ABOUT JEY

A few days ago we went to Frankfurt to shoot some evening autumn lookbooks for my blog.

My look: camel coat / jeans / shoes / bag

______

My camel coat is from H&M and is already 5 years old. Can you believe that? My coat still looks new, has a great quality and was quite inexpensive. At the time when I bought my coat, it was cheaper than the other ones that are in the stores right now. Also, I think it’s an investment piece because I don’t think it will go out of fashion. Besides that, it gives your outfit a polished look. Lastly, you can always pair these kinds of coats with jeans in the colors: blue, grey & black. And to give your look a much feminine touch you can wear a grey checked skirt or dress with black over-knee boots. It will look great, trust me! ?

What I’m wearing: Blazer / Joggers

I know that this is another guide, but this time it’s a 70s fashion guide. Some of you may have noticed that the 70s and the 90s have made a comeback in the fashion industry. And I don’t wanna lie. Lately, I have put an eye some really cool stuff. That is why I want to link some of my personal 70s  picks and tell you briefly how you can cooperate those things into your personal style.

Also, I hope you like my 70s inspired lookbook with my checked blazer and joggers from bershka.

Jey‘s 70s fashion guide

1. Big sunglasses – Especially the cat-eyed ones – the bigger the better! Seriously, sunglasses bring your outfit to a whole new level!
2. Checked blazer/skirt/pants – you can wear it as a business outfit or put on the blazer with a cute skirt on and some snickers to cut down the seriousness!
3. Big tassel earrings always go well with every outfit.
4. Orange and coral nail polish those give a monochrome or a plain outfit a pop of color!
5. Ankle boot in white pair those with ankle jeans or black short culottes, please!
6. Brown high-waist skirt look very hot with a white T-shirt and brown boots.
7. This last one is a hair tip: cut a fridge or side-swept fringe bangs –  go to your hair stylist that you trust and ask them what suits your face the most.

Cardigan / T-shirt / Jeans / Shoes / Bag

 

This is my second autumn outfit that is on my blog.  On Friday we took the time to shoot these pictures in Frankfurt.

As you might see, I kept this look quite dark because we are entering into the colder months. But I tried to spice it up with white details.

I wore my favorite thick brown cardigan. Which you have seen in my other posts. Also, I paired this autumn look with my black shirt and comfy jeans from Levi’s. The highlight of my outfit are my granny white pumps.  They have the perfect heel and are very comfortable. By the way, I think my white pumps give my outfit a vintage touch. Don’t you think the same? Lastly, I completed the whole look with my cute bag from Jessica Buurman.

Last week was such an exhausting week. Thankfully, we finally found time to shoot this look on Saturday.

After that, we had late breakfast and went mobile phone hunting for the babe in Frankfurt. Jan decided to go to Team Android.  Therefore he bought a Samsung Galaxy S8+ after using his iPhones since more than 6 years. I’m still thinking if I should switch too, but we’ll see. 🙂

As I have said, we drove to Frankfurt and took these pictures of my first autumn look. I wore my old faux fur west on top of my white blouse which I forgot to iron – please bear with me. Haha! I paired my grey jeans with my mules from ASOS, that looks like the Princeton Slippers from Gucci. Lastly, I threw on my new vintage sunglasses from Mango.

Now let’s move on to the most important part – my new bag.  I saw the Pierce bag the first time by J.W.Anderson and quickly fell in love. But it was out of reach for me because I don’t wanted to spend so much money for a trendy bag. When I found out that Jessica Buurman had the same one for a much lower price point and great quality, I couldn’t resist. 🙂  Jessica Buurman is an online shop where you can order designer lookalikes for great quality and a hella low price. You should definitely check their page out. Also, you will receive 10 % on your first order, so rush! I ordered my bag last month and it took very long to arrive in Germany.

By the way, the Pierce bag is available in 3 colors and is made out of leather. And this particular one is named ‘Elise bag’ on their page.

What do you guys think of my new bag?

See you in my next post!

Hello September – I can’t believe that in 4 months we’ll say hello to 2018. The time went way too fast for my liking 😉

Last weekend we shot this look. This time I kept it very simple if you compare it to my last outfit.

I have been loving the minimalist and monochromic look. My understanding of the whole minimalistic style is only combining 2-3 colors. The main colors are black and white. If you want to add colors to your minimalistic outfit, I would recommend a forest green, dark red and any blue tones. All those colors work perfectly with black and white

Now let’s head back to my outfit: For this look, I chose a basic black dress that I dressed up with my striped blouse. Right now, I’m a sucker for everything that has stripes. I think I will wear things with stripes until I die – haha, no I’m just kidding ;-). And the only colors besides black and white, that I added to my outfit is my green mule shoes, which I really love because they are so comfortable. Trust me!

As you can see, I had no makeup on. Therefore, I put on sunglasses, so that I look more put together. I think that sunglasses always give an outfit a “fashionable taste”. Don’t you think the same?

By the way, I’m still experimenting with my own personal look. Because on the one hand I love the minimalistic, monochromic vintage esque look, but on the other hand I enjoy colorful and trendy colors/looks. So please don’t be surprised about the upcoming fashion posts!

I hope you like the post, feel free to leave a comment and please tell me if you are battling with your own personal style. 🙂
