Playing with colors – purple with orange

One of the “style resolutions” I made for myself for the summer 2022 was to embrace more color in my wardrobe and to be brave about mixing the different hues. I took a chance with this purple + orange combination and was pleasantly surprised by how the shades worked so well together without clashing. It definitely inspired me to make something different.

Violet paired with orange is a combination I’ve not worn very often but I definitely like. The purple hoodie is just an every season perfection – I found this one from Pull & Bear. Matched with this orange Summer Bershka overall, it makes a great combination. I topped the outfit with matching purple-black Pull & Bear socks, a Victoria’s Secret bag and one of my favourite sneakers (Alexander McQueen), in a fashionway.

Happy first day of summer 2022

This year, the first day of summer is on Tuesday, June the 21st – exactly on my birthday. So, two wonderful occasions in one day. Every year I wonder what to wish for on this day, and always come back to the same thing, and the most important one – good health for me, my family and friends. Because when we are in good health, everything could happen and is achievable.  

Summers have always been so full of fun….. Summers have always been energetic and vibrant…. And the colors in my wardrobe are also energetic and vibrant – just like these pink Zara dress and bag, green jacket and shoes. The summer is always colorful and raises our spirits. The same should be our outfits and I hope this one is an inspiration for you, in a fashionway.

Head to toe in green, smart casual

If you can, wouldn’t you want to have a wardrobe that works for almost every occasion? Such versatility is what we call „smart casual“. Originally the term has been described in 1924 as a “sleeveless dress with three-quarter overblouses, in smock appearance completing it for streetwear.” – that women’s look, a mix of chic and office attire is similar to what we now consider smart casual.

This style, or in other words an elegant-and-meanwhile-sporty style, is one of my favourites. I love the comfortable feeling, while still combined with elegance – it makes the perfect match – just like this simple, all in green outfit.

I matched basic green casual leggings with an elegant green MONKI flower shirt and topped the outfit with a pair of sporty Nike sneakers and socks – unusual, but different and eye-catching. So try to be outstanding and different, be happy and sexy, be yourself in a fashionway.

Orange is a happy color, orange you happy

Orange is one of the colors that is currently occupying my closet. I usually associate it with autumn and autumn outfits, but the fashion trends say it will be trendy also in spring and summer. And why not – it is a color that for sure is going to put a smile on your face. So, add some orange to your outfits and stay happy.

Here is a simple spring casual outfit that I made using two Zara pieces – just a cool oversized orange shirt that could also be matched with leggings, jogging pants or skirt and a short orange jacket. My currently favorite Nike Air Force Sneakers with Nike socks add a sport touch to the outfit in a fashionway.

Winter white with a pop of pink and black

I always associate the winter with the white color and maybe that’s the reason why most of my winter clothes are in this color. But not only white, of course – one tone would be too boring. It’s one good tip I can give you – keep the most of the outfit in one main color and add a pop of secondary ones.

Obviously in this outfit of mine the main color is white with a pop of pink and black. It consists of my great 2-piece winter jacket – white and pink, THE NORTH FACE pink beanie, a great Chiara Ferragni white logo hoodie, a black sweet little Kenzo bag, a fake leather Calzedonia pants, a pair of nice matching Love Moschino sneakers, black & white LOVE MONKI socks and cool fingerless black OVS gloves – everything matched in a fashionway.

Cream-beige color trend goes on

From cream to camel, the 50 shades of beige are a mainstream trend for the fall/winter 2021. This neutral look is refreshingly modern while delightfully alluring and easily wearable.

The key to keeping this look fresh and modern this season is to wear the color palette from head to toe and mix several shades of neutral tones in your outfit. You can also play with textures – leather, cashmere, cotton and faux fur, or combine with oversized pieces. No matter what, the idea is to keep the outfit interesting. 

In this outfit I matched basic pieces but managed to make their combo eye-catching in a fashionway – a beige Zara top, a pair of short H&M jogging pants, a nice Zara long-sleeve shirt, a pair of Bershka sneakers and Nike socks.

A pop of orange

There is this fire feeling in the orange color and fits perfectly the the hot outfits this summer. We normally see the orange palette mostly in the Autumn season, but now as trendy as it is we see it all over the summer, too.

A piece of orange in an outfit brings out a nice pop of color and makes you so much more eye-catching.

The outfit I made today is once again a simple one, because the orange color stands out enough for all of it. Its all white – a straight long Bershka skirt, white Aleksandarr MqQeen sneakers, white Nike socks and at the end this pop of orange basic Armani T-Shirt. My cute black Kenzo back serves as accent, in a fashionway.

White classic shirt and black denim shorts

A white long sleeved shirt is one of the most classic, investment pieces you can keep in your closet. This versatile piece can be worn in so many different ways, both casual and dressy and I wanted to showcase that for you today!

Can you wear a classic shirt with jean shorts – of course, you can wear anything with anything as long as you have the right attitude and style. You can absolutely wear a classy shirt with edgy, denim jean shorts. In fact, it’s a fabulous look!

This cotton blend shirt from Zara is one of my favorite that I own and it’s perfect also for warmer weather. To complete this shirt and denim shorts outfit, I simply paired them with a nice Gucci belt, black & white J’ADIOR bag and a pair of sneakers. For this look, I went with one of my favorite black jean shorts by Zara. They’re high-waisted, ripped hem, and very comfortable.

I think you just can’t go wrong with a similar look matched in a fashionway.

Keep it casual with jogging pants

Due to the pandemic I hardly felt the switch from the winter to the spring, and especially in Vienna, the spring being so cold and short, we somehow skip it all-together and directly jump in the summer mood. That’s why, even though its May already, my wardrobe is still a mix of winter, spring and summer clothes.

Recently when in doubt what to put on, I tend to always choose jogging pants – mainly because it’s the easiest way to look good, feel comfortable and be on trend at the same time. And because I all into the sweet colors mood I have ones in mint, violet, and pink.

Today I matched my violet one from Pimkie with a white Bershka cropped top, one of my favorite Zara shirts that can be matched with almost everything, „I love you“ socks, multi cream Michael Kors Olympia trainers and a sweet white blue belt bag.

An easy way to look good wearing a long sleeves sweatshirt top and short Joggers

On those smooth days like Sundays you need just a casual look and don’t care mood. So, it might be safe to say joggers are my new favourite pants, not only long ones for the winter but also short ones for the summer. I’ve always been a denim girl, but recently joggers are winning me over. As soon as I laid eyes on these PULL&BEAR joggers and the sweatshirt top in a candy mint color, I knew I need them for this spring/summer season. I love the effortlessness and versatility this outfit has. Some joggers have a tendency to be more relaxed like for home, but these ones are more tight and that’s why they are just my style. (By the way the pants and sweatshirt carry the name „smooth(ie) days“).

I topped the whole outfit with a sweet Bershka bag also in a matching candy color, once more my favourite Alexander McQueen sneakers and a pair of white Nike socks, in a fashionway.
