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 ++

Suddenly feel like grabbing a pair of scissors and re-do my jeans shirt.

Spending the day inside reading Kurt Vonnegut “God bless you, Mr Rosewater”. Would have ventured out and up to the market at Birkelunden, I know a lot of people who’s selling clothes and jewelery there today, but I don’t have any money, and this books is just too good to stop reading now.

Thinking about starting on Kamran Nazeer’s “Send In the Idiots” after I am done with this one, have any of you read it, and if so, can you recommend it?

Good friends + Ellie Golding + Drake + good wine = pure happiness.

Party time.

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

H&M’s new design collaboration will be with the French high fashion house Lanvin. The collection consist of both women and men’s wear, and will be in stores on November 23d. Can’t say I am not excited about this. Lanvin is one of the greatest fashion houses there is, and even though I wasn’t all that excited about their collaboration with Acne, I have big hopes for this collection.

I’m going to take a break for a few days, see you around.

Pictures from the MNY launch yesterday. MNY is L’Oreal/Maybelinne’s new make up line, and the “numero uno” thing we learned yesterday, is that MNY is all about colors. Usually I tend to go for brown, black or other dark colors, but I am actually quite intrigued by the thought of using more colors, and while it might take a while to add color to my wardrobe, make up might be the first step.

Saida and Maja looking fresh.

No blogger-party without cupcakes, and these tasted out-of-this-world-delicious. (I started drooling at the sight of them..)

Mira and Linn were also among the bloggers attending, and looked quite smashing.

Got some green eyes shadow applied and learnt a great trick that I will put to use tonight. If you apply some black eyeliner and sooth the eye first, and then put the eye shadow on top, those areas will be darker. On the picture the make up artist used a light green tone only, so the part that is almost yellow is the part that is applied directly on the skin, while the green part has eyeliner underneath. Cool, huh?

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.)
