STAPLES AND STRIPES


FINDERS KEEPERS TOP / VINTAGE PANTS / HUNTER BAG / CARAVELLE WATCH / GAS BIJOUX BRACELET

A quick little post from the home-office in London, who opted for a rainy look today, looking back at sunny days at the Copenhagen Fashion Week last week. I attended representing the Olympus PEN Generation, and although only being in the city for about 5 minutes (3 days), it was wonderful to be back to quickly meet with friends and pick up my ceremonial Danish frappé at Baresso (Denmark's answer to Starbucks) - I honestly don't know how these guys do it, and that comes from someone who used to work there at 15! Whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles? I'm going to pretend that was a rhetorical question. Until next time my homemade English iced lattes make up for it and help me get the work done, which is all I need for now.


HOPE EVERYONE'S GETTING READY FOR THE WEEKEND

ETHERIC ENERGY




SAKSPOTTS SHEARLING COAT / LEVIS JEANS / REISS BAG / NIKE SNEAKERS

Busy, busy bee. Don't you just know it, when you feel you're so busy running from place to place, that you might as well skip the trouble with your hair-routine and just fix it vertically with hair gel? This look has not yet been sported on the runway, to my knowledge, but with the current pace of 2015 and the wind coming from west, I'm sure Karl or Marc will see the demand of the trend.

In these times, with fashion weeks being on their high, my level of excitement equivals to being under the influence of a 5-cups-of-coffee-in-a-row-kick and as you can imagine from that, I love it but it doesn't relax me. If you have been following me on Instagram, you might have noticed, that I have a very soft spot for plants. Whenever I feel my mind is clotted, I always take time out of my schedule, however many fires are burning in my inbox, social media, to-do's etc. to take care of my plants (my 20m2 bedroom inhabits 16 alone). It sounds silly, but it completely calms me down to do this, and with my love for anything green and organic, you can imagine how much I love The Botanical Gardens. I had pinned down the Copenhagen Gardens in my recent Tour de Scandinavia for the fashion weeks, and it was a lovely calm moment out of my day.

I HOPE YOU HAVE ALL HAD A GREAT WEEKEND

BLAST FROM THE PAST



VINTAGE DRESS / TOPSHOP KNEE LENGTH BOOTS / PRADA SUNNIES / CARAVELLE WATCH / NORDENSTAM RINGS

It is always so good to be back in Copenhagen. And whilst fashion weeks all over have been shouting the sartorial message of the 70s, someone arrived in her one decade off vintage dress. Well knowing of this, as I stood in an East End vintage shop in London last week, my heart couldn't help but go soft for this Mary Quant-esque dress. I love how vintage allows us to enter a different age, as well as contemporary fashion keeping on referencing back to well-known, classical staple pieces. And although it is probably a rather good thing, that the mini has become slightly less mini, there still is nothing like the real thing.
∴
I went to an amazing roundtable talk called the Fireside Chat during the Fashion Week in Stockholm, discussing the future of fashion and the garments we wear, with a reference to some of the worldly challenges we are faced with as a global community. And although we might be waiting for more political governing forces to act upon this, it's undeniable that we as users and consumers are the drops that make out the ocean. This might seem a bit uneasy to relate to at first, but I am so eager to share more of what I learnt at this amazingly inspiring talk with you. You guessed it; vintage, and passing on unloved garments is one of the things we can do to affect the cycle, and contemporary fashion keeps reminding us, that to be on the notes, it doesn't always matter whether your dress is from today or 40 years ago. Now that's pretty cool, hey?

HAVE A GREAT FRIDAY
