Copenagen Fashion Week

Bobbi as in Bobbi Brown saved my summer - with this amazing mascara.
I'm not a girl with long dark eyelashes, but I'm a girl that needs
long dark lashes or my eyes will disappear right there in my face... I
don't wear a lot of make-up, i don't know how to apply it or how to
use a highlighter or a concealer properly, so i stick to the basics of
mascara and blush, and if we're crazy i throw on some eyeliner. So
every summer i have the choice to be eyeless or to hang around with
mascara on my cheeks because of the warm weather, but a couple of days
ago i bought this mascara and i accidentally wore it while taking a
swim in the ocean - and when i got home everything was still in the
right place and i have been wearing it ever since (2 days that is).
Lovely, so thanks Bobbi!

If i were doing the Roskilde festival thing - which I'm definitely
not - i think (from looking at all the Roskilde street style) that i
would wear this outfit. But since I'm never gonna sport this shit at
Roskilde, i might as well wear it on a regular day.
Denim shorts from Hong Kong, Monday lace body, cropped tank from Att.,
plaid shirt from DANSK, AA fanny pack and Ray Ban shades oh and of
course the good old Doc's.

But I'm not at Roskilde, I'm in my couch with my kimono and a big bowl
of strawberries with cream - my fave snack!

Saturday i just wanted to wear my ruffled green DANSK dress again,
it's really my favourite dress this summer - so dressy and easy to
wear at the same time!
I wore it with my neon orange Marni sandals and my power necklace from
Jewels CPH.

On my way to my own grill party and some tanning on the beach with my
boyfriend and our friend Simon - the other guys couldn't make it,
everyone is aparently on Roskilde Festival or working... I'm in denim
shorts, monki top, leopard bikini, Marni sandals and FON bracelet.

I really needed some comfortable clothes to run around and fix stuff
and what could be better than my ripped wrangler shorts and and AA two
toned heart top. Not much to it.

This is my shoe shelf where all my favourites shoes is lined up,
except the expensive ones - they're always sleeping in their boxes.
I change the wall now and then, so it doesn't look the same and when i
get new shoes, they have to be up there at least a week, so i can
admire them. The rest of my shoe collection is spread all over the
apartment or in boxes in my closet.

...in the water that is!
I went to my little house with a garden right by Amager strand to do
some tanning and take a swim in the ocean, first time this year! It
was so cold but really nice - and a good excuse to sport some
swimwear, and a reason to buy new!
So most of my day was spent on a blanket in the grass with chips and
magazines, that's what i call summer.

Yesterday i woke up and immediately wanted to wear something with
animal print on it. So it was this tank from GT, denim shorts from
Hong Kong, necklace from H&M and hat from Brixton - that landed on me.

I bought this sweatshirt and this tote bag in Force of Nature, and i
got the bracelet as well. The sweat is so soft and comfortable - but
it's undeniably way to warm to wear it in this raging heat! The tote
bag is perfect and replace my old FON tote bag, it's even in a thicker
canvas material and has longer straps - which i like because I'm
always biking around.
The bracelet is just so cute with the sailor look and it's not too girly for me.

I biked all the way to Nørrebro again, and had lunch with my beautiful
cousin in the sun - and guess what? i had a coke (glass bottle). Then
i swung by Force of Nature to see if they had got more of the FON YSL
tribute sweats left, and they had! So i bought one right away, along
with at tote bag (same print) and a really cute bracelet. Instead of
showing you a picture of the stuff i got i want to show you Stine and
the shop, it's decorated like a funeral store and it is so well done
with white flowers i big vases and an old mahogoni desk. They carry a
lot of really nice brands like Soulland, Permanent Vacation and they
also make a few styles themselves.

Today i was wearing WAY to much clothes - i nearly had a melt down in
Panduro Hobby - combination of heat and anger because they didn't have
any studs, i had this really great idea on how to pimp my white
t-shirts.
I was wearing plaid shirt from DANSK, Top from MONKI, skirt from AA,
necklaces from H&M, bracelet from Force Of Nature and shoes from
Vagabond.

Wednesday i biked all the way from Vesterbro across the water and over
to Islandsbrygge, Amager to visit DANSK design studio.
I wanted to look at the new SS10 collection and to hear more about a
really interesting project they are working on.
Unfortunately most of the collection was out, so we just hung out and
talked about the project called WE LOVE, which is an event starting
during Fashion Week SS10 where young up and coming photographer or
artists can get the chance to show their work - I can't wait to hear
more, i think it sound so cool!
Anyway, i really like the way they designed their studio, very simple
and with flexible worktables you can move around. Besides DANSK there
is also a graphic designer and a photographer working in the studio -
lots of nice creative brains!

