You know I’m a big fan of black trousers, and again i’m wearing one of my pairs. I don’t know why I find it so easy to find black trousers but I have the worst of luck with grey, tan and almost every other neutral. I need to stock up a nice khaki or tan for summer, but so far I have had no luck. Why oh why?
Sometimes I blame it on my location, sadly here in Madrid you can’t find most of my favorite brands A.P.C, Margaret Howell, Steven Alan, J Crew (which make awesome summer trousers) and buying them online is a little tricky without trying them on. That’s the thing about trousers I find it a must to buy them in person. Being able to try them on, with all the different fits you can find is the key.
With the craziest of weather this week layering is everything so I paired my trousers with a shirt under a sweatshirt, (a change from my usual shirt/sweater combos) and my gorgeous Gazelle’s thanks to Zalando.es
I’m wearing: Ray-Ban wayfarer sunglasses, Club Monaco shirt, Fruit of the Loom sweatshirt, The Kooples trousers, Adidas Gazelle sneakers and Louis Vuitton Alma bag.
Today I am wearing one of the classics above classics: the straight jeans. As time goes bye more and more styles are being introduced in jeans, and some become classics pretty soon, while others take more time to be accepted by everyone. Well this style of jeans has been around probably forever and is one of the most versatile you will find. They are not skinny, not wide, they have an average length and rise, they are as neutral as it gets. That is a great advantage when you don’t have the time to plan an outfit and need something that will transition easily from day into night, from casual to semi-formal, etc. Today I styled mine with heels but of course I could have done exactly the same outfit with flats or sneakers and it would have worked just as fine.
I’m wearing: Ray-Ban sunglasses, American Apparel shirt, The Kooples blazer, Gap jeans, Robert Clergerie heels and Chanel bag.
I’ve had this flats for so long and I did not have one single picture wearing them! So finally an outfit with my red Chanel classic flats. Red is probably the only bright color I love/wear. I love small red accents on sober, clean outfits, it can be footwear or bags, or red lips but a nice small touch does the trick for me. I also do like red garments but I find so hard to actually find the perfect shade of red that until I do there won’t be any red clothes for me. For now this pair of gorgeous flats are all te red I need!
I’m wearing: Ray-Ban sunglasses, Petit Bateau striped top, The Kooples skirt, Chanel flats and bag.
Another messy spring day! Sometimes I struggle with changes in this weather and sometimes I just adapt easily. Today was less cold than yesterday so I did adapt by wearing my Topshop dungarees. I love them to death, but boy are they thick! They are made of really heavy denim so it’s not a choice for warmer days sadly.
I’m wearing: Ray-Ban sunglasses, Petit Bateau striped top, Topshop dungarees, Castañer espadrilles and Celine bag.
