The outfit I wore to Portobello Market today. Thought I’d show you how the top looked like on a person. Much better than on a hanger, don’t you agree? I think it’s adorable.

P.S.: I have had some problems with the blog, but everything should be back as normal now!

Went to Portobello Market with Josefin today, to do some trend/colour research for our assignment. Thought I’d share some of the pictures with you. Just took me 2 hours to get home, one days like these I hate living in London. Now I’m just gonna relax, than I’ll take some outfit-pictures.

Went shopping at my high street favourites yesterday, BikBok and H&M. Love what’s going on at H&M at the moment, the colors and the textures. YUMMY. The second top looks terrible on the hanger, but totally cute whilst wearing it. I’ll try to style it in an outfit tomorrow, so that you can have a look. I snapped a couple of pictures in the fitting room of some of the pieces I loved at H&M, will show you them too. And what has happened at BikBok? Until two seasons ago I couldn’t stand that store, but now my wardrobe consist of a lot of BikBok.

The only shopping I like in Paris is vintage. Or perhaps I should put it like this: I FREAKIN LOVE VINTAGE-SHOPPING IN PARIS!! We accidentally stopped went into this shop on our way to my favourite vintage-shop, and I found this amazing blue/purple jacket. They also had the most beautiful white, Dior coat you can imagine. I find it very hard to capture the color as it turns out either blue or purple, and it is something in between, like it the first picture. It will look great together with all the black I am wearing. I didn’t notice till afterwards that I had just bought a vintage Yves Saint Laurent.

Do not look at my food poisoned face. Now it’s back to bed.

I didn´t buy any of the super-fierce booties from Urban Outfitters I blogged in December. After I had to walk back home from a party, in a pair of shoes with slippery soles, I told myself: “Never again”, and bought a pair of combat boots the next day. It´s fleece inside and the soles are great. They are from Roots, and found them on sale for 799,-

What kind of shoes do you wear during the winter-months?

I am sick, AGAIN. Five of the girls who went to Paris, including myself, caught a virus or something. I planned on showing you the YSL piece I bought, but I need to sleep this off.

Friday we visited Mod’Art International to have a talk with the former commercial director of Dior and Céline. Afterwards we went to an exhibition called “Les années 1990-2000. Histoire idéale de la mode contemporaine vol. II ” at the fashion and textile museum. I liked it and these are some of my favourites pieces that were featured. The exhibition is available until 8th May.

I got this gorgeous Gestuz Dress from my mom when I was back home in Norway. I used it for styling in this editorial and it has been on my mind ever since. The coat is from Fretex, I bought it for 250nok.

Tomorrow: PARIS!!

Oasis Lightweight Skinny Jeans. The best jeans I have ever had, I actually have four pairs of the exact same jeans because they’re so amazing. I really don’t need other trousers than these. They are so comfortable and they almost feel like you’re wearing jeggings, fits perfectly and has a high-waist. The best thing is that it’s made out of 97% cotton and 3% elastane, so it is super-stretchy as well and great if you’re not a big fan of denim, as me. You can get them in black and denim. €47.00, £38.00, 599nok.

Have you found the perfect jeans yet?

• Sorry about the wrong date and crappy pics, I used my mobile-camera.

It’s said that a girl carries her life in her bag. When it comes to me, that is absolutely true. I carry most of this stuff with me most of the time:

• Balenciaga wallet- I can’t go anywhere without it, I keep all my cards in it. Travel insurance, HMV, driving licence, Starbucks card and lots of the shitty GBP-coins.
• Black card wallet, River Island- Holds my travel card and student card so that I can access school.
• Pink card wallet, River Island- Holds my English and Norwegian debit cards.
• Keys- To get into my flat.
• BlackBerry- Because I am paranoid and need to be available at all times, and I need the radio(Old school, but you can’t have Spotify on BlackBerry) .
• Umbrella,H&M- If you have ever been in London you know that the weather usually changes twice/three times a day. And it always start to rain when I haven’t brought it.
• Flats, H&M- I only bring these when I’m going out or are wearing wedges. In London you can end up doing a lot of walking/waiting.
• Gloves, Friis- I get cold when I am walking/waiting.
• Diary- This one is actually my life. I write down EVERYTHING. Dinners, lectures, trips, passwords, quotes.
• USB Stick- You never know when you need one. I mostly need it for school.
• Tube card- Mini-map of the tube.
• Pen and notebook- To write down directions, addresses and other stuff I might need.
• Cosmetic bag,YSL- If I need to freshen up during the day. Especially since as I earlier mentioned, the weather changes constantly.

• Toothbrush, “stole” it from Hilton Hotels.
• Comb, “stole” it from Hilton Hotels.
• Blush, MAC. Blush brush, Lancome.
• Concealer and concealer brush, The Makeup Store. This must be the best concealer I have ever tried.
• Mascara, MAC.
• Lipstick, Dior.
• Eyebrow Colour, H&M.
• Eyedrops, Boots.

Do you keep as much stuff in your bag? I finally found a new camera charger today, phew!

Stupid me have forgot my camera charger back home in Norway. So tomorrow I will have to buy a replacement, meanwhile you can enjoy the Alexander McQueen S/S 11.

Christmas present to myself. A men’s watch from Sekonda.

Do you wear a watch?

Am starting feel a bit better now and we’re going out later on, so I’ll show you my lovely Gestuz dress tomorrow!

Bumped into these shorts whilst I was in H&M the other day. Thought you might like them. The dark spots are see-through holes, I can’t really figure why they’re there..

I don’t feel too good and haven’t left my bed in a couple of days, therefore the lack of outfits. Have a great weekend!
