Hi guys, as I mentioned back in December, I have decided to do change my Weekly Favourites to a monthly feature in stead. It is rather time consuming going through many webshops each week so I have narrowed it down to the shops I visited the most in the first place and then just once a month. 

This will hopefully also give room for more diverse posts in stead of just these favourites of mine.

Anyways, it seems as if I really have become a French chic kinda girl because labels like Miu Miu, Vionnet and Lanvin just echoes my name all over every time. Add a little Scandinavian Edge and it is my dream wardrobe.

I am quite infatuated with the embroidered book clutches by Olympia Le Tan and the one with Shakespeare's collected works is a bibliophile's idea of fashion heaven! Unfortunately, the Shakespeare one is already sold-out but there are several cute and awesome ones like Lolita, To Kill a Mockingbird, and Dangerous Liasons. 

This past weekend, we had snow for the first time this winter but oh, how I long for spring and bold colours.. I may actually buy that Acne skirt just because of the beautiful colour. Also, I would like classic items in more unusual colours so this would be ideal.

And for kicks, the Stine Goya & Sophie Bille Brahe gold Horse ring and the Miu Miu cherry sandals. So cute...

Well, that's all from me now - back to homework (classes start tomorrow!) and see you soon.

Images that sort of sum up how I spend my last amount freedom before classes start next Wednesday...

Inspired by Mint Blue

Browsing throught the vast endlessness of Pinterest, I discovered this outfit and completely fell in love with the fresh and crisp feel it envoked in me. Today has just been a dull, grey, and eventless day so I will just share some of the images that also reached my eye after being hit with a dash of mint. Enjoy...

Flickr Crush: Caitlin Chmaj

I really like these diary entries by Catlin Chmaj on flickr. So little and so much at the same time.

Heartbreaks and strict romanticism.

The same goes for her art.

 I just wish she had more stuff on there because I really love the feel of her work.

Perfume Style

I just discovered these photos on a Danish fashion website, and it got me thinking of how one would interpret perfumes. Do they represent a specific woman or is it possible to dress accordingly?

Do you agree with these interpretations or are they a miss?

{Soothing Rain}

I am just sitting and listening to the rain falling on my windows. A soothing sound and the rythm calms me.

All that misses is a nice cup of tea, heavy on the cream and sugar. Just because it is a Wednesday in January.

I am also looking forward to the start of season two of Downton Abbey on Sunday. Even though, I know that one of the characters die, and I will once again be flooded with tears (it was my favourite!), I will still watch it. Rumour has it that there's a third season in the making - hurray!

Actually, I want to read but not anything for exams. Pleasure reading. However, I fear that then I will never be done with the stuff for the exams and there's just a fortnight until due date for my paper. I have to suck it up until then. At least I am to read David Copperfield and Great Expectations for next semester. Knowing this helps to overcome the exam melancholia.

Are you reading anything good?

{Welcome 2012}

Hi guys.. I hope you have enjoyed your Champagne and the beautiful music from the Philharmonics's New Year Concert in Vienna.

I am lying on the couch, feet up, with hot cocoa and leftover snacks watching skijump from somewhere in Germany (I know how to say it but not how to spell it!)

Hope you have all your fingers intact!
