Catwalk and High End Fashion

Everyone who's interested in fashion dreams about having Chanel bag or Jimmy Choo high heels. I am fairly sure they do.
As long as I love making clothes from the old ones, exploring my mum's pieces and looking for bargains at the mall, I also wish to have some high end 'pearls' in my collection.

Some of the designers, models and random people photoed on a Paris' streets are my big inspiration when it comes to fashion.
I try not to follow trends blindly. I do not like most of strange looking clothes from catwalks actually. But I looked at recent fashion shows of my favorites brand and designers and actually enjoyed many of outfits.
Here are the photos of the best in my opinion

I get inspired from way too many movies. But the major inspiration was and will be always Blair Waldorf, played in Gossip Girl by Leighton Meester.

Her style is very characteristic however it always stay classy (not particularly simple). There are few looks of her that wouldn't work without the strong confidence Leighton put into the Blair's character. That is what I adore in High End fashion. Confidence is a think, which everyone is able to see by only looking at a person.
Of course I generalize facts, but I strongly believe that clothes always go with features of character and may help creating good impression or destroy it completely, when people don't know how connect those two things. Feeling precious help being confident. And we ourselfs create prizes of what we wearing (of course, with Burberry coat it would be WAY easier to feel that, but still it is not essential)

Another real lady among people is Blake Lively. She's very unique but still classy. For me, you can feel positive energy from all of her photos. Outfits she creates (or, when it comes to photo sessions, are created for her) are nice especially for me, as she's my height and I can tell precisely if something she wears would look good on me. Her figure convinced me also to wear high heels more often. (still, Vans are my biggest love, but they are completely out of topic :DD)

England loves her. World is talking about her good taste in fashion. Yes, I am talking about Kate Middelton and her royal clothes made in heaven. She's perfection for me. Combining traditional English style with newest trends right from the designer seems to be so easy for Kate!

And now let's talk about wish list. I assume every fashion lover has one. Such a wish list is also kind of essentials I would choose if I had too money to spend :))

1. Chanel Flap Bag with golden details. 

Such bag is like a business card that shows you are classy and tasteful! I love how simply it is. It may be worn either for some dressy occasions or to spice up casual outfit.

2. Burberry trench coat + check cashmere scarf

Again, that is a piece of clothing that matches everything and will be worn very often. It will help you to keep look subtle. As for me, I would choose the longer one from West Minster, classic fit in honey color + classical colored scarf.

3. High heels from Jimmy Choo.

Either they are black or nude, as long as they are pumps, they are perfect mach for all clothes. I would choose nude Anouk ones, but it's just my choice (all of them are perfect)

4. Tiffany & Co. Heart Key Pendant
Breakfast at Tiffany may be the best breakfast ever! Who don't want to have so classic one in their collection?

5. Marc Jacob's watch.

Last, but definitely not least! Big gold watch from Marc Jacobs will look perfect even with white shirt and jeans! 

All photos from Wish List were taken from original designers' websites.

Enough for dreaming! It's time to come back to reality. I hope you like my view on catwalk's fashion. For those who do not enjoy High End clothes and that kind of classic style I will make a post connected with high street clothing and best chain stores in which you can purchase clothes of good design and quality.

Kisses!

Favorites ★

I came across an idea for a new posts series. I want to show you some of my favorites recent things, shows, people and music that I like.
I hope you will like it, let's begin!

1. MUSIC
I know, that I am probably the last person who did not know about Spotify. But that is the true. I had no idea that web page and phone application existed. And now I'm loving that!
The best section is, in my opinion, Chill and Working out and the Traveling one. For last days I've enjoyed (and I still do) this kind of music, that is hard to define, not anything characteristic but still touching for me.
I looove songs that give me shivers even though they are not at high level of quality :)

So those are probably my favorites ones (especially 'Welcome Home'! Gosh, I love it so much)

Radical Face- Welcome Home

Lana del Rey- Once upon a Dream

Eddie Vedder- Long nights

  2. TV SERIES
Despite my old addiction to Pretty Little Liars and How I met your Mother I found a new one!
I am watching ER with my mum. I doubt that anyone in my age would like to watch that, but can I just say, that I do not care, 'cause it is pretty amazing!
If someone like medical series, that one is terrific and I strongly recommend to take a look at at least two episodes.
+ dr. John Carter is absolute perfection!

I might become photo editor! My skills are stunning, aren't they?

3. YOUTUBERS

YouTube takes most of the time I spend in the Internet. I usually find someone new from time to time and watch all (and when I say all I really mean it) of their videos.

That was when I subscribed to Jamie's channel. 

Jamie's World is so ridiculous and hilarious that I forget about everything bad. Seriously I can watch her short videos for ever and I laugh at every single one.

Then I found out that she has a Facebook page too... I guess I have too much time when I count hours I've spent on watching Jamie Curry. But I recommend her channel! She's brilliant :)

Second person that I've been enjoying watching is Ella Rose. I found her longboarding channel about one year ago but I've never got more deep into that.

A few days ago I re-subscribed her as I liked her tips very handy. Then I saw, she has another two channels, she's very smart and has great sense of humor. 

On her not longboarding channels she's showing 'everything and nothing', but still I found her fantastic to watch!

+ what she's doing on her longboard is amazing, I can watch her doing tricks and sliding for hours and she's motivating me to do more in that direction :)

4. SPORT

Yes, I love boards. Snowboarding is still being some kind of mystery to solve as I have only week per year to practice but I fell in love with that winter sport last year and I can't wait to snowboard again (unfortunately, the week of winter break has gone). 

In that case beautiful, sunny weather is blessing. I can longboard! I practice a lot and I'm trying to go everywhere with my Penny Board as it's not very hard to pack her. For that moment I'm waiting for new deck to come so I could go on that more often (every day, I hope!).
There are so many web sites, videos and people that motivate me to longboard that I love it even more every day!

Longboard Girls Crew

These are simple perfection!!!

Go longboard guys! It is wonderful feeling I guarantee that :)

That would be the end I think! Hope you like it, 

Kisses xoxo

Vintage inspirations and Spring time!

 

I really do love winter, but when the weather is more sunny and warm after days of frost, snow and chill I feel revived. In these days I like to wander around my neighborhood, walk with my dog in the park or sit on a pier and read or just watch people passing by the road.

Spring is also very inspiring when it comes to fashion. People take off their heavy coats, chunky scarfs and hats. I don't know why, but they start to look better for me. Lighter and even happier.

 My recent big inspiration was 50s' fashion. I watched dozens of old photos and magazines available in the Internet. It became my little obsession, and while I was organizing my wardrobe for a warmer part of a year I started to create some looks matching my vintage love.
As always I do not want to feel anonymous, so I took that in consideration and created the look which you can see on a photos. I feel very comfy and self-confident in that. Again, if I wanted to name brands of this clothes it would be impossible as they mostly come from old wardrobes of my Granny and Mum.

Along with vintage fashion obsession I re-watch some of my favorite old movies. Mostly the main character is played either by Audrey Hepburn or Marilyn Monroe since their films I enjoy watching the most and they are absolute classic for me.

And last but not least is music. As you probably know for a past few months I've been listening to old jazz music like crazy. Recently I started to get more calm with that, but still I can pick some best songs in that style.
