How to wear white in winter 5

Sorbet-shades like raspberry, pistachio and apricot or soft shades in delicate crème or soft pink as well as vanilla or greige, these are the pastel colors, every woman can wear. They reappear periodically as a trend. Especially in spring and summer the light colors with a lot of white have many fans. 

But I love the mix with white also in winter and particularly with my pastel green cozy sweater. Layering with a crisp white button-down, this pullover shows to its advantage. Sneakers in white bring a sportive touch to this outfit.

There are many other ways to wear white in winter. How do you do it?

White and black combinations are classics. Bright and dark contrast very well and give excitement to outfits. These two colors fit very well together and can also be worn at every event. And since white and black stay tendentially classic, you can play with different style and sometimes feminine and sometimes sporty. Black and white together is timeless.

Favorite designer: Lena Hoschek

Berlin Fashion Week fall/winter 2015 is over and there was a lot to see on the official homepage and on various fashion blogs. Most of the outfits shown in Berlin are can be worn on the streets but they are not very trend setting. Young designers like Bobby Kollade showed very impressive work but the real trends are made in the backyards of the actual flipped out Berlin. Since it starts so early in the season, we can get inspired and actually wear the trends right now and don't have to wait for autumn.

My favorite designer who is also more traditionell and designs fashion for woman over 40, is Lena Hoschek. Her autum/winter collection which I liked a lot is again very beautiful.

For quite some time, the Austrian designer Lena Hoschek guarantees beautiful retro-fashion reminiscent of the 50s and 60s. Beehive-hairstyles and cat-eyes as well as jazz music frame this kind of fashion on the runway. Dresses, full skirts and wide pants made of tweed, tulle or lace warrant absolute femininity and a lot of elegance. Her designs are picture-perfect and ideal for the hourglass figure and also for the full figure.

Button-down coatdresses with a swinging skirt as well as elegant dresses you can war at the office but also for after work cocktails are in the center of her collection. Graphic or flower prints in strong colors like red, green and a lot of blue (theme of the collection is "L'heure Bleue - the blue hour") dominate. Extraordinary is the traditional last look, a very opulent floor-length bride's gown.

How to wear white in winter 3

Here comes my advice for a weekend city stroll. If it's not so cold, a warm knitted poncho comes in handy. I love my thick one with a big rolled neck. Unfortunately, it is difficult to get it on and off, since there is this turtleneck which can ruin hair and makeup. Therefore, a visit of a cafe or restaurant is not recommended. However, warm boots with big socks keep your feet warm, no matter how long the walk takes.

How to wear white in winter 2

Today it's white again. I like neutral colors like light brown or tan a lot. These colors go wonderfully with white. I also like to mix delicate fabrics with chunky knits. Here I combined the pleated maxi skirt of fine polyester with a chunky cable knit sweater. The white down jacket complements the rest of the outfit and keeps us warm.

How to wear white in Winter 1

Today I am starting a series on how to style the trend White in Winter. This color is supposed to be not a color but considering it as a neutral tone. Normally, it's getting real cold where I live but this year is different. So I take the opportunity to often wear the most radiant color which brings other colors to a glow. 

In today's combination the white wool coat is very dominant. I love white jeans in winter and in summer. The loose snuggle sweater with bat sleeves and turtleneck as well as the tall suede boots give me a cosy feeling. Golden jewelry and the gold of the bag let the outfit shine all day. 

Tomorrow I will show you my look 2 with white.

How to style grey culottes

Today I loved this trendy and comfortable outfit. Since it is cold outside, the mid-length wide pants together with the knee-high boots are cosy. I prefer boots with high heels together with mid-length skirts or pants, because the look gets more elegant. To go outside I combined a warm belted coat and a hat, everyhing in grey with black accessoires. Red lipstick make the outfit complete. .
