Key to My Style

‘Key to me’ style

4 Comments

Hello you,

I hope you are acknowledging today how awesome you are and how far you have come!?

I am so grateful to have you here. Please say hello so that I can say it directly to you.

Today’s post is to share couple of the pieces I found at vintage fare on Saturday ( Judy’s Affordable Vintage Fare ). I was so excited to be there.

I watched and admired men and women with most unique and inspiring style. What a place to be at! What an awesome galaxy we live in… . There were pieces from decades ago. Sellers were telling me stories about clothes, accessories, shoes and more that I was viewing and buying. This gives me chills. I went with an intention on getting a blouse or a shirt and maybe an accessory and I found it all… not just any, obviously, but things that I imagined myself getting before, I visualized  ;). I usually have an idea what I am looking for ( I am always getting inspired and taking notes ) and I am open to new ideas. I shop with my body and skin tone as well as practicality in mind. Ticked all those boxes yet again :))

I think I just realized, how good I am at the treasure hunting 😉

Let me show you. You may have seen this inspo on my Instagram page some time ago. (Inspo! means I am not looking to get this very top).

I knew I would get what I was inspired here with though, it was just a matter of time ;). How about this :)))??

 

 

What do you think? I love the high neck and buttons at the back, that was what inspired me most. The fabric is different but actually more functional for my day to day life as well as my body shape.

I am so happy. I paired the blouse with these incredible clip earrings from 1960s. I also can’t wait to play around and swap the pieces around with the following combo.

 

 

‘… the way the fabric is woven catches the light where the pattern is woven through in a different direction to the main fabric.
The cream/ white one is tailored with a tapering front section and buttoned at the back.
The electric blue floral satin shirt is a baggier style to be worn with a tight-fitting ‘pencil’ skirt. This colour was very popular in the 80s!’

Quote about these beauties by incredible Fran Boyd ( ‘Goodbyenormajean’ on Instagram, and ‘Goodbye, Norma Jean’ on Facebook ). Find her, follow her and get inspired). I love her positive attitude, excitement, awesome style and knowledge about pieces, every single one.

That is all I am sharing with you today.

There will be more outfits with these as well as new pieces. Watch this space and make sure to follow me on Instagram for daily updates.

PS- ‘Key to me style’ is now becoming a hashtag too. I have been on a search for a word of phrase to use whenever I refer to personal style; one that is inspired, driven and attached to a person as opposed to brand, trends, fashion or anything else outside of their soul. Please feel free to use this phrase and tag me or hashtag your posts, any time you get inspired by someone’s unpredictable style or whenever you share your unique style and outfits that you come up with. Have an awesome day.

Love you,

Gosia

 

Key to My Style

Key to Fun In My Style

Hey my dearest. Hope you love what you are wearing as you are reading this. I hope you are wearing some of your faves and looking as amazing as you deserve. Would love to hear from you or maybe even see. Let me get inspired.

I had a pleasure to have some fun recently with JK Photography again, this time is was a studio photo shoot. I would lie is I said that I’m natural. Nothing further from the true. I have just discovered another area of my life full of room for improvement. Well, will have to be done right 😉

This was a great experience overall. I got to wear few of my new pieces and few almost vintage. I absolutely love mixing old with new. I had recent trends in mind with this one but also tried to stay true with myself and my style.

 

 

 

This is my faaaaaaave coat. I got it last year and everyone who knows me has probably seen me wearing it, all the time. You can probably see it’s been worn and I’m going to need to part with it at some stage but not yet. It looks good and makes me feel awesome so you’re staying buddy ;)) .

Jeans, we all have them right. At least I hope you do as this must be the easiest thing to wear with anything. Next time you shop for a pair, pay a little bit extra and buy the ones that compliment your body perfectly. You will be grateful. If you need advise on that, email me.

I added fishnet stockings under the jeans. Try it out this season and see if you like it. If you do, rock it, if you don’t, stop it.

 

 

 

Now this is what I call a treat. I have been wanting and needing a hat for a while now and now this is a new addition to my wardrobe. So versatile and I will be wearing is whenever the wind doesn’t blow with more than 15 m/h (anyone up North here with me knows what I’m saying ;))

That big shoulder top I am wearing was ‘a little’ out of my comfort zone but it spend way to long in my wardrobe and it was time. Perfect for a shoot. May work out couple of more things to pair it with. If I don’t within a month, it will need to find a new owner 😉

 

 

 

Poncho, so easy to wear or should I say through over your shoulders. I love this one for its colours and texture but it is missing a belt at times so I added a simple leather belt in black to keep it in place. I actually got this one at men’s department. I was so much easier to find a plain one made of great leather as opposed to going through all the multicoloured, fancy ones at ladies. Just like petite ladies can shop at kids department, we can all check out men’s wear sometimes (thinking shirts and jumpers here ;))

 

 

Now here’s an outfit I love but I have come to realization it is not perfect. Don’t take me wrong I am all for ‘as long as it makes you happy, wear it’ but I realized it doesn’t. That is why I am giving this skirt away. I love the ruffled top and it is staying but the skirt will be perfect for a lady with a defined waist. It is super comfortable and has pockets which I love but I will love it if it will serve someone else. If I get no response on this I will simply give it away to charity. We had a good run but it is time my dear ;)) (email me if you’d like it and im happy to give it to you).

 

As always please comment and share your thought about the post. Let me know what you bought recently and how you put together new and old. What are your absolute faves and how are you treating yourself this season.

Live your sparkle lovely ladies and until next time.

Gosia
