TOP h&m LEATHER PANTS gina tricot BAG mulberry ORANGE NAILPOLISH mny

Wearing leather pants proved to be a bad idea once I got outside this morning. The heat made them squeak, which was quite embarrassing as I had to visit a lot of quiet locations today, the library for instance. Got a lot of sour looks and comments, and in the end I surrendered and ran home. Spent the reminder of the evening reading about René Descartes and methodological skepticism. Feel quite clever now, and will finish of the intellectual stimuli by reading a few chapters more of my Vonnegut-book.

In other news I am in love with my MNY nail polish. I am no expert at applying nail polish (far from it), but even I can manage a close-to-perfect coat on both hands. They cost next to nothing (39 kroner I think?) and exist in all the colors of the rainbow ++

SHIRT gina tricot LEATHER SHORTS zara  BOOTS bianco

Hey guys, I have spent the last few days at the University, trying to stay awake and learn new things. Took a break the other day between lectures to visit Mildh PR and have a look at Gina Tricot’s new party collection. Did not find all that much but I did like a some of the dresses and necklaces (see pictures). And of course the fact that they were serving candy hearts, my cravings for sugar is over the top these days when I can’t afford buying any candy.

This dress can be sort of awesome paired with simple accessories, black tights and pumps.

Met Linn & Mira and nearly died in the sudden heat wave.

Think I might need this necklace as well.

Also met Nora & Ida again. Loved Nora’s jacket.

Anyways, last night was all about the fact that THE MENTALIST is back on TV, new episodes and everything. Popcorn, Pepsi Max and The Mentalist is the perfect recipe for a Wednesday night, that and a friend who is as much of a fan as I am. NOW, I am heading out to attend the re-opening of the 4th floor at Steen&Strøm, Natt&Dag launch and some other stuff. Have a wonderful evening, peeps (with Bones on TV at 21:30). :D

DRESS marie’s VEST second-hand BOOTS whyred BAG marc by marc jacobs

Yesterday I attended the pre-launch of L’Oreal and Maybelline’s new make-up line MNY. Loads of colors, cupcakes and cute bloggers. But more on that later, NOW I need to get out of bed and out of the apartment. The sun is shining and Tronsmo (the legendary bookstore at Tullinløkka) are having their annual “backyard”-sale. I always find something to fall in love with. Mostly comic books. Such a fan of the all the classic Marvel-series, as well as Fables and other fantasy-related comics.

Morning song: Nancy Sinatra – Summer Wine.

(ps! sorry for the state of my pictures lately, my camera has been acting childish and needs a little retouch.)

Got featured on DagensOutfit.blogg.no.

I just think this site is a wonderful idea and a good way to discover some of those hidden gems that exist on blogs out there. So many people that dress über fresh who deserves the spot light and DagensOutfit helps them achieve that. Go visit here.

First day of school today. Starting my last year on my bachelor in English Literature, as well as my third semester with Political Science. My hair is greesy, I am tired and I don’t do breakfast at 8am, but I am still looking forward to starting school again. New subjects, new curriculum, new students (well, some new at least) and new notebooks. Wish my hair would look like something other than a mess though, I miss my Toni&Guy Dry Shampoo! Does anyone know if they sell that in Oslo? I’m an  addict of sorts.

Well, gotta run, time waits for no one.

A better picture of the outfit from Wednesday. Fever still hanging on, but I’m pondering if should just give damn, down 4 pain killers and go out anyway. I had a little trip around town earlier today to get some air, and although it didn’t work out too well then, it might just do now..? I’m quoting Diesel here: Stupid might fail, smart doesn’t even try.

I vote yes. Be stupid.

DRESS h&m fashion against aids LEATHER VEST + NECKLACE second-hand BAG 5preview BRA h&m

Started the day with a beer and Simon Rasmussen’s eccentric show at Carlsberg, inspired by prostitutes and hobos. While the two first models poured milk all over themselves and showed off some pretty nasty dance moves (they were good btw!), I did not find it as provoking as it was probably meant to be, but I nevertheless enjoyed the show. Felt nice to have a break from the serious and clean that we’ve seen a lot during this fashion week.

Jumped into the press bus and was transported to the City Hall to see the designer we all love, Veronica B Vallenes and met Celine (love her bracelet). This is btw what Maria has been busy doing a lot the last few days, posing for the camera. No wonder with the clothes she wears (of which most is self-made. Raise your hands everyone who wants her to start her own clothing line right now).

