This is actually the same outfit I was wearing in my cocorosa introduction video seen here.
I'm really wearing these leggings with about everything lately, the color is just perfect and uhm yes its velvet haha... me wearing velvet... again... *_*

The headband (also seen in the video) is from a brand called Ludlow, I couldn't find a site to link to, sadly, because their stuff is pretty amazing...

Björn Borg swedish export contest







I’ve teamed up with Björn Borg as the Dutch Blogger (there are about 14 other bloggers representing the other countries) to host the Swedish Exports competition, where you can win a feature on my blog + Bjorn Borgs site and also your weight in Bjorn Borg underwear!

The rules are simple:
  1. Take a photo of how fun, cool, awesome, legendary, good and excellent you look in your Björn Borgs.
  2. Upload your pictures here: SwedishExports.BjornBorg.com before Nov 28th
  3. Keep your fingers crossed!

Me and Bjorn Borg will thereafter pick the coolest pictures to be published on my blog and on Bjorn Borg.

If you don’t already own a pair of Bjorn Borgs, you can buy them HERE!


For ideas in styling and to see the other photos submitted take a look at some of the photos here, you can be as creative as you want and to style and show your undies does not mean you have to show your goodies at all!! Be creative, original and fun ;)


Good luck :)

So topped high on my wish list are the Shop Nasty Gal moonwalker bodysuit and the Solestruck Finsk 252-95 wedges

I'm starting to fall more and more in love with the American Gold pieces given to me by Suzanne from Spanish Moss Vintage who is also the founder and designer of American Gold, and I will tell you why;
the collection and its items are very original and versatile, I really love the fabrics and colors and the pieces feel like a perfect vintage find that you can style in a kazillion ways..

The dress is a gift from Storets and worn under the top so I will post some better pictures of it soon haha...

The Pyramid scheme Necklace is from kidviskous, no need to say that I love it :)

Double









I'm wearing; TopShop lace top, Levi's jeans shorts, All Saints boots, Botkier bag, Vintage Watches

I guess this was the last time I could wear my jeans shorts since the "freeze your ass off season" is about to really start... but maybe just maybe I get lucky and have a few more beautiful weekends....

I stacked on two vintage Men's watches, I always like these bulky watches better somehow... and its purely as accessory because I don't really like watches, I like them but I don't like to walk around being constantly reminded of the time? makes no sense maybe, haha

Leather

The 4th and final look for H&M's fall campaign.

quirky geek















wearing; Teamo tee, H&M dress, All Saints boots, "fake" glasses photos taken by; FadetoBlack

yeah.... I'm a nerd... I guess its because of the glasses and me being into quirky geek looks, so I guess it makes me act like a geek too...

We actually shot a little video too but while I was editing it I managed to completely edit myself out of the video and then figured there was no point in saving it anymore haha

Maybe I should take a second editing
attempt :)
