Summer is just around the corner, and one or the other may soon have their next vacation. We all know it: We are currently in the transition period to summer and are standing in front of our closet, which is still full of vintage clothing for the winter, or for the famous “just in case”: What if we do it again Blizzard coming and it getting cold? Not entirely unfathomable, because April does what it wants, and this year in particular has surprised us with an annoying mix of warm, sunny days and icy snowflakes. So it's no wonder that the vintage Nike puffer jacket still has its rightful place in the wardrobe. Of course, the transitional jackets and track jackets as well as vintage sweaters and hoodies are also permanent "guardians" of our closet - for warm days in shirts with cool evenings, to then quickly throw the jacket or sweater over the shirt.
But soon the precautions for the problem “What if it gets cold again?” will be over once and for all.
The days are getting longer and already at the end of April we are noticing how it is getting warmer and sunnier. So now it's over once and for all, we have to rearrange our wardrobe - and the long-sleeved outfit has to go somewhere deep in the basement! Your wardrobe now needs space for summery vintage pieces!
