session

For a few last nights I've been waking up in the middle and thinking about new outfits. I wanted to take some photos, because there have been so many ocassions I wanted to do this and didn't have enough time before I went out, then wish I hadn't taken them. However I understood yesterday, that everything is the best when fresh and natural - I totally prefer taking photos before I go out than dressing up few outfits one day and pose to photos. Definitely. Through this rainy and really cold! weekend in Poland, I updated my Lookbook account, posted 3 photos so far and also created my Chictopia (which I'll post links to). Today I am posting two looks from yesterday session - both a bit of retro with frill blouses (I TOTALLY ADORE THEM!) and knee high socks. Later this day I went to the cinema with my boyfriend, but of course, didn't take photo of my outfit, however I will dress it up again and post it, because it's already cold enough to use my fur vest finally! I also saw beautiful lace up boots in Zara while running to the cinema in shopping mall, so today I'm going to come back and definitely buy them altogether with totally adorable knee high dark red socks.

Right, I'm going to buy those boots I fell for now, then I'll post a look with them as soon as I get them :)

Fall is coming to town..







Please excuse lack of new outfit yesterday, however as usually I've been sitting at home in the morning, eating lunch slowly although I had only 30 mins for my train to leave, and of course I finished running out from home to the taxi just 3 mins before it left. So, there were no chances ot take photo anyway. Today I woke up listening to rainy windy weather outside, and realised that fall is finally coming for good. Therefore, today I'm posting photos of some pieces I have already bought for fall and also those which are waiting on my 'what to buy list'.

1.  My Marc by Marc Jacobs wellingtons . I have this strong feeling for shoes , bags and coats which is also very dangerous - I love collecting them. Although I had bought one wellingtons year ago (when I was preparing myself to spend fall in the UK) I immediately fell in love with those when I saw them in an online shop. I planned to buy 2 pairs for fall - some workers' boots, which I could wear with parka and some high heel boots to wear with my coats. However, I couldn't resist so I decided that my first shoes for fall will be those adorable Marc Jacobs wellys, which could be worn with everything - starting with cardigans , through trenches to parkas.

2. Zara trench coat
I had this bright yellow trench for two years, bought in times when I totally fell in love with gossip girl season 1 outfits with bright coloured coats, white shirts with ribbons and knee high socks. However I have always felt lack of this traditional, basic beige trench which I would wear during colder fall days. I planned to buy one from Asos.com,however on one of my shopping trips I saw this one in Zara and took it with me to the changing room. I was thinking more about some longer one, however when I put this on, I realised that it's ideal for my height (i'm 164cm) and also the material (which is also not actually the one I wanted - It's something water-resistant) is great for those rainy days which are about to come soon.


(It's just as I put this in wardrobe back from shop, haven't ironed yet)
3. Zara winter coat
I wrote about this in previous note - military, dark navy blue coat with golden buttons - the one I've dreamt of since I had seen similar in Burberry F/A collection. Although I have usually preferred the simple tailoring (what my girlfriends always blamed me for - 'Judy u could finally buy something girly, not so serious! -however I havealways boght more architectural, geometrical and simple ones ) this one is a bit dress-like from waist to down and it emphasise the hips , so it fits ideally for me having more asparagus body shape. 



4. All Saints t-shirt
Although It's not exactly the fall piece, I bought it recently during Asos.com clearance , priced 18 pounds, (cannot remember how much it was before the sale now)





And now, what I am still going to buy very soon :

1. Asos croco bag 
I know, I wanted to buy redish coloured accesories for my military coat, although I fell in love with this bag so deeply, that it will be my first choice for sure. 


2. Marc by Marc Jacobs shopper bag
When I join pre-IB class last year, I realised that it's such a good idea to carry actually two bags with you to school - one handbag with your stuff such as make up bag, phone, calendar and everything you carry every day, and second one to carry all your books. I wish I had come up with this idea earlier, before all my last year handbags' handles broke. So, I plan to buy this one to carry all school stuff in this, it's canvas and suitable for books I think.  (I was going to by one from the line Miss Marc by Marc Jacobs with those funny little cartoon girl and pets, however they didn't ship to Poland. So, I chose the plain, black one and again - shipping to US only on Bergdorf Goodman. So, I decided to buy this one:





3. Asos messenger bag
Except of this beuatiful croco bag I'm going to buy also some more vintage-looking , made of 'old' leather bag which will be suitable to parka or cardigan and some more grunge-lookng outfit.

