WHAT YA DOIN'??

 Today's! I'll try to post the pics of the whole outfit today but, no promises as I have really so much to do and am drop dead tired. BUT I want to thank you all for all the lovely comments lately (t really warms my heart!)and I'll try to respond to them during today.

More details abou the outfit are coming...

Anyways what have you been doing/wearing today, something to suit the icy weather that is creeping in, or is it still lovely and mild at your place??

Love,

A DASH OF SOARLY NEEDED INSPIRATION

Elin, Hanneli and Miroslava Duma in what has to be the most inspiring ad the whole season.

I love that fashion is taking a step away from all the seriousness and is drifting into 'big dose of fun, candy clouds and blue skies' direction.

The other clip is from upcoming Vogue documentary that I al looking forward like crazy to!I mean I watched The September issue over ten times (for educational purpose, but still...)

BIG,BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL

Isn't it obvious why I called the post BIG, BOLD and BEAUTIFUL as this coat is exactly all that.

NO question asked. I bought it last year at H&M and is my must have for the winter (and all the winters to come until it literary falls apart from the extensive wear and misuse).
I am completely down the aran knit in the winter lane (and these most often come in beige), but it was perfect matching the mighty red with the beigy sweater.

And the prefect sweater goes perfectly with a pair of skinthight jeans.

A pair of pilgrim heels makes the whole thing more quirky and right down the Christmas inspo lane.

H&M Trend read coat, vintage aran knit sweater, JBrand jeans, Marc by Marc Jacobs heels, Manual bag and Illesteva sunnies.

GRACELAND

On it's way and soon in my mail is non other than a book about Grace Coddington. l I have been quite taken by her, or rather her creativity and way to express herself, so a little window into her world and way of thinking was highly coveted at our address.

can't wait to lay my hands on it!

THE VICTIM OF MURPHY'S LAW

Now, have you ever experienced that you just buy something expensive and most wanted(in my case a pair of Givenchy heels) , and you think that it can't be better than THIS, just so that in couple of days something EVEN better pops up?? !

I call that Murphy's low of shopping  and although it's not happening often, this royal pain in the b**t occurs from time to time.

This time the revelation came in the looks of the coolest heels from Proenza Schouler on sale on Bergdorf Goodman and in my size!

LUCKILY(I don't know about that now) they still do not offer international shipping so I have avoided the 'to buy' or 'not to buy' dilemma....

My bank and my fiance are quite satisfied with this.

I, on the other side, am not.

BLACK FRIDAY!

Black Friday and naturally black outfit. Now I have arrived home in Kristiansand and will use it for hard needed rest. So, not so much on the agenda than a good rest and loads of home made pastries.

I am still taken by the Christmas spirit I experienced in Oslo, so I will be making wishlists during the weekend.

How will you spend yours??

I am weraing 3.1. Philip Lim Interasia sweater, Diesel jeans, Manual purse, Isabel Marant heels

P.S Happy Thanksgiving to all who may celebrate it!
