I know… your work style is probably the last thing on your mind upon the arrival of the sweet summer season. But the truth is although we look forward to our days off, we still spend most of the summer Mondays-to-Fridays in the office trying to look smart and polished. Therefore we’ve brought together a variety of versatile pieces that instantly look office appropriate but also work with your weekend wardrobe.
August’s spring/summer collection is timeless and very modern, suitable for anyone appreciating clean forms and sustainability in clothing design. Brand puts a lot of thought into careful choice of natural materials. Selecting materials such as organic cotton, bamboo silk and lambswool that give pieces refined yet modern look.
Start with separates that pair up as effortlessly as they stand alone. My favourites? Extraordinary white shirt, classic pencil skirt, easy linen dress worn alone or layered over trousers and warm sweater are all the flexible fundamentals of a modern wardrobe.
LUCI sleeveless tunics and dresses in lightweight linen and cotton fabric blend are deliberately free of adornement, allowing focus to fall on their simple yet thoughtfully designed silhouette. Pieces are made from natural & eco-friendly materials or upcycled from old textile items and made in limited quantities in designer’s home studio in Slovenia.
White shirt is the quintessential piece of every work wardrobe. Whether standalone or paired with statement jewellery, classic, tailored shirts and blouses by Joanna Organisciak and August make any outfit.
Round everything by all-important finishing touches like simple jewellery piece that will shine even when we will already welcome autumn days, and handmade leather bag that will also accompany you at vacations. Voilà, 9 to 5 style recipe that looks polished without even trying.
Viva’s Macbook case is a smart and stylish way to transport your computer. Carefully handcrafted in Slovenia from genuine quality Italian leather and lined with wool felt, it will protect your laptop from getting scratches and look cool while you carry it around.
Sometimes all it takes is a special piece of jewellery that acts as the final touch on beautiful canvas, adds uniqueness, elegance or edge. Focused on handcrafted jewellery, Bepart studio translates clean lines and geometric shapes into delicate and contemporary jewellery. All the pieces are handmade using traditional goldsmithing technique and available in sterling silver or 14kt gold.
First signs of milder temperatures and longer days got us craving for fresh dusty color palette and lighter fabrics. One of the most discussed colors throughout the past, pink has a complex history. As more decided and stronger color, it was long considered more suitable for boys, and it was not before 1918 that it [...]
In the recent days we've woken up to the new reality. The world is in a state of fear and uncertainty that is stressful and overwhelming for all of us. We kept it pretty quiet on the utopiast's channels for the last couple of days since we wanted to take time to contemplate what is [...]
utopiast's co-founder shares her spring obsessions. WHITE SHIRT White shirt shouts SPRING with a thousand exclamation points. I've already wrote an ode to it here but seriously: what is not to love about a garment that so easily translates from bed to meeting and later to the beach? GOLD I was always more of a [...]
