New in: Zara glitter clutch
I’ve been looking for an evening purse and today at Zara I see this wonderful clutch. I’d only ever seen it online until now – and today it was on sale! Now it’s mine.

not only for jocks
Last year we saw a lot of street style photos with girls in their track pants and pointy heels (my personal favorite: the devine Columbine, Elin Klings friend and coworker here – she can really pull off this look). Now we’re seeing very sporty pieces on the runway – especially Isabel Marant and Alexander Wang incorporated the athletic chic in their spring ’12 collections.
I’m all for comfortable, but you won’t see me wearing a track suit any time soon. I’m just not athletic. And clothes won’t make me work out more, or will they?
Here are some pieces that are sporty, chic and comfortable. Yes please!

virtual shopping cart
These are the items on my ASOS wish list. Obviously, I’m into bright and shiny.

look.. Free People goes NYC
I’m in the middle of applying for summer school at NYU so I thought this lookbook would be appropriate, as kitsch as it might be. Nice styling though, especially the red jacket and the blue dress.

longing for spring
One of my favorite spring collections was by Phillip Lim, I found the color palette to be absolutely gorgeous. The milkshake colors (many call them sorbet, which just isn’t the adequate term in my opinion) also appeared in several other collections, e.g. Acne, Louis Vuitton, Mulberry.
I love that lilac and mint are coming back and light blue goes with pretty much anything. Can’t wait to add a few soft hues to my closet.

forever young (adult)
Just the indie flick I feel like watching. I’m really intrigued by the idea of this movie: a prom queen – 15 years after high school she’s the loser. Charlize Theron ages really well though, she’s hot.
Definitely on my watch list. The trailer says it all:

If only I could have..
all Acne shoes in the world!
These are from the S/S 2012 collection. How amazing are the new Alice Silk pumps in different shades of blue? I could have them if I worked 45 hours.. I also really like the Audrey Silk pumps in fuchsia, but the other ones are sort of timeless. Shop them here.

must see: la piel que habito
The movie of the year for me was Pedro Almodóvar’s latest la piel que habito – the skin I live in. I watched it a few days ago and it has been haunting me ever since.
I’m a long time fan of Almodóvar’s work and this was no exception. It’s very difficult to explain it, the less you know going in, the better. I can’t even tell you the genre, it’s drama, thriller, horror, sci-fi all in one. Stunning visuals and a story that will shock you.
A brilliant plastic surgeon (Antonio Banderas) has developed a new impenetrable skin by experimenting with a beautiful woman (Elena Anaya) who is his personal guinea pig locked up in a room in his house. The surgeon is haunted by past tragedies and therefore has no morals whatsoever. Rated R.
I can’t tell you any more – find out for yourself.
