COZY KNIT AND NEW BEGINNINGS

Written by Nicky Inside Out on January 3, 2016. Posted in Fashion, Uncategorized. No Comments on COZY KNIT AND NEW BEGINNINGS

The new year is here and first of all I want to wish you all a great 2016 and thank you for sticking with me for almost two years now. It’s been two years full of changes both with blogging and with my personal life. As you know, and for the ones who don’t know, in 2015 a lot happened. Becoming a mother received all my attention but also we got engaged and finally moved from London to Amsterdam.

Due to circumstances, I had to leave my blog a bit behind but I knew this was going to change. In 2016 we have a wedding to organise in Italy and I intend to focus on making Amsterdam my new ‘home’, redecorating our apartment and potentially buying a bigger one but most of all taking blogging to the next level, focusing on it full time together with taking care of little baby Emma Maaike.

We are working on a brand new website releasing soon which I am super excited about, I will be based in a new workspace this week at #workmode, we have new new exciting projects lined up, I am planning to attend London and Milan fashion weeks in February and I will share all this with you daily on the blog and on my socials!

I am very excited about these new beginnings but for this weekend, I am still cozying up at home in my current favourite chunky knit, snuggling my baby who is fighting her first cold and browsing through the winter sales in front of the fireplace.

LAYERING GAME #1

I love experimenting seasonal trends and love the beginning of fall so we can start layering.. I thought, why not trying something different this time? – The next post will be the second episode. I was inspired by the long lines the designers introduced for this and next season so I paired this sleeveless knit vest for the lenght and versatility. This grey knit was one of my favorite finds in Zara last year and still going strong. The chunky knit works well for the skinny jeans and the vest underneath wore it over skinny jeans gives that dress-over-pants vibe. Finally the blush ballet pumps add a feminine touch.

I also just recently layered this over-sized sweater with a longer shirt underneath and distressed boyfriend jeans for a more casual look but yet cool for a weekend look around Amsterdam. See it on my instagram here.

A long layer wore ‘underneath’ may sound a little over the top, but paired with casual pieces defenetely made it more ‘me’.

[Personal Outfit] HAND-KNITTED KNIT

Nothing better than jumping into the new season wearing wool with character! This colour pop cuff unisex knit by Sheep of Steel is the cosiest piece of my wardrobe at the moment and I intend to make it my winter ‘Linus Blanket’, from jumper to shoulder and vice versa.

Homemade Feel? Yes, Please!

We have seen designers having Fall ’14 craftwork spirit all toned up from Prada goat-hair pardonable seam details, to Celine’s unfolded sleeves and flared knitted pants to the J. Altuzarra’s gracefully hand-woven dresses. My new entry is a unique slice of fall hand-knitted in the UK. And who better than the Brits? Italians might know their pasta but let’s face it, these peeps know their knits!
