Spotlight // Claudia of Germany Style Profile

This is the lovely Claudia of Flickr and I'm always inspired by her effortless personal style!  Enjoy reading her interview.

How do you describe your personal style?
Experimental, i would say.  I especially like flea market finds, because of the recycling aspect and because i like to challenge my flexibility, not relevant for me is if the clothes are bohemian, ethno, military, or whatever inspired.

(I also would love to wear haute couture everyday, but the e$$ential is missing for the flexibility in this case ;-)

Where do you find/pull inspiration from?
I like the inspiration exchange on flickr groups, but i also get inspired by people on the streets and on travels.

Name one fashion accessory you can't live without?
Boots (do they count as accessory?) if not, i like necklaces as well!

I never break this fashion rule.......
I'm not a good "rule" person in general. I break them all, though, I try to avoid that underwear (like bra strips) are visible somewhere, but often i break even that easy rule...

Your next must have purchase?
Actually i'm looking for a nice fabric on ebay because i want to sew a dress.

Most underrated item in women's wear?
For sure (and you will comfirm) a cute beret or a hat can make a great difference, it can change a whole look. In my case the berets have a second relevant utility, to hide the mess underneath.

For all the fashionistas, provide one piece of invaluable fashion advice.
Confidence! Nothing is more fashionable than confidence!
