Don’t you think there is a new wind in the fashion air? This spring I'm seeing myself in fresh flowery colours, innocent pastels, fascinating patterns… I want to wear soft suede and Indian patterns à Altuzarra, twist and turns (and bone-like structures) like Sandra Backlund and intricate patterns, lace and cuts like Bora Aksu.
With this vision I’m storming the sales at net-a-porter. (Thank God for online shopping when the weather is bad, one’s energy low and all official winter sales have ended 3 weeks ago). But after 2 hours of scrolling, picking and binning – what have I chosen? 1 pair of black trousers, 2 black dresses and a jeans dress from Acne. Is it really so difficult to change one’s habits and adapt a new style? Or are the winter sales maybe not the right place to adjust to the summer vibe?
Perhaps I have to send it all back to become the colourful person I’m envisioning myself. But my hunch is I’ll try the clothes on and it will feel just fine and my mind will whisper: Colours? You can always add some later…
Although the weather has changed and it feels nearly spring-like now I wanted to post part 2 of my travel post. Yes, there were days when I had the time and energy to make my own blanket dreams and I still like the pearly snake crawling up the jacket…

It is so military but with soft edges.

i agree. necessary but difficult to push out of winter
Great outfit and pics! I LOVE it!
This is just such an amazing ensemble, Sabine - and you look stunning in it. There's something quite militant about the aesthetic, yet soft at the very same time!! :)
This outfit is really elegant...and really slimming!
um it's like you just walked out of some fashion fairtytale.... luggage and all! SO lovely x
i love that design! it's so interesting and organic :)
Funny, I never thought of the look as military. It must be the hat (which I inherited from my grandmother. She had hats in all styles and shapes, very elegant).
That is such a great coat!! :D
And I can definitely relate to having difficulty changing old style habits. It takes me forever to adapt to every new season. Change always throws me for a loop!
