I promised you to style a real outfit with the shirt. Here it is! And it’s been one of your absolute favorites on → Instagram. :) That’s why I’m very happy to show you even more pictures of the look.

Not only the Beth Ditto x Jean Paul Gaultier shirt has been a hit, but also the tulle skirt from Scarlett & Jo, which actually isn’t a real tulle skirt (and that’s why I love it even more). It’s a regular black skirt with a net layer on it. That’s what makes it even more special and gives it a more sophisticated look (instead of being too princess-like). The elastic waist band runs a little bit small, I’m wearing size UK 14/16 and since I’m more of a 16, one size up would be a bit more comfortable. So if you tend to be the bigger size of the two, you should consider buying a size up. ;)
Talking about the shirt – this is a 1XL and you’ve already seen it → here in full bloom. :) When I chose the skirt, I instantly had the idea to wear it with the corset tee because I think that the combination is just perfect. It also gives the shirt a very different look and I think it’s even more interesting like that. But of course it’s also great with leggings or your favorite jeans – and it even looks amazing on men! My blogger friend → Claus shows us in his post how he rocks that corset print! :)

I still have a few fall looks that I haven’t posted yet, so even though it’s already almost winter here, I don’t want to leave them unposted on my PC (by the way: yes, I do work on a PC, not a laptop – guess I’m not a typical blogger, huh?). Maybe where you live it’s still warm enough to use them as inspiration, and if not, just be creative and make them work for you (maybe with other boots, warm tights and a beanie?) or save them for next year. ;) There’s always a way! :)

That’s one of my #ruebabe looks I created with my surprise package from → Rue 107 – and again kind of a challenge, since cropped is not really the best choice in fall. But as I said: there’s always a way, and mine was to wear it with a chunky wool cardigan – cozy and warm, so don’t worry about the small stripe of skin! ;)

To be honest, I never would have chosen this skirt by myself – I’m not that “food on my clothes” kind of person, so my first thought was to just wear the shirt and store the skirt somewhere in my closet. But when I tried it on (I always do that before deciding – because everything [and everyone!!!] deserves a chance, and even though you may sometimes think that a piece isn’t made for you and won’t look good, it might become your best friend!), I really liked it. It’s cute and actually looks so nice in that combination (and especially the scenario with the colorful fallen leaves!), that I wouldn’t want to give it away! ;)

ENAnother important piece on my wish list (besides the jumpsuit from my last post) was this kaftan-inspired dress. It has the most beautiful print, is very light (so even though it’s long-sleeved, it’s great for summer!) and perfect for any occasion, so whether you’re going to the beach or just out for a little shopping stroll through the city – with this dress, you’re good to go! ;)

This time, I went for high heels – always better with maxi dresses when you’re as short as me, but this dress also works with flats or barefoot in the sand. ;)

DENoch ein ganz wichtiges Teil auf meiner Wunschliste (neben dem Jumpsuit aus dem letzten Post) war dieses kaftan-inspirierte Kleid. Es hat den weltschönsten Print, ist sehr leicht (also trotz der langen Ärmel auch super für den Sommer!) und perfekt für jeden Anlass, also egal ob man an den Strand geht oder eine kleine Shoppingtour durch die Stadt macht – mit diesem Stück ist man bestens gekleidet! ;)

Dieses Mal hab’ ich mich für High Heels entschieden – die sind bei Maxikleidern als kleiner Mensch wie ich immer die bessere Wahl, aber das Kleid kann man auch super mit flachen Sandalen oder natürlich gleich barfuß im Sand tragen. ;)
