We are deeply in the winter season and this is my first post to show some of my seasonal outfits. At this time of the year we are mostly wearing and showing off different types of jackets, coats or long cardigans. I will try to show all my winter collection before the season will finish and become warm again. As you know my artistic vision won't let me show only the coats in the random order. Everything has to perfectly complement and blend together in the sophisticated way. I will pick some of additional accessories and other matching clothing to show an artistic combination and ready sets to go. In this weather is a competition between ladies about the coats, parka jackets, winter boots and matching handbag. Is all about it.
Today my pick is a long pink alpaca wool boucle cardigan from Italian Diesel brand. I have modify the coat and attached red natural fur racoon trim to give more character and edge. I have few of this trims in different colours and trying to decorate my other coats too.
Diesel is an Italian retail clothing company, located in Breganze, Italy. It sells denim, and other clothing and accessories. The clothing line has two different brands: Diesel and Diesel Black Gold. There's also a line for children, called Diesel Kid. The company is known for its surreal advertising campaigns. Since 2013 the creative director has been Nicola Formichetti.
Diesel founder Renzo Rosso began stitching jeans on a sewing machine at the age of fifteen. He used his mother’s sewing machine to produce low-riding, bell bottomed jeans, which he would wear himself and sell to his friends for five lira a piece. He later attended an industrial textile manufacturing college in Padua.
In 1996, Diesel opened large flagship stores in New York City, San Francisco, Rome, and London, and began to open other mono-brand stores for Diesel in order to augment its points of sale in department and other multi-brand retails stores.
Diesel founder Rosso began purchasing additional fashion companies in 2002, under the parent company Only The Brave, which Diesel was brought under as well. Companies purchased by Only the Brave included Maison Martin Margiela, Viktor & Rolf, Marni, and licensing company Staff International. In 2005 Diesel released the book “Fifty” upon Rosso’s fiftieth birthday, an illustrated history of the company, with a print-run of ten thousand.
Diesel's denim's products are produced exclusively in Italy, with much of its products produced by out-sourced factories. Its headquarters are in Breganze, and had twelve international subsidiaries as of 2005.
While the most popular Diesel apparel item has been denim wear, the company has expanded to include additional forms of clothing. The company has created leather jackets, women’s dresses, and other items.
In the 2000s, the company began to license its brand to other retail manufacturers, in order to create new product categories.

In the January is the annual winter sale in most of the places and I have visited my beloved Bicester Village. On my hunting trip I was wearing boyfriend style Birger et Mikkelsen lamb leather pants with MarksSpencer fuchsia sparkly jumper and Juicy Couture silk scarf covered in my Diesel alpaca long jumper. Followed by Claudie Pierlot Paris fringe bag and Miu Miu Pewter ankle diamonds boots.
I DON'T LIKE
SHOWING OFF
OR TRYING TO BE SEDUCTIVE.
I'M ALWAYS MYSELF.
I WAS TRAINED
ON THE JOB
DURING THE 60'S.
I'VE ALWAYS HAD
A CAREFREE ATTITUDE
AND A LUST FOR LIFE.
Claudie Pierlot
Claudie Pierlot has done everything in the fashion business:
Pattern maker, assistant designer to Jacqueline Jacobson at Dorothée Bis and designer at Printemps department store. In 1984, Claudie Pierlot created her own company "for the women of Paris." Success was immediate and proved unfailing. In 2009, Claudie Pierlot entrusted her company to Evelyne Chetrite, Judith Milgrom, Elie Kouby and Frédéric Biousse.
The big sister to Claudie Pierlot 's iconic Angel shoulder bag, the Angela is realised in more roomy proportions, making it perfect for daytime accessorising. Combining soft suede with snake embossed calfskin leather, this bag pays tribute to the label's renowned Parisian charm, working with its fringing for a vintage style that's equally easy going and elegant.
Marjan x Claudie Capsule Exclusive
Perfect proportions, pretty gusseted compartments, fringes, with inspiration from Marjan, the Claudie signature bag comes in two new versions. We see here the details of the range: a jewellery-like round chain with small links and a very Claudie-like tone-on-tone dotted lining.
In daring red or jet black, python-printed calfskin and Italian suede calfskin make for a statement piece. The silver stamped logo and the row of rhinestone lends it an 80’s twist. It is worn in the crossbody style or on the shoulder, day and night.
