STYLE INSPIRATION: BASICS

Hello people of the internet!

I do admit that I have neglected this baby for a while- no doubt about that. I simply needed some time to recharge my batteries and let my creativity flow properly again. Creativity is like an old, rusty tap: once you turn it on, it takes ages until proper, clear water comes out. So when you create something, the first outcomes might be rubbish, and it will take time until the creativity flows like clear water.

However. I had a lot of university stuff going on and I left the UK to see my parents for a while. One day, we had lovely sunshine over here and I decided to do a spontaneous outfit shoot. This outfit is actually what I wore on that day. To be honest, we do need more reality in this sugar coated visual world.

So, let’s talk about the main thing, fashion. I am wearing some pair of very basic blue jeans, combined with a vintage blouse, golden and silver jewellery, and a wonderful orange headscarf. I love simple outfits like this one (a lot of people might not consider this outfit as particularly simple, but to me it definitely is). I really like how the accessories bring it to another whole new level. As I wear more patterns and bold colours, this outfit is very basic.

I basically combined two basics that almost everyone has in their wardrobes, and added my personal touch with all the accessories to it. And to me that is what style is about: putting different pieces together in order to create something new that reflects yourself.

I was debating with myself on calling this post “How to style XY”, but I came to the conclusion that there is no point in calling it like that, as I don’t wanna tell anyone what to wear. I want to inspire others more to develop their own style rather than telling them what to wear.
