Content
While Clara Marinelli's blog is first aimed at exposing Clara Marinelli experimental outfits in her search of her truely personal style, it also features a number of specific outfits or pieces of clothes that inspired Clara, as well as some of Clara's drawings.
The blog's 3 main features are:
- Outfits
- Works & Drawings
- Photoshoots
Outfits
This category shows experimental outfits by Clara Marinelli. Outfits are usually worn by Clara herself, sometimes by friends of her. This category really is the original and special part of the blog.
Works and drawings
In this category, Clara exposes the outfits, clothes, designers, ads that influenced her in her research of the perfect outfits. It also features drawings that Clara makes when the piece of clothes she needs does not exist and needs to be drawn.
Photoshoots
The "photoshoots" posts combine an outfit and a particular way of shooting, a special pose or a nice background. The pictures of this category are at the frontier between the fashion universe and photoshooting/modeling.
Style
Clara Marinelli's outfits are mainly aimed at women, more particularly young and fashionable women. A number of principles drive Clara's creativity:
- Fashion can be chic and cheap at the same time: usually Clara would specify the exact item she is wearing, that she bought herself, with limited budget.
- Fashion should be environmentally responsible: the fashionista has to be aware of the impact on the environment of the clothes she is wearing
- Fashion is not about new clothes: in fact Clara creates most of her outfits with clothes she already has, or even clothes that she dug up from her parents closet.
Vintage, Hippie and Classy styles should also be considered as major influences. The influence of the Parisian lifestyle is also visible.
