BEST SELLER PROBLEMS


Wassup everyone ! 

I'm back with another outfit and I'm wearing one piece that is a total beauty and brings along one
big problem: almost everyone owns it. Walking down the streets of Vienna I realized that every
other woman is wearing this beautiful camel coat I picked up from Mango lately. And I've seen 
a lot of women wearing it before I bought it already. That didn't stop me from still buying it. 
Even the nice fashion consultants tried to keep me off from purchasing one of their best sellers.
As this was the last piece they had in store I decided to still go for it. Let's be honest: There's always
one piece of a season that everyone has an eye on. If you like it wear it. If others have it, I really
don't care (anymore). I think that if I would care and wouldn't want others to have the same garments,
I really would or should have started this fashion blog where I (at least try to) post my outfits on a
regular basis.





I think that if you try to combine your pieces differently and your game is strong at it, there's a chance
that no one will even notice that you're wearing the same piece as the other person, even if you would
stand next to this person. Well, it's a bit difficult to do that with a coat as this is like a key piece to 
your whole outfit. Anyways... 



I'm wearing an all black outfit again, just because this is my to-go thing. Pulling off that all black
thingy will look like you actually put at least some effort in your outfit even if you didn't. Combing
your hair will make it even more credible. I mean it. There are times where I forget to comb mine :/
And there are just these days where you really don't have the time to think about your looks or what
you're wearing. I think we all do have bigger problems in life. If not, you're a lucky ass bitch. But 
making our outfit to one of our daily problems can be fun sometimes, right? My lazy days are
mostly those when I have to take my courses. I really hate wasting my good outfits or items just for 1-
2 hours of boredom interesting lectures, which are fyi all taking place early in the morning. Then 
again, I like to be spontaneous and sometimes I grab coffee or have lunch with friends afterwards all
unplanned and in that case I don't like the feeling of being underdressed and wearing the boring look
all day long. 



So as you see here, I tried to dress up my simple and basic turtle neck with my faux leather vest, just
to make it a bit more interesting, which is always the fun part. Topping it off with my lovely camel 
coat I am ready to go. 

  

What's your opinion on having similar clothes to the rest of the population? LOL. Are you fine with
wearing the same garments that almost everyone in town has or would you keep your fingers off it?
Let me know what you think! Wishin' y'all a wonderful weekend. xx

SHOES I'D NEVER WEAR AGAIN...

Hey everyone, 

I am really trying to put more outfit-posts on the blog now and hopefully I'll find enough time to do
this on a regular basis. Here is what I wore  yesterday. Well, the weather here in Vienna is kinda 
confusing. The only thing that prevents you from wearing far too much or from freezing is layering.


This layered outfit shows you one option:
I layered a denim shirt with a warm cape. And yes. Capes are one reason why I love fall.
I'm not talking about the capes heroes wear in movies and comics. I'm talkin' 'bout the blanket kinda 
capes.   I'm sure in this point opinions differ. Some people find capes not stylish at all. 

"This is what my grandma would wear". Yap right, and actually that's exactly what my grandma is wearing.

It is not a secret that my favorite place to shop is my grandmas closet. Because come on. Fashions
pass. And most of the time we love the good old vintage pieces our parents or grandparents used to
wear. At that point I have to say that I love my grandmas attire. It has this chic touch and this is 
one of the reasons why I love capes. They are simply chic without this trying hard thing. And that
is the point. I love me some good pieces that seem to be cute, chic and are still items for lazy people
like me. 




Even if I'm okay with sometimes wearing the same pieces as my grandma, I still don't want to look
like one. I'm 23 y/o and so I thought I'd pair this cape with a denim shirt and a pair of corduroy pants
I bought ages ago to keep it kinda casual and classy at the same time and to give this whole outfit a
younger and fresher kick. Another reason why I'm a sucker for capes is, that you can conceal at least 
some of the jelly rolls - and hey, usually they multiply in wintertime. Also I have to say that I really 
feel good buying a one-sized piece, knowing that I can wear the same size like some of my thinner
friends. Yes, that's how I cheat on myself. :P 



To add an instant polish to this outfit I decided to go for a pair of heels I bought from H&M. I really
can't imagine how I used to go out and party all night with these killers on my feet. They hurt so 
much so I really had to take a break from shooting this outfit. I am definitely not going to wear
them again. The pain also explains my suffering face expression. I am really used to wearing heels
and I also wear them everyday at work but these are a total fail and a bit much for my feet. Last time
I cleared out my wardrobe I thought I keep them because they actually look cute and are perfect for 
fall. Well, they are perfect if you want to fall at some point where you can't stand the pain anymore.
I'd rather buy a comfy pair with a good platform and pay a little more than walk in those shoes again. 

If you still like these kind of heels for this look, I would recommend you to look for some similars.

HANGOVER OUTFIT


Well, the caption says it all. Actually this is what I would wear after a long night having a major
hangover. Combining a simple tee with a nice simple jacket and a little black for the lower section
is easy as fuck and doesn't need that much of brain work. Not to forget that sunnies are immensely
helpful when you're not able to handle your dark under-eye circles. If you are fit enough you can 
always add a little bling to your outfit. Voilá! You're now ready to go.
