Petrichor Beauty - reviews, style and overthinking

For the last post of the year, I chose to create another outfit inspiration collage. Maybe you have the privilege to go somewhere fancy and search for a last-minute idea, or you just want to kill some time and relax in front of your screen. I didn’t want to end this month with that typical post about new year’s resolution and endless goals – I might still do that in January though, but somehow I doubt. Fashion is always a great way to express yourself without being too strenuous. This look is more traditional – a dark blue dress with lots of silver metallic threads, it is timeless and elegant. Then I overreacted a bit with silver slings with giant jeweled clasp and silver purse, also quite decorated with floral details. But it is the occasion when we can be over the top and it still looks acceptable.  Dress - Swing (Peek&Cloppenburg) Shoes - DUNE London Casis (Zalando) Bag - Mascara (Zalando)

Red and gold are somehow reserved for Christmas, but for the last day of the year is – dark and elegant. I wanted to change that and include something a bit unusual to my lookbook – a cream, floral romantic dress that is more usual for springtime and some metallic contrast with rosegold shoes, bag, and accessories. I wanted to present this look as a fresh start and a confident step into 2022.

This is one of my pre-winter outfit ideas. 3/4-sleeved turtleneck by Maxmara  – it is the most expensive item from the picture. I wanted a solidly ˝built˝ quality jumper (wool and cashmere blend), basic and versatile. Something that would surely keep me warm and made me feel luxuriously great. I am not sure if I can justify its price point. And also, the type of coat I chose to go with it almost requires something with a high neck. Leather effect leggings by Hugo Boss  – another fancy selection. I love how they look on skinny people, but I am not sure if I would be comfortable wearing them, not even under a long coat. Maybe I should try with just a shiny finish first They give that sexy touch to the classic elegance. Warm leggings can be a great, stylish and comfortable option as long as they don’t look cheap.
