Gahyun's Tips for Winter Style
Based in Seoul, Gahyun is our Content Manager for South Korea and a real fashion expert. Vestiaire Collective launched in South Korea in the summer and she loves using the platform to shop for vintage pieces from around the world. But, Gahyun is a woman with great taste - she chooses her vintage pieces very carefully. Today, she's sharing some of her recent treasures and how she styles them...
My winter essentials are...
...an Isabel Marant Étoile wool blazer, Lemaire wide trousers, Prada vintage pleated skirt, Miu Miu biker boots and Chanel classic loafers. They’re essentials because they’re so versatile. As the temperature varies so much South Korea, especially between day and night, it's better to wear layers rather than heavy knitwear. I also love to add a unique touch to cosy looks with Miu Miu's biker boots, which are great in the winter.
I found them...
...a few weeks ago on Vestiaire Collective, of course! For styling, I always keep it simple, building my outfits with pieces I can wear everyday. During the day, I wear the pleated skirt with trainers and flats, and for evening I make a simple change to boots, adding statement jewelry and accessories for a unique finishing touch.
For festive gifts, it's important to...
...choose carefully. That said, you can’t go wrong with classic gloves - they're versatile and practical but not at all boring. It can be challenging to shop for someone with specific tastes, but some pieces are guaranteed to make any fashion lover happy. Bold necklaces are now coming back and pieces like Chanel’s big pendant necklace would be the perfect gift. The best affordable gifts are classics like Adidas trainers or Ugg boots.
