April was about mixing patterns - florals, stripes, plaid! Lots of bright colors. And with cool temperatures, still sweaters and coats. I also had good times thrifting (you can find some of my treasures under the label "secondhand"). There are even more thrift finds in store. Sometimes, it's all about waiting for a perfect pairing ... and if there is anything I'm terrible at... it is waiting! Mom used to tell me "hold your horses", when I was younger. When I told Justin once that he got extra patience when he was born, he replied that I did not, and that I did not have the patience to wait for it. We both burst with laughter - that's how true it is! To tell me to "hold on" is the same as telling a May storm to hold on. There is only so much holding on we can do, guys. Honestly!
What's next then? I envision dresses! Lots and lots of dresses.
Cough, cough.
Actually, I don't even have "lots and lots of dresses"... yet.
But I have a few which I am so eager to style. So hold on tight, May, here I come!

We have similar post. I also did a recap. Natalia, what a lively mix of beautiful rainbow colors. I feel happy when I see your outfits. I cant wait to see what you have next!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely thing to say, Glenda! Thank you a lot for your supportive comments. I loved your recap! Happy almost May! :)
ReplyDeleteEach outfit looks so good, and you look perfectly comfortable and at ease in every one. I think that must be because you are comfortable in your own skin, it means you can wear anything and shine!
ReplyDeleteDresses... hmm, I feel there may be some thrifting missions coming up, to boost your supplies! Can't wait to see! xxx
Thank you for your warm, kind words dear friend! I am looking for dresses in thrift shops, so far got only one, but it's gorgeous. :) I also can't wait to wear them and photograph for my blog!! :)
DeleteYou sure had lots of gorgeous moments in April! I agree with Glenda and Curtise, there is something about you that inspires happiness and you do look so at ease with yourself that it really makes you shine, whatever you are wearing. The bright colours you tend towards really suit your personality as well as your colouring and I find that when I see your latest post pop up in my feed I get excited to find out what you are wearing.

Thanks, Suzanne! It's a high praise coming from you as artist! :)
DeleteGreat April outfits! Dresses sound fun! I love them as well. Can't wait to see what you can up with in terms of style next.
ReplyDeleteI hope the weather will cooperate with my plan for dresses. :)
DeleteWhat a colourful round-up. I agree with Curtise, you look so confident and at ease in all of them , like you absolutely love each and every combination. That is the sign of a great shopper! xxxxx
ReplyDeleteI wonder if it's every outfit I love or it's posing for Justin that I love? Hmmm :)
DeleteYou put an outfit together so well and look fab in so many different styles. I look forward to seeing your dresses. xx
ReplyDeleteSooo nice of you to say it, Jayne! Thank you :)
DeleteI'm still loving the retro orange and browns. Also like that black/white dotted with turquoise look. Really, all these looks are winners! I love thrifting, too. I am anxious to get back to it now that my broken ankle is healing up. I mentioned your blog in my Sunshine/Shine On Awards blog post today. Just wanted to let you know.

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your comment and mentioning my blog, I really appreciate, Debbie! I am glad that you like the polka dot blazer/floral tights outfit. I liked it in the mirror a lot, but I was not sure about photos. The orange/brown is one of my faves too!
DeleteOh, but Natalia,
ReplyDeleteYOU will. You will have lots and lots of dresses I see it in my very predictable crystal ball. You do not need patience to acquire a great wardrobe. You do need however, what you have. You have great style, and you will build on that. I cannot wait to see what you will be wearing in the next few months because certainly this month was a treat to see. Kisses, Elle

Elle, you are such a great supporting spirit! Thank you so much, my dear. I can easily imagine you having a crystal ball - you just might be looking in it right now! ;) Hugs!
DeleteWhat a lovely mix of colors Natalia!! You look smashing in all of the outfits. I can't pick a favorite dear, you look lovely in all of them!! XO.
ReplyDeleteWell that's the best when it's hard to pick a favorite, inn't? :) Thank you. Elsie!!
DeleteI especially love your green look with the striped jacket. Green suits you really well, also the green trench.
ReplyDeleteI am with you on dresses... really love them and I just hope the weather will get better here soon!
Have a lovely weekend,

Thank you, Beata! It's a great way to sum up a month for me - I can see all my little creations at once. :) Hugs to you too!
DeleteYou look fabulous in every single one! however, my very favorite is the one with the yellow scarf and yellow pants. I just love those colors on you and the beautiful contrast that yellow makes with black.
