Celine Ponyhair Espadrilles




I have been so broke the last couple of months that I can actually say that the last proper shopping I did was in January. That is such an awkward sentence for me. Like it actually doesn't make sense in my head, even though it's true.

Anyway, when I did my January shopping I came home with a few things, and these beauties were in one of the Harvey Nichols bags (tends to be Harvey Nichs I shop at since I know it in and out and I like the intimate, less chaotic shopping experience that they offer)...

I don't know whether I should be ashamed to admit that I already have two pairs of Celine ponyhair loafers and one pair of Chanel espadrilles in my shoe collection so honestly these may not be the most original addition to my accessories department but they just demanded I buy them so what was I supposed to do? The colour is certainly unique and I actually didn't have any ponyhair espadrilles so I suppose they serve a new purpose. I'm planning to wear them to all my awesome summer dresses I will be purchasing this spring, YAY!

What else did I buy? Well, another pair of shoes.... They are TRULY AMAZING and I can't wait to share them with you guys. I bought some Stella McCartney lingerie, the Clara collection, my absolute fave that seems to be making up the majority of my lingerie selection these days, and a Helmut Lang sweater. All of which hopefully in time will receive a proper introduction here. And maybe I will share my spring shopping list as well if I get a sec.

Oh, and P.S: I am aware my designer variety is becoming rather monotonous with Celine taking up most of these posts but I can't help the love I feel for Phoebe Philos brilliance.

Flashback


Thinking back to the summer and Stockholm Fashion Week. I wore my favourite, most adored, shoes one of the days. Don't actually think they have had a proper introduction here on the blog, I'll make sure to fit one in maybe tomorrow. But they don't really need an introduction, do they? They are the babe Celines from SS13 and there isn't much more to say. My most expensive shoe buy in 2013 but SO my best shoe buy as well. I LOVE. Rest of the outfit includes the Acne Copy Linen tshirt I lived in all summer and my favourite high waist shorts, several years old, from H&M. Oh and the Proenza of course.

Keeping me warm


Sweden is giving us surprisingly mild weather for January but I can't complain, because although I love the snow, the +7C degree weather allows me to wear more comfortable and, let's face it, nicer things. Still though, got to keep warm because it's not exactly LA temperatures outside. I bought these two beauties in September time, both Acne, and they are amazing. The gloves are calfskin and calf hair, if I'm not mistaken, and the scarf is lambswool. Love. 

2014


Happy new year my loves. Or happy 2014 as I like to say :-) This is a short post which will eventually be followed by a long one. I like to get my new year resolutions down on paper, or in words, but don't know if this is the best outlet for personal promises such as get a better grip over my economy (no that does not mean cutting down on shopping, but rather other unnecessary expenses) or get a more healthy morning routine (in 2013 the routine was wake up, shower, do makeup on the bus and eat breakfast on the bus if you have time, otherwise skip breakfast)....

So I will settle for one resolution up here: have a nice day. For those who know me you know it's no secret my 2013 has been an emotional roller coaster, one that I am still recovering from, so my goal for 2014 is to make it much more stable, and have much more control. And make it good. Make every day good. Have a nice day. And I hope all my readers will, in fact, have 365 nice days this year.