I have a weakness for shoes, so i went by the best 2ndhand shoe shop
in Copenhagen (Vesterbro) that is called GENBRUG to check out their selection, and it was extravagant! They had all these pretty little shoes in every imaginable color and i found ten thousand pairs - or maybe not - that i wanted to buy,
but i think i'm OK. Shoes I have lots of....

I was feeling all frisky and summer-ish so i put on my flower dress
from DANSK and dug out my purple suede fringe sandals from China, put
on a hat and went out to have a cold Coca Cola (in a glass bottle of
course) in the sun with my friend at Enghave plads.

I have a lot of bags, small ones, big ones, useless ones and ugly ones
- but i have one favorite and it's more like af canvas shopping bag...
It's from Force Of Nature and it has this really cool print on it that
says 'I'm every woman it's all in me' like that whitney houston song,
remember?
Anyway i carry a lot of stuff around - here's what i got.
Miu Miu wallet, Marni glasses - so i can see people, Kamera bag, NYLON
Magazine - i like to have some reading stuff with me, Hand lotion,
Phone ( i have a fancier one, but i broke it...), Lip Balm from NUXE -
no bad stuff or parfume in it, Leopard hair bow - so i can dress up in
a party emergency, Tissues - i constantly have a cold, Rosebud lip
balm, Hair thing, Moleskine notebook - i have to write things down to
remember it, pencil - old school, Monki sunglasses, vintage sunglasses
- i always carry several pairs, in case i lose them and keys

When ever i get the chance, i go to Sort Kaffe og Vinyl on vesterbro,
for coffee and cinnamonrolls. It's my favorite place to sit and enjoy
coffee in the sun when the weather is good.
I went with my boyfriend, and i was wearing t-shirt dress from AA, hat
from Brixton and my favorite sneakers - my white on black suede Adidas
Gazelle. My brother gave them to me for my birthday last year and it
was the best gift ever, he bought them in San Fran - you can't even
get that color combo in Denmark.

Sunday night me and my boyfriend wen't to this new beach bar/grill
place at Amager strand, it is a really nice place where you can listen
to music and drink nice cuban cocktails in the sand. They also had
really nice food.
It's was really hot so i wore a body from GT, jeans shorts from Levi's
and a vintage sweater (for later).
On our way home we stopped by a little old school candy shop in
Frederiksberg and got a candy wrist watch!

I met up with my very good friend Benji for ice cream and coffee, and
thought he looked very nice in jeans and DIY cut out tee. And the best
thing: he wears a helmet when he bikes, which i think is a very cool -
and responsible thing to do, even though you might be afraid to look
stupid.

Monday night i had dinner at a Korean restaurant i KBH K with my
boyfriend and his family, i love food and i love going out for dinner!
It's relaxing and there is NO dishes to wash afterwards!
My outfit was a silk dress from china, cut off nylons, denim jacket
and Vagabond platform shoes.

Monday, I spend my afternoon checking out the stores at nørrebro, I
don't usually spend a lot of time there so it was nice to explore new
territory.
I found some great 2ndhand shops at Skt. Hans gade and I fell in love
with this quilted short jacket with huge puffy shoulders in a very
colorful flower print - hmm the description doesn't do it justice so
take a look at the picture. I didn't buy it, since I'm broke, but
maybe I have to go back tomorrow...

Oh and i just saw this really cool Michael Jackson grafitti on Sdr. boulevard //Vesterbro, Copenhagen - RIP MJ

Sunday i was a bit hung over, so me and my boyfriend spend a couple of
hours sleeping and reading in the sun at Enghave parken with chips and
Coca Cola (my latest obsession, it's indescribably cool to drink out of the old glass bottles). I reread one of my favorite books 'Chloe does Yale' by Natalie Krinsky.
Later i met up with my sister who just got back from 3 weeks in Asia -
it's good to have her back home!

I spend saturday afternoon browsing around the city. It's the end of
the month and i don't have a lot of money left so i decided to hit
Gina Tricot and check out their sale.
I found a pink and white striped body and a really pretty/ugly dress (see pic) that reminded me a little bit of Madonna or maybe just the hookers in
my neighborhood? Anyway, it's white with black lace detailing and i
think that it could be a nice DIY projekt... i'm thinking about dying
it black or grey - then it might lose the hooker feel?!

This saturday the Klashy family hosted a BBQ outside KB18 in the
meatpascking district.
There was a big grill you could use and my friend Frederik Kragh was
playing nice and relaxing music with a twist.
Later the party moved inside KB18 and the raver helmets came on (see picture).

Dress from DANSK, sandals from H&M, Denim jacket and fannypack from AA.
