Cheap leather jackets!

Leather jackets are one of the rare items that are always cool and stay hot year after year. But the look of the iconic jacket changes every season, so having a few different styles in your wardrobe is a not a bad idea. I always wear my leather jackets during spring and fall as they are perfect “season transition” items.

This spring  i updated my leather collection with a white jacket from ZARA, that is a big oversize with a biker cut. I bought it on sale and I love it.

Another style I really like this season is the “lacer-cut” leather jacket from Helmut Lang. Unfortunately the original is out of my reach money-wise, but I found this one from Oasis that is still in a good quality and on half price.

Boyfriend chic

 

Im crazy about boyfriend jeans at the moment and my favorite combo is definitely to pair them with a set of stilettos to ad a feminine chic touch. Destroyed boyfriend jeans with strappy stilettos – in my world thats a win.

What is your spring obsession?

High End VS High Street #1

Hi everyone

I just wrote a blog post on Vera Vega’s blog – you can check out the original post here

At Vera Vega we are big fans of affordable fashion, which is also the reason why we make jewellery at prices most people can afford, but that still looks edgy, chic and super cool. The same holds true for the many great high street companies that have gained popularity the last years. My own favourites are ZARA, Topshop, COS and the latest project by H&M; &Other Stories looks very promising.

The high street brands are often inspired by the high-end and established designers and that is sometimes very evident in their designs. The great thing is that we then have the opportunity to acquire the latests trends and must-haves at affordable prices. And remember, buying high-street sometimes makes it possible to invest in really great designer items once in while :)

Obligatory New Years

New years eve is approaching and like every other blogger I need to make an update about my outfit for the “big” party :) Well Im not that much of a dress-girl so Im going for a monochrome, minimalistic & tux-like look. I’ve turned to one of my favorite brands – ZARA – for inspiration.

The best ZARA…

..that I know of you find in Marseille. That store is nothing less than amazing and every year it is tradition that we go there and I spend my whole budget on shopping all at once. This year I spend more than my budget – ups – but they just got all their beautiful fall items in and I got carried away.

 

 

 

 

Top – Cos, Skirt – H&M, Wedges (bought on a french market) – armcandy – Marc Jacobs & Vera Vega

 

Cannes

Cannes is one of my favorite cities in the world. We went there to enjoy the city, shop, eat and meet up with good friends.

 

 

 

During the day I had on a denim skirt which I have made from an old pair of Miss Sixty jeans – the top is from H&M – and the jewellery is from Marc Jacobs and Vera Vega. I changed into a transparent, coral skirt from ZARA when we went out in the evening. I sorry for the bad quality in the pictures – my camera let me down in the evening :/

June temptations from ZARA

ZARA is without a doubt one of my favorite high street brands and the look-book from June 2012 reminds me why. Zara is really good at snapping up a trend and making affordable and new cool takes on the trend. Just look at the leather jacket and loafers with spikes, the bling details on the white shirt’s collar, the turquoise sandals, the fringe shirt, the Dannijo inspired necklace. I’m in love, especially with the red, spiked jacket!

ZARA er uden tvivl et af mine ynglings high street mærker og deres lookbook fra denne jni måned minder mig om hvorfor. Zara er rigtig gode til at se en trend og lynhurtigt lave deres egne cool fortolkninger af den trend. Bare se på læderjakken og loaferne med nitter, skjortekraven med bling, de turkise sandaler, skjorten med frynser og den Dannijo inspirerede halskæde. Er er vild med det hele, især den røde jakke med nitter er et musthave for mig.
