As broke as I am these days I have to appreciate the little things much more. Like today when I went shopping the only thing I would let myself buy was a pair of gray ribbed tights. I bought a pair similar to these only a couple of weeks ago, but only after two times use they got a hole in the crotch. The ones I got today was the pair I wanted to begin with, but they sold out for my size almost right away. Today I found one hidden between all the rest. The goal was a look like the ones from Chloè above.

I discovered something new today when buying these tights (yes, I´m milking it for all I can) and that is a fabric called modal. It´s supposedly made out of cellulose and is a lot like cotton, only it doesn´t pill, shrink, fade or any of that annoying stuff. These tights are made mostly of modal and if it´s true that they don´t pill I´ll be so happy, cause that´s my biggest issue with thick tights.

I saw similar tights at MyTights for those of you looking for something like this. (Thanks Kate.)

I´ve been remodeling the secondhand stores list a bit. It´s been annoying me for a long time that several were missing pictures, but now all the stores have pictures and I´ve even changed the pictures of a bunch of them. I´ve also added more about my personal experiences with the shops. One thing I realized when going through the list is that I´ve forgotten how great many of these stores are! So make sure to look at the complete list cause they´re placed completely randomly.

I´ve also finally come around to collect all my favorite spring looks in one place and started my list of what I want for spring, even though there isn´t much there yet.

I´ve got more changes planned around here. The layout is at least going to be changed as it only was something my boyfriend put together for me when I moved the blog a long time ago. If you´ve got any suggestions for other changes, please let me know!

I´ve noticed an extensive use of clear plastic in the spring collections on everything from accessories to clothes. I don´t know how to feel about it yet though. I remember having bags, jewelry and shoes made out of plastic like this back in the 90´s and that´s probably the reason for my scepticism.

Colder weather and busier days often leads to less variety in my outfits. I´m hoping to get my inspiration back soon. And I know, I´m wearing this scarf so much that I have to get something similar so I can change once in a while. I just find myself so comfortable in this scarf and these outfits. Usually jeans and t-shirt outfits have me feel sloppy, but these days it´s what I feel the best in.
