Sometimes I wish I had been born in prehistoric times. When you had exactly one piece of clothing. A bear skin. For summer and for winter. As pajamas, or for an exciting date. Never an early morning clothing crisis. Or a financial crisis in the wallet. You may have heard it already:I'm not a real fashion doll. I like to look neat, but I'm not that crazy about shopping. Or good at choosing clothes that suit me. Fashion brand Miss Etam was founded precisely for women like me. Women who love fashion, but not necessarily haute couture. Where I used to walk around the Miss Etam stores with a bow, I am now happy that I found Miss Etam online. And to be honest… the brand has really undergone a change.

I admit it very honestly:I never used to shop at Miss Etam. The brand has not always had the best image. It was even known for being a bit dowdy, and boring. Well, then you haven't seen my wardrobe yet. It is bulging with jeans and plain shirts. As far as I'm concerned, dull and boring is no longer the right name. Rather basic and combination-oriented. You may not be completely convinced by the photos in the webshop, but I put it to the test to order something and see how it would fall. The big advantage of ordering Miss Etam online at Zalando is of course that it can be returned free of charge if it turns out not to fit. So I don't give a damn.
I had a few more items on my wishlist. One of them is an 'oversized blouse'. Also called 'long blouse', 'blouse tunic' or 'shirt dress'. I've been shouting about this for a while, but my hubby always has a kind of weird gurgling coming out of his throat. He doesn't like these things. No reason for me not to buy this one, but I want to mention it anyway. Why… you can read that further on 😉 .
In addition, I was looking for a nice denim jacket, jeans and some more. When it comes to jeans, I'm quite a tricky one. I once wrote a blog about wearing 'high pants when you're 40+' and that still applies. If you also want to have some trendy jeans, then that is not such an easy task. So a tough test for Miss Etam online… could I succeed there?
Anyway, I finally made my choice and just before we went on our boat holiday to Friesland everything was in place. Woopwoop, so in the suitcase with those tools! Of course after I tried on everything at home, because taking clothes that you are not going to wear is not really recommended when you go away by boat. You don't have that much storage space there anymore 😉 .
Now I'm also curious about your idea about this, that's why I took a few pictures. Let me know what you think?
My absolute favorite is the shirt dress from the Miss Etam online collection. I have tried everything to combine with. With a small strap, with a wider strap and just loose. I find the latter the best for me. I have also already worn high heels, a pair of sneakers and of course my flip flops.
You hear it already… I've worn it regularly. Hubby's very first gurgling has since changed from a kind of throat clearing to… 'When are you going to put that sexy shirt back on'.
Well… guys…
