Ida Sjöstedt


Swedish designer Ida Sjöstedt makes the most amazing pieces. This dress has really been the IT dress among Scandinavian ladies the last few summers, and I totally understand why. It's like a dream. Love the long version but to be honest, the short one feels a bit more practical. Tanned legs and strappy sandals and just natural hair and make up to match. On the  Swedish blogger Chloe Schuterman here

Agent Provocateur Mazzy Bikini

It is suppose to be 20 degrees in London tomorrow. Summer is coming. I love this bikini from Agent Provocateur, you can buy it here (sold out in my size of course but will look in ALL the London shops this weekend)

London Marathon


Not very fashion related...but as I have mentioned my training for London Marathon before I thought I have to follow up with the result. I finished in the race on Sunday in 3hrs 43min and 22 seconds. These pictures are not the most flattering but how I looked like after running for 3hrs plus. The vest I am wearing if the club vest of my running club Mornington Chasers.

Cartier Love Bracelet

There are a few things you just can not buy for yourself, doesn't matter how much you want it! One thing is of course engagement ring/ wedding band etc. I absolutely love the Cartier Love Bracelet but it has to be given to you from someone special and you can NOT ask for it.

The bracelet is that designed to be opened only using a special screwdriver that is supplied with every bracelet. I am not sure how much they are, but as anything Cartier, not cheap! They also come in diamond versions, platinum etc so those are defiantly more expensive. I am following this girl on instagram and she has the biggest collection of them I have ever seen. Her hand below.

Hello friends, I am sure we will have lots of fun together

Louboutin pigalle spikes 120mm! Have to admit, not the most comfortable shoes I have owned but one of those iconic CL styles that I just couldn't resist. They make styling the rest of your outfit so much easier (jeans or leather trousers, simple tee and these shoes and you are good to go) I will need to take them to my shoe place to have the rubber sole put on, it protects the delicate red paint from coming off but also makes them a bit easier to walk in and not as slippery as they are right now. Best spend £20 maintenance ever.
 
Wishing you all a happy weekend, I am running the London marathon on Sunday so fingers crossed. In Nikes though and not Louboutins:)

Scaninavian inspiration at Boxpark - shoreditch London

When browsing around Shoreditch Boxpark yesterday (a big complex of pop up shops located in east London) I was surprise to see both Swedish Hasbeens and the iconic Kånken back packs from Fjällräven . I remember these back packs from growing up and they have just been around forever. Will be interesting to see how they are welcomed in the UK. Fjällräven also make great clothing for hiking, skiing and Nordic climate. Didn't see any of that in this pop up though!

The Boxpark in Shoreditch is located 2-4 Bethnal Green Rd London, E1 6GY, UK
