Sewing is a thing I do with lots of passion, I must be in love with a project and I can even get obssessed with it.
That's why I'm unhappy now, I have a huge box full of patterns, a closet full of fabric, but nothing appeals to me.
So I decided to browse the online shops and style websites and post here things that I like. Maybe my inspiration will come.
Older pictures found on my computer... If anyone knows about a pattern that looks like the jacket below on the right, please tell me!

I love the eyelet suit! You have excellent taste!
Thank you, Tany, I adore that suit, especially the jacket. Must make one, don't have any eyelet but I'm sure I can find some adequate fabric.
By the way, I've discovered your blog about 10 days ago via another blog (don't remember which one) and love it! I must congratulate you for your patience and care for details. That Orwell coat is going to be absolutely gorgeous! I want one too, it really is my style.

Ok, I'll take a stab at a few of these.
For the two jackets one right under the other, the black one and the beige one with similar style, try Vogue 8368. All you'd have to do with that one is ditch the lace, shorten the sleeves a bit and add welt pockets.
The white jacket with the short sleeves with buckle trim could be made from B4999, with some fairly simple mods: lengthen the jacket, shorten the sleeves, move the buttons/buttonholes up closer together and add the strap/buckle detail on the sleeve.
I haven't looked further than the big 4, but I hope you'll find your inspiration comes back!
Thanks so much, Summerset! Vogue 8368 is indeed perfect, after reading your comment, I've ordered it immediately!
