Oversized, herringbone blazer - perfect for fall!

Undoubtedly one of the hardest working pieces in a woman’s wardrobe, the blazer’s purpose is to bring polish to any outfit. The secret ingredients of a winning blazer? It’s all in the details. Cut is crucial, as is fabrication and fit. Pay attention to the button placement, too: when trying on a potential new investment it’s important to sit and move around in it. I love this herringbone one from & other Stories and will wear it with jeans, talored trousers and leather alike.

Designer SALES special ♥️

The Designer Summer Sales has finally arrived. There are so many amazing items right now, all with up to 60% off. Clicking through hundreds of pages of products can be time consuming, though.

Colour focus: Limonchello 🍋

I have fallen hard for these H&M wide linen trousers! I would love the matching blazer too, and would wear it with as little as possible underneath, some gold jewelery + strappy sandals..

Linen trousers here, matching blazer here

Racerback body here

Yellow is a great option for a spring/summer and complements most skintones. To wear yellow in a grown-up way, opt for matching separates in loose, contemporart silhouettes and stay away from teaming with black!

White Crochet Dress Love

I love putting a more refined, sophisticated spin on the crochet dress. Make it work for a night out by adding a blazer and barely-there heels. The white crochet dress is no-brainer outfit solution on a hot summer day, being both chic, comfortable and breathable.

Black cut-out dress - easy summer outfit 🖤

The cut-out trend is everywhere, but can be somewhat intimidating for us 40+ somethings. This Zara dress does catch the trend, without being too much! Just add flat sandals, chunky gold jewelry, a raffia tote and you´re ready to go!

Budget vs luxury - flip flop edition

I generally don´t like it when high-street stores shamelessly copy designer items, however, in this case I make a rare exception. The reason is that I am not interested in spending 280€ on flip flops..

I love how the croc-croc-effect leather and sleek, squared toes will elevate a casual beach dress or tunic, making them a perfect addition to your holiday wardrobe!
