Light of Day




This dress hasn't seen the light of day in awhile. It's a bit difficult to style because it's really more of a tunic length, so usually when I wear it I layer a skirt underneath. These ponte knit pants are a great alternative, not to mention they're superbly comfy. I'm getting a lot of use out of them lately because they're as easy to style as jeans but have a somewhat dressier look. This was a great day-to-evening outfit; for evening I simply swapped out the denim jacket for my cropped black leather one.

Okey, jeg sidder i Unga Bunga studiet og nyder en helvedes masse dejligt musik. Jeg t�nker .. kunne fredag aftens tidlige timer bruges bedre? I think not. Jeg ved ikke hvad det er, men jeg f�ler mig sindssygt inspireret for tiden. Har en smule lyst til at .. I don't know, male p� min v�g, f� en ny tatovering eller m�ske bare reformere verden. En s�d fotograf var tidligere forbi for at tage lidt billeder til en artikel jeg deltager i .. mener den bliver bragt i Jyllandsposten p� s�ndag, og det blev vildt. H�ber virkelig at jeg vil ligne den prostituerede hipster jeg nu engang er. N�, jeg vil byde Le op til dans.

Bumble Bee



Just look at that sweet little puppy face, will you? Spencer decided to give me a good pose this time. He's doing really well; he's starting to settle into the household and learn the daily routine. He's still a handful when he gets in his rowdy moods, running all over the place and randomly grabbing all sorts of stuff he's not supposed to have, but once he settles down he sure is sweet and snuggly. Once his injured leg is healed up and we no longer have to carry him up and down 2 flights of stairs every time we need to take him out, he'll be a lot less work. In the meantime I'm seeing a noticeable improvement in muscle tone in my legs, so I guess it's not all bad. Carrying 40 pounds of puppy up and down stairs is a great workout.

I've decided that I love black and yellow together, even though it's sort of a taboo combination due to the association with bumble bees. But it occurred to me awhile back that there really isn't anything wrong with looking like a bee; in fact, bumble bees are pretty darned cute. As Katie pointed out, most bees aren't even yellow anyway. Nevertheless, the easiest way to avoid bee comparisons, should you wish to do so, is to add an intervening color to break up the black and yellow. Here, I've added the long white tunic to separate the yellow cardigan and black pants, and then splashed in a little purple and green with the scarf. Brown can also make a great intervening color, as the cords did in this outfit.

Note that in this outfit, where I have large solid expanses of black and yellow, I separated the two main pieces with the intervening color (though I threw the black belt in to integrate the two halves of the outfit). In general the larger the blocks of color, the more you'll want to separate them if you're working with a difficult combo. Unless, of course, you think it's perfectly fine to look like a bee.

Burgundy and Blue



Burgundy and blue has become one of my favorite color combos this year; for other ways I've combined these shades, check out this post, and this one.

In other news, Spencer is quickly picking up habits from his big sister Georgie. This is his first foray into posing for pictures with me. Here you can see that he started out sitting like a little gentleman...


...before he quickly got bored and started being a goofball.


I love how it looks like he's making a gagging face. Clearly the dog has no appreciation for a good pair of shoes.

Black and Brown



Wow, a few days slipped by since my last post and I hardly noticed. My life is a whirlwind of activity right now, let me tell you. But I've got some exciting things cooking, which hopefully I can share with you soon.

I thought this outfit was a virtual repeat of an older one, but when I looked back at the original I saw that it actually has several differences; in fact the only commonalities are the tunic and cardigan, everything else was swapped out. The overall look is still the same though, with the fitted pants and boots under the longer layers. I think this version works a bit better than the original one.

This is such an easy look to wear; the long layers provide more than enough waistband overlap so I don't end up tugging and readjusting my shirt, the boots are rugged and comfortable, and everything is stretchy and non-constrictive. The boots really bring everything together, since they have panels of both black and brown.

Jeg har ryddet op. Ved ikke .. det er s�dan noget der en sj�lden gang imellem sker n�r jeg kommer hjem med nyt, well, t�j og mangler plads. T�nk, jeg har dags dato form�et at smide 29 par sko til Afrika og jeg mangler stadig plads. Fuuuuuuuuuuuck. I'm a skank, I know. M� hellere drukne mine sorger i vin ..

Der er for vildt i K�ge. At lede efter locations med fantastiske Nadia og Rasmus p� en helt almindelig v�d tirsdag i K�ge er det mest inspirerende jeg l�nge har lavet! Rund sv�mmep�l. Glimmerhatte. Porno p� rulle. Klassisk musik. Hvidt sommerhus. Markk�rsel. Miniby. Pizza i bil. Jeg elsker Wanted Life! <3

Har haft den bedste dag l�nge, men f�r det v�lter op med billedeskapader og gode ord har jeg vist lige en lille konkurrence der skal afsluttes. Nu er det nu!


Med papir, saks og et fint kamera har Rasmus og jeg fundet to vindere af den fantastiske Sound Of Copenhagen volume 7: Anja S�nderby og Simone Neumeyer. Tusind gange tillykke til Jer begge! Jeg vil hurtigst muligt f� kastet den afsted med brevdue s� �rene kan blive fyldt med k�benhavnske l�kkerier - h�ber I vil f� lige s� meget ud af den som jeg har f�et af min!

Reworked


As I mentioned in my last outfit post, boots are in heavier rotation this summer than normal. This pair in particular has been hauled out quite a bit, mainly because they're mid-calf height and therefore don't have quite as wintry a look as some of my taller pairs. Because of the hardware, they also add quite a bit of visual interest to an outfit without too much effort on my part, a quality I'm especially appreciative of at the moment.

This outfit was reworked from an older one. I really liked the military jacket with the teal skirt, but in looking back at the original outfit I thought the addition of the gray skirt underneath was unnecessary. I therefore decided to try a simpler version, eliminating both the layered skirt and the hardware-heavy belt.

This gorgeous necklace by Wendy Brandes is also getting a ton of use lately. On the days when I'm feeling less creative, I can throw on some jeans, flats and a t-shirt and tell myself that I'm simply letting the necklace be the star of the outfit. I always feel put together when I have it on.

Do you have any special items in your wardrobe that you deploy when you don't have the energy to build an entire outfit creatively?
