Boots from Bronx

Endelig fikk jeg skaffet meg disse skoene fra Bronx! De er et godt alternativ til de fantastiske skoene fra Chloé som jeg bare kan drømme om. Det skal bli godt med en liten pause fra hælene innimellom så disse skoene er veldig velkomne. Å finne flate sko som jeg liker er et problem. I denne omgang fant jeg overraskende nok to par! Nå venter jeg spent på at det andre skal komme med posten..

Finally I got these boots from Bronx! They’re a good alternative to the fabulous Chloé boots that I can only dream about. Taking a break from heels once in a while will be great so these shoes are very much welcome. To find flats that I like is really a problem. This time I found two pairs, surprisingly enough. Now I’m waiting impatiently for the second one to arrive..

Lately I’ve been obsessed with floor-long dresses and skirts. I’m not quite sure about how good it will look on a short person (aka. me), but I’m satisfied with admiring it on others for now. Another obsession is lipcolor. I recently found a shade of red that I feel suits me. Now I find myself craving other colors as well. It’s a small detail that really makes a difference to any outfit.

Maya Vik, the girl who plays bass in the band Montée, is one of the most stylish girls in Norway if you ask me. Her style is amazing. And she’s definitely one of those to blame for my desire to have a blonde afro. That hair gives the little extra to any outfit. She’s hands down gorgeous.

Monki

Etter å ha tilbrakt den siste uka syk på sofaen var det godt med en gladnyhet i dag. Det er kanskje ikke interessant for så mange andre enn de som er i nærheten av byen jeg bor i men; Monkigirl kommer til Kristiansand! Basisplagg med en spennende vri til billige priser gjør Monki til en av mine favoritter. Jeg gleder meg! Fædrelandsvennen kunne opplyse om at de flytter inn på Postgården før jul en gang. Ventetiden skal med andre ord ikke være veldig lang. I tillegg til å åpne butikk i Kristiansand skal det også komme butikker i Bergen og Oslo. Trykk på bildet for å besøke Monki sin hjemmeside hvor man kan ta en titt på nåværende kolleksjon.

After spending the last week on the sofa it was good to recieve happy news today. It’s probably not interesting for others except from those who live near my city but; Monkigirl is comming to Kristiansand. Basics with an interesting twist to affordable prices makes Monki one of my favorites. I’m looking forward to it! In addition to opening a store in Kristiansand they will open stores in Bergen and Oslo as well. Click on the image to visit Monki’s webpage where you can see the current collection.

DIY | H&M customized bustier 

Dette er sluttresultatet av bustieren jeg jobbet med. Den ser enda bedre ut i virkeligheten og jeg må si at jeg er veldig fornøyd! En av dere spurte hvordan jeg festet perlene; jeg brukte nål og tråd. Men istedetfor å sy på en og en, festet jeg så mange jeg kunne med den samme tråden. Det går så mye fortere. Hele greia tok ikke lang tid i det hele tatt å gjøre ferdig så det er et veldig enkelt gjør-det-selv prosjekt. Dette prosjektet har definitivt gitt meg mersmak.

This is the end result of the bustier I was working on. It looks even better IRL and I must say I’m very pleased with the way it turned out! One of you asked how I attached the pearls; I used thread and a needle. But instead of sewing on one and one, I attached as many as I could on the same thread. That way is so much faster. It din’t take much time at all to finish this so it’s a pretty easy DIY. This has definitely made me want to try some more DIYs.

Photo by Line

Mens jeg var på ferie mottok jeg noen bilder fra Line som hun tok for [mag] til en streetstyle seksjon da jeg var i Oslo i sommer. Bildet hun valgte er i septemberutgaven. Jeg anbefaler dere å sjekke ut bloggen hennes her. Jeg er alltid begeistret når hun legger ut bilder bak scenene fra fotoshoots og stilen hennes er veldig inspirerende.

While I was on vacation I recieved some photos from Line that she took for the magazine [mag] for a streetstyle section when I was in Oslo this summer. The photo she chose is in the current issue. I recommend you to check out her blog here. I’m always amazed when she posts behind the scenes photos from photoshoots and her style is inspirational as well.

Givenchy Spring 2010

There is something about the sheer draping fabric and neutral colors that really attract me. 
Just like Karoline I fell for these dreamy dresses. You should check her blog if you haven’t.
I have been on the look for something similar to this. Finally I have a image of what I want.
You can see more of the collection here on style.com.

I have been on vacation at the cabin with my family the last week so I’m a little after on the most recent collections. It was great to come home and see so many updates on style.com. You can expect to see more posts like this the following days. Some of you may have seen what I post before, but I don’t think it will hurt you to see it again.