Also met Line – who looked smashing with her hat. Took some pictures at Veronica’s show, but I am not even going to pretend that they were any good (they were crap), so go see them here. Liked her collection a lot, but was disappointed by the fact that she didn’t really bring anything new to the table. You could take anything from this seasons collection and place it in last season’s, and although I would wear just about every piece of the collection, I had wished for something new in forms of the color palette or seams.

The day continued with an all Norwegian show consisting of Iis of Norway, TSH, Undorn and Moods of Norway. Loved this top from TSH and the new shoes from Moods of Norway (will get back to you on a picture of those, because they were really cool and something I would love for my guys to wear), but other than that it was unfortunately pretty mediocre compared to everything else I have seen during this fashion week.

Paraded around with my new bag from 5preview (don’t you love it just a little? I certainly do) outside the Minimarket show, another show I enjoyed very much but which gave me pictures that were pretty much not in any condition to see the light of day. So once again, to see pictures of the gorgeous Sahara/nomad-inspired collection, go here.

Last show of the evening was a magical, mystical and weird show on top of a bridge over a lake in a some park (I admit I didn’t have a clue where we were, had a private chauffeur to the show and took a cab back), put together by the well-known brand Henrik Vibskov. The colors, patterns, fabrics and seams were in traditional Vibskov-style and I concluded with the fact that I would gladly include a lot of the garments in my wardrobe, including some of the very handsome male models.

And then it was party time !

Spent the first hours of my day today at a cafe called Cafe Europa 1989 at Høybro Plads, reading The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera (nearly finished it now), drinking coffee and waiting for Maria to arrive.

Moved along to breakfast/brunch and champagne at Dyreberg&Kern, and while most of the others stood around sipping on a glass champagne (or orange juice), we were more concerned with eating enough cupcakes than actually getting a good look at the new collection.

Did fall in love with this necklace and it’s not too expensive either, so it might just happen to slip right into my accessory collection. Out of the blue you know, not because I spent my student loan on necklaces instead of food and other so-called vital needs.

Lost one bus, didn’t locate the other and finally jumped into a taxi which drove us to the Danish Design School’s show, which was just about as out-there as bachelor collections should be. This particular “outfit” reminds me of the last VATLE show for some reason.

Felt a sort of childish love for the red scarf around her head, and had to resist pretty ridiculous cravings to make one on my own. Think it looks a lot better on the model than it will ever do on me.

Sat thinking about how these would be the perfect new shades for Monica/Miss Harmonica, when I was hit..

.. by the wonder that was these shoes. I don’t even really want to wear them. I just want to have them on display in my bookshelves. Pretty please?

Had to take a break after the shoe-gasm and calm down with a cup of coffee and force Maria to take pictures of me. 90% featured me with my trademark goofy face, luckily I look sort of normal on this one. Sort of.

After the well-deserved coffeebreak we attended the Official Opening of Copenhagen Fashion Week, and while I thought the clothes being shown (YDE) were a bit boring, I loved the interior of the room, which was located in the City Hall. Almost regal.

Didn’t really get any good pictures from Spon Diogo + Moonspoon Saloon so we’ll just skip elegantly passed those two shows for the time being and continue going through the events of the day. Lunch break meant facebook – mail – facebook – facebook – facebook. Neh, I’m not a facebook-addict. I just like spending 90% of my time on the internet snooping around in other peoples lives and leading a wannabee social life on fb.

Tried to take a decent outfit photo and realized that I probably should have done that about 4 hours earlier when the sun was still shining. Will hopefully learn and don’t do the same mistake tomorrow.

When we got tired of taking breaks we hit the streets and ended up on the Bllack Noir show. Heavily influenced (in my opinion) by Diesels Black&Gold line, I was more interested in the fact that Danish producer, song-writer and X-factor judge; Remee, was sitting right behind us. Probably the only Danish celebrity I know of (except for Mads Mikkelsen), so I was slightly starstruck.

Finished the day with Soulland, a show which contained plenty of eye candy as well as a collection that I certainly wouldn’t mind dressing any of my boys in. Casual, fresh, simple (in every positive way) and very Danish. You can view pictures of the entire collection here.

NOW, bed. <3
