shopping - couldn't resist any longer

I just couldn't resist this wonderful Balenciaga-esque floral top from H&M any longer. I had already decided not but buy it when I saw it in the store for the first time and instead bought a very cool retro bathingsuit with the same print. But it's been haunting me ever since...showing up on many great fashion blogs and it always looked so damn good on everone. At frist that was even more so a reason not to get it but when I saw it again today I just got it. Hah.

Well it's not like anyone else here is likely to buy it as people in this city are far from fashion forward and pieces like this often end up on sale (which is even better for me).




G'night XOXO

Shopping in London

Shopping in London was great, I just love to shop there! It's quite expensive but I still got myself a couple of things. First of all these wonderful gladiators which I bought at Topshop:

I also got myself a lovely tiered floral skirt at Topshop. Apart from that I bought very cute PJ's at The Gap. And what I'm most happy about is a Burberry-esque belt from Zara which I've been looking for ever since I saw it online on Runway Today's blog.

I also got a few nice clothes to wear to the office at Uniqlo. I loved this Store when I discovered it in Japan last summer and was really happy to be able to shop there again. They had quite a few items on sale so I got 3 knit sweaters/cardigans, a jacket and a shirt for a bit over £50!

I hadn't had time to really experiment with my new clothes yet but I will do so this weekend and will definitely post some pics of me wearing the things =)

shopping: the denim jacket

My best friend Nicky recently discovered her mom's old jeans jacket and I loved it so much on Nicky that I couldn't pass on this slightly darker denim version I found at H&M's Kids Dept. I think it's a great alternative to the presently totally overexposed leather jacket. It works great to spice up girly outfits or the add that rock 'n roll touch.

I also got this navy striped shirt at Zara and a nice hat (I loove hats although I don't own many and rarely ever wear them >.<)

I paired it all with black pants and patent red ankle boots.

it's a man's world...

Both from Topshop

dancing in the moonlight

I got this gorgeous bathing suit from H&M last week:


I love the retro pin-up style. I dunno yet if I'm going to wear it to go swimming as I prefer bikinis for that but I think it makes a really nice top.

Shopping: florals

As I mentioned in a previous post I did some shopping last weekend, or was it two weeks ago? Anyway I finally found the perfect floral printed dress and a nice silk top with a floral print at Zara. I think this should satisfy my craving for floral prints for now. I also picked up two jeans shorts for summer and a fringed black clutch at H&M.
