Margaux Lonnberg aka the superskinny girl in self-designed, barely-there t-shirts. Which seem just perfect. A girl can never have too many of those I-just-rolled-out-of-bed tops. I really like the hair&make-up here, they go so well with the feel of the clothes. My mom would probably recommend a shower here (maybe MacDonald's, too), but since messy and slept in hit the runways with Proenza Schouler etc a couple of seasons ago, showers seem to be so not cool!

You can buy the t-shirts on Lonnberg's website. You will also find more models and photos there, as well as the story behind the project. Or you could always take an old, worn out tee, grab a pair of scissors and let the the magic begin, although the DYI cutting is never as easy as it sounds.

Have a nice Wednesday, it's time to hit the books!

5 days with parka

I love a parka! I am currently searching for the perfect one, and that one from Mango is quite nice. Really warm. To me, it looks great paired with anything, but mainly: ankle boots, lace, patterns, and smart things, like the collared shirt or silky dress.

wish

Today I wish I was wearing:

T by Alexander Wang crew neck sweater and shirt,

Proenza Schouler yellow skirt and satchel, 

Aurelie Bidermann bracelet and D&G booties. 

Yellow, navy and grey look beyond amazing together.

Have a lovely weekend!

I love this ASOS bag: its burgundy color, suede finish 

with snakeskin texture and the golden elements. 

Not to mention the shape. Very much my style.

Shine on

I love shiny stuff. Remember my post on metallic nail polishes? A friend of mine says that I have a thing for armor-esque clothing, but not all that glitters looks like medieval protective apparel! It felt as though I was alone in my love for all that shines. But yesterday I read a text about this season's sparke at style.com and I recalled that my lurex dress was worn by all of my friends last year (such a relief! I am not the only one) . And that I always loved the lurex socks that Cassie worn in Skins (sorry, but I can't find a photo). And Cassie's vintage, golden dresses. And maybe it has something to do with my sign being Leo that sparkle always catches my eye.

I always loved lists, so here is one: of my 5 most wanted glittery pieces right now:

1.  Fairground Beaded Dress By Dress Up Topshop**

    Just wow. I don't think I could wear it, and it seems to be heavy. But still, wow.

2. Len Edwards gold sequin top, vintage

    I regret not buying it so much!

3. Metallic Raffia fringed skirt by Matthew Williamson

  This little skirt combines my three favorite features of clothes: metallic elements, texture and soft pink.

4. Golden shirt by Michael Kors

    Is there anything that would look better with collar and cuffs peeping from an oversized black sweater?

   

 

5.  Anglomania Lee skinny copper jeans

     I wonder if I can get that effect, spraying dark gold paint over old skinnies. 

 

Anyways, I am really tired. Going to bed. Maybe I will dream of a way to earn enough to buy those wonderful pieces.
