Following the red Thread: The “Clarice Dress” by The Seamstress of Bloomsbury

After spending summer in the countryside, I’m enjoying autumn in the urban jungle. As much as I like the country life, at some point I always miss the window shopping, the strolling around the beautiful boulevards, as well as elegant dinners. I love the busy places, the many cafĂ©s and even the rush of the big city. So it’s time to match my outfit to the city life, again. For this, I not only choose classy 40s cuts, but also the colour of love. Therefore, “Clarice” by the Seamstress of Bloomsbury is a perfect choice.

The cut of the 40s inspired dress is very flattering and has a lot of lovely details like the buttons or the authentic collar. My favourite parts of the dress are, however, the long puff sleeves. Moreover, I love the feeling of the high-quality crepe de Chine fabric on my skin which flutters so wonderfully in the autumn wind.

As it was a bit cold outside, I was wearing a chic black blazer on top of the “Clarice Dress”. Rose earrings by Glitter Paradise and a vintage handbag match the look perfectly, while a small hat, nylong gloves as well as stockings by Secrets in Lace finish the 40s inspired outfit.

Dressed like this, I visited the beautiful city FĂĽssen in the very south of Bavaria. This isn’t a large city, however, it has its very own charme. If you are in FĂĽssen, you should also visit Neuschwanstein Castle, which is just around the corner.
