Fitted


Source: Stockholm Streetstyle

I love the way this guy looks and it would be nice to see more guys dressed like this. He makes it look so easy, but what I think really does it, is the perfectly fitted pants and shirt. And I know that espadrilles are in this summer and I know that many people aren't so much a fan of them but the sailor striped espadriles that this guy is wearing are just right! Together with the bag, they add a nice pop of blue to the neutral tones of his outfit.

Baby Asparagus & Bacon Rolls

I made these the other afternoon, it was kind of a late lunch before dinner snack! And since these are really easy to make, I've written up a quick recipe to share. It's only a guideline though and all measurements are approximately what I used but you can vary them depending on taste. (I don't usually follow a recipe when I cook, I tend to make it up as I go!).

Bassike S/S 2011-12


Just a handful of images from the Bassike S/S 2011-2012 lookbook. This collection is so clean, minimal and wearable. I particularly like the long lines, the stripes and the muted earthy colour tones. And love the photo amongst the cactuses!

Bright Red, Camel

I really like this colour combination and even though I know it's already been around for awhile, I think the neutral camel colour will always be in. It's one those timeless classics that you can wear anytime of year and with a splash of bright red, it's perfect for spring/summer!

YSL Parisienne

"The essence of a woman who is incredibly free - she is not from Paris, but Paris adopts her. She knows how to love, how to live. Parisienne is the fragrance of ultra-feminity and sensuality, built with notes of blackberry, damask rose, and sandalwood. The grand floral with a woody structure is luminous even in its mystery"

I'm loving my new YSL Parisienne fragrance - it's sweet, fruity, rosey, refreshing and smells delicious! I used to have the YSL Paris and it was one of my favourites, haven't worn a lot of perfume lately but I think that will change very soon!
