Rainbows

Time for happy colors! I had a fantastic time in portugal and the colorful style there inspired this post. Sorry for bad blogging but it was great to have some time for myself and just enjoy being around family and friends and well, the sun for a change.

All colors in one and a little bit of I don’t care.. 

Black vs. White

A classic. But why choose when black and white look so good together? My favorite pieces in the sexiest non-colors for this summer..

details: tassels

While I was shopping for my carnival costume, I found these tassels at an arts and crafts shop. Really quick DIY action and there it was, a tassel necklace. The only other thing you need for it is a thread. Piece of cake.

Lovely, don’t you think?

Lisbon Street Style

I’m having the most wonderful time in my third home town, Lisbon. Today, I went to Chiado to do a little shopping with my cousin and to captivate a few examples of Lisbon’s great street style.

Thank you to all you dear strangers for posing for me!

current favorites

This is what my list on fashiolista looks like these days. What a romantic color palette, very dreamy, yet the silhouettes are sharp and I’m very much into structural pieces. Isn’t the apricot suede jacket from Acne divine?

Weekday pre-launch

Today Weekday is launching their new MTWTFSSWEEKDAY collection. It features high quality items and the finest fabrics such as cashmere, silk and leather.

Last night was the pre-launch and I was able to take a look at this highly anticipated collection.

I loved almost every garment, one could really tell they were of great quality. Weekday presented a wonderful collection. As usual effortless in simplicity and a low-key color palette, but smarter than ever and definitely more chic. As I had expected, my favorite was the white sweater.

I left my wallet at home though, sparkling wine was being served and I know the risk of drinking and shopping.

Also, there was a band from Sweden called Navet. You can check out some of their tracks here.

Here are some pictures from the event..

Their singer Julia was so lovely.

Unfortunately the trio was not complete, because their guitarist was sick – get better soon!

bad ass

Cute exterior and a bad ass attitude are a great combination for success.

At the Topshop Unique A/W 2012 show Azealia Banks sat in the front row and watched the models walk down the runway to her song 212.

I’m so excited about her project with Lana del Rey, can’t wait to hear what those two will create.

Today’s details

Today I’m wearing Cheap Monday jeans, a vintage shredded knit top and my glitter clutch from Zara. Also, I have a new nail polish: it’s a matte top coat from p2 over an olive nail polish from Kiko. I think it looks really cool over pale hues.
I have a really bad nail polish addiction. I can not go into a drug store and leave without a new color. But at least I mostly buy the really cheap ones..

look.. Theyskens’ Theory

I particularly enjoyed this collection shown at NYFW. Lots of sheer and leather and the contrast of hard and soft could also be seen in the silhouettes. Their girl looks tough, confident and independent. Very wearable collection, very street. Loved it.

I need a suit. Found this one at ASOS, it’s been on my wish list for months, I should just go for it and buy it already..
