  • All things chic

These are just a few examples of this fall’s eclectic trend. Never thought you could wear more than one printed piece? Where look how all our fashion no-no’s have been dashed this season.

Some fashion editors call this look “the bag lady look” (handbag editors that is) but in my opinion “eclectic” sounds more flattering.

It’s all about mixing different colors, patterns, fabrics creating a mind-boggling appearance. Stripes, plaid, animal prints and polka dots are designers’ favorites and shoes play a vital role in this “game”. I’ll be searching and showing here in future posts other eclectic looks, mixes of fabrics and colors.

Mad about Plaid… and checks

Plaid and checks

The classic fall pattern is brighter and bolder than before. I’ve seen it almost everywhere, from preppy youthful looks to “hunting club” outfits and even on cocktail dresses and delicate blouses.

Prints and patterns: Polka Dots

Polka Dots

It seems like this season is going to be a fun one. The cheerful polka dots pattern is not a retro cliché anymore. Designers made it look modern and fresh for this season.

Now it’s all about contrast and size. The bigger the dots are…the better...

Fall 2007 Must Have: The Jumpsuit

The Jumpsuit

I’ve always thought, until now, that a jumpsuit is either a toddler “uniform” or a mother-to-be required outfit or…that puffy white cosmonaut suit. But…here comes spring ’07 and then fall ’07 seasons and my opinion changes dramatically.

The...

I was more than happy to find out that knee shorts are still in style. Browsing through fall 2007-winter 2008 fashion collections I’ve discovered new stylish combinations. This season though it’s all about fit and a narrower silhouette so you should wear...

Cars, vivid colors and ghosts

Andreas M. Wiese, Damage  (Verhängnis)

What I love most about Andreas M. Wiese's paintings is that each of them has a captivating scenario at its core. Whether is about old cars, lost cities, troubling, ghostly characters, each artwork opens a strange and unique world to the...

The new poncho

I was browsing through a mid 80s catalogue and staring at those colorful, folksy, silly ponchos. I mean who wore that?

I know that 80s bold bright colors have come back in fashion but not in this “lethal” combination. The new poncho is...

Are suspenders this fall's trend?

Suspenders trend

I'm not sure what to think about the suspenders trouser pants/overalls trend. 70s inspired wide-leg pants, in neutral shades look fine but you should be careful what you wear them with. Stick to a feminine classy look: a delicate bow neck shirt or a...
