Long dress crochet pattern

The summer months are a great time to enjoy the beach wearing our favourite „must-haves“. Some of the things we need are nice bikini sets, a sun hat, sunglasses, etc., but for for me a must have is also a cover-up, or a light long cloth like summer tunics, caftans, thin dresses.

With the wide, billowy sleeves and the draped, airy fit, this garment fits and flatters every body type. Not to mention, the loose cut also keeps you cool on warm days and balmy nights.

Such is my crochet style white tunic from Zara today – it helps protect me from the sun while makes me feel elegant even on the beach. Of course I combined it with a Calzedonia bikini set – a black one, because I love combining black and white. The sunglasses I chose are from Michael Kors.

It’s the season when all the colors are around us

It is summer – the season in which all colors are all around us – in nature, in our daily lives, in our outfits and even in our mood. That is why I decided to make a post today, surrounded by nature in my own house’s garden, without a dedicated outfit, but a tunic from fashioway that has nearly all possible colors. Sometimes instead of matching many pieces for an outfit, a simple piece of cloth is enough to make us feel comfortable. So is my look today – just  shorts and a tunic. Of course we should not forget the accessories – here my sunglasses are from Louis Vuitton.

The summer feeling should be light and casual and I think we all have pieces like that in our wardrobes.

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.

Mint green with black

We’ve seen many different green hues this spring/summer season, but there’s one different and unique green – the pastel mint green. Looking pastel and creamy, the mint green is definitely one of the most special one in the green palette.

While there is nothing new about pastels in spring, the mint green color during the spring 2021 runways felt fresh as ever. After several seasons filled with neon colors, the muted green was really a welcome sight. Mint, aquamarine, avocado, pistachio, moss or laurel – whichever name you choose, this fashion color are on trend this spring/summer.

To be honest, the mint green color is charming, looks comfortable and matches well with many different occasions. Here I have rounded up an outfit with it – the main color is black, with the green as secondary. A Zara oversized shacket jeans shirt, short black Calzedonia biker leggings with a black Zara top, Michael Kors shoes, an eye-catching glittering Bershka belly bag and black sunglasses.

Tender pastel purple

I am so in love with the pastel colors this season that I would wear every day something in this palette.

I found this sweet dress by Zara – trendy, comfortable and easy matchable with the accessories. I top it off with black block heeled sandals, colorful bag as an accent, dainty simple earrings, black sunglasses and nude, minimal makeup for a fresh look. As this September is still warm like in the summer time, this outfit keeps me comfy yet stylish at the same time, in a fashionway.

Bikinis, one-piece or something else

I always wondered which swimsuit suits me better – bikinis or a whole swimsuit. Truth be told, I never fancied being long ours in the sun, neither am I an avid swimmer – so, I have always wanted something in-between. This summer I found these fancy swim-ready top and swimming panties, who are both comfortable and looking great at the pool.

Moreover, the black and white combination has always been one of my favourites – it works great with different outfits, but it does so also for swimsuits, in a fashionway. I can’t forget to mention the black sunglasses with their trendy form, that I like very much. I hope you like it!

Light and easy

There are certain pieces that I would happily wear the whole summer, just like my jumpsuit today. It’s light, comfortable and I do not need to think how to combine it. In addition the colors are very neutral, nature-like and still, I can both wear it for a walk in the park, as well as a casual outfit for the streets. And for the hot summer days for me it is important not only to have fashionable but also practical clothes.

I combined it with one of my favourite Fracomina jeans bag and Stradivarius block heels with transparent straps. Of course, the sunglasses are always a welcome addition in the summer days.

So, it’s really good to have some airy, easygoing and casual pieces in our wardrobes wich we can wear in an easy fashionway.

It‘s all good when wearing coral pink

One of the biggest color trends that you can see everywhere this summer is the coral pink – it combines the warmth of coral with the delicacy of pink. This soothing, feminine hue is chic to wear both day and night – perfect for evening affairs when it comes in textured fabrics, such as silk, sequins, and tulle and also nice for the day for jeans material, cotton, linen etc.

I already have several pieces in coral pink in my summer wardrobe but this coral jeans skirt is one of my favourites and I am happy that it matches with almost every T-Shirt, especially when done in a fashionway.

A cardigan is always a loved piece

As the weather in may still varies a lot, a light cardigan is always a good piece to have around. But being very comfortable, a cardigan can also be very tricky and can easily ruin our outfit – that’s why you should know how to wear it without looking funny and frumpy.

The first thing is to figure out the style and length of the cardigan that fits best your body type. As with everything else about fashion, women’s bodes are different, so certain styles would be more flattering on some than others. That’s why you should learn what works best for your own body.

And it’s good to wear form-fitting clothes underneath a cardigan, or tight or belted dresses. Especially if the cardigan is a bit slouchy, you have to make sure the silhouette underneath it is form-fitting, otherwise you might look larger than you are.

The next thing to pay attention to is the fit of the arms – my favourites are the ones that have skinnier arms and feel the most slimming.

Also, feel free to show some skin – especially when most of the rest of your body is covered up. It’s more about what you put under your cardigan than the style of the cardigan itself. For example – if you combine with a turtleneck top – choose a sleeveless one, with open shoulders or collar bones. If you wear a normal shirt don’t cover the neckline with a scarf – show some skin instead.

In all that you should still pay attention to the current trends – right now, open cardigans are pretty hot – with holes, semi-transparent and with a different length on both sides.

I chose a holed pale pink cardigan, matched it with a black sleeveless turtleneck top underneath and skinny jeans. Of course, I can’t miss the accessories because they complete the outfit – a long necklace and earrings with a matching bracelet, sunglasses and a bag and shoes with the same colors and details.

Taking in the fresh air of spring

The sweet breeze outside will put a smile on your face and make you enjoy your day. It always amazes me, how, just taking a walk outside instead of being online all day can make you feel as happy as only nature can. Especially these days, having that part of your day, when you just do nothing, is really important. I need to clear my mind to be productive and there are many ways to do so – meditating for example or just relaxing and having a coffee are some of my favorites.

Today’s outfit is in the trendy pastel violet. The skinny jeans with the sweet glittering hearts are combined with Bugatti sneakers, a tiny bag and Michael Kors sunglasses.
