Report from OFW





Pictures: Epilogue, Flinga, Hanne (my friend who went with me to the shows), me.
So sorry I haven't updated the blog in a while, but after attending fashion week, I was super-busy trying to get everything together, to move across the country to attend a new school... I have now been at the school for about a week, so as I'm all settled in, I'm ready to start blogging again!

- Anyway, Oslo Fashion Week was so much fun! The shows were fantastic, the atmosphere was great, and as to be expected, there were plenty of well-dressed people! My favourite show was by a brand called Flinga. They had so many fantastic, wearable, yet fashionable clothes, and I basically wanted them all! Epilogue also did a really great show with a lot of high fashion elements. A truly great weekend!

OFW here I come


I have won tickets to a show at Oslo fashion week!! How lucky am I?! I would say very... It's been a dream of mine since I knew what it was... I won by entering this contest in a magazine where you had to name your favourite norwegian designer, and tell why. Then they picked out those with the best reasons, and one of them was me!! Yay. I also get to bring a friend, it will be so much fun! Can't wait.

I'm floating on a pink cloud

Today I am just generally happy. It's a good feeling.

Look of the day


I love this outfit on Kate Moss. Her outfit is classic yet rock-chick inspired. The outfit consisting of grey skinny jeans, a black top and a grey blazer is so basic, but becomes more interesting because of the accessories added. Just goes to show how much a pair of shoes, a belt, a bag, a scarf and a ring can do to an outfit! Kate Moss does it again...

Boho-chic

I love the boho-chic look the model on the cover of Numéro has. The layered necklaces, the big earrings, the patterned top and the big floppy hat look fantastic, and give a sort of luxurious 70s feel. Love it.

Today I wish I was wearing this


Keep it simple with classics such as dark skinny jeans and a loose tee, and add personality with accessories like bangles, necklaces, unique shoes and a statement bag. I think i might want to throw on something like this today...

4 items every cool guy should own



- The fedora hat
- The waistcoat
- The skinny jeans
- The Ray Ban wayfarers
As you can probably tell, I have a thing for rockerboys.. I just love their sense of style. I can't explain it any further, they just have it.
Tonight it's partytime. Maybe I'll post my outfit before I leave.
- Later lovelies

Look of the day

I love the outfit that Kate Moss is wearing in this photo. The military/band jacket, teamed with skinny grey jeans, a loose tee, emerald green bag, aviator sunglasses and a chunky gold bracelet is the perfect fit for a cool day-look. Lovely.

LBD


Today I decided to wear my little black dress during the day. Pairing it with a long cardigan, gladiator sandals and bangles, it definately works as a daytime look in my eyes. What do you think? Did I pull it off?

Trend report: the long sleeved mini-dress




It's time to put you legs on display - only, your legs. The long sleeved mini-dress is one of the biggest trends for fall, and the garnment could be seen all over the runways. As usual, Chloë Sevigny is on top of things, and was recently spotted wearing a nude coloured long sleeved mini-dress to an event, and looked great. If you are extra daring, wear this dress super skintight with shoulderpads like at Balmain, but if you are still wondering if this trend is all you, go for a softer look, like at Just Cavalli.

Today I wish I was wearing this

Today I wish I was wearing this. Classic and black, with studs and stripes. Me likey. An actual outfit might come later...

Today's outfit



- Blazer with rolled up sleeves, slouchy blue-greenish tee, denim cut-offs, black ballerinas, bangles and statement necklace, as you can see in the picture above.

This is what I wore today, only about halfway through the day, I switched the blazer for my biker jacket instead. Now I'm off to bed, only have to finish my cup of camomile tea first. Nighty.

Work that body!

- Gwyneth Paltrow in Alexander Wang.

Now, I'm going to put on my excercise clothes and get a good workout, so that maybe sometime in history, I'll have a body as great as Gwyneth's!

Look of the day


Alexa Chung looks great in a pair of dark skinny jeans, oversized blue shirt, studded gladiator sandals and a gold pendant. Notice the minty green nailpolish which was used in Chanels fall 09 show! Stylish.

Today's outfit



Today has been spent lounging in the sun, so when I finally had to get dressed to go to the store, this is what I managed to throw on... Not very adventorous or fashion-forward, or for that matter exciting for my first outfit-post, but whatever.. More photoes will hopefully come, which will be more inspirational!
Denim cut-offs, slouchy tank, long cardigan, white Ray Bans (fake though, since my real ones got stolen in may...), about thirty bangles and gladiator sandals. The cute cat's name is Gina. In case you were wondering.

Run while you can!

Look of the day


Ashley Olsen looks stunning in a black skirt, oversized black blazer, black sandals, grey transparent top, oversized brown clutch and huge black sunnies. Classic yet trendy. Effortless yet put together. If I could, I would copy the whole look.

Glorious shoes


Shoes by Asos. They're so gorgeous, I desperately want them for fall! They'll go with jeans, dresses, day and night. Ahh.. I almost find myself drooling when looking at them. My feet are yearning for them. I am way too poor to buy them at the moment though... Sadly, almost all my money were spent in Greece... Though maybe I will be able to buy them later this fall. Hopefully!

Look of the day




The City-star Whitney Port looks adorable in a purple, printed shift dress, multicoloured bag and brown ankle boots. Her boyfriend Jay looks equally cool. Gotta love a guy in a hat!

Wicked!




Alexa Chung. Pure british coolness.

The modern Coco-look


I earlier did a post on the classic Coco-Chanel style, but then realised, that while it is certainly very nice and chic, it's not really me. I then decided to style an outfit inspired by Coco Chanel, but with a modern and up to date twist. Switching the pearls for statement gold jewellery, bringing the striped top up to date, by making it a midriff-baring one, and exchanging the little black dress for a little black skirt, as well as adding a cool vintage Chanel bag, instead of the classic 2.55, all contribute to updating the usual Chanel-look, while still holding on to the key elements of the style. And off course, a huge pair of black sunglasses are needed.
