Very long sleeves.

Posted on September 19, 2014 by stylepointofview

Just a quick post in order to point out something I noticed on the site “& Other Stories”.

&Other Stories fuzzy sweater bright pink

In the knitwear section they have a few interesting tops, well, the tops are quite simple actually, what I love though are the sleeves, they are very long:

: &Other Stories turtle neck cashmere sweater grey

: &Other Stories round neck cashmere sweater plum

Apart from the fact they are going to be warmer and also, women with long arms (like me!) will appreciate, I think they look really cool, because the sleeves are too long!

Erin O’ Connor: the new Audrey

Posted on September 18, 2014 by stylepointofview

As much as I have always thought Audrey Hepburn was a very stylish lady, I do realise she is from another era.
Nowadays, there aren’t many women who have that “allure”. But a few are capable of style, I am not talking only clothes here of course. I mean a woman who can walk out the door to go to the supermarket, in t-shirt, jeans and a pair of flats, and still manage to have a “je ne sais quoi” which makes her stand out in the crowd.

A woman who can, is Erin O’ Connor. I only know her from pictures, and I do admit to liking women who don’t look too girly. This is obviously my personal taste.

Have a look though, here are some pictures…

Yes, I know, she is a model. But this isn’t about height or beauty. She doesn’t meet conventional beauty standards. Ok, she is tall, but you can’t see that in the pictures. She definitely is thin though and that does help.

She has her own style and she is very chic indeed, whether she wears an evening gown or a t-shirt and jeans. That’s because clothes don’t make one stylish, one needs to be stylish herself. Good taste helps!!

Autumn shoes too…

Well, of course I am going to talk about shoes!
Shoes, these days, are “a girl’s best friends”, since we can’t really have diamonds anymore. Never actually been interested in diamonds to be honest, but shoes? Never have enough!!!

So, as I said in the previous post, autumn wear isn’t that exciting, in order to make it different, accessories are the way to go.

Ballerinas are going pointy this season, which is good, even if one wears flats, with that nice “extension” at the front, we will all be able to look taller and thinner! The colours are nice too, navy, grey and colours. I even like, for the first time in my life I think, the ivory ones, in fact, I really like them!
