Cowgirls and summer

This summer I'm trading my straw trilby hat for a straw cowboy hat to go with the perfect off-to-beach outfit.

O.C.

These are two of my favourite looks from Opening Ceremony's look book for spring/ summer 2009. I love the combination of cropped tops and high waist trousers and shorts.

Goddess summer

I definitely wouldn't mind spending warm summer nights in this fabolous goddess dress by Alexander Wang!

Ebay finds

Here are two of my latest Ebay finds: two pair of second hand jeans shorts. The first one is my favourite!

In details: Gucci exotica

For their spring/summer 2009 presentation, Gucci showed lots of bright colours, exotic prints, bright make up, trilby hats and not to mention gorgeous killer heels!

Great!

"Great"! I've gotten sick! So instead of reading for exams and going to work I'm home drinking loads of lemon tea and freshly squeezed orange juice while reading magazines and watching TV-series. It sounds great, but I can assure you it's not. If it wasn't for the fever and my super soar throat, this day would be perfect!

Denim and 80's hairstyle in British Vogue, April 2009. I've been searching for the perfect denim shirt for a while now, but still, no luck. Any ideas?

Girls just wanna have fun

I went out with Bettina from the fashion blog Style-to-go this Saturday. We've gone out together three weekends in a row now, and every weekend has been even better than the previous one. We have so much fun together, and even our girlfriends match perfectly together! I can't wait to see what kind of adventures spring and summer will bring!


Bettina wore: tailor made white jersey jumpsuit, sequined vest from H&M, silver rings, black shoulder bag and enviable gladiator heels from Zara.
I wore: second hand jeans shorts, flower printed top and black blazer from Gina Tricot, bag from Zara, silver rings from H&M, multichain necklace from Lindex and my Topshop heels.

And there was sun sun sun

My day had a rough start today, but as soon as the sun came out all worries went away. Oh, how I love spring!
For school today I wore: pants from Cubus, top from Gina Tricot, last year's denim jacket from Topshop, new shoes from Din Sko, necklace from Lindex, scarf and rings from H&M, bag from Vero Moda black collection.

Short shorts

Worn out jeans shorts are one of my favourite garments for spring and summer. Last year I wore my handy down jeans shorts repeatedly, so I figured why not invest in a couple more before summer arrives. Ebay became my rescue, and now I'm waiting for my mail man to hand over two pair of second hand, worn out jeans shorts (one of them with studs!). I just hope they will be as fab in real life as they were on the pictures...

Floral prints and denim shorts paired up with half opaque tights is the perfect way to transit your wardrobe from winter to spring. When summer arrives, you can easily drop the tights, trade the black blazer and shoes for white, and voila, you have the perfect summer outfit!

Mischa Barton

In my opinion, Mischa Barton has had some ups and downs when it comes to fashion. This outfit is without doubt one of her ups! Simple, yet a bit rock chic. Exactly my taste!

DIY: Shredded tee

Easter break is the perfect time to do things you usually don't have time to do. I had intentions of getting some school work done, but ended up doing everything else instead. Among other things, I came up with the idea of finally shredding a t-shirt, something I've wanted to try out for a long time. And here's the result! It wasn't as hard as I thought, and since I used a thin and loose t-shirt it didn't take more time than the duration of a James Bond movie (approximately two hours).
I used THIS tutorial. Thank you, Camille!

I love this:

I love this combination of ripped tights, vintage Chanel and Louboutins.

NUDE MOOD

For spring and summer I will definitely go for lighter and brighter colours than what I've been wearing this winter. I've already fallen in love with the nude and light pink colour scheme. The colours will look great with a light summer tan, a pair of light brown sandals, and Ray Ban Clubmasters.

Florals plus leather

This is how I will be wearing my floral printed dress this season. With biker leather jacket and black and silver accessories it will be different than last year's bohemian look.

Spring mood

Yesterday was the perfect day off! Lazy Sunday was followed by lazy Monday with a late morning, Gossip Girl and café- and outdoor-bar hangouts with friends. That's what Easter break is all about, right?

I wore my "I just got out of bed" hair, black tights, denim shorts from Topshop, white shirt and black blazer from Gina Tricot, Vero Moda Black coll. bag, shoes from Din Sko and Ray Ban Clubmasters.

Sorry for my absence the last couple of days. I've been busy catching up with old friends and making new ones. I've had the best weekend since forever!
Pop in tomorrow for Monday's outfit!
Lots of love, Ida!
