KEEPING IT SIMPLE

I have to admit that in Christmas rush I haven't had the time to post as much as I wish I would, but but...
So. this skirt is actually a part of a twin set (yupp, I own a twin set in tweed - but still - it's Balenciaga). However I was in the mood for just keeping it simple with a casual sweater and a bright clutch.I love the fact that the skirt almost looks holographic on the photos- an effect I was more than pleasantly surprised by as the intriguing brights are spot on for resort.
So, I am adding a pop of brights to my winter style as we barely see the sun nowadays...

A DAILY DOSAGE OF INSPIRATION

Although winter collections are slowly being replaced with resort and ss13 pieces I couldn't resist posting this lovely photo of Lou Doillon In Balmain captured for Madame Figaro. I have been more and mre addicted to this types of fashion photography that have a certain dose of realness in them as opposed to a posy editorial so for me this is a drop of inspiration heavily needed in this dark and gloomy days.

LEATHER PANTS

Leather pants was something I wanted to invest in for quite some time, yet never found the pair I really, really wanted. That is until I found these by Malene Birger which I have had on my mind lately, and  decided to get a pair when a pre-sale discount code landed in my mailbox. So, 40% off and a pair of kick-a** pants in the mail I can finally embrace winter, without being completely broke.

RELAXED

I have been on and off sick for the last couple of days, so my choice of clothing has been limited to the 

relaxed sweaters and dressed. However with the temperature jumping to the 10*C I felt an urge to go out for a stroll with my love and the choice fell on this sweaterdress by ACNE.
It's so warm and fuzzy, yet the cut of it embodies everything that I love about ACNE-it's not just a sweater dress, it's cut in the way that it broadens the shoulders and smallens the hips, which gives such a flattering shape, yet it remains relaxed and comfy.
I love the vivid burgundy paired with electric blue, and I wanted to accentuate that with a bold colored and completely contrasting bag, and my favorite accessories by Cooee to give it some edge .

The rest of it I kept simple.

GIVENCHY SS13 AD

The first pics of SS13 ad's are starting to pop up here and there, and for the moment Givenchy is on top of my list. One of the reasons is that what I perceived as a rigorous collection, was unexpectedly softened by this ad. I am loving the fact that Mariacarla is still 'kicking butt' and the fact that this is her baby evokes a certain warmth to the always strong Gienchy ad.

LIGHT BLUE

For some reason I have been coveting light blue items lately.I have actually had this particular color on my mind since MFW, without any obvious reason. I would pair a blue sweater with silver leather pants or a blue crossbody with the olive green dress, just to make it pop a little bit extra.
