//// Soft shades
Posted on | April 30, 2010 | 4 Comments




I think I’m going to spend this whole spring in soft shades. The husband jeans will be my everyday basics and I will emphasize my newly found waist with fitted, waistlength jackets (still quite far from waist belts, though). Powder, marshmallow, cream, ivory, dove… …with denim, leather and preferably oxidised metals. Nothing fancy. Flowing, lightweight, easygoing, basic… …bit like my current life situation, which feels so very welcome after heavy autumn and long dark and very wintery winter.
So I’m wearing old Acne jeans, Ash wedges with some socks I found from my wardrobe, couple of sheer H&M tanks and new H&M jacket. This is awesome piece, the cut is great for my body type and I love the details. And it is not made in China…

I love the details of that jacket. I’ve been gravitating towards some softer shades the last few days, but mostly various shades of grey. Can never look too soft with jet black hair and straight across blunt bangs though. Ah well.

Ah, isn’t that kind of hair just the necessary contrast to soft shades? My only hesitation with light palette is that I easily get all washed out with this mousy hair and pale eyes.
…no wonder I felt the need to dig out my red lipstick — MAC Russian Red, the best \o/

Yes, I finally have lost some weight — it sits really tight on me.
