THE CUT

OutfitsParis

Paris May 2014

So of course I couldn’t keep myself from getting something from & Other Stories. Simply too much goodies there at the moment! To my happy surprise they just got in these sandwashed silk blouses that I sense are as close as possible to perfection. Hidden buttons, petit collar (goes perfect to a slim tie or a jolie bow-tie) and your everyday denim or skirt. Every third year I like to update my black and white blouses and prefarable I go slightly over-sized, so therefore I go up 1 or 2 sizes. Like the sporty unexpected twist to this devine fabric thus I match it with a Calvin Klein bra under it during the day and for the evening I suggest you go with a lace bra. Love the transparent feel without getting too obvious, if you see what I mean.

VIKA FOR & OTHER STORIES

Fashion

Vika for Stories

One of my favorite collaborations at the moment is this one between the Moscow-based designer Vika Gazinskaya and Stories. It’s a RTW, shoe and accessories collections consisting of polka-dots, signature blue and crayon prints. Minimalistic chic and not too many pieces, which I like – right on spot so to say. My personal favorite is of course this drop-dead gorgeous red dress that no wonder was sold-out in a second. Tough, I crossing fingers for a refill this week. What’s your favorite co-labs at the moment or are we starting to grow tired of them?

LIVE LIKE THERE’S NO TOMORROW

New York

roof deck party We all have those fanastic moments and memories in life that you simply can’t seem to forget but sometimes you really need to be reminded of them again. When that happens to you, it all strucks you how freaking fabulous life can be and is. Speaking of New York yesterday it all brings me back (without knowing it) to my second year around back in 2010. I strongly remember it being the the first real summer day where there’s no jackets, no sweaters, no clouds, no fuss, no tomorrow and my friend Meggie texts me: “Down for a roof party foxy?” What do think I replied? “Hell yeah! Bring it on!”. So there we are, me and Sara, grabbing the first best L train back from the Brooklyn flea market, hitting the liquor store and then a taxi – BOOM caught in Tribeca with a view and apartment not even worth trying to describe. A simply magic evening at the Marc’s. Clicky click on MORE for a the whole story. Enjoy your Saturday! We finally got sun here in Paris!

FLASHBACK FRIDAY

New YorkOutfits

NYFW

If you’re reading my Instagram you might have noticed that I miss New York tremendously for the moment. On top of that my French iPhone accidently got iCloud-connected (can I say that?) with my stolen American cell and voilà just like that I’m thrown back three, four years of photos. So happy to still have them (thank you iCloud again) yet it’s so crazy when you haven’t seen them ages. Here’s a summer day back 2010 somewhere on Central Park West in a jersey top by Acne Studios, blazer from H&M Trend, city shorts from Zara, Neely bag by Mulberry, BB pumps by Manolo Blahnik and sunnies by Proenza Schouler.

BEAUTY NOTES

BEAUTY PRODUCTS NOTES

If there’s anywhere in the world to be, speaking of beauty, it’s Paris. I’ve become a complete addict lately to all the pharmacies that’s around the corner. And also the fact, that these are the only shops open on Sundays, doesn’t make it easier… Either people hurt themselves/get sick way more often than they need groceries (still haven’t figured out why Monoprix is closed on Sundays) or they’re simply addicted to beauty. It got to be the later (or at least to me since I’m rarly sick). Never have I’ve been this much into trying a new lotion, new moisturizer, new cleanser, new-anything. And let me put it this way, it has become my new Sunday ritual. It’s simply so much fun to go through the jungle of beauty products here – I can’t stop myself from doing it. There’s something for everything, for si for so (note I’m a pretty simple person in only wanting one cleanser and one moisturizer). Thus, I thought I share a few products I’ve fallen in love with. First out are the cleanser and moisturizer from BIODERMA. It’s true what they say during fashion week. This makes the make-up come off in a heartbeat without an allergic reaction. The moisturizer I just happen to buy at the same time and it’s really great and affordable. I just noticed it takes away red spots. Isn’t it silly, in NYC I would try every beverage possible, in Stockholm any new salad I come across and in Parii it’s all about the different creams.

WEEKLY STYLE NOTES

weekly style notes

Alright traveling sometimes throws the blog out of the loop but trust me I have not forgotten Weekly Style Notes. The only thing on my mind right now seems to be luxe espadrilles or actually every since Chanel launched their Classic Canvas Cap Toe I’ve been tempted to get a pair. And right now my attention are on the Christian Louboutin hyper chic cobalt-blue satin ones. Available @Net-a-Porter.
