since my mum’s family is originally from kitzbühel in
tyrol, i go skiing quite often. the past years i haven’t had much time and also
my ski equipment is super old. i have been wearing my snowboard pants for
almost 10 years now, my pants are super baggy from the time when i used to be a
fresh skater girl (yes i was!). also when i was younger i always shopped
online at blue-tomato. back then my
favorite brands were volcom, roxy and so on. i can still remember the day i
bought my first burton beanie! man i was proud. anyway, blue-tomato meanwhile
opened a shop in vienna but i started browsing through their current web
selection. When it comes to ski and snow wear I really like understatement with
a hint of colour. You know that also in “real life” (yeah! The mountains for me
as a city girl are NOT real life, it’s magic!) I don’t dress super colorful and
I like monochromatic looks. On ski stuff I really like different fabrics such
as shiny and matt materials, mixed with a bright colored helmet or gloves. here
are some things i’d love to wear roaring down the slopes.
as you know i am on a three months shop stop. let me just break it in the beginning: i cheated. when i went to madrid i had a little shopping spree with some other bloggers and fell in love with a pair of shoes and also a jacket. later my uncle paid them for me, but it’s still cheating i guess.
my conclusion? i have one more month to go, but instead of restraining myself so radically and then falling so deep, i want to adapt my shop stop to nisi’s who said in her 2013 resolutions post that she limits herself to buying 1 piece a month. anyway, i am really happy about the shoes i got for 25 € on the airport in madrid, i have been keeping an eye at them ever since they were in stores a few months ago.
that’s how i’ll style them as soon as temperatures go a little up:
