love at first sight - by DvF


I love pink! You can probably tell from my blog anyway, but I thought I'd confirm it. I wear a lot of black and white, but pink has a special place in my heart. Usually I accossorize with pink to add a hint of colour to an outfit. Add a nice pink clutch to a simple LBD and it lifts it up straight away. There are so many possibilities and I think if you find the right shade, pink suits everyone. Even a nice pink lipstick when you're feeling down, is guaranteed to cheer you up. So you can imagine how excited I was when I found the above dress. This leather number is by Diane von Furstenberg and available where else than net-a-porter.com (another of my loves). The colour is perfect, as is the cut. Very flattering and great for the party season. This time I suggest very simple accessories, like black clutch, black ankle boots or sandals and a big cocktail ring. There you go, another great outfit sorted. Have a stylish day.

My Current jean affair


Although I get periods when I'm more into dresses and leggins I am a jean girl through and through. I mean what's not to like? You can dress them up and dress them down and accessorized well, they're perfect for nearly every occasion(there are exceptions when only LBD will do!). Plus there are so many styles, cuts and shapes I dare you not to find the perfect fit! And the right pair will last you for years! I have and ongoing love affair with Diesel. Italian certainly know how to make clothes, and these jeans are so well made, comfy and look so cool! But I thought it was time to find something new. To get out of my comfort zone. The search is over. Thanks to CURRENT/ELLIOTT - the amarican label that's been causing headlines since it launched in July 2008. Pretty new label, but has already made its way into places like Selfridges and Harrods and many indpenedent boutiques. Found by stylist duo Emily Current and Meritt Elliott, you can see their love for original fashion and a bit of quirkiness. Just check out their website Currentelliott.com and see for yourself. American Vogue said (July 2008) ; "The most refreshing denim line to come out of LA's jean scene in a long, long time." And who am I to argue with Anna Wintour..
