I got a new camera, wich means I am yet again blogger ready, and new hair. My hair is now saluting both the silent screen godesses of the thirties and the smoky sirens of the fifties. Thanks to Peter at Toni and Guy in Oslo I got the hair I wanted.
And in preparation for the upcoming season. Let there be noted that few have ever been more stylish than N sync in the midnineties.
For fall 07 Prada wants us to play with fabrics and textures. I am in love with the ugliness of it, my intuitive gut feeling to choose something else, but the same feeling makes me look twice. No rock chic bohemian in sight, and I am delighted. The shape is fresh and the beltet waists is nowhere to be seen. I love both the eyeliner and the belt in the hair, the shape of the silhouette, the fabrics that reminds me of my late grandmother, but my favourite by far is the stockings/leggings with the open toe shoes. I love Prada and due to the cold norwegian fall, I will start wearing stockings/leggings like these immediately. The accsessoire intended for fall makes us scandinavians look great even this early summer, by giving us exellent reason for keeping warm on these early and quite chilly summer nights.
Obviously when I work out, my shoes glow in the dark. The fannypack is by Vivienne Westwood, the tights from Indiska, the shiny hood from HM, the hair is big and the fluorescent shoes are my favourite Nike Air Max.
Remember that dry cotton knitted sweaters you had when you were younger? The ones with yarn that separate into small threads if you tuck it or look at it too closely? The sweaters with cotton that feels dry on your fingertips when you pull it over your head in the morning and makes them even dryer when you frequently touch it during the day? Put them back on. They rule.
All of this weekends stylishness was well documented on a camera without the memory card in it. Being that my display is ruined as well, I wasn't able to see it before I sat down yesterday to transfer the pictures and then realised that the card was not there. Good thing my lovely Nike Air Max bounced me well of to work this morning. The rain was pouring but I hardly noticed.
As for the launch of both Lily Allen and Kate Moss celebrity lines, Moss for Top Shop and Allen for new look, the competition is by far won in the favour of miss Allen. The dresses are funky yet girlish, inspired by her own dresscollection wich consists of over 300 dresses. Give me the keys to her closet and check out her great collection at www.newlook.co.uk.
I tucked my blouse in and look kind of square, still love both the blouse and the shorts.
As for the other accessories, add a leather jacket with semi puffy sleeves, a big scarf, one large adidas backpack and a shopping net with polkadots.
I somtimes look stylish when I sleep. The nightgown is second hand and my lips were painted a bright fuschia.
Dress from Buenos Aires and a patent leather clutch bought at Tonica set the tone for the evening. The red rubber band I at one point kept my bangs from my face with is an old one, and kept coming on and of throughout the night. Bangs or no bangs seemed to be my personal hairdilemma through out the party. As I soon realised there is no dancing like dancing in a dress with latin origin, so arriving at the club I quickly forgot about the bangs and danced the night away.
When the weather is hot, wear aquatic colours. Blue jeans, buttoned purple singlet, blue cardigan and large purple sequin earrings. Cooling of simply by the colour of my clothes. Love the sunglasses from HM.
Fendi did these shoulders, and I am amused. I like them, and would surely like the dress as well. Word on the street is that both Prada and Fendi are looking for a place to open up in Oslo, and apparently they are just now fighting over the same location. I put my money on Prada, which I would prefer over Fendi any day. Even though the shoulders are sweet and the dress funky. Pass me the satin turban.
I look boring. Everyone else look boring. I'm tired of the streets and how Oslo dresses.Take a look at facehunter.blogspot.com instead, his recent posts from London makes me wanna jump a plane immediatly.
When really hung over you wear oversized blouses in bright clear colours and light fabrics, preferably one inherited from one of your friends grandmother. Let your hair rund wild and free, read: large, so that the most of your tired face is cleverly hidden through the strategy of distraction. Look at the hair. Not the face.
When bussing about you wear comfortable clothes. The sweater is from a flea market, the jeans are from Levis, the purse used to belong to Andrea Zuckermann and the scarf is for protection, quite consistant of keeping the germs out of my fresh throat.
Also bought a funky yet corporate blouse today. Good with heels in a buisness meeting, good with my freshly cut Acne jeans, which now work as shorts, in the park on a hot sunny day.
Being that my hair has regained it's health I felt that it was in itself by far my best accessoire of the day. Still recovering from my week with the flu I threw on a scarf to protect my sore throat as I went out to greet the sun.
The dress I chose to wear with both my hair and my scarf protecting my throat from yet another flu, is recently bought at a store called Vila. I like the simplicity yet femininity of the cut, the clear colour, and the details around all the edges that gives it a thirties kind of feel.
I am madly in love with my purse though. It's corny and quite Andrea Zuckermann (from Beverly Hills 90210) and gives just the right 90's kitch feeling I was looking for. Found it at a flea market last weekend.
This is one of the freshest looks I have seen in a while. This picture makes me wanna go dance.

I believe that owls will become a huge trend, owls are wise and funky looking. Not to mention one of the least portraied animals. In fashion that is. I want one hanging around my neck.

Anchors are cool, every year, every summer. And it feels good to combine silver and gold when wearing a top who keeps your boobs nicely placed in their very own boob bags, I can see a trend coming.
It's near summer and shorts is a must, trendy or not. When the heat kicks in and you want to keep cool and fresh, a pair of shorts can save the day and it's an easy way to look efortlessly cool. Pair them up with a pair of old school gymshoes. This season HM has the best collection of shoes, selling them in several colours for only 98,- nok. The best pick is a brown shorts wich will tone down this seasons neon but most of all look good with a dark blue top. Remember to pull the shorts up to accentuate your waist.
Looking through some old photos of my mom I noticed the hairstyle she had when she was expecting me. The hair was loose and big on the top, collected in a fairly loose hairknot with a thin rubber band and with heavy bangs. It's a kind of messy, fluffed up version of the traditional old teacher and librerian look. I am now wearing my hair similar to my mom, even though I'm not pregnant or expecting anything but a joyous weekend at fleamarkets in the sun with my new shorts.
