A classic pencil skirt in Chanel fabric with some shine and sparkle but with details more oriented versus a jeans look. I bring it out every spring when the sun demands more of lighter colors than the usual black. As you can see I made it with a slightly wider waist band and some cool details on the back pockets using the endings of the fabric and influences more from jeans wear than from a classic Chanel garment. It's a mix of styles that I like and make clothes more interesting! In New York I actually … [Read more...] about Chanel Skirt
Black and White Spring Jacket
Saying hi to spring in a new spring jacket from Hope. I'm the lucky owner of this jacket, a bargain from a warehouse sale for the brand Hope. Combines great quality cotton with an interesting pattern that matches all my black skirts and pants, can't be better off! All my intentions of buying something colorful went down the drain or I should have attended another warehouse sale than Hope's... Hope is really just all about black. Interesting shape of the jacket, longer in the front than in the back, … [Read more...] about Black and White Spring Jacket
Sneakers and A-line Skirt

Today I'm also inaugurating my new summer skirt, A-line shaped, in cotton and slightly longer than have been common for a couple of years. This particular one is from Whyred. … [Read more...] about Sneakers and A-line Skirt

No I Didn’t Buy Them
Sometimes your choices are also described by what you don't buy... and here is what I didn't buy. This great funky boot by Hope was actually mine for 5 days or was at least sitting in my hallway for the 5 days, me glancing at them not being able to decide. Finally I decided against. Why? I think it's because in two weeks I hope to be wearing shoes not boots, why buy them now? I can buy a pair in the fall. And in Stockholm everyone is wearing this type of low cut boot so why me as well? Sometimes I just … [Read more...] about No I Didn’t Buy Them
