If all goes well, I will be the proud mama of some pastel dr. Martens by the end of this week!

I really like the (low) mint shoe the most but honestly I don't think they would look good on my skinny legs and narrow feet :(  

So it will be the lilac or mint boot that I'm going for! And although this is a summer collection I really think they would look better in Autumn/Winter with black tights!


So... Lilac or Mint?

Chromat





All photos by the Olive Shoppe

I'm currently going crazy for the constructed boning and elastic body Armour from Chromat at the Olive Shoppe!!
Especially the elastic shoulder harness and the cage bralette!
(I would so wear them with pastels and my white dr. Martens)

ps. Wouldn't mind finding the bunny print dress by Fleamadonna in my closet either ;)

Dr. M







wearing; Alexander Wang blazer, TopShop dress, Dr Martens boots

I don't think the TopShop dress will survive another round in the laundry... the lining of the dress is all stretched out and makes the dress twist and turn when wearing it. Actually all my dresses and tops made out of stretchy lace fabrics tend to loose their shape after a while.. does that happen only to me?

I still really like the color though, it's a pastel lilac and the color was the reason why I wore it anyway.. feeling lilac+white+black lately!

cocorosa t-shirt @ Zara


I'm on a t-shirt in the Zara! 

I actually don't know what to write but for me it was pretty amazing to see my own snout hanging in the Zara, I think maybe people expect me to act kind of "cool" and "unaffected" about it?

But the truth is that I grew up in a very small city in a very small country and when growing up in the middle of nowhere a lot of things seem impossible especially if you are not drop dead beautiful or drop dead smart but just normal? like getting a job in New York or getting interviewed for magazines and especially appear on a t-shirt in the Zara! 

When I saw myself in the Zara I imagined myself being 17 again, I would not have believed it! I think what I want to say is that often when I was 17 I could only dream about things and felt discouraged because all these dreams deemed impossible because of where I lived and because who I was. I just want to say that I was wrong.. If I can be on a t-shirt coming from the middle of nowhere everyone can be! I think your dreams, whoever you are, wherever you are and whatever they are can come true! Never feel discouraged! xoxo


Thank you Zara and Happy Punt!!

JC night walk

Jeffrey Campbell Night Walk at solestruck


Really love the JC Night Walk but I feel I need to see them first on someone! and I would really like to know if they are easy to walk in! I'm also a bit hesitant about the "mary-jane" strap because I would like these maybe as simple as possible? but maybe that's just me?

But mostly my brain is spinning right now, can these shoes be embellished? I am so in love with the shape but would love to make them my own by doing a crazy DIY, to say crystallize them!
So I hope there will be a nude/brown/white version of a material that I can sew on, glue on whatever!!

Starbusted again


stylebySofia dress, wolford thigh high socks, Forever21 stud boots

I had a giant wardrobe clean-up over the weekend and realized how much I love these studded boots from forever21. (I bought them more then a year ago for $30)

They are very similar to the Jeffrey Campbell Starburst boots which made a come-back at Solestruck and Nastygal!
