Being creative


Today was general strike day in Greece against austerity measures and my eldest son was a bit feverish.For the rest it was a typical warm spring day. I wore a dress I find a bit difficult to style. It's light cotton and has nice batik like pattern with 70s vibes but the upper part is very unflattering. So I have to hide it under shirts, cardigans or jackets.

I'm trying every day to give a creative twist to my outfits and I admit I have no idea what's hot right now in trends. I have a wardrobe based on thrifting and sewing from vintage 70s/90s Burda magazines. Sometimes I worry that I'm going too far from mainstream way of dressing and add a few more basic pieces to the picture.

Do you think I'm going too far? Do you feel this way sometimes? What do you do then?
