Preparations

Some very casual layering on the only sunny day of the month.. My Miista Andee boots have been serving me faithfully, I would say this is as close as I get to a combat boot, the heel looks like it could take a few hits. But hey tonight it's Christmas eve! I now have to run to get my mincemeat pies in the oven..

wishing you all a Merry Christmas!

A beautiful denial


You know what? screw this darkness I say. It's been raining slush for the last month... or weeks, but it sure feels like forever. So instead of complaining about the weather I will attempt to bring back summer, or at least here on the blog. So let's look at a few photos I took for Aqua last summer, I picked out my favorites for a little feature in their lookbook, and of course I was left with an overspill of photos that I can't really explain why I never got around posting. Hope you like them... feels like season and a half late, but whole collection is now available online, some even on sale.

I originally fell in love with the green version, but equally much appreciate the Lopez dress in all other three colous. Worn here with acne heels and martin margiela bracelet.

Blaa. The weather in Finland has been nothing but dark and depressing, I've actually not managed to get a single photo taken this week, so lets go with a few London posts instead. I'm actually in possess of an embarrassing amount of unposted photos... December might be the time to get them out of the way before a clean new start to 2012.

I might be overly dramatic, at least when it comes to these, taken a few weeks back. Lovely seeing the Finsk x Urban Outfitters wedges action again right? I managed to look almost tall when I wore them as an extension to my leather looking pants.

Fluff

I was strangely drawn to this orange pile of fluff when I came across it a while back. I think Prada's AW collection might have had something to do with that. But I would say anything colourful that gets me excited at this time of year has to be worth buying.

Still no proper snow in Finland, I would almost go as far as saying I miss the weather in London.

With a swedish influence


 cos hoodie
h&m vest
zara skirt

Apologies for the slow updates lately, still one long week to push through before I can escape the city for a little country getaway.

I spotted this hoodie originally on Columbine's blog, who is doing a really good job at the styling of Styleby magazine. I then later accidentally came across the jumper in the menswear department of Cos.. with it's cosy thick scuba material, it just had to be mine. Also on monday my Nowhere shoes arrived! you might already guess what I'm going to say next.. I wish the heel was higher. Nevertheless I've been using them all week and they are surprisingly comfortable.

ps. I've been so taken by your positive feedback on the Grazia feature! love you all xxx

The brand new Diesel



With a brand new design team lead by Finnish Heikki Salonen, Diesel is doing an amazing job revamping not just the designs but whole image. I took part in a little challenge to style my favorite Diesel looks, see the outcome in a whopping three page spread in tomorrows Grazia magazine!

The attraction of the ugliness

A bit of a continuation from yesterdays post.. although I'm in total basics, reeeeally excited about the shoes. They simply are the solution to wearing a manly brogue without wearing flats. I've only seen acne and simone rocha do it right. When these first came out I said it's one of the ugliest shoes I've seen in a long time. I guess there is always the attraction in the things you can not get or the ones you publicly state that you hate. Me and my fugly shoes are now very happy together.

Worn today for lunch in soho. I'm in brand new shoes again, but don't jugde me, it's sale season.

I am going to bomard you with detail photos later, but for now.. nighty night my sweets (meaning my shoes and my darling readers)

A casual take on a psychedelic print


zara coat
hm x versace knit
gina tricot jeans
benetton beanie
laurence dacade boots

I warned you the bag might be popping up in a few future outfit posts, so here it is in action. I wore it with some of my basics and the versace x hm jumper I found at the men's department. The fact that I was a little late on the launch and only found the cardi in a large size, proved to be the reason why I liked it so much. I did also buy the palm printed one but this will pass as a somewhat normal garment and I can see myself wearing it more than twice. It's around the time of the year when a beanie is starting to become acceptable, for me it's a nice alternative to those baseball caps I've been wearing more than a lot..

My sweet clementine


h&m divided knit
h&m trend leather skirt
ebay cap

Ahh my shoes. I actually kissed them when I slowly lifted them out from the box on my birthday a few weeks back. My modest wish list proved itself useful after all.

As for the rest of my outfit.. I am wearing a lovely fluffy knit that I stumbled across in the divided department of h&m. Such a nice surprise, how great is the combination of fluff and dip dye? I'm having a hard time convincing people that it was a 20 something pound find.

The high-slit, leather skirt is another winning story and I think I might not be the only one that has been keeping an eye out for this one. First spotted over at Caroline's blog, whereafter I annoyed the h&m staff everyday until it finally came in this week. It was worth it.

Retro playboy girl

I would usually stay away from anything with the playboy logo, if you know me at all, you would agree. But when I found this retro tee in my sister's closet, I could not resist pairing it with my oldest, patched jeans. I added my nineties pumps and the plastic jil sander tote that I've been using a lot more than what actually proved on the blog. All together, quite casually nice.

I've been filming a shoe video over the weekend! and finally got it uploaded on my computer late last night... turns out it's a million times harder to choose your favorite seconds than it is photos... I'm looking at a major yes-no-yes marathon over the next few days.

Other things I did over the weekend: discoverd my love for this new scarf that makes any layering a total nobrainer, realized I wear these jeans offensively much, wore an old cap backwards... so much for working towards a more mature wardrobe.

For the shorter days

I'm usually the one who defends everything about autumn... but I've recently been feeling a bit down about the darker season, the day goes from dark to dark grey to black. Super depressing so wearing flowers or experiencing them in any form helps a lot. And since there won't be any time for a beach getaway in the near future, I relying on the little things to make the difference.
