september white

It was a calm and sunny September day, JJ and I managed to meet up, she with her camera and I with my outfits. I am exceptionally glad that I have a photographer friend like her because it is exceptionally nice to be able to document one's everyday style.

Right now time has passed and it is officially October (already a while), but I'm posting old stuff. Yes, I feel sort of guilty. And YES, white was the IN color this summer! I saw every other fashion magazine editorial doing an all white look and watched every other cool girl rocking a white head-to-toe from europe to asia. I was, I admitt, obsessed with it, too.

White is just such a clean, pure and simple color. White cools down the summer heat, at the same time, it miraculously lights one up during the first weeks of autumn. I paired my nude pointed pumps with the White zara coat, a lacey top and some crocheted shorts. I was annoyed by the fact that I did not possess enough pure white items. I mean, everyone of us has a white tee, a white shirt or a white something, some basics really, but white is a difficult color that comes in way too many shades. There's the milky white, the blueish white, the transparent kinds... I need some acrylic white, a white so white and so pure, there's no any other color inside it. Guess I need to keep looking for them.

More posts are coming. There were more shoots done in September.

black is the new black

Listening to "Ixode" by Zola Jesus, and posting a new look shot in my backyard, ...life is enjoyable. Currently really obsessed with Zola, with her strong and unique voice, with her ghost-like music. I think I just got tired of mainstream stuff, and as a wanna-be hipster like me, I do seek for some infamous songs.

Now about the weird format of these photos below. Yet, I'm almost too ashamed to admit, but I did cut them, as you most probably have noticed. Well, to be honest, my backyard isn't the right place to shoot my looks, but some random shots are always better and more natural then the intended-to-look-great shots. So ignore the unmeaningful background and the two different sizes of the photos below.

Oh and I must tell that the black cardigan plus black maxi dress look was also "can't-be-more-random" really. You can plan your life, but can't plan the unexpected surprise you'll face, just like you can plan a look, but cannot plan your mood. Dress randomly more often! It makes no sense, it's fun.

Remember to have fun in these last days of summer-sun.

And more looks coming!

It has been a while. And it's about time... Here it all goes again, a new blog, a new journey. This is VELVET MOUSSE, a blog about my personal style, travel notes and inspirations to share with. Expect loads of twisted style, mix-and-matched outfits, fashion accessories and more.

I am a 19 year old student living in Vienna. I'm a fashion lover and a future designer. I speak more than 4 languages and there might be bilingual blogging coming soon. Currently I'm obsessed with rocker-chic, with grunge and everything inbetween. Do be prepared for some more glamour and elegance, though. Trends and moods come and go, what stays chic is one's always classy attitude.

VELVET MOUSSE is by no means a "teach-you-how-to" blog, it's a private documentury of my way to dress, it's a platform to get my thoughts straight. Watch me, grow with me.
