sweet and cute

Okay guys it's been two months since my last post. I have been taking a break because I have been busy with organising my internship in the capital and finishing my last courses at school. But now I'm back again, but I know for sure I will never be one of those bloggers who post every day, or even every other day. I just don't have time and also not enough to say! But I should be able to post a bit more often that every two months...!

I wanted to share with you my obsession with one of my style icons; Lauren Conrad. I love her style, it's girly, preppy and overall very adorable. I used to be very boho-chick type, but lately my style has turned to more simple yet chic, like Lauren's.



Okay have a great weekend everyone! xx

I love those heels!

I really like Rachel Zoe. I love her style, especially because she is obsessed with vintage (like me) and her style takes inspiration from the hippies but of course incorporates also latest fashion trends. I like that mix! Oh, and I love the pumps in the first picture, so incredible... I wish I could get them too (and also be able to walk with them more than 50 meters!).

Enjoy the weekend xx

Girl Crush






Jennifer Aniston has looked so pretty in her tour promoting Marley and Me. It's nice to see her in something else than black and with a smile on her face. I really like the blue maxi dress and the accessories!

Style Icon Part Two

I don't really need to introduce the second style icon, Audrey Hepburn. Her style was classic and chic, but it still (fifty years later) it looks young and fresh!







But what I didn't know is that she is half Dutch and half English. The exams and few big projects are finished so this weekend I can finally relax, do some laundry, watch movies (I think its time to watch Breakfast at Tiffany's again) and pack my bags for Monday's flight to Madrid! xx

My Style Icons, Part One

Chloë Sevigny is one of the celebs whose style I regularly follow. She has perfectly cool and chic style; classic and simple but mixed with some indie rock feeling, bold colours and slight nerdyness.







Stay tuned for part two! I'm in the middle of exam week right now, so can't say when the next style icon is presented, but as soon as possible. Have a good week everyone! xx

Sverige / Sweden






Ebba von Sydow is an editor-in-chief of the webedition of Swedish woman's magazine Veckorevyn. She is considered as a style icon in Sweden and clothes and other stuff she mentiones in her popular blog, are usually sold out within hours. She wears a lot of clothes from Swedish designers, such as Acne, Whyred and Filippa K, and loves knits, layering and little jackets (like me!)

I think her style is nothing too kooky but very Scandinavian and cute!

Suvi Koponen - A New Top Model

Suvi Koponen is a newcomer to the small crowd of top models, but she has already gained popularity in the fashion industry and among designers.

Suvi Koponen was born in Finland and currently lives in New York. She started her career by winning a Finnish model competition Mallikoulu (Model School, similar to America's Next Top Model) in 2005. The same year she debuted on the runway for Neil Barrett in New York.

Since then her popularity has grown rapidly. She has walked down the runways of big names in fashion: Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, Calvin Klein, Luis Vuitton, Prada, Missoni, Dolge & Gabbana, Vera Wang, Marc Jacobs and Karl Lagerfeld, only to name a few.

In addition to the runways she has appeared in editorials for W, Harper's Bazaar and Italian, British, French and American Vogues. She has starred in Mulberry, Blumarine, Balenciaga ads and (most lately) was the face of Calvin Klein Collection fall 2008 campaign, photographed by Fabien Baron.

In a release to WWD Francisco Costa explained his choice to use Suvi:

“The clothes are categorized by sharp, angular lines with a real emphasis at the waist, torso and legs. We thought that Suvi was the perfect choice to bring that to life in this very graphic campaign. She’s so current and versatile in her look and expression. She really exudes a certain strength that echoes the overall look of the season.”

Suvi is only in the start of her modelling career. I hope a lot of success for her in the future!
