Since I think it is appropriate time for making the statement that christmas time is almost here I have decided to post this article. And also since christmas parties season just started - here are some ideas what to wear for christmas parties. And what you should wear? Something red, something sparkly a something gold. 

Well, since I am going back to work routine (I´ve got new job) I was doing my research about appropriate and stylish work outfits and create some outfits for you.

This free month was so relaxing for me, I was spending tim with my dog, finally made time for tiding up my apartment, did some shopping, start working out again and catching up some TV shows (Did you saw The Bold type?) It was such amazing time! Sooo...back to the reality! It is time for work! 

In this way I am cheering myself up to go to work again by shooping new work clothes.

 I bought two blouses from ZARA (here) on a sale and today I am going to buy simple black pants äbasic piece of every business outfit). Btw ZARA, Bershka and Stradivarius have amazing business clothes for good prices.

 First month is hard beacuse you are totally out of money but it is also importnat to make good first impression so you should invest some money into buying new clothes.

*""The Bold Type" is inspired by the life of "Cosmopolitan" editor in chief, Joanna Coles. The show is a glimpse into the outrageous lives and loves of those responsible for a global women's magazine. Their struggles are about finding your identity, managing friendships and getting your heart broken, all while wearing the perfect jeans to flatter any body type."

When you are choosing your work outfit you can be more formal if your job requiers that - heels, sophisticated skirts, blouse in calm colours, not much jewellery (see examples below), or you can be more free - flat shoes, be more colorful and so on. 

Do not forget that you outfit have to be comfortable for you. Otherwise you will bee constatly checking your skirt, your blouse and so on. You will be spending 8 hours a day at work, so it is pretty much important feel good and self confident in your clothes. 

Personally simplicity will win for you every time. 

 Never wear:

1. Ripped jeans

2. Sexy short skirts or revealing clothes (sher blouses)

3. T shirt with offensive messagese

4. Strong perfume

5. Too much colours

6. Dirty clothes or shoes(!)

                                             

                                               

      

P.S: Be more organized and buy a diary! (Here or here).

Po pozretí dokumentu o módnom dome Balmain, som ani len netušila čo sa pod touto módnou značkou skrýva. Mala som matné tušenie o spolupráci Balmain x H&M, ale to bolo všetko čo som o tomto módnom fenoméne vedela. Povedala som si že je načase sa začať vzdelávať v obasti módy a zistiť čo sa pod jednotlivými niekoľkokrát omieľanými menami skrýva. Najviac odporúčam dokumenty - Dior a ja, Versace a film September issue.

O značke Balmain

Módny dom s názvom Balmain založil v roku 1945 francúzsky dizajnér Pierre Balmain, ktorý otvoril štúdio v Paríži. Predstavil svoju zbierku 12. októbra ešte toho istého roku zloženú z  jednoduchých zelených, hnedých, červených a levanduľových textílií, rovnako ako z rafinovaných línií odevov.

(see more at:http://en.vogue.fr/vogue-list/thevoguelist/balmain-/965)

Balmain si pripísal slávny "New Look" a  svoju prvú zbierku (1945) na snímke v americkej Vogue použil ako dôkaz. Tieto návrhy ilustrovali ženskú siluetu s dlhým, zvonovitým a vysokým hrudníkom, úzkymi ramenami a úzkym pásom.

Základná silueta Balmain bola cez deň štíhla a úzka, večer doplnená širokou sukňou. Tiež sa spomína na jeho vynikajúce použitie vyšívaných látok na večer.

V apríli roku 2011 sa stal kreatívnym riaditeľom módneho domu Balmain  pomerne nezmámy a len 25 ročný Olivier Rousteing. Pre dom Balmain to znamenalo prevrat, ktorý však priniesol novú krv a  značné pokroky.

Najväčšou múzou  tvorby a života Oliviera je speváčka Rihanna.

Pomocou celebritných priateľov A-Listu, ako sú Kelly Rowland, Jennifer Lopez,  spomínaná Rihanna, Beyoncé, Justin Bieber, Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown a rôzne modelky vrátane Victoria's Secret modeliek, Rousteing pomohol značke Balmain byť prvou francúzskou značkou, ktorá presiahla milión followerov Instagrame.

Žena oblečená do značky Balmain je bojovníčka. Je silná, priebojná, sebavedomá. Šaty pre ňu slúžia ako rytiersky oblek, chráni ju pred svetom a ona má pocit, že dokáže čokoľvek.

Nemali by ste rovnaký pocit, keby ste si obliekli niečo podobné?

BALMAIN X H&M

H&M  spolupracovalo už s mnohými známymi značkami ako:

ale spolupráca s Balmain bola asi najpútavejšia:

 Lanvin x H&M, 2010

 Versace x H&M, 2011

Alexander Wang x H&M, 2014

Karl Lagerfeld x H&M, 2004

 Isabel Marant x H&M

Maison Martin Margiela x H&M

Stella McCartney x H&M, 2005

Roberto Cavalli x H&M, 2007

 Jimmy Choo x H&M, 2009

ale spolupráca s Balmain bola asi najpútavejšia.

Avšak dalo by sa povedať, že nebola až tak cenovo dostupná, cena šiat sa vyšplhala až na 399 dolárov.
