Second Hand Shopping

G-Star anorak

G-Star windbreaker style anorak

Hi guys, I am back with one of my second hand / vintage items.

Today I present my G-Star anorak.

It has its typical denim G like symbol on the the back and it signature brand.

A high neck knitted collar and cuffs, and a few zips here and there.

I got this great and easy to wear jacket in Dublin at a second hand charity shop for only 15 euro.

It shows again how affordable shopping can be.

I know it is probably a few seasons old, but I like it anyway.

My motto is, "style doesn't come with a price tag nor a name". (no offence)

Important is that what one wears fits ones body shape and completion, maybe also ones eye color and most important, matches your personality.

That's the key to get away with almost anything in fashion.

Okay bye for now and read me soon ;-) xxx

Thanks,

You

Since green is my color, I could not pass this gorgeous women in green.

This 50's/60's inspired high street dress is just a stunner.

And believe me the photos do not do her any justice compared to the real appearance that was presented in front of me.

Michelle

Here a few items to give that great green dress the finishing touches.

Of course one could pick a red clutch or red shoes matching Michelle's fabulous lipstick, but I chose leopard print to give it the extra edge.

Thanks Michelle

Love,

     Carsten

Beth

I met Beth on a night out with her friends.

She reminded me of the young Madonna.

I love her interpretation of the rock chick look.

Beth is wearing a 80's style tank top, paired with black shiny stretch pants and of course high heels.

I like the fact she didn't choose black as in the rest of the outfit, she choose a plum, purple color to give the look an extra hint of color.

To make her outfit complete, she added a black crucifix neck less and an oversize ring with a dark stone to repeat and tie in the color scheme.

You see again accessories are super important to complete an outfit.

Also matching different colors and stay in a scheme makes all looking more complete and chic.

Thanks for posing Beth xxx

Love,
