accessories



Asos Modern Amour cuff and boyNYC Dinosaur cuff


My favorite pieces of the moment, the Asos Modern Amour Cuff in rose gold came in the mail this week and is by far my current fav (and that for 15 UK pounds) It really goes with everything.

And the Dinosaur cuff from boyNYC, which ever fails to make me want to watch Jurassic park..

Wildfox's premiere Swim 2012








Pictures by: Mark the Cobrasnake

Can't wait for the Wildfox Swim collection to come out.. 

And seriously, I want my hair and make-up to be like this! I never seem to manage to get a smokey eye. You see, I always end up looking like (quote from Luluandyourmom) "a Panda Hooker"

I think this season's must have bikini's are the high-waist swimmies from American Apparel seen here and here.

Sparkle+Fade knitted shorts




I'm wearing; diy-cut ebay Horse tee, Urban Outfitters Sparkle&Fade knitted shorts, H&M sneakers

Today's outfit;
The Urban Outfitters knitted shorts are brilliant! Really a dangerous choice since Whizzbee loves to go berserk on knits, really an evil little mouse with an appetite for beautiful yarns. I can't help but love this little bugger!

Must Follow Blogs



1) painting the roses black

Amazing new blog that I discovered yesterday! I'm a fan!!

 2) I've got a lust for life

hmmm I kind of have a lust for Olivia's wardrobe......
Blogging from sunny LA, Olivia's outfits are always an inspiration, this girl has the most amazing collection of over the knee socks and bralettes that she effortly mixes in any outfit!

3) Frou Frouu

Nadia Sarwar’s FrouFrouu is still one of the best blogs out there, her knack for layering and incorporating menswear silhouettes are amazing and the gloomy photography leaves me breathless.

Finland's Marianna and her blog make me happy, her blog is a beautiful journey of fashion, food and her many travels.

Taghrid has always been one of my favorite blogs. 

Her distinctive own style and her photography have been a great influence for my own! This American Apparel insider is cutting edge and often 10 steps ahead making her blog very important for (and much visited by) Fashion Industry Insiders!

Heartthrobs











photos by; Me, Fashion Nerdic, Frou Frouu and I've got a lust for Life

We just came back from having dinner to the Hotel, it was already well after Midnight and we were having our last chats in the Waldorf Astoria Lobby Hall ready to say good night and ready to sleep after the crazy day we had..

Well that didn't happen because at that moment both me and Olivia caught a glimpse of the Lobby Hall restrooms, the entrance covered by a lush Asian dressing screen showed a faint glimpse of gold decorated mirrors and chandeliers and an amazing looking drag queen doing last touch ups to her make-up. So curiosity took over.. and then inside the camera took over.. Note that the restrooms are public so while we were sprawling on the floors people just walked in and out haha good times!..


Nadia (http://www.froufrouu.com/) is wearing; Vintage playsuit (similar one in stores at H&M) vintage belt and vintage hat.

Romwe peach Blouse, American Apparel Pleated Accordion Skirt, Karen Walker ‘One’ Sunglasses’ and Asos T-strap Platforms.

Ilanka (http://www.fashion-nerdic.com/) is wearing; Zara Top, Zara Trousers, Mellow Yellow Shoes via Sarenza, Mac lipstick.

I'm wearing; 3.1 Phillip Lim dress, Urban Outfitters twisted gold sandals.
