the flea market 2

The days are getting colder, so much colder... I'm already wearing my winter boots and coat and ask myself what to wear in winter, as I'm already freezing under five layers of clothes! But what the heck - it's still bearable, so what could be better than spending the last enjoyable fall mornings strolling through the local flea market, again? Right, I couldn't think of anything so at 9 o'clock I took my way south. I caught a few impressions from there, although most sellers are rather unhappy having their place's pictures taken...






And this is what I returned home with (not much but the little I bought is great!): a dangerous underwear petticoat skirt, which makes me so happy, as I was looking for one like that for a very long time. I love skirts but most of those I own don't have a slip skirt beneath. Now I got one for all of them! Plus a simple but lovely black skirt with folky decorations. Classy but down-to-earth.


This black velvet ethno bag I got for free because the front decorum has to be fixed... lucky me! It's a huge bag with a lot of space; I only got one big black bag and I definitely needed a second choice, so this is a lucky discovery for me! And the brooch is not that bad either...


Another supergreat discovery: a black digital portable cassette-player! This is my one retro obsession: I love cassettes and I love my cassette player. I got dozens and dozens of self-made cassettes which have to last another 80 years, at least! No iPod in my life (not yet) ;) Well, but my player is broken at the moment, and I don't have enough money to have it repaired. It cost 100 Euros and the one I found today is quite the same but cost only 2!!! And it works! My, what a difference a day makes! Happy Sunday, everybody! =)

bags!

Oh my, I could spend the whole day with making announcements of my latest blog discoveries! I don't know if you follow me here but I totally adore all those crafty-blogs: knitting, sewing, just being creative! These sites are so inspiring to me and it just feels good to create things yourself, to create something unique. And, yes: things get more precious the more time you spent making them... mostly ;) Well, for today I choose this ever cute site "Artsy Crafty Babe", because I discovered a couple of gorgeous items there, like those autumn-style bags here:

You can buy them in her etsy-shop! I also discovered this one which makes me want to create a bag like the above with a patchwork-pattern like this:

I love flower-shaped buttons!!!

New kitty bag!

Today I received my new supergreat, grey kitty bag, which I ordered from an Austrian seller on eBay. It's just so lovely - I love the natural fabrics, the cottage style linen look, the wooden button and those ever cute kitties. It's handmade and it cost me almost nothing!

boots again!

I love Autumn! Well, it's got its grey sides, it brings rain and unfriendly bunches of clouds are putting this veil on everything, that makes you want to spend the whole day inside. Which is great too! Who doesn't love long, dark evenings with hot chocolate, candles, warm woven socks and a good movie on TV?! The second thing: boots! You can try hard but actually it's no fun to wear boots in summer! So pulling my beloved boots out of the closet after months of negligence is the most lovely welcome-back I can imagine! Today I wear them with a simple curduroy skirt and my fluffy fake-fur-coat I introduced lately...

today's outfit

Spending the weekend at a Bavarian village wedding left a lot of positivity inside of me. Even though it's grey outside and raining, I feel sort of joyful and enjoy the day just as much as any sunny Sunday! Well, and the bride and all the lovely wedding decorations inspired me to wear flowers! That's not too inventive now, but maybe I wouldn't have had the strength to dress up against the weather...





I especially love the new grey tights I bought, which are extraordinarily soft and got these nice folky patterns. They fit perfectly with my favourite oxfords...





skirt: H&M
tights: canda
bag: vintage

peace!


Today I discovered this beautiful hippie fashion site soul-flower.com. Inspired by the red-golden glistening in the trees and the late-summer air, I just felt like looking for something intense, with strong colours and a natural feeling. The shop is very hippie-like indeed but I found a couple of items which I would happily combine today =) So, this would be my look-and-feel for Wednesday:
I especially love the skirt and the bag (embroideries again!)... my, I guess I'll really have to find out the shipping costs. The items are not too expensive and it seems to be good quality, so maybe I will seriously think about buying anything listed above....

Booooooots

I have to admit, that I am not very much into 70s music. Not at all, to be precise. Oh my, but how do I love 70s vintage clothing! It's inventive, colourful, mostly comfortable, I just love the naive cuteness of back then. Today I received this gorgeous pair of vintage boots in a very autumn-like wine-red. I bought them on eBay, of course, and they were less then 15 Euros! I love them...


I got two beautiful gobelin bags to combine them with, I just can't decide which one fits better... I'd probably take the black one because it's sort of dangerous to have two shades of red which don't fit perfectly. What do you think?
