Christian Louboutin The Book

I would like to have a look at this book at least. From what I have read it's a real pearl for shoe lovers, especially those who are big fans of the brand and designer. It costs around 1000kr.

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...

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!

Back to the Past

Ok, I would never ever buy the Miu Miu dress (Pic 2) from this A/W collection (It costs €2,860), but I can afford to dream of this Asos Midi Dress (Pic 1) for only 595.26 kr!!! :)

Tighten up!

I saw these Flocked Rose tights on an editorial in Elle Sweden and fell in love with them! I WANT them!!!! They cost 119 kr on asos.com.

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.

Style by H&M!

Ok, I have this tunic (it costs 250 kr at H&M) already but did not know how I would style it. I have good taste for clothes but I'm really bad (or lazy, or both!) at styling myself. I read fashion magazines to get ideas but, to be honest, most of their tips and combinations are not thought for a size 40 like me! I saw this pic on h&m.com today and thought that it would not hurt to try this combo. It might even work for me too! Just need to find the necklace now...

Xmas Wish Part 1

This Tiger of Sweden knitted sweater has a texture and a fall that makes it the perfect golden sweater this winter. It 's a pity I don't have 1,699kr to get it! A total dream!

A Xmas Dream

Well, if I were ever invited to a formal Xmas party and I'd had to dress up, this would be an option! I love the femininity of it, the delicacy in the design, the colour and the sparkles! I saw this dress at topshop.com some weeks ago. It is a limited edition and costs 600kr. Get it if you can!

Black Lace Forever

This black lace shirt is both feminine and "smart". You know what I mean! You find it at Zara and it costs 299kr. I saw it styled with both jeans and leather skirts during Paris Fashion Week. And black never goes out of fashion. This is A keeper!

Zara Cravings Part 2

Hey! It's been a while since I last posted. I've missed the blog but I was trying to refocus my attention to my studies and other responsibolities. But here I am again! Today's wish is a shirt from Zara that I first saw on Elin Kling's blog and that I totally loved. I have been looking for a shirt with stars but ok, I have bad luck when it comes to fashion and when I finally find the perfect model, it's sold out. This gorgeous shirt costs 399kr. It's very Dolce & Gabbana A/W '11/12. To see it styled please check Elin's blog.
