week 16 archive looks: there was a plan





there was a plan for my wardrobe this season. then i started acquiring pieces from the rundholz dip spring/summer 2024 collection. (so what else is new, right? i have already said this, but it is worth repeating.) as a result, "the plan" for the wardrobe had to be modified. not scrapped, though. modified. all that means is that i will be wearing more new pieces than archive pieces this spring/summer. (the plan was to rely on archive pieces with only a few outfits made of new pieces.) on another note, it was that kind of week: not sure how many layers might be called for and whether a winter jacket might also have to put in an appearance. spring is trying.

week 16 new looks: grey skies may clear up but ...



some of the new additions to my ever burgeoning rundholz dip collection. i wasn't intending to add to my collection to the extent that i ended up adding to it. so what else is new, right? i am loving some of the new fabrics used this season -- like the silk/cotton blend of the trousers. i am also loving some of the new (at least to me) designs (some of the dresses in particular). and, if you know anything about me, you will know how much i love suspenders/braces, so i was thrilled to see them incorporated into the dip line. so, to sum up, looking forward to wearing my new acquisitions in the coming months.

week 13 archive looks: cautiously optimistic






might be closing the autumn/winter season with these archive looks (featuring some "new" pieces). i am cautiously optimistic that spring/summer dressing is around the corner.

week 12 archive looks: how do i know?






some archive looks for the second to last week before the scheduled switch over to the spring/summer wardrobe. plus a new favourite bag. thinking about getting another one of these ... in a colour.

p.s. i reach often for the 220 dip collection, making we wonder if of the various dip collections i possess it is a favourite one. assuming it is a favourite one, i wonder what makes it so. colour? design? fabrics? fit? wearability?

i am wearing rundholz 223 (bag), rundholz dip 223 (cardi), rundholz dip 123 (hightop sneakers) and rundholz dip 220 (top, trousers, dress and coat).

week 11 new looks: jackets, a cardi and bare arms




have been away from the blog for a bit. mostly because i have been re-wearing outfits that have already appeared on the blog. so, basically, nothing to see here. the weather in my neck of the woods has been, well, the usual for this time of year. wintery for the most part with the occasional spring-like day thrown in. so layers work best. and having puffer jackets and light jackets to hand is a must. here is how i have been coping. i will leave it at that. still a few weeks to go before i change over to pulling from the spring/summer wardrobe. there may be one or two new outfits from the autumn/winter wardrobe before then -- if i am feeling particularly inspired. (honestly, february and march are always hard months for me -- lack of inspiration big time.)  otherwise, the next time i appear here, i will be wearing spring/summer clothes.

week 6 new looks: as it was meant to be


some time ago, i mentioned a few pieces of clothing that would make my top ten pieces of clothing. they were boilersuits (or jumpsuits) and overalls, both trouser and skirt versions. long skirts with some volume to them would definitely go in my top ten. and this love of long skirts isn't tied to a season -- i love long skirts in every season. that is now three pieces of clothing on my top ten list. (starting to wonder if ten is too generous a number for can't-live-without pieces of clothing. if i keep going with the list, i guess i will find out. maybe it will end up being too low a number!)
