Back Details

I'm Wearing; Alexander Wang Blazer, Shop Akira top, H&M leggings, DIY mongolian fur bag made by Feed your Style, Lucette leather bag, La Dama faux fox tail, IT Ballet flats

I think I made a habit of wearing my blazers and jackets over my hair haha, "the tucked in hair" although I think when you would try to tuck your hair in, it wouldn't look as effortlessly.. Just be a bit sloppy like me and it would come naturally ;)

Ballerinas

New Ballerina Flats from IT shoes, Long length tutu skirt and silk top both from the H&M

These Ballet flats from independent label IT shoes are so elegant and give such a sophisticated French look with their simplicity and quality. Bravo to designer Isis Alarcon, I'm a Fan!! Of course I had to start right away with pulling outfits together, funny how shoes can inspire me for styling looks haha somehow I call these my Audrey Hepburn shoes..

KILLDARLING

KILLDARLING SUMMER 2011 from KILLDARLING on Vimeo.

I'm loving KILLDARLING's first collection! and Love the Video! (Candy colored silk dresses ~ yum yum)


I think what Sam wrote about her label and collection says it all; (plus I like the story haha)

"Killdarling is clothing for tea parties and after parties. For trips to Paris and trips to the mailbox.It is for the girl who has had enough of rainbows, unicorns and Prince Charming. For the girl who doesn't care if she loses a shoe at the ball. For the girl who throws the other shoe at Prince Charming, takes off with the hot valet guy who parked her pumpkin carriage, and heads with him to the afterparty. Barefood. Killdarling is made for mischief and adventure."


hmmmm.... does this sound like something we would do? I would say "hell yeah"

Lace and Lacquer

I'm wearing; Shop Akira lace shorts, Alexander Wang blouse, Veronique Branquinho black blouse, Zara shoes, Lucette bag, La Dama faux fox tail and ysl-look-a-like ring

Wearing my new lace shorts from Shop Akira.
Thanks to my spring wardrobe cleaning I found the lacquer Zara shoes, A. Wang and Veronique Branquinho blouses somewhere hidden in boxes!

I used to wear the Branquinho blouse with everything a few years ago (something I will doing again hehe) Both the blouses were bought at consignment shop Tokio 7 (in New York) The Zara shoes are from seasons ago and back them I worn them only once, they were kind of a miss-buy but right now I'm so happy I didn't got rid of them!

In the mail...

ShopAKIRA lace shorts and ruffle tunic, DIY fur bag and DIY YSL palais mohawk pumps by Micol from feedyourstyle.com

My past week consisted of; Moving, Ikea, moving again, back to the Ikea, assembling an Ikea Pax wardrobe which literally took the whole day to mount together and which investment means eating peanut butter for the rest of the month, ha ha.. I'm still waiting for the H&M curtains to come in and then I'm almost all set! I'm so happy how everything looks!!

The high-lights of the week were some of the amazing packages that came in! they totally made up for the horrible mounting of the Ikea wardrobe :)

The shopAKIRA lace shorts and ruffle dress/tunic are both from Akira's Black Label and really beautifully and well made, I'm in love with the materials and the perfect shade of cream! I already planned out like 5 different outfits with them haha

The diy Mongolian fur bag and the diy YSL palais mohawk pumps are sent to me by Italian blogger Micol Zanzuri from feedyourstyle.com who did an amazing diy with feathers to make the idea her own and who gives tutorials on all her designs for a TV show called Fashion Attack seen here. I love Micol, her vibe and videos make me happy and I'm drooling over her diy's!!

The other packages that arrived are as delicious as these and I can't wait to share them in a post but first.. the last bits of moving are today and then I can finally enjoy my new little home!!
