I felt a connection to the details, which led me to make the purchase.

I tend to look at the details rather than the more obvious aspects like the design and silhouette when deciding whether to buy something. Especially since my interest in fashion started with vintage clothing, I often feel a sense of familiarity and make a purchase if the source of the information is related to details I'm familiar with.

Alem, simple yet with impressive detail and gimmicks.

These crown panto-style sunglasses feature a thick front frame and sharp, edgy cuts. The warm, clear color makes them easy to match with any outfit, and I particularly like the subtle details, such as the original engraving on the core wire, which adds a touch of sophistication to their simple design. I've owned them for about six months, and they're my most frequently worn eyewear.

Kiko Kostadinov's coat, which I love for its unbalanced look.

This is a mohair-blend wool coat I purchased in the Fall/Winter 2025 season. It features distinctive embroidery on the front and change buttons throughout, but its inspiration comes from military ceremonial jackets, giving it a certain elegance. I really like this imbalance. I also personally appreciate the high collar.
