I was pretty darn lucky yesterday- I even got to choose some clothing. I'm already completely and madly in love with the jacket. It's pretty close to perfect! The jeans were also picked out yesterday, and I'm really into the baggy look they have. Those who read the blog regularily, know, that I'm not one to stray from the skinny jean very often. But these are really great- the cut fits perfectly with the dark, "messy" wash the jeans have.

To "tighten up" the look, I put my hair into a tight ponytail and wore statement lipstick.

Today was a pretty big day for me- I did a photoshoot for the clothing company Rütme (check out their blog here). I had so much fun working with them and I am, of course, overly excited to see the end result! As soon as I receive visuals, I'll share them with you guys :)

And to finish off, I want to share a few more outfit pictures from London.

I was out all day, enjoying the weather. Beaches, being scantily clad, sun and BBQs.. I can't wait for more lovely weather and days off!

I've become quite partial to pink. I don't know what it is.. But more and more pink items have snuck their way into my wardrobe as of late. I kind of like it though. Also, I bought a pair of 501 Levi shorts in London. Check it all out.

Just like everyone else in Blogland, I'm crazy about the weather we've been enjoying. As I promised, here's a shot of what I wore yesterday to my dad's birthday. Had an awesome night out with my brother.. Should I hit the streets again tonight?
 Gina tricot earrings, Samsøe & Samsøe dress, Won Hundred vest (my favourite way to wear this piece, is as a dress), Won Hundred shoes, YSL ring, Alexander Wang bag, and my new pink/purple lipstick from MAC.

And now for a few shots from town..

I'm on my way to my dad's 50th birthday. The weather is absolutely lovely (minus the wind of course, but I guess I'm used to that by now). I'll take a few shots of the entire outfit, but until then, here's my smokey face for ya'll. Have a nice Saturday everyone!

Last Saturday, while in London, we hit the streets for some more shopping. We visited Harrods and various other high-end stores. It was an experience all together.. Sure, it would be nice to have ass-loads of money to blow on anything you want, but after seeing all of these rich ladies, I realized how satisfied I am with the economic means I have.

You know, the feeling of saving up for several months, the anticipation of your next big purchase- it's not something you take for granted. If you had money for everything you wanted, would you really appreciate what you have?

I'm now finally back from London- my entire week is going to be extremely hectic, so posts of things I bought will have to wait. But until then, I managed to get a few outfit shots from London.

It was really a great trip. Couldn't have asked for more (other than more money hahaha). To start off, I'll show a picture from our last day. We visited the Acne store. Holy shit, a beautiful store. They've been so meticulous with the decore, you can really feel the attention they've paid to every detail. So.. I recommend you visit it, if you're in London.
Second Female sweater, Samsøe Samsøe jeans, Gina Tricot sunglasses, Converse, and.. My new bag! Say hello to Emile.

There are a lot of things I don't address on my blog. I seldom talk about my private life (my job, my future, my relationship status, and so on). I usually keep it pretty fashion related (or music, or Sufjan my dog) as I'm afraid of sharing too much. This is the Line Andree you guys know:
I know that makes it tough for readers to get a concrete feel for who I am. I recently posted some quite private pictures and only got positive response. The few days, where the above mentioned pictures were taken, really captured a different side of me. It's odd how someone with a camera, can get so close and see more than what I even see myself.

And I'm off to London tomorrow- I'm very much pumped. I remember ordering the tickets in January, thinking, "Shit, April is so far away, it's as though I have to wait forever". But truth be told, time has been flying by. Quite frightening actually. I sometimes get overcome by this uncomfortable feeling, that I'll wake up tomorrow and my entire life has passed me by.

So from now on, I'm living for me.

I've started packing for London- I leave Friday morning and cannot wait. I have a big purchase to make (I'll give you a hint- a replacement for my loved and lost Alexander Wang Rocco). It'll be nice to have a proper purse again.

Other than shopping, we have several plans. Visiting markets, being all touristy, drinking lattes, consuming chic raw food, and so on. It'll be nice to get away a bit, enjoy myself in the company of one of my closest friends, and blowing pounds any way I desire.
Acne jacket, new Second Female sweater, new Lasse Balschmidt booties (love the chunky heel).

I'm finally able to wear my beloved Acne jacket. Welcome Spring, welcome! You're well received.

What a day yesterday. I got some extremely positive and exciting news. And literally 30 minutes later, I got some really shitty news. Why is life like that?

There are some products I would really prefer not to be without. The below products have been bought again and again, because they have proven worthy..
For as long as I can remember, I've always had dry lips. I've pretty much been using Blistex Lip Medex since I was 8 years old (I kid you not). It has the perfect consistency and you can feel it working. The taste and smell are what one might call an "acquired taste", but you're not supposed to be eating it, now are you?
 MAC's concealer and Aveda's Tinted Moisturizer are fabulous products. The concealer is quite thick- I like this, as it conceals my quite prominent under-eye bags well. Aveda's Tinted Moisturizer is a light-weight product that hydrates the skin and gives it a fresh glow. Because I've never had bad skin, aside from the one or two small blemishes, I don't need much converage.

Both products contain SPF 15 which I think is a huge plus. Even though it's winter, the sun's rays can still be harmful!
 A big part of my actual make-up routine, is mascara. I've tried a lot of mascara's through-out the years. These 3 are great, but my favourite has to be Clinique's High Impact. It has a thick wand with plenty of bristles. In my world, there is no such thing as too much mascara. The bigger, the better.
 The last year or so, I've become a big fan of lipstick (as oppposed to lipgloss). I've found that if you want a sweet look, but don't have the time/energy to do too much with the eyes, then just go for a lipstick. These are my four current favourites.. The two in the black cases are from the Make-Up Store, the red one is frmo Clarins and the nude coloured one if from The Body Shop.
I like great colours. I like long-lasting nailpolish. And Chanel works for me. I know a lot aren't impressed by Chanel for several reasons, but I beg to differ. These are my current favourite shades.

I picked up a few lovely things today. And one of the things was a new lipstick from the Makeup Store. I am completely in love with it already. I cannot wait to wear it with a good tan and cut-off shorts this summer. But until then..

The Last 24 hours of my life looked like this:
4 k run
Insane night out in town
3 hours of sleep
4½ hours of work

Needless to say, I am haggard beyond all means. I'm so happy that I have the day off tomorrow. That means sleeping in, hanging out, taking pictures and doing everything on my own time.

I wasn't really supposed to spend 1500kr on a pair of shoes (seeing as I have a trip to London coming up), but they're perfect. I love the knotted detail, the excessively chunky heel, and the fact that one is actually able to walk in them, helps as well.