For now that's all, although I have few more pieces on my 'to buy' list, I haven't seen any concrete online yet. I promise tomorrow new outfit will be posted for sure!

Transparent blouse and lace bra

Today i'm posting monday's outfit, which (what didn't surprise me at all) has been a bit controversial to wear in my city. There people haven't got used to this yet, we cannot even find a few women who would wear transparent shirt/blouse without bra or with one which is really apparent. They would rather wear white bra with white shirt and black one with dark shirt not to be visible for people. On the one hand, it's ok if they are not convinced to this enough, although i'd prefer to live in a place where i could go out wearing white t-shirt with no bra and nobody would look as if i was insane. However, i think i'd have to wait to let people get used to this. For now, i don't care about them and wear whatever i want to ,haha. It's not so visible in this photos, anyway, cause sun was shinin too much when photos were taken. 

(in real this blouse is half transparent)
aldo sandals, primark bag, mango blouse, jeans shorts, h&m necklace

And I also post photo with high heels, which actually I adore, however both options were equally suitable, so i didn't know which one to choose.

*high heels bought in Toledo during holidays

Always when I lose weight, even a few kilos, i suddenly start to feel cold almost non stop. That's why this year i've been waiting for summer really impatiently. However, i must admit, fall is my favourite season in fashion. I love buying new coats every year, i adore all fall accesories - leather (especially croco) bags, high heel boots, this year's wedge boots (they're really gorgeous) , even leathers gloves. 
My favourite trends this fall are definitely :
* Military coats - especially those from burberry show, when saw them, I instantly fell in love - navy blue , wool coats with gold buttons - essence of elegance in my opinion. Then, I found perfect one in Topshop, however until I ordered it was already sold out. Then I went to shopping mall in my area and saw this beautiful navy blue coat with gold buttons - even more beautiful than one from Topshop! - in Zara. I left all my      clothes which i picked earlier in shop and bought the coat, being so happy as i only could be. I must confess here- I'm addicted to them. Every year at least 2 new coats are my must-have. I will post photo of it in the next note.
* Parkas - I love them. Although i don't have one yet, i will buy it for sure. Parka is irreplaceable when it comes to this autumn rainy days, when u don't feel like wearing trench coats with high heels. You just put parka, messenger bag and flat boots - voila!
Vila parka from Asos.com

* Camel - I adore this colour. I bought trench coat in camel this summer, and I'm definitely going to buy some cigarette- trousers (if u know what i mean) as well. I also adore winter coats in camel, but maybe I will leave this topic, because one more coat and I will have to buy new wardrobe for them, haha.
* Red accesories - when i saw this trend I was really happy, because I instantly thought about my navy coat - red leather bag will suit to it perfectly in my opinion ! I would also like to buy redish or plum coloured high
 heel boots to this. It will look perfect I think. I would also like ot show you boots I fell for:
Yves Saint Laurent high heel boots from net-a-porter.com

* Leather aviator jackets with fur collars - I totally adore them! Especially from new Acne collection. Although I bought my outerwear and now i must focus on accesories for fall, I think that maybe if I find some bargain I will buy jacket like this one from Asos :

Soon I will post photos of pieces I have already bought for fall and also list what I have in plans yet. But also be prepared for some summer outfits - it's not over yet!

Last days of summer

Hi, this is my first post, although i've been having plans to start writing this blog since last year I've just never had enough time to take photos of my every day outfits or simply forgot to do it. Anyway, I love reading such blogs as well as looking for some inspirations on street style sites and lookbook. I will try to post new notes every day if i only manage to do it. Apart from clothes I will also report there everything what inspires me,  some random things from my every day life, and also comments about fashion and latest trends. For now, this is my outfit from sunday, which was very hot and sunny , beautiful day.


I'm wearing zara jeggings, asos top, aldo studded flats, h&m necklace and primark bag
*Please excuse the quality, but this photo was taken with my blackberry, not professional camera
