I am an Instagram maniac and I openly confess that I spend too much time on filtering my feed. But it’s irresistible, when you have so many great accounts to follow! If you are ready for a dose of beautifully curated walls, inspiring photos and delightful shots – see my July recommendations!

@everyoutfitonsatc / I love Sex and The City so much. When I discovered the account which thrives to document every outfit of Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda and Samantha, I just couldn’t resist following it! The feed comments beloved lewks of my favourite New Yorkers with irony, but still, it’s a great Instagram find (and I guess they love Miranda’s iconic, denim overalls “styled” with a puffer coat from season 2 just as much as I do).

@monamoore /  Luxury concept store in Venice, CA, which doesn’t take fashion too seriously. Mona Moore account shows not only the clothes (a lot of hote Haider Ackermann pieces), but also the unique attitude the store and #MonaMooreGirls have. Oh, and they nearly broke the internet with their showroom photo of Vetements‘ high, high, high Manolo Blahnik boots from the latest season.

@resee_paris / I wrote a piece on Re-See’s phenomen here. After reading it, follow their moody account – it’s filled with rare, vintage pearls by Tom Ford, Nicolas Ghesquiere for Balenciaga and Celine. Tres chic, and quintessentially Parisian!

A Re-See

IMG_1280

It’s not Alessandro Michele, the designer behind Gucci, who made everybody fall in love with vintage fashion and nostalgia. And definitely, he wasn’t the first. Re-See is the result of long term collaboration between Sofia Bernardin and Sabrina Marshall, two fashion veterans who previously worked at prestigious Vogue and super chic Self Service magazine. One day, Sabrina and Sofia decided to bring the fashion-obsessed people their own, virtual boutique, offering a beautifully curated selection of authentic, pre-owned pieces in the perfect condition. The Paris-based on-line store has some real treasures, which appear to be fashion history’s most covetted pieces – like the super rare Goa bag by Hermes and a impressive collection of Nicolas Ghesquiere’s favourite pieces from his tenure at Balenciaga. Lately, the founders of Re-See dropped a wide range of Yves Saint Laurent from the 60’s and 70’s (the famous, hand-embroidered “Ballet Des Russe” gowns are here, too – Vyshyvanka by Vita Kin, take notes). However, what really makes Re-See so appealing is their way of presenting these one-of-a-kind, pristine condition clothes. Their signature, fashion editorial style and styling tips make buying luxury, yet vintage pieces a new experience.
