Trend: Sportswear, Neon, and Excuses
Gina Tricot "Daniella" shorts in black and neon yellow, 79 kr. I snagged these awesome running shorts x2 last week from Gina Tricot, and as part of a -20% promo at that ? fedt! Although I'm strictly meant to be participating in my self-ascribed 2nd annual "No Shopping Month" (naturally, the shortest month of the year...), I seem to be having about as much success as last year.

12.01.12 + White Matte
January fav: NYX White Matte polish Check that hair out ? who let's me out in public?? (Slash has anyone seen my comb...? I kind of need it back.) This was an über quick snap on the way out the door (literally, hence the lovely view of my ceiling). But I wanted to show off my latest polish obsession, before it got all chipped and bedraggled from general life-living (I

Trend: Stackables
Is it just me, or are stacked wrists the one trend that doesn't seem to have budged since the Olsen Twin's were old enough to dress themselves?? I love the look, but am generally too lazy on my average-Monday-morning to slog on that many bracelets ( summer vacay being the obvious exception). I usually stick with an oversized timepiece + 2 or three smaller bangles, but I have to

Memories
Lovely ladies at B-more's! My 5" heels make D look almost normal-person height...! Snuggles with my bff...and her bf. Confused by the impending invasion Surf's up! I'm on a tight deadline this week at work, but naturally found the time to wax nostalgic last night over some pics from my last visit home in June/July. These snaps are from my first night out in

Flower Power
How much do I love it when the mail gets here before I kick it to the office in the morning? If only every day started this way...ya, I would pretty much never make it to work. No really, I went from running ahead of schedule (true story, I swear), to late in 2 packages flat. Not late-late, but seeing as I was aiming for an early appearance this morn...I'm going to chalk thi

Trend: Know Your Collars
Aram Necklace ( Dannijo ); Ivory Sequin Collar ( Gemma Lister ). Flower Bean Collar ( Topshop ); Assymetric leather collar ( Etsy ). Here is a no-brainer trend for 2012: the collar. This one seems to have picked up some serious speed since last year, and is barreling towards Spring at full throttle. I haven't been entirely swayed to hop the bandwagon just yet...unless

WOTE covering Gotye
Here is a little weekend guf for you all (aka: Walk off the Earth covering Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know"). My friend shared this bad boy last night via Facebook, and I think I've already watched it about a million times. I think it's fair to call it extremely rad ? but careful, it will get stuck in your head like whoa.Happy Saturday! xo E.

www.2handfashion.com Launch
Of course a brand-spanking-new Danish online shop had to open the day I vowed to cut myself off from online shopping for the month. Typical. Anyway, I decided that said vow didn't really kick in until...5:37pm. Which is around when I finally managed to chose just one lovely little vintage piece out of 2handfashion.com 's rad selection.

Always the crafty one, K has yet again come up with a super simple DIY that looks expensive and oh-so-chic. I especially love the frayed hem, which adds the perfect edge. &

Latest Love: Unicorn Clutch + Project Accessory
Brian Burkhardt Unicorn Clutch for Kenneth Cole, $300 via KennethCole.com I want it (see above), I want it, I want it! Hell, I want it now yesterday. And if this clutch didn't come with a cool $300 price tag, it would be en route to me as I type this. So on to Plan B: I officially send this out to the universe as my #1 birthday wish.

Trend: Mesh (à la Kate Bosworth)
I have been doing a little post-Xmas shopping with some spare gift cards, and came across a little mesh number on Nelly.com (above) that took straight me back to 2003. No really: this was the last time I owned a "mesh" (aka fishnet) shirt. In nude. Don't ask me why. Anyway, since I had a vague memory of reading "mesh" and "spring 2012 trend" in the same sentence ?? which at the time mad

Tommy's Boys
Tommy Ton via Style.com The holidays have been fab, but I think that I am about ready for a warm-weather retreat - preferably somewhere where the boys dress like this. The above snaps are a few of my fav Tommy Ton's, which capture the über-bright menswear scene that punctuated the SS12 fashion week season. Needless to say, they make it pretty clear that if you don't have a

Go to's
While just hitting full tempo on the other side of the pond, Xmas is all but wound down here in Dk. Today was spent eating leftovers, småkager, getting in the last of the holiday gløgg, and playing with the kiddies and their new toys (I would just like to throw this out there right now: if I ever procreate, please don't gift my offspring with drums until they're old enough to buy th

Glædelig Jul!
Jeg er hjemme fra kirke, juletræet er pyntet, go Disneys juleshow er set igen igen. Jeg vil bare gerne ønske jer alle en rigtig glædelig Jul fra mig og min til dig og din! Nu er jeg klar til at spise mig ihjel...uhmm. I've been to Church (did you hear that Mum?), the Christmas tree is decorated, and the Disney Christmas special has been watched (again). Just wanted to wish you all a very Merr

Trend: Yves Klein Blue
L to R: Burberry Prorsum Spring RTW 2012; Stella McCartney, Christian Dior, Viktor & Rolf Resort 2012. IKB, or "Yves Klein Blue" was featured on a whopping 36 runways, in 4 cities (according to editd.com ). A hit for SS12? Me thinks so. I'm particularly enamoured with this budding trend, not only because I already scooped the perfect button-down in an IKB-esque

5PREVIEW SS12
Just a few of my 5preview must haves for spring! We all know 5preview for their iconic, subversive screen prints, which have toed the line of copyright infringement...a few times (think the linking 5's that were inspired by the Chanel logo). The upcoming SS12 collection, however, shows that the brand is capable of much more than cheekily replicating existing fashion logos, and can stand

Lagersalg + Pricing
Pre-salg hygge hos Lynfabrikken med den søde C. Yesterday evening was the opening night for the Stine Goya X Henrik Vibskov Lagersalg at Lynfabrikken in Aarhus. C & I headed down to the café for chats and chai, before heading out into the street to find....and line-up waaay down the block that had appeared in the 30min. since we had wandered by. Probably should have seen it coming, b

Trend: Ikat
If the SS12 runways have made anything clear, it is that tribal prints will be back with vengeance come warmer weather. Ikat is one of the must-have prints that is topping the trend list once again, punctuating the runways from Thakoon, to L.A.M.B., to Burberry Prorsum. All of this means just one thing for the discerning (and budget savvy) fashionista: scoop those 2011 pieces on sale.

Mini-Xmas Detox: Bentonite Clay Mask
Detox-ing à la Bentonite It's that time of year: the "official" Xmas season is looming on the weekend horizon, however for most people (read: the entire country of Denmark), the festive cheer (read: snaps. Haps!) has been in full swing since November. While I have nothing against the concept of the Julefrokost (let's face it - there really is no such thing as too many Xmas partie

I Draw
While I may in fact be the most lazy quasi-artist ever...I do, in fact, draw. And paint. And other generally crafty things. I don't, however, seem to possess the burning passion which drives other artists to continually produce and (more importantly) actually share what they do. I'm not sure if this makes me "closet artist"...or just selfish? I'm going to go with the l

Henrik Vibskov + Stine Goya
It's that time of year again: fashionable Christmas warehouse sales have been popping all over CPH, which is fantastic.....for those of you who call the capital home. However, those of use who are delegated to the more provincial corners of the country have a sparser fashion calendar this time of year. Luckily for me (and homicidal for my bank account), the Henrik Vibskov + Stine Goya la

Hello Again!
Making eyes at Air in the new Lady Lair Hold on to your floppy hats - CANADIEREN is back in black! I admit I have been woefully absent for many moons...238 to be exact (awful, awful, terrible, bad blogger.)
