BOHEMIAN SUMMER FINDS!

Bohemian summer: Chelsea Flower silk-georgette blouse (via The Outnet), Mango Paisley jumpsuit, crochet waistcoat, tie dye bikini top and coral bikini.
Some lovely finds while browsing the net: Mango currently sells some real boho stunners. All began with the black and white Paisley pattern jumpsuit. It really looks perfect! Love the short sleeves. I think it could be so nice to layer it with the brick red silk blouse I found on The Outnet - the neckline is nearly identical and the red would be the perfect pop of colour for the jumpsuit. The fringed waistcoat would be wonderful with my NW3 by Hobbs Crosses jumpsuit (shown here). The black and white bikini top and the coral coloured bikini bottoms would be a nice match, too ...

Just ordered the pieces straight away, so let's see what will be a keeper!

IT'S A HIPPY WORLD!

Wearing Vintage Mexican tooled leather jacket from L.A. (shown here), Winter Kate Padma silk dress (also shown here), Dolce Vita Eliza Braid sandals (also shown here) and my beloved vintage L.A. tooled bag
On a sunny day like this, what could be better than grabbing your guy, going out to the meadows, picking flowers and wearing your fave hippy pieces? I'm so proud of my Mexican leather jacket I found in a vintage store in Los Angeles! The tooled bag with the L.A. lettering is from our Barcelona vacation two years ago. The Winter Kate dress is one of my faves, too - wore it on the last sunny day last year and this is the first dress I wore this year barelegged!

Really miss vintage shopping and digging for late 60s gemns like this - really looking forward for our Barcelona vacation!

DO THE HIPPY HIPPY SHAKE! THE JUMPSUIT.


Wearing NW3 by Hobbs Crosses jumpsuit (from the summer sale 2012), Cynthia Rowley leather bag from L.A. and Dolce Vita Eliza Braid sandals from 2011.
The printed pants love continues! Well, this a jumpsuit made of silk and I love it. Grabbed it 2012 in the summer sale for a fraction of the retail price. British highstreet stores that are a bid on the upper end of the price scale really offer good quality pieces for an affordable price. And the sales are unbeatable.

This jumpsuit is so perfect and after my Isabel Marant pants (shown here and here), this is my fave for this season. Very boho, reminds me a bid of the Chanel star printed jumpsuit Kate Moss wore on her birthday (check out here). Well, not the worst inspiration for a late 60s look, isn't it? This is my day version of the look: Combined with some gladiator sandals and a pop of colour with that bag (yes, my fave at the moment and featured in nearly every outfit).

JUST ANOTHER COWGIRL MEETS CLASSY LOOK!

New in: Iro Side Striped skinny jeans, combined with my all time favourites: Rag&Bone silk blouse, Helmut Lang jacket and Jeffrey Campbell Roulette flats (shown here, here, here and here).
The latest addition to my wardrobe are these phantastic embroidered Iro skinnies bought at The Outnet, my fave source for quality pieces. Love their light colour and the embroidery really make them stand out. A bid classy, a bid cowgirl, just me. They are hippy-tastic and they go so well with my classics, too. As you can see I really have a crush on the Jeffrey Campbell Roulette flats and the Helmut Lang Eon jacket I thrifted in L.A. Just wear both pieces over and over again and never get bored of them.

DANISH DESIGN: OLD MEETS NEW.

On my coffee table (that is Danish, too!): Hay Kaleido trays and Stelton Cylinda (by Arne Jacobsen) coasters.
A pop of colour on my Danish Modern coffee table: Hay Kalaido trays, used as a coaster for my glass carafe, and some real classics by Arne Jacobsen for Stelton. Discovered Hay some time ago, the Danish brand took the blogger scene by storm, but I have to commit it's for a reason. The trays I bought as a center piece for my coffee table really make it look much nicer. They add a pop of colour to the wooden table, make it look more contemporary and they are functional, too!
