.. all of those topics are very actual lately.. like the question of life and death 😬

Why is so important to look EXPENSIVE.. I wouldn’t wear ugly things, but there are days when I personally want to wear some cute rags (maybe even a bit trashy looking), which I think is like a lovely bohemian style.

Sometimes some clothes or accessories have the history and emotional value, which makes it expensive, even, if this may look cheap for someone. I think it’s OK to wear rags and some things look even more expensive, when these are bitten by the teeth of time – like my over 40 years old handbag (which actually wasn’t very cheap..)

Anyway, here I have an experimentation, how to put together and make cheap priced second hand rags to look more expensive. I think these look good as separate items too, but I mixed and matched these a little bit with expensive belt (Gucci Blondie Interlocking wide belt from Farfetch – which probably may be classified under quiet luxury items, as the logo there is quite modest and very sophisticated) and Tommy Hilfiger shoes, no, cheap shoes + expensive looking, but cheap Mango bag (I think it’s a bit similar to Ferragamo style 🙄). The shoes I bought last year as the last pair, from a random store, but I found the same shoes today and bought a spare pair, just for case..

This dress just got my eye in the rag store and it seems to be Russian design, brand Glenfield. And I added here a blouse (also from rag store, actually from the department of bigger ladies, size 40, brand named Vintage Stories). For me it’s like a kimono style jacket and I have such a weakness towards bird prints.
