Complement Shopper
I have been looking for a bag with this rectangular shape for a while...I think I've found it! It's the Complement shopper and it costs 399 kr at Åhléns. I like this bag because I can throw my books and stuff and run after the bus...
Ellos Sara Kelly Coat
I say this burgundy coat is my style, my hubby says it is not, and wants me to try a leather jacket. I say I am too old for a leather jacket, and he says I'm too young for this coat...What do you think? The coat costs 399 kr at Ellos.com (it's on sale) and it's 60% wool.
Scorett Ankleboots
These burgundy ankleboots from Scorett could both add a little colour to my all-black outfits and keep me warm in the winter cold if I only had 899 kr!!! They are cute, aren't they?

Chanel: Collections and Creations
This book on the house of Chanel looks good! It costs 190 kr (16.5 British pounds) on adlibris.com. I bet it is worth every penny!
OPI- The Best of The Best
I got this OPI collection as a Xmas gift from a very good friend. I ♥ it! It's the most fashionable present I've received this Christmas. :)

Merry Xmas everybody! :)

A hint of Miu Miu
Don't ask me why I like these Mary Janes, but I do think they are CUTE. I would wear them with a pink blouse and the rest of the outfit in black, to let them be the statement piece on their own. They have a hint of the Miu Miu A/W 2011 collection, haven't they?
They come from Asos.com and cost 203 kr.
Lanvin T-shirts
Topshop Flame Sequin Jumper
Black is my favorite colour when it comes to clothes. This black jumper would be a good addition to my wardrobe because it has details that are there to make it original but that do not disturb the simplicity of the model, if you know what I mean. In other words, the jumper is still classy. And the flames in sequins remind me of the Prada S/S 2012 collection. Check it!
The jumper is from Topshop and costs £46.

Nelly Flower Shirt
I have been checking Nelly.com regularly to see if this shirt was available for purchase yet, and today it is! This became an order and one of my Xmas presents. I think it is a very pretty flower pattern for only 299 kr! And the fact that it's black and white makes it a winter must for me! I'm loving it! I want my order NOW!

Whyred Natalie Ankle Boots
I think it would be fun to pair these Whyred Natalie ankle boots with an all-black outfit to give maximun effect. They cost 3,000 kr but are made of real suede so the quality and durability are guaranteed.

Leafling through old fashion magazines...
100 Contemporary Fashion Designers
Fashion books are almost as addictive as cupcakes! I really really want 100 Contemporary Fashion Designers on my bookshelf. It regularly costs 350 kr but apparently it will be available on H&M stores at the super sale price of 150 kr so I might have to run to the city to get mine while there is stock! :)

Ole Lynggaard Lotus Collection
I saw this ring on Elle Sweden magazine and fell in love with it. It's simply gorgeous! I comes from a Danish jewellery brand, called Ole Lynggaard. The ring belongs to the Lotus collection. A dream!

In the Cold
All I can think now when it's so cold and rainy outside is how to get warm and cosy. I believe these sweaters would work for both purposes! Also, I like to dress in a go and all these ones need is a pair of jeans and that's it. NICE!
The rose sweater comes from Gina Tricot and costs 249 kr. The other one is from H&M and costs 399kr. Not bad! :)

Hand Creams
If there is something I cannot live without, it is hand cream! It's my tic, my hubby says. But seriously, with all the cold and dry weather here...there is nothing our hands deserve more than a nice moisturizer. And between us, I get extremely nervous when my hands feel dry.
So I will try these Cath Kidston Collection and see how it goes...it costs 74 kr on Asos.com and it includes a set of 3 30ml handcreams with fragance of rose, honey and bluberries. Yummy!

The Shopper Bag
I LOVE this bag! Isn't it gorgeous? And the best thing is...it's big! I would take it to school with me...well, I would take it everywhere! It's the perfect everyday casual bag.
It is designed by River Island and it costs a little less than 300 kr on Asos.com

These Rainy Days...
It's been raining non-stop for weeks now. It's so boring! Today the rain reminded me of one of my absolute fave Burberry Prorsum collections, that of Spring 2010 RTW. I wish I could afford those trenchcoats!

