Today’s post could also be named “How to wear your summer dress in winter” – because this is one way to do so. :) Scarlett & Jo’s light and easy pocket dresses aren’t the best choice to wear right now because it’s horribly cold outside (especially when you’re standing on top of a parking lot at the airport – it definitely doubles the cold thanks to the wind!). But there are a few ways to leave your summer dresses in the closet and make them wearable in cold temperatures.

My look adds a warm chunky knit cardigan, warm tights and overknee boots. And for that extra splash of color: my bag love, the fuchsia “Miss Dior” (it always makes me happy when I wear it – also because of the color!), and green earrings, plus some bold make-up. ;)

This time, I was smart enough to get → the dress one size smaller than usual. I’m wearing a UK 14 because I learned that this cut (you already know it from → this dress and also → this one – I just wore them off the shoulder because they were loose enough) is very loose around the bust and since mine isn’t that big, I can size down for a better – the actual – fit. Good idea, because now it really works for me! ;)

There’s a new trend in town – bomber jackets! My blogger friend → Anna has already shown you three ways to wear them, today it’s my turn!

This jacket was a surprise gift from persona and a tough challenge. I had to ask my fashionable friends for some advice since I had never worn such a jacket before – not even as a kid! But then I just found out how to style it and “duh!”, no problems anymore. ;) Actually, I’m not very happy with its length – if I was a bit taller, it would definitely be easier to style it. But I’m still learning and this is my first look with it. I’ve already got a second, VERY different look with it that’s waiting to be blogged, and you’re going to see a very different side of me then. But this time, it’s all about a stylish and casual look, perfect for an afternoon in the city – which is where I wore it.

Visiting a fashion event means: you want to look special. ;) Well, at least as far as I’m concerned. Good to know that I’ve got this special talent: finding cool stuff totally last minute. ;)
It has become kind of a ritual to rummage in the “Gold Label” section at TK Maxx (yes, this is another story of a great find there!). It’s not as regularly updated as the normal clothing sections, but from time to time there are some highlights. And just like with the last dress (remember my → See by Chloé dream dress? Leopard coincidence, haha!), I picked out another beauty. This time, it’s from Diane von Furstenberg (again, and still not a wrap dress) and a real gem. I mean: look at the colors, look at the great cut of this dress! I know we’ve got some major #visiblebellyoutline up there, but who cares (I don’t!)? This is a tight dress, it shows exactly what I got and: I l-o-v-e it. Best splash of color on a hot day (and believe me – I was melting until I put my feet into this deliciously refreshing water! I actually wanted to forget my plans for the day and get naked for a little swim, but don’t tell anyone!). I love this dress so much that I even got crazy and bought another one in the mytheresa SALE, with a → black-and-white print. Can’t wait to receive my package (I really hope it fits – it’s a different fabric, silk-jersey, while this one is pure jersey)!

Anyways, let’s talk about this beautiful little beach we found right after meeting Givenchy and Kenzo on a freakin’ cool house boat. Problem is: I want both now. I fell in love with the idea of waking up in this beautiful bedroom (have a look → here!), opening on of the French doors and jumping (naked, haha!) into the water for a little swim. Then coming back and spending the day at this tiny beach, drinking cocktails and just feeling good. Anyone up to fulfilling my dreams?
