I don't think I've ever bought so many clothes/accessories/fashion stuff for myself in one year. This below is a sort of "mood board" because I need futile things that make me happy right now; here is my year in "fashion" (as far as the term applies to me... XD)
In April, bought myself new (well... second-hand XD) coats in Parisian thrift shops
A forest green Paddington bear coat:

A lovely cape with ornate silver buttons:

And, inspired by Vince Noir, a fabulous coat lined with fake fur that I can't help but carressing all the time:

Oh, and a vintage dress:

In August I bought a new handbang, the most expensive I've ever bought, to reward myself for surviving three months working as an au pair

In September it was flashy purple tights and sparkly Vince Noir boots (yes Vince Noir will always be an inspiration)

In October it was dresses, bought on sale on ASOS' website
A faaaaabulous disco/sequined violet one:

And a majestic princess-y red one:

Also in October, my friend Béa handcrafted a Catrina Calavera ring as a birthday gift

And finally, in November, my Christmas jumper whose warmth I will never leave until at least next year
