Remember my newly made skirt in the most beautiful Italian wool brocade? Styling it with an old closet favorit knit in pink that I just realised would be perfect for this skirt! Knit is from a Swedish designer Anna Holtblad from whom I've been enjoying mostly her beautiful knits over the years. I would guess I've had this knit for almost 20 years and I've been keeping it to be worn on and off over the years. There are clothes that I just fall in love with and can't stand throwing away or sell, and this … [Read more...] about Light Pink
More Of The Wool Flannel Pants
The grey pants came in handy, both in terms of color and warmth! We have a cold, dark and grey January month in Stockholm. Some days, like today, it feels as though there's no light what so ever...

Jardin Des Tuileries
...one more tee... This time with gold letters! I really love this new funky way to up-date the ever persisting tees. I've always preferred a tee to a shirt but for a while I let the shirts win. But with this trend of printing a couple of well chosen words in the front, it's all about the tees again! This one is from Zadig & Voltaire and I couldn't resist the French theme - in golden letters! Skirt - plaid skirt by my own design and making Cardigan - Miu miu … [Read more...] about Jardin Des Tuileries
