 Hi there. Are you in mood for another 'X ways to wear an Y item posts?' I hope you are because that's what we will be doing today and the item in question is my old pair of doctor Martens boots. Combat boots are trending right now. Now, the reason why I haven't picked up a pair  (or felt the need to) is because I already have everything I need in my closet: an old  pair of doc Martens boots. I bought this pair when I was an adolescent so that means....wait a minute and let me do the math. I'm 35 now, so that is twenty years. Why, why, time really flies doesn't it? Ten more years and this pair will be vintage.  Crazy to think that, isn't it? Naturally, in the twenty years I owned this pair, I wore them more than 20 times. However, I don't have all of those outfits photographed. Moreover, I decided to stick just with autumn and winter outfits. Believe it or not, I was also known to wear doc Martens in summer.

Hello! Today I'll show you how to style a summer dress in autumn.  I'm all about making the most out of my closet and wearing a summer dress in autumn is really not that hard- especially in transitional weather. I don't remember when, but some time ago I stopped dividing my wardrobe into 'cold' and 'warm weather' sections. I wear summer items all year around, I just make sure I layer them correctly. For instance, I often wear my summer dresses in colder months as well. I keep warm by pairing them with boots and warm outwear. It is as simple as that. This is what I wore when I visited Čapljina a few days ago.  Scroll down to see and read more.

Hello, there. Today I'll show you four Autumn outfits I wore. I think  they are a good representation of the kind of outfits I reach for when I'm in a hurry and want to be comfortable. Autumn is a great season in so many ways. Fashionwise, it leaves us with so many options. Layering is perhaps easiest in Autumn style, before it gets too cold. As easy as Autumn often feels in terms of getting dressed, sometimes I feel like making it even easier for myself so I choose cosy and comfortable outfits.
