Regardless of which time we live in, retro clothing’s had always something special. These clothes amaze us, which makes us to wear them years after they were in vogue.
I personally love to wear „really retro” clothing. I call so for example my sweater with a Mickey Mouse print on it which I got from my mother who was wearing it in her twenties. Or the flared jeans that she wore when she was around 18.  But also the flared sleeved top, I got during high school. To me these are the „really retro” clothing.
People who are wearing clothes that they like, and are not really intereseted in what is actually in fashion, know the feeling when their clothes or accessories suddenly get popular again. This is the moment when people start to wear the same kind of things. However fashion-conscious people will get rid of these items once they are not modish anymore.
If you would like to have some retro clothing but you are not lucky enough to have one from your parents for example, you can choose one from the offer of the stores. They usually have something retro. 

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5

At StyleWe or at JustFashionNow you will find some unique clothing. For example some retro swimwear or an off the shoulder peasant top which you can pair with normal or high waisted jeans. There are different styles available, tops with ruffled flared sleeve, with frill sleeve or with embroidered print. (You can visit their blog to find tips like "How to Wear a Beanie For Guys".)

What do you think about retro clothing? Do you have some „really retro” pieces too? I am looking forward to reading your comments.  :)

Fun for kids and grownups

Inflatable products are always fun whether you are young or old. They have a soft surface which helps to prevent getting injured during play.
They offer fun especially in summer, or if you are lucky enough to live somewhere where it is always warm, then the whole year.
There are a lot of different products that you can find in the offer of inflatable plays, slides are just one of them. For a normal slide you will need something to slide down, for example a castle but by the slip and slide version you just need a flat surface, some water and the fun can begin. Maybe this is the simplest way to have fun with inflatable products and this might be also the most safe of all.

 
Castles are popular amongst others at birthday parties. They are mainly for kids but not only; adults can try them too (considering the rules and weight limit of course). Jumping up and down, falling, then jumping again offers not only fun, but it also keeps you fit. There is no need to go to the gym, when you just had fun in an inflatable castle.
 I remember that years ago a big green dragon appeared on the backyard of a neighbour’s house. They celebrated the birthday of a little girl. There were some kids music on and they had a great time playing around.
This PVC inflatable jumping castle on the picture has a cute Dalmatian design but there are many different kind of castles that you can find.

 
If we are talking about inflatable products, we just can’t leave inflatable bubble balls out. A big ball has a diameter of 70cm and is ideal for playing soccer. 

Find some inflatable bubble ball buy some fun plays or discover inflatable water slides for sale and share your experiences with me.

Have you tried any inflatable play yet? Which would you be the most excited to try out in the near future? As always, please feel free to leave a comment below.

Outfits not just for the office

Office looks are not just for the office, it is a clear thing. They can be worn on a normal day as well, of course not on the lazy ones. Elegant blouses, button down shirts, classic black trousers or skirts, costumes can be paired with usual clothes. Combining a white shirt with jeans, or a sweater with black trousers creates your own look

The pieces below are from ToSave, an online brand from China. ToSave.com offers products in lots of categories which includes Fashion & Clothing, Jewelry & Watches or Shoes & Bags. Their range of clothes is not so wide but all of them are nice with an amazing price. They offer free shipping for any product and guarantee best price with a new function. That means if you found the specific product somewhere else cheaper, than you can add the URL of this in the box of „Price Match” and ToSave will review the issue.

The deep pink chiffon blouse below with short sleeves lets you create a cute outfit. Its colour is lovely and the beaded details make it look special. It has a small button on the back and it’s true to size.

 
The lovely white button down blouse becomes unique because of the details on its collar. The material is nice but the size is a little bit large for an XS.

 
At least a lovely lace lingerie set which is unfortunately too big for me.


What do you think about the items I chose? Do you like office look? Are you wearing it outside the office too?  As always, please feel free to leave a comment below.

Lots of love,
