Sneakers - Adidas Stan Smith

This picture was taken in my recent visit to Spain.

I styled this yellow flannel with a floral navy tee and some black tapered jeans. The colour of this flannel gives of quite a summery vibe which is what I was going for. Neutral colours go well with this flannel as it is very bright. Too much colour can make you look like a walking rainbow.

Other ways to dress this flannel could be by wearing it over a hoodie. I previously styled this outfit with a black hoodie and black jeans which also looked great.

Spain has a vibrant feel in terms of their fashion sense. Everything is very colourful and full of floral prints which I admire.

I find it fascinating that a persons fashion sense can change by visiting different countries and absorbing different cultures. I like to take inspiration from different countries I visit. I found that the fashion sense in Italy is quite subtle, yet still looks elegant.

Let me know what you think about this outfit in the comments below.

Until next time!

More Margiela than a Maison

Maison Margiela Sweater

I am drawn to clothing with different textures as it brings out the outfit and stands out from a standard boring grey jumper. It helps break up the outfit and gives a better aesthetic. This jumper is extremely well made. Looking from another persons perspective, it looks different yet wearable.

I was looking for this jumper in every city I visited whilst on my year abroad. Some staff members looked at me with a confused face, I didn't know if it was my accent or the simple fact that they hadn't heard of the sweater.

A$AP Rocky had been seen wearing this exact garment which may have been the reason why it was selling out faster than usual. He completed the look by wearing the matching shorts which were included in the SS15 collection.

After this jumper was released by Maison Margiela, many other designers took inspiration and started to make their own version. However none were as good as the original.
