Remember I told you in one of my previous posts (here) that I was having a denim jacket painted? Well here is the result, its 'll about Barbie! I know it may come across as really kitsch but isn't fashion all about combining kitsch, chic and neutral colours?
Honestly, when I saw the result my first reaction was "OMG this is awesome" but people would give me quizzing looks. But, I couldn't care less, I totally love the jacket and there are many outfits I will wear it with. And YES, in case you were wondering, I was a huge Barbie fan as a little girl, although, back then, I'd give my Barbie a Britney shave...
At the weekend, I thought to shoot this outfit with a different background. I think you can already spot the Beetle Oldtimer on the photos. The Beetle is actually my favourite car and it's simply a classic, just like the Birking bag! A must have if you're a fashion and adventure lover! I jumped on the occasion to do a vintage type outfit shoot next to an old-timer in the Luxemburgish countryside.
As my jacket does now have a vintage, old school appearance I paired it with silver & golden platforms and skinny jeans. Of course, not to be forgotten the vintage style Rayban sunnies.
I just realised that this post is really all about vintage: the car, the jacket , the sunnies… actually not my usual style. My next outfit will take us back to the present, promise!
