Hello my dear readership,

work hard, play hard with the spring suit that will awake you to new life. Check out the trends behind the spring business style in the following.

“Life is about kicking a**…”, and not just anyone’s a but yours! Being fit at 40 is the biggest status-symbol, my eyes once came across these lines and they are so true and a real aim to take. But sometimes I feel like I am at my edge of exhaustion and completely mind-lost as well as nerves lost at the beginning of my 30s. I must tell you, this horrifies me as people in their early 30s are still considered young, almost youthful. What have I just become…? Have I grown old now? Is this the end? My mind is spooking with thoughts like these sometimes – apart from the usual “no matter what you do it is not good enough” – it is rather a “I am not fit enough” and I know that more than lack of sleep or cheating in food negative energies are the reason for this state of min(e)/d.

But otherwise what do I probably expect? Laying down on the couch, lazily, and expecting all to fall right into my arms? Kind and educated children, a slim and healthy body, money, a property… We cannot just snap and expect everything to on place on its own. Also I have figured out for myself that care alone is not enough in this tough world to survive and get further. I continuously need to kick my a** and challenge myself on and on in order to achieve the changes I want to see on myself and the miracles I dream of to come true. The biggest reward is the success you see after hard work – they do not say “work hard, play hard” for no reason. Even in Estonia they have a saying that laziness makes you tired, work never does. Because basically you are productive and you create something. The same effect has the work on yourself.

When you are working hard on yourself like kicking your a** you free yourself from all the bad thoughts and energies. You know that if you can survive the hard discipline you can achieve anything. You start the day with a much different energy and more satisfaction and get stronger inside out. And last but not least: if you are fit you will be the best ideal for your children and further fellows.

Trend: Pastel Tailoring

Where have pastels got to this time, you are wondering? Legit question as spring without pastels would be like a spring without flowers and sun. The pastels have a new responsible task this year adorning the suits in a trendy pastel tailoring. Approximately two years ago suits have proven, as I wrote here, to be an essential, stylish part of our life even after work. But you know spring is the time to come to new life, to absorb positive energy and spread it yourself. The best solution is the harmonizing composition of discipline and brightness. My pastel of choice is nothing less than liliac. As I have not owned lilac business pants this was a good occasion for me to finally order the one from my favorite label Tallinn Dolls. Sadly the colors are not the perfect match but alright for this look from a reasonable point-of-view. But I definitely consider changing my blazer.

“Spring and summer do not only bring an uplifting mood but also simplicity.”

It-Piece: Comfortable Blazer

Spring and summer do not only bring an uplifting mood but also simplicity. Thinking of summer clothes get lighter. As for spring regarding the suit you can achieve simplicity in clothing with comfortable blazers. This creates a good addition to the simplicity created by pastel colors which have meanwhile established as we essentials for the beginning of the warm season. With my oversized blazer by H&M I managed to have both: the pastel tailoring as well as the comfortable blazer. But as I have told you I am going to exchange it with the actual matching suit to the business pants by Tallinn Dolls which you can see here. I originally wanted to buy matching pants for my already owned blazer. The pants by the Estonian label came to my mind immediately because I love the quality, the easy care of their products and most of all I love their kind service. I realized that the shades go too much apart in coolness and warmth and because I do not need two blazers in lilac I decided to donate my old one.