Christian Louboutin The Book
Marni + H&M
It was announced today that H&M's next collaboration is Marni. Exciting! I do not know much about this Italian house, but I have peeped through its latest collections and I have to admit that I am now looking forward to seeing the final result. Lots of prints from what I have checked.
These are a couple of Marni looks that I like. (Pics from Style.com)
Pensée Power
I have a dilemma: to buy or not to buy? My absolutely favourite collection this winter was Givenchy RTW. Those purple pansies on blouses and skirts were simply GORGEOUS. I saw that Zara has got inspiration from the collection. This blouse is VERY cute and costs 559 kr, which is somewhat a little too much for me...
Pics from Zara.com and Style.com
Classic Dress
Is it me or Zara and Mango are becoming more expensive? I could not really find anything worth the price today...although there were a lot of lovely clothes. But far from my league (or budget)!!!
I like this combined dress because one can dress it up or down with the accesories...and because of its neutral colours, it can go with almost anything. It's very classy too.
It costs 559 kr.

Style By Nowhere
I would love to own a pair of Nowhere shoes and boots. They look simple but edgy. Me likes! Elin Kling did it again!!!
Get them at Nelly.com for 399kr and 699kr.

Saturday's Shopping Fever...
I have made up my mind. I'm going to buy new jeans tomorrow. I will make an extra effort and even try to find a pair in black. I have never had a pair of black jeans before...wish me luck! This is part of an effort to vary my style a little more...I'm also thinking of getting a dark blue sweater...What do you think? By the way...I've never liked dots, but Stella Mc Kartney made the impossible possible and made a gorgeous collection of dotted garments...my fave was the black dress above but well...I'm too poor to go for the original model...I would like to try the Mango version (for only 689 kr) or the Lindex top that resembles the models (with a black top under...I don't go for transparent clothes otherwise). The top at Lindex costs only 199 kr.

Here Today Aragon Tomorrow...
I do not know why I sometimes feel like using something that is not on the market at the moment. I'm either late with the trends or at little before my time...this is usually the case with the nail polish colours. I mean one or two seasons ago this shade of green was everywhere...now that I desperately want it on my nails I cannot find it! Is is sold out? I know I should have bought this OPI Here Today Aragon Tomorrow Suede last year...I regret it now!

Jason Wu
I love Jason Wu, it's a pity his clothes are so expensive! I believe that I would look great on his clothes, because they are ultra feminine and smart at the same time. That is how I would like to dress. This lace trimmed wool sweater can be purchased on net-a-porter.com for €1,292.49 (!!!)
I think that the lace idea is genious!
Miu Miu Resort 2011- J'adore!
There is not much to be said about this...except that I love everything and I would kill for the bag! Perfect colour, perfect size, perfect details. Ahhhh!!!!

A Little Bit of Colour
The charm of this skirt is that you can dress it up or down according to the ocassion and the time of the day. Sandals and a simple top for the day, high heels and a cute blouse for the night. Magic! :)
Get it at LK Bennet for only 30 pounds ( + shipping). It's on sale!
LK Bennet
One of the favorite brands of Her Royal Highness The Dutchess of Cambridge. LK Bennet knows how to design clothes for women with style. I would love to have more of her creations in my wardrobe..maybe in the future! All I can do now is to dream of this fantastic LBD that costs 225 pounds.

Irreverent
Trying to log into H&M's website to check what's been sold out and what not but it's impossible! The site is down due to so many visitors. Well done Donatella!
Today I am adding something different to my wishlist: a book. But not any book, of course, it is a book about fashion. I'm talking about Carine Roitfeld's Irreverent. It costs 600 kr, way too much for my student budget. I wouldn't mind receiving it for Xmas.... Have you got it? Did you like it?

I'm not queuing...
When H&M announced this year's collaboration with Versace I was surprised and curious. Versace has never been a brand I have particularly liked and identified myself with. Still, I thought that since H&M is a Swedish chain the result could appeal to me...Unfortunately, Versace decided to go for what is stands for, no intepretations, no customization...I looked and really tried to find something I could bring to my wardrobe but concluded that this time I am not gonna buy anything. The main reasons are:
1) I'm not a Versace 1,80 size 34 superblonde.
2) The clothes are too colourful and I'd rather wear black in winter.
3) The clothes are meant for a Californian or a Miami party girl...
4) The clothes are either too short or too tight or too open...or too expensive!
The rings were cute though...but I already have too many rings and I never use them.
If Only...
If only I had had 2000 kr more...I would have snapped these two pairs from the shelves as well. Lanvin for H&M was one of the best collaborations, to me. What do you think?
Almost a year ago...
Almost a year ago I was standing in line to get into a H&M store. My objective: Get the Lanvin for H&M jacket at all costs! 30 minutes later I left the shop 1000 kr poorer but very happy. My black jacket is now a party classic in my wardrobe. I ♥ it!

River Island Lady Bag
No. I'm not going to buy it. 470 kr for a bag I will not use until summer is too much for my student budget, but what a cute bag!!! River Island always treats us with pretty and affordable designs. Get it at asos.com.
