The New Neutral: Tan. Or Is It Cognac?
I have this theory that there is always one leading neutral colour in fashion. Often, it’s beige. Recently, I think it’s been – at least in certain circles – a shade not traditionally considered a neutral: very pale blush pink. At the moment, I’m feeling tha..
Mules, the Unlikely Fashion Favourites
A mule – not the most attractive name for a shoe, is it? And generally, I think the style matches the name in its (lack of) attractiveness. I’ve never been a fan: mules remind me of pictures of perfect retro housewives and boudoirs and Barbies. Or, if they a..
Gingham is the New Floral
Usually I start my trend-led posts with something like: „I’ve always loved this or that and now, it suddenly happens to be in fashion. Hallelujah!“ Gingham is different. I don’t think I can truthfully claim to have been a life-long fan of the pattern: it has..
How to Wear a Kimono in Two Ways
Despite my aversion to capsule wardrobes, I’m very much in favour of only buying stuff you really, really like and then wearing said stuff to death. Where I believe I differ from the majority of people is that when I say this, I’m not only thinking of your b..
A Non-Capsule Wardrobe
Capsule wardrobes are as ubiquitous as avocado toasts recently (or chia puddings, for that matter), everyone and their pet iguana is doing it. If you don’t spend your days on Instagram, let me try to be helpful and recap: capsule wardrobe is a limited collec..

What to Wear to Meet the President
If you’re an Estonian, the Independence Day reception will need no introduction. If you’re not, let me quickly fill you in: it’s the event hosted by the Estonian President every year on 24 February. There are hundreds of guests (ministers, ambassadors, artis..
Red Shoes and Failing at Life
I’m behind with everything – with life and work, with blogging, with reading, with sleep, even with reacting to people’s comments, for which I sincerely apologise. The universe seems to be against me as well, with the trains not showing up, planes missed and..
Love Stories Lingerie: A Bra Solution
Considering that I’m obsessed with an extremely wide variety of things – books, skincare, impractical dresses, strange perfumes, stews, Persia, stickers, biathlon and Tallinn sea views, to name a few – it’s a small miracle that I don’t really care about ling..
Winter Whites To Wear Now*
For me, January is the hardest month to dress for. It’s cold, which is an issue in itself, there is nothing in the shops and all the winter clothes I own seem to automatically lose all their appeal the very moment the New Year starts. I don’t want cosy knits..
