrobe and made this outfit, matching pink, orange, green and sky blue. I went for an orange Zara sweater, a pink jacket, blue Zara jeans, a green Zara bag and beret, lovely MONKI socks and Love Moschino sneakers.

Checkerboard print

Since the start of the Corona pandemic in 2020 we have seen so many aspects of our lives change – our day to day life, our ability to see friends and family and how we work. And of course, the lockdowns have changed fashion from how we see it to how we buy it. Me for instance – I started favouring the more comfortable every day clothes and buying many things online thus missing the enjoyment of the the real shopping activity. Somehow life started looking like a black & white photo – lacking variety… Or like chess, where we have to do only certain moves. In that line of thought, the checkerboard print, which is very trendy and almost everywhere now, fits perfectly to that fashion and I like it. I found these checkerboard wide leg relaxed fit jeans and a fluffy Jacket by MONKI and matched them with cream Bershka boots and a small Pimki bag, in a fashionway.

Rainbow bag

Pink, violet, baby blue, pale yellow – all my favorite colors for the summer in one bag. I am totally in love with this bag because it makes my look different and eye catching . The baby blue color goes well with my blue summer shoes and this Bershka holed cardigan. And because the pale/pastel yellow matches perfectly with the blue, I chose this sweet Bershka top. Neutral pale colors look nice when paired together with others like grey, white, black and baby blue. To make the outfit in a comfy summer look I grabbed a pair of balloon jeans.

So, choosing the accessories is a challenge, but if chosen well, they add great taste to your outfit. They are just like spice in a dish that starts out with the standard ingredients – they just try to bring the best out of it and give you the freedom to look good in every formal or casual occasion.

A stylish way to wear white jeans

The summer season lies ahead and next to the short pants, a nice light pair of long jeans is always needed. And why not a nice pair of crisp white jeans. Actually, I think you can wear white jeans all year long! They just so happen to go with spring/summer season a little bit more.

For today’s look, I wanted to put together white jeans and a nice shirt, so I paired the jeans with one of my favorite shirts in mint from Zara. The white jeans themselves are a straight leg high rise from Liu Jo – their silhouette allows them to be either casual or dressy, depending how you style your outfit around them.

I topped my look with a little Louis Vuitton bag, heeled shoes and also my favorite Louis Vuitton sunglasses.

Classic MOM fit jeans with cracks

This year you can see a lot of jeans trends. My „feel good“ Jeans are in MOM cut and with cracks/holes. I found this classic MOM fit hi-rise pair of jeans by Zara and matched them with a Zara skin color body and a white H&M blazer. I topped the outfit with this cute white Zara pleated bag and shoes and added an accent with a sweet Pandora Mickey necklace.

Invest in black and white

These spring/summer days, when all the shops and websites offer you a palette of sweet, candy colors, we think that our wardrobe will be the most colorful this season. Nevertheless, don’t forget that every now and then, black and white remains a classic and it always works well when you make your choice in the right cuts.

So, when in doubt, wear black and white – a black-white fashion trend is not really a trend. On the contrary – this combination always looks good and is eternal – so it’s worth to invest in, no matter if the pieces are basic or with prints. Today I decided to show you both – a basic black MONKI jeans dress with a black and white Michael Kors printed blazer. Although the weather looks already sunny and warm now, a thin blazer always comes in handy. And such a basic jeans dress is also always useful – you can wear it with or without a T-Shirt and also with leggings when the days are cold – I just love such multifunctional pieces. The shoes I choose are also multifunctional and for all seasons, with matching black and white MK print. The whole outfit I topped with a black Tally Weijl belly bag.

All-in-white

In the spring/summer season the all-white looks are always a good choice, no matter the occasion. The monochrome outfits work well for those of us who are not that fancy of colors. But not only for them – sometimes it’s ok to wear something different. The lighter tones work great in summer – the bright white feels airy and one does not need to worry what  to combine it with.

An all-in-white look works best when made out of various materials – they make the same tone have a very distinct appearance and their texture adds depth to the whole look.

In my look today I combine a long cotton Space shirt from Top Shop with an embroidered Zara white shirt and white skinny regular waist angle length H&M denim jeans. Matched together with cream-white Bershka summer shoes they create a great harmonic ensemble.

As you can see, we made the photo shooting of this outfit in Dubai – the fairy white combination in white works great for the conditions there and their somewhat stricter dress codes.

Jeans shirt with slouchy high waist jeans

Do you have the feeling that in these crazy Corona times we are less and less motivated to dress up well enough? Our old lifestyle has gone and with it the desire to look good. The few times when we do go out, it is for shopping (as much as shops are open right now), or maybe for a small walk, and then we just put on whatever we find quick with the idea that there is anyway no-one that will see us, moreover with a mask. Still, we should take care of our looks, at least because it gives us some so-needed self-confidence.

Here’s one comfortable look from me today. If you are wondering how to combine a jeans shirt in winter – it’s easy – a good sweater on top and jeans for the bottom match perfectly. A classic sweater with collar look. The one I have on, is a Pimkie cream cable sweater with shoulder details. As for the jeans I chose these trendy slouchy high waist ones also from Pimkie, that being so unorthodox are still very comfortable. The whole outfit I topped with a short beige MONKI jacket, brown velvet Zara boots, whose color works very well as an accent and a black Zara bag.

Black at any time, in any combination

You can wear black at any time, at any occasions and in any combination.

No matter the time of the year I always have a lot of black pieces in my outfits, mainly because they are really easy to match. Honestly, in the past, the black color was predominant in my wardrobe, but the more I followed the fashion trends, the more I reduced it. And not only because of those trends, but also because I realised how beautiful colors could be – colors that I previously thought would not fit me. In fact I also found out something more – we wear the colors that match our mood. Maybe that was the reason that for a long time I was hiding behind the black color. But step by step I changed that, albeit even today, when in doubt, I choose black.

In this outfit I went for a trendy black hoodie with pleats on the back, a black Pimkie booties, a black Valentino bag and a black winter cap, matched with a long beige Zara coat and gray Gucci jeans. So although the black pieces are dominant, adding some fresh colors make the outfit looking nice in a fashionway.
