OOTD - Blazer and Accessories!!

Hello there! Today I'm doing something different and something that it completely out of my comfort zone. I am joining the creative closet linkup with an outfit post! I have been following these linkups from the moment they started, and I always thought it was such a clever idea! I am also one of those people who has a closet full of stuff and never anything to wear. So picking a theme and going inside my own wardrobe to style an outfit around it would make a good exercise for me.

 I always told myself I would join one of these linkups one day. And than I saw this prompt pop up. I am completely blazer obsessed, so I knew it was now or never. If I didn't have the guts to join this one, I knew I would chicken out forever. So here I am, with a picture I took myself before going out for a lunch date and with a tantrum throwing toddler infront of me on the floor. My life is so glamorous, Haha! But let's get back on track here. I went for the most basic outfit ever (jeans, a white tank top and heels) and dressed it up with a blazer and a few of my favorite acccesories. So let's have a look! 

The blazer is the Only Sanne Blazer in the color Dusty Pink I believe. I got it 3 years ago when I was pregnant with Charlotte. I love the color, but the material is really thick and stiff, so that it's not always the most comfortable piece to wear. For work it's absolutely fine, but for crawling over the floor with a toddler there are definitely other pieces I prefer!

Can we just acknowledge the fact that this picture looks complely blog worthy? Yes? Good! :) These these are definitely my favorite accessories to date! The watch is the Guess Mini Phantom in silver/rosé and the bracelet is the Mulberry Bow bracelet in pink. I wear these two items every single day. The bag is my favorite bag for the summer and when I'm not out with my daughter (so that pretty much means I take it with me to work during the summer months). During the winter I prefer a bag that stands rain and snow a little bit more than this one. The leather stains pretty easily. My daughter drooled on it in the first week I got it, and the stain is still visible. But that just brings character to the bag right? :) It's the Louis Vuitton Speedy 30 in Damier Azur by the way.

The scarf is the Mulberry Tamara scarf in the color oak. I purchased it last december and it's my absolute favorite scarf at the moment. It just instantly upgrades any look. Everything just looks a little more fancy when you pair it with a Mulberry scarf.  It does crinkle up a bit though, so I 'm still figuring out what to do with that. I am not supposed to iron it, but if the crinkles keep bothering it, I might just give the good 'ol iron a try anyway. 

And than the rest of the outfit. The jeans are the Esprit EDC Slim Low Rise Jeans in the color cinder blue. I really love these jeans, I actually own them in a couple of different colors. They just fit my body type really well and they feel very comfortable on. The shoes I got on sale about two years ago. They were ridiculously cheap for good quality all leather shoes. I think they were the last pair and I ended up paying 20 bucks for them. They are by the brand Linea Zeta and they are very comfortable. I could walk for miles in these. And the last item (not shown in picture) is a plain white tanktop by H&M.

So, are you just as blazer obsessed as I am?

What we're wearing this Christmas!

Yes, I know! I might be going a little bit Christmas crazy here. But I just can't help myself. I love Christmas! We decorated the Christmas tree, we planned our Christmas menu, so now it was time to pick out our Christmas outfits! I love them, but unfortunately we won't be color-coordinated this Christmas. I was so focused on Charlotte's outfit, that I paid no attention at all to the fact that I can´t wear red! It makes me look like something that crawled out of a vampire movie. But anyways, this is what we're wearing this Christmas!

Charlotte's outfit

Charlotte's is wearing a checked dress by Burberry, a red cardigan by H&M, a red headband by Claire's and red tights that I got from some local store. I bought all these items separately, but luckily it´s all practically the same shade of red. Phew!!

The red cardigan has a cute ruffle detail and has one big sparkly button. It does run a bit big though. I got Charlotte a size 6 to 9 months and it fits like a glove!

The headband isn't new. I bought this at Claire's a couple of months ago and I figured it would come in handy for Christmas, eventhough I had no idea what her Christmas outfit would look like. 


My outfit

My entire outfit is by Vila, as usual! It's a Danish brand I believe, so you can't get it everywhere. But for who's interested, you can purchase their clothing online at http://www.asos.com. My outfit consists of a simple pair of black pants, a black and white top and a flowy gray cardigan. The shoes, handbag and earrings I already owned. The black leather high-heeled booties are by a brand called Zign, the black and brown handbag is by Calvin Klein and I don't remember where the earrings are from. Sorry! It's quite casual for the holidays, but with a little baby running around putting on something fancy is really the last thing on my mind!

The top has a black and white baroque print. I thought that would be very suitable for the holidays for some reason. It's a very soft sheer fabric. Very comfortable! The gray cardigan has glittery thread at the ends which makes it a bit more festive. 

My charcoal earrings. They are definitely one of my favorites! They are a bit ruffed up because I have been wearing them for years, but I still love them. I probably should start looking for a pair of earrings to replace them with. Well, that's what we are wearing this Christmas. Do you have your Christmas outfit picked out yet?

Kisses!

OOTD - Mommy and Baby!


If you are anything like me, you like things to match a little. And eventhough I love to match outfits, I really can't stand those overdone mommy and baby outfits. I like things to be subtle. So that often leads to slightly color-coordinated outfits for me and Charlotte. I think It's cute and it just looks better in photographs. So this is what we're wearing today!

My Outfit
I'm wearing my favorite denim chino's by Esprit. I actually ended up buying a second pair since I love it so much. I can now literally wear it every single day! But I won't... I don't want people to think I'm wearing the same pair of pants all the time and start question my personal hygiene. Definitely don't want that! So I make sure i throw in a different style of pants every once in a while!

 The vest is by Vila and I think it's absolutely gorgeous! It has rhinestones on the shoulders and a sheer backpanel. Underneath that I'm wearing a simple plain brown cami by H&M.

The charm bracelet is by Pandora. I love this bracelet because all the charms on it represent a certain special event in my life. You can see the babystoller, which obviously stands for having my little girl. There are also charms on it for buying my house, graduating, my new job and so on!

The ankle boots are by an Italian brand called Cellini and they are brown with subtle gold sparks on it. It has leafs on the sides which I absolutely love for fall. It looks so seasonal! 

The bag is my Burberry drawstring Bromley bag which I've had forever. The quality is so amazing that it still looks brand new eventhough I've been using it for years! I'm not a big spender, but investing in an item like this is just so worth it.


Charlotte's outfit
Charlotte's outfit is almost completely from H&M, except for the pacifier and the bow. The pink pacifier is by a swedisch brand called Bibi and they really have the best quality pacifiers. They come in all these cute colors and patterns as well! The tights and shoes are in stores right now. The vest and shorts are from last year, but they still carry simulair styles. I saw these shorts in blue just a few days ago. When I found out I was having a girl, I might have gone a bit overboard with the whole shopping thing. I bought alot of sizes in advance!

The vest has cute floral elbow patches and the little bottons are shaped as flowers. So cute! And I love the colors!

And her bow...I really love bows! I got this one at a webshop. I can't remember which one, but there are alot of shops that sell this particular bow. It has a big pink flower with a white band.

Shoes! I love stocking up on little shoes for Charlotte. I don't think It will be much longer before she'll take her first real steps. She's already gliding along the coffee table like a little pro! 

So there you have it, our outfits of the day! I I'll try to do the next one with us actually in them!

Kisses!
