Broken record

It’s hard to believe that today it was actually possible to go outside without a jacket or a sweater, and enjoy the first ice cream (Italian of course!) of the season in the great outdoors. I guess you can officially say that summer is coming.

The temperature rise has left me kind of clueless when it comes to dressing-up; adjusting your wardrobe to a sudden heat wave is a bit of burden for layer lover like me. Luckily, I had been far-sighted and purchased this black Nakkna dress from my Stockholm trip a few weeks ago, thinking it would be perfect little dress for those hot summer days. Little did I know that it would be needed much faster than anyone could imagine.

Today also stands significant for me because I got the well deserved break from wearing any type of drop-crotch pants and at the same time finally changed this broken record of mine. So, summer and dresses, I’m ready for you! Are you ready for me?

It must be love

It’s been raining a lot for the past week but a few days ago the sky cleared up for a second, and I finally got the chance to take out my Rick Owens wedges for a stroll. They are so comfy that in Sweden after walking a whole day and dancing all night in them, my feet were perfectly fine. These shoes are literally paying themselves back by the minute.

Speaking of Stockholm, here I’m wearing two of my purchases from the trip: the stone washed circle scarf (which is a perfect cover for those rainy days) and the white t-shirt with a draped front (something I’ve been looking for ages). The rest of my buys were also more or less basics, as I’m trying to save for a Paris trip in June. Yup, that’s right, I’m going to the men’s fashion week and couldn’t be more excited! The wedges will of course travel with me, I don’t think there is an occasion that I would go without them. It must be love, love, love…

I dreamt that I was dreaming, that I was awake in a dream

Happiness comes in different shapes and forms. This time it came in a very familiar gray box, despite the little delay caused by the lovely Eyjafjallajoekull’s ashes and the Finnish post office. I’m literally in seventh heaven right now: After a two years long wait they are finally mine, the Rick Owens wedge ankle boots! I just might have to sleep with them on tonight, that’s how euphoric I feel. Lots of outfit pictures to come with these bad boys, that’s a promise.

Zippers and Lilies

Being sick is no fun but at least I got something exciting to keep me thinking about the better days that lie ahead: A new couple called Ann Demeulemeester and Rick Owens has just moved into my wardrobe, and aren’t they a fancy one? It’s definitely a love story of opposites attracting, one being dreamy soft and the other hard as steel. Together they will compliment my spring looks, as soon as I’ve defeated this darn flu and got back on my feet (and high heels) again.
