I think poorly of rules… at least in the matter of fashion. Particularly because in this respect we shouldn’t be constrained and dictated what is “in” and what is “out” but instead have fun to interpret rules for ourselves or break them. Being brave to try something new. Or how do you think trends are born?
Now, let’s rather be a trendsetter with the risk to play the wrong note once in a while instead of being one of the thousand fishes floating with the current. Socks in sandals are ugly? I’d say freaking cool! Tights under pants are a no-go? Um, I say go, go GO! A skirt over jeans can only look sh***? Not at all!
Even if some might find socks in sandals, tights under jeans and today’s outfit totally nuts and “man repelling” – and might being right with the latter – it’s completely fine. In the end fashion is a matter of taste just like many other things are. Essential is that the one sticking in an outfit feels 100% comfortable and who knows, maybe the next issue of Vogue predestines skirts over jeans as the next mega hype. Any maybe the ones finding it nuts right now, will walk around completely the same in half a year. Happy humpday, loves!
Von Regeln halte ich nicht viel… zumindest nicht in Sachen Mode. Besonders weil man sich diesbezüglich nicht einengen lassen sollte – sich nicht diktieren lassen, was «in» ist und was «out» – sondern einfach Spass daran haben, die Regeln für sich selbst zu interpretieren und zu brechen. Schlichtweg Neues zu wagen. Irgendwoher müssen neue Trends schliesslich auch kommen, oder?
Also, lass uns lieber Trendsetter sein, mit dem Risiko auch mal danebengreifen, statt einer der tausend Fische, die brav mit dem Strom schwimmen. Socken in Sandalen gehen gar nicht? Geht doch! Strümpfe unter Hosen sind ein No-Go? Ähm, ich sage go, go, GO! Und ein Rock über einer Jeans getragen kann nur sch*** ausschauen? Gaaaar nicht!
Und wenn auch einige Socken in Sandalen, Strümpfe unter Hosen und das heutige Outfit völlig meschugge und «man repelling» finden – mit zweiterem liegen sie vermutlich sogar richtig – dann ist das auch ganz ok so. Den schlussendlich ist Mode, wie so vieles andere auch, eine Geschmacksache. Hauptsache der, der im Outfit steckt, fühlt sich wohl. Und wer weiss, vielleicht erkürt die Vogue Röcke über Jeans schon in der nächsten Ausgabe als neuen Übertrend – worauf in einem halben Jahr jeder so herumläuft. Happy Mittwoch, ihr Süssen!

I saw this post and immediately fell in love. There is something about the combination of the rusty/autumn colours that just works so so well!
It was almost an aftersight and the last thing I noticed that you were wearing jeans underneath – and that’s what works best! It’s not completely obvious or in your face that your breaking apparent “rules”, but slips almost under the radar!
P.s – the shoes are just amazing. LOVE.
Wow.
Ganz, ganz schön.

Dein Outfit ist toll! Mir gefällt das Shirt gut, darf ich dich fragen welche Größe du genommen hast das es so sitzt! Würde es gerne bestellen.
Liebe Isabella,
Das Shirt trage ich in Grösse S. Ist gross geschnitten, darum sitzt es so schön locker.
Liebe Grüsse,
Michèle
I love it … good idea ..
Your styling is phenomenal!
Ich glaube, alles kann gut aussehen, wenn es richtig gestylt wird :)
dein Outfit sieht zum Beispiel total toll aus! Es animiert mich total, auch mal was neues auszuprobieren. Das wird auf jeden fall ein Must do für die Sommerferien!

Wow was für ein Interessanter Look! Ich finde das gut so, dass du dafür stehst, dass jeder tragen kann was er möchte. Schließlich sollte acuh jeder sein können, wie er möchte – die Kleidung gehört dazu, denn sie ist ein wichtiges Ausdrucksmittel :) Finde ich super, den Rock einfach über dei Jeans zu ziehen!
Gorgeous look. I’ve been known to rock a skirt or dress over pants on occasion. The colors in this outfit are divine.

I’ve just recently discovered of your site (what?! I know). I adore your style and a huge fan. May I ask what’s the idea behind the name “The Fashion Fraction”?
Wow! You’ve mastered this look so well! You surprise me every time (in a best way possible) with your unique sense of fashion. The photos are amazing and I love the warm tones of your look. Just perfect.
Rafi from http://theneckband.blogspot.com
Totally agree with you there, girl! :)
It should come as no surprise that I think anyone should be able to wear what they themselves think is their style. And if it fits with them.. and they feel better.. all the more power to them! :)
Cool outfit, btw! :)
in love with this, and I totally agree. Do whatever you like! :*
Ich finde die Kombi klasse, macht den Rock total lässig ♥ http://cosmicconfession.blogspot.de/

I agree with you about rules, it’s good to break them and to try new things out of our comfort zone. I never thought jeans under a skirt would look so cool, you look gorgeous ! Love your style :)

I guess, with this post, your goal was to change people perceptions about a skirt over pants, well you did ! I always thought it was a big “no wayyyy !”, so early 00s, and boom, here you are, wearing skirt and pants together and the surprising thing is I really like this outfit ! :O
http://i-think-its-today.blogspot.com
Wirklich ein sehr guter Text, auch wenn ich persönlich nicht der Fand von Hosen unter Röcken bin. Aber ich teile deine Meinung voll und ganz, denn Mode kennt keine Regeln :)
Die Brille ist übrigens wirklich schön, die würde ich mir wahrscheinlich auch kaufen :)
Liebe Grüße,
Lisa
You look great, you pulled it off perfectly. Nothing wrong with breaking the rules. My favorite rule to break is wearing white all year long!

I remember this trend of wearing a dress over jeans appeared in the 90-s, but it seemed so weird then. Now, this look of yours seems like the coolest thing I’ve ever seen! By experimenting in fashion we grow in our personal style and our perception of life as well!

Nope this is one of my worn outfits, just as (almost) all of the looks shared here. And I know that some people might don’t like it but hey, who cares if I feel comfortable :-)
Note: Ok, sometimes I’m cheating regarding the heels. I always have flats around to change after some time or while in the office for example :-P
This is so true! Fashion is all preference. And I love the outfit!

I can’t imagine anyone every sticking you in a fashion box without you kicking your way out. Regardless if you’re breaking the rules because the style comes to you naturally or you’re trying to get out of your own repetative way of dressing or possibly just wanting to be provacative for the hell of it…..do it and do it well.
