Daily inspiration, personage

One of my “idols” from when I was young, a long time ago, was Buster Keaton. I realise that this might be an odd post amidst all home furnishing, fashion, food & outdoor posts. Buster was an American comic actor & was best known for his silent movies. He had a deadpan look – no matter in what situation he ended up. I don’t think that Buster Keaton was his real name but that wasn’t important – his performance made an impression on me. I think his era was around 1920 – 1935 maybe, when he was productive & recognised for his talent as actor. One of his movies was The General & around 2000 this film was ranked as the 15th best of all times. He disappeared out of my life, when I got older but I never forgot his expression or his performance. Comic but in a sad way!

I stumbled upon this image recently which reminded me about my upbringing which he was part of, in some way – thanks to my father who was a big admirer.

Daily inspiration, shades of grey

Light grey, dark plus darker grey, different lengths plus layer on layer – that’s incredibly stylishly or neat depending on the design. That the environment is suitable in grey & white with a brick wall behind makes it even more great.

Daily inspiration, boots

Time to put on the boots! Autumn brings so much nice things, not only beautiful colours, beautiful weather, cooler winds but also the need to put on slightly warmer cloths – and boots!

Daily inspiration, simple & neat

You don’t get that much colour when I post things about clothing. It’s usually more single coloured items but I guess that you aware of that by now. Here’s a nice image with a beige trench coat & scarf & black trousers with matching bag. The style I like!

Beige colours

I know many might feel that beige isn’t a particularly interesting colour & that’s ok. I myself often return to that colour both in terms of clothing but also in terms of images. I’ve chosen different images that goes towards beige, brown, sand-coloured, vanilla, light brown, camel – without a thought of anything else than this thing in common. From light tones to the darker ones. I hope you find something that inspires you 🙂
