I have recently been considering to add a bit more colour to my wardrobe, and these pictures are a great inspiration to do so. 
Karlascloset  (which I'm sure you all know) was one of the first blogs I started reading more than 4 years ago (omg, time flies by so quickly) and I think she has a great sense for colours, textures and shapes. Although she tends to feature a lot of outfits that would look just ridiculous on me, (and most people, in my opinion) I still admire her for her courageous style. And from time to time I get lucky and see something I can really adapt to my syle.
Too bad I'm on a shopping ban for scarves...

I'm such a bad blogger recently. Sorry!

It's partly because I'm feeling rather uninspired recently. I'm not sure whether this is due to the everlasting winter (I mean, there are only so many outfits you can build from jeans and a warm sweater) or to a general problem with deciding on what I want to wear.
I recently talked about style with some of my friends. Not in an abstract way like "what is good style versus bad style". But in terms of personal style. You know, that signature style some people seem to have and others are lacking.
Personally, I don't think I have a signature style yet. I'm still experimenting. Which is why one day you will find me wearing an all-black outfit topped off with lots of studs, claw bracelet and smokey eyes, while the next day I might be wearing a white lace dress with middle parted hair and hippie-esque accesoires.
Nevertheless I have recently been thinking that it would be a lot easier to dress, if I wasn't jumping through styles that much. Not to mention that, as you get older, you need to be more aware of what you want to express through your clothes.
I have been thinking about making a series of posts on this topic, and would love to hear what you think about that. Would you be interrested?

Wow, this must have been my longest written post ever ;)
