sweater, jacket, pink T: H&M - sneakers: New Look - watch: Swatch - skinnies: Lee
Meet my new favorite shoes. Some mega cheap sneakers from New Look that are the perfect cheap hybrid between Converse and Vans. And did I mention they are cheap? They are so cheap! Not that that is the most important thing in the world, but Converse (as much as I love them) die on me after like a few months, and I find that ridic for a shoe that usually sets you back about 60€.
The sweater is an oldie. It used to look like this, but then I cut off the bottom and shredded it a bit and this is the end result (for now, pretty sure I'll shred on!). Kinda cool. Funny thing, after about three years I'm right back where I started, fashionwise. First I buy that skull cut out T that I've been wanting ever since I saw it on my ex-blogcrush, Camille, back in 2009 and now I'm shredding sweaters like that hugely popular shredded T that was all the rage back then. AM I FINALLY OLD ENOUGH TO NOTICE THE (re)CYCLE OF FASHION? To be continued.
I'm surprised you still actually have a sweater, after cutting it off. Could've lost the whole thing as easily :p I like all things shredded, though!
ReplyDeleteoh but I've done that before, if you just roughly hand sew the bottom in place it will hold! :D
ReplyDeleteCamille! Haar blog was ik helemaal vergeten :) Fashion comes and goes, ik heb het ook al gemerkt! We worden oud ;)
ReplyDeleteLeuke relaxte outfit! Heb dezelfde zonnebril trouwens :D
ReplyDeleteen ik begin ook weer dingen te dragen van vroeger, gisteren had ik zelfs een broek aan van toen ik 14 was! Ofwel waren we dan echt superhard fashion forward ofwel keert alles heel snel terug :D (ik gok op dat laatste ;p toch in mijn geval) xx
I love this outfit! Very casual but still very put together :) I know I have said this before, but I can't get over your hair, its amazing! :)

I am old enough to have seen some things come back I swore never would. Not a fun experience, but bring it on '90's, bring it on.

Love what you did w/ that sweater, super cute and so wearable! fun to see what it was like originally. it's a good thing though if you're back to liking things in the past, instead of looking back and wanting to vomit... which happens to me when I see pics of my elementary school outfits.

oh but that happens as well :D I only like certain pieces, not the combinations! :D
ReplyDeleteReally depends on the knit, though! The looser it is, the bigger the chance it'll come loose :p
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it's not proper English :D
ReplyDeleteit won't all fall to pieces though, your sweater will just look super deconstructed and I like that! :D
ReplyDelete"AM I FINALLY OLD ENOUGH TO NOTICE THE (re)CYCLE OF FASHION?" Yep. Not telling you are old, lol, but the fashion recycles itself everytime. I see this 90s re-fashion is really huge now. I could pull off my entire 90s wardrobe at this time and no one would notice they are old pieces. Very old clothes of mine, things I haven't worn for more than a decade that I'm starting to pull off again!
ReplyDeleteAre these shoes Superga? I had those sneakers as well, back then. Everyone was wearing it all the time. I still have it, actually, and they are in great condition. If I bought it in '92 are they considered vintage? :D
Oh, the mistery of vintage, fashion, re-fashion....... ^^
Ha, so cool that you linked back to the old post with the sweater, I had totally forgotten how you looked like with dark shorter hair! It's such a huge difference to how you look now! But I like your hair either way and I also like it when you collect "traces of time" on your clothing - like with your sweater :)
ReplyDeleteyeah I know, fashion and culture is a cycle, but this is the first time that I actually notice that I re-like the things I used to like personally! THE END OF AN ERA :D
ReplyDeleteoh and I don't think these shoes have a brand, just New Look! :D
ReplyDeletethe best thing about blogging for me is it fortifying my memory, I can remember most of my blogposts where normally days just become a blur after a while! I prefer my look now, I looked so dorky :D haha
