Sports luxe with The Outnet


A few weeks ago I did some styling with The Outnet! Check out the video above where I talk a bit about my style and how I wear the sport luxe look.

I am also taking over The Outnet's Pinterest over the next week, where I will be pinning some of my favorite items and sporty looks that I love. Check it out here

Lately on Instagram


Lately I've been... Drooling over designer shoes, who decided that the US sale starts before the UK one? Lots of things in the new flat keeping me busy, shooting with Fudge and Rankin, longing back to New York and regretting I never bought that Wang knit plus an awesome find - pinstripe jeans! I happily left with the black ones.

Yesterday we got to enjoy clear skies here in London, and I had a chance to wear some new things that I have been saving for a day like this. I’ve finally joined online community - Fashiolista and to kick that whole thing off, we are doing a promotion together where one of you can win £500 to spend at online store Stanwells, check it out here. I was quick to jump on this chance to collaborate with Stanwells as they sell some of my favorite brands like Equipment, Muubaa and Joseph that I think has one of their best collection out this fall. Plus when would I ever say no to a chance to shorten your holiday shopping list?

Although I used to know Juicy Couture for their velvet track suits, they’ve recently put a lot of effort in to re-launching their image, especially in the UK and I think it deserves a mention. I'll even will be hosting an event with them early next month. But for now checks it is, as I seem to have taken an unusually strong liking for both striped and checked pieces this season.

Firm favorite



My Acne chain bag has been my favorite thing lately. The not so subtle chain works almost like a piece of jewelry, or in other words, no necklace really match with an industrial chain running across your chest..
