Winter for Summer

I know its summer and I'm being a bit up and down-one day it's bikinis, the next it's wooly beanies-but I do always love a good jumper.  Especially with a good hat.

Those PJs/leggings are magic.

I am a bikini magpie, and as soon as there's a holiday in sight it's almost like my go-to to get me in the mood.  Even though I'm not going away till the end of July, it would have been rude not to snap up this Zimmerman bikini in the My-Wardrobe.com sale.  Personally, I think Aussie style is some of the best in the world right now, but if there's one thing they really know how to do well, it's swimwear.

I first came across this a few months ago and shot it for one of my shopping pages when I was working at a magazine. I fell in love with the loud and proud Club Tropicana print and tiny gold skulls and swallows on the end of every strand-they make a really nice tinkling sound when you move that makes me sound a bit like a a fleet of Morris Dancers.  I never thought that would be a selling point for anything, let alone swimwear, but there we go.

Apparently it's meant to 30 degrees here tomorrow but the fact it's white over with clouds outside and I'm sitting by the fire with a cup of tea (yes, in June) doesn't bode well....

Hope you're all having a fun weekend. xxx

Sidste dag med mad fra en porcel�nssk�l! Jeg drager mod Roskilde i morgen, forh�bentlig if�rt ingenting andet end et armb�nd. Det bliver s�dan en festival � la helse-theme i �r. No alcohol. Overhovedet. Jeg er stadig p� maves�rsmedicin og har derfor planer om at v�re v�ldig irriterende med alkometer og udrensende smoothies til folket. Og s� vil jeg danse en smule. Vi ses her, p� pladsen eller .. i hegnet passer ikke s� godt nu .. et andet sted! Hola bitches.

Det fam�se shoot. Det fam�se shoot for Wanted Magazine. Inden hele sygdoms-f�lgetonnen skrev jeg kort om at jeg skulle indg� i en billedserie som kan ses i n�ste udgave som udkommer 1. august 2011. Modeugenummeret om man vil. Jeg gl�der mig vanvittigt til at vise resultatet af en fantastisk vild nat med sk�nne folk i liiidt underlige omgivelser! Mens I kan se et lille sneak peak vil jeg tage hjem til Nadia for at se de f�rdige billeder. Ush.

Tell Tail

It's the accessories in this shoot that really make it for me.  The battered turquoise cuff, gold curb bracelets and, of course, the tail... (I have been known to sit and stroke mine whilst sitting on the tube on the way into work in the morning like a crazy cat lady).  I get mixed reviews when I take it out and about attached to my bag, but it's still one of my favorite finds from last year.

And ever since I saw Ashley Olsen in that red suit with a breton t-shirt underneath I've been obsessed with finding one for myself...this editorial has only fuelled the sartorial fire so I'm now on the hunt.

 Heading out of London and going home this weekend which I'm too excited for.  Will finally have some time to blog properly too and show you some of my recent purchases that have been making getting dressed in the morning that bit more fun.

New necklace from Rokit Vintage.

Det gode ved at v�re p� Herlev .. ja, I know, hospital-talk, det m� stoppe nu! Det gode var at der var evigheder til at t�mme online shops. Alts�, det er jo egentlig det eneste man kan bruge penge p� derinde, er det ikke?

Jeg opdagede flere ting undervejs; Der er for meget d�dssygt t�j. Der er for meget d�dssygt dyrt t�j. Damet�j - or dating a rich old daddy - m� v�re vejen frem. Uden tvivl, jeg er kr�sen og lidt underlig, men seri�st, der er jo s� meget gabende kedeligt herret�j. Mit skab er nu beriget med fire fantastiske damejakker, tre par dameshorts og lidt andet g�gl fra deres rodekasser. Inden det bliver alt for drag det her hopper jeg p� restaurant.

Lige ankommet til sk�rmen med fuldst�ndig overfyldt mave. Familien og jeg har fejret min fantastiske mor og hendes k�reste p� restaurant med en smule mad - kun en smule. Av av av hvor er det l�kkert at kunne proppe s� overd�dige m�ngder af virkelig l�kker mad i ganen efter en del portioner � la kattemad p� Herlev. Jeg er glad.

Relaunch: The Bitch Is Back.

Ja, jeg havde jo egentlig lovet at den lille halsbet�ndelse m�tte rende mig i r�ven, men s�dan skulle det desv�rre ikke v�re. �benbart. Jeg endte endnu engang p� Herlev Hospital med et par halvd�de lunger og det blev til 14 meget voldsomme dage og en tid med not so much liv. Jeg satser virkelig p� at kunne male bloggen fuld af farver igen, for fuck, det har jeg virkelig savnet. N�r man er ved at tage billetten bliver man lige bekr�ftet i hvor glad man er for det man har om sig. Fantastiske mennesker. Fantastiske minder, oplevelser. En blog man elsker at l�gge kr�fter i. Jeg vil hoppe p� Rasmus og slutte af med tak. I'm back for good.

Dip Dye Shorts

I love a bit of dip-dye, on my head and on my clothes, and, whilst by no means a natural 'customizer', I really want to give this a go on a pair of Levi's denim shorts.

Skull Head

How amazing are these skull necklaces on cotton threads?  They're by Tina Lilenthal who I saw exhibiting at Treasure as part of London Jewellery Week.  They're currently for sale on Browns Focus-a snip at �20!

I think the white on neon string would be amazing on tanned skin for the summer.....

Dream Jeans

I swear I will actually be dreaming about these Isabel Marant jeans tonight...

Grazia.it

Some might remember a snapshot a few weeks ago of my bed in outfit-planning chaos-the prepping for a little project I had lined up.  Well, all the prepping was because I was the super-talented Vanessa Jackman asked if she could shoot me for her Street Style Feature "Girl Next Door" for Grazia.it, the results of which are up now.

For a non-outfit post blogger, it was the first shoot of this kind I've ever done so the nerves definitely set in that morning, especially after Vanessa tole me she was using film so there's no option to look back, review and re-take-blinking was not an option!  Luckily, I was in incredibly safe hands and Vanessa put me right at ease.  After two and half nail-biting weeks with the photos getting developed, the results went live on Friday so I thought it only right I put them up for you to see.

Check out the whole post (with interview) here (it's all in Italian but should translate o.k in google translate).

Vanessa has also very sweetly done a post on the feature of her blog-tons of photos and full credit details.  Check hers out here...

Holiday in Spain

My holiday to Espagna with my good friend Georgie is 100% good to go as of today, and I couldn't be more excited for some sun.  My last trip was almost exactly a year ago, and was promptly followed a really hard-working year that has flown by so i am more than ready for some sunbathing, swimming and drinking sundowners.
