week 5 archive looks: the snowball effect





i start the day with a top and trousers (or skirt or jumper dress). then time goes by and i start realizing that i won't be warm enough wearing just that. so i add another layer. then more time goes by and i start realizing that i won't be warm enough with that one layer. so i swap it out for (what i hope is) a warmer layer. then even more time goes by and i start realizing that the warmer layer won't do the trick. so i put both layers on. i will stop there ... for now.

with the exception of the shoes, cardi, puffer liner, hat and bag, i am wearing rundholz dip 217. the shoes are rundholz dip 222, the cardi is rundholz black label 222 and the puffer liner is rundholz 219. the hat and bag are off label (not rundholz).

Your reaching for this green (it was called haricot last summer, not sure for 2017), makes me think of spring and the greens and colors that will be emerging. And along with those thoughts, I was curious what your take on Dip ss23 is? There is SO much color, especially for Dip, and often mixed together. While I admire the silhouettes and appreciate the colors as colors, I'm not too sure I would wear them myself, or at least not often. But perhaps it is just too early to be thinking of those vibrant hues. I am curious what your thoughts are as you peruse the coming SS23 Dip collection: is here a hue(s) you're leaning towards, or warming to?

the dip collection for the upcoming spring/summer, in particular the styling, "blew my mind". as someone who dresses in a monochromatic fashion, i couldn't imagine myself wearing a mixture of colours (any colours, let alone bright colours). at the same time, i couldn't picture myself wearing the collection in a monochromatic fashion. the latter thought was a surprise. after all, last spring/summer, i wore the gecko green head to toe. maybe it is just bright colour fatigue. i have yet to figure my way out of this interesting situation that i find myself in with the dip collection. in the meantime, my eye has strayed ... over to the mainline collection.
