Cacharel SS 09

As soon as I came across the Cacharel SS 09 collection I fell in love with it. This must be the prettiest collection I've seen so far at all the fashion shows this autumn... I love all the girlyness, frills, prints and pretty cuts. And all the hairbands are so beautful as well! This is how I would like to dress now, had it not been so cold, at least.

Rain.

It wasn't fun taking pictures outside in the rain, but this is what I wore today.






My shirt, wool skirt and tights arefrom H&M, and the shoes are from Bronx.

Knits.

The last few days I've been buying and stocking up on warm socks, tights, a scarf, gloves and a beret for the cold season with money that I got for my birthday... and I am very pleased with my find, although I don't feel that I am quite set yet. I still need more tights, which I can never get enough of. However, I am desperately looking for white tights, but I have only come across them in the H&M children's department (yet, only in too small sizes), so I hope they will get more of them eventually. They have so many nice tights in the children's department at H&M, which are both cheaper and seem to have much better quality than those they sell in the regular H&M, so I'm going to buy my tights there as long as they stock pretty ones that I want. The gray tights you can see in the picture below are also from H&M young. It seems like the colours I'll be wearing are mustard yellow and gray, for the most part.




White socks from H&M, gray tights from H&M, yellow acryllic scarf from Mexx, and gray acryllic beret and gloves from H&M.

I really want a knit cardigan as well. I spotted some in a shop from Norwegian designer Siv Elise Seland that I fell in love with because of the pretty colours and at the same time the traditional Norwegian pattern. However, I'm not sure if I can afford one at the moment... maybe I'll try to budget it in next month.




Ah, I just think it's lovely to be (almost) all set for the cold weather. What about all of you? Are you set, and what, if anything, are you still missing?


Last, but not least, I was tagged by the brilliant Marisa with the Gold Card with which I can buy anything I want in the world...



I would first of all like to buy myself a fabulous, big apartment in either Stockholm, London, Paris, or New York, but since the credit card is unlimited, why not in all four places? Then I would also decorate it the way I want, without having any economical restictions at all.

Also, I would love to go on a worldwide travel... there are so many places I want to visit - I want to go nearly everywhere.

I also want to complete my wardrobe with a lot of classical and high quality pieces that I can have for years and years.

For a long time I've also been wanting an excellent camera, so I would definitely get that, too. And I suppose some other technical things, like a new computer would be great.

What else? Yes, I would finally get my driver's license. I think it's quite bad to be 24 and not have one yet...

I guess I should also be noble and donate some of the money to worthy causes, and make sure that my family is financially set for life.

Candy.

Today I went for a walk in the forest with my dog (and my boyfriend), on yet another nice day. I was wearing a dress I recently bought on ebay, that makes me feel like a living candy stick.

Dress; asos (bought on ebay), top; Mango, shoes; Benetton, tights; Vero Moda.

The squirrels made it seem less lonely.

I was really excited to find an article about Jodelle Ferland in the most recent Lula magazine since it made me recall the film 'Tideland' which I watched a few months ago and fell in love with.



If you haven't watched this film, you should. It's filled with whimsical childish innocence and imagination, and the images are beautiful. In addition to that, it's quite amazing to see how well Jodelle Ferland plays her role, being only ten or so at that time.

It's as if the Lula photography is a continuation of the images in the film, also portraying such an innocent, magical and childlike world.

Saturday.

On saturday I celebrated my birthday (which was on Friday), and wore this dress. Unfortunately, I had just done the dishes when I took the photo, and being the clumsy person that I am, I managed to get my dress splashed with water. Oh well.



The dress is from H&M, and I can't remember where I got the pearls from.

Sunny autumn day.

Today my boyfriend and I went for a nice biking trip to the seaside since the day was so beautiful. We bought some delicious muffins at a shop and ate them sitting on some rocks in the sunshine. On a beautiful day like today, the sun makes the autumn colours in the grass, leaves and straws so magical. Oh, I wish all autumn days would be so sunny and nice and that we wouldn't get any rain at all.





I'm wearing a sweater from Benetton, shirt (underneath) from Bikbok, Jacket from Vero Moda, skirt from H&M, tights from Vero Moda, and shoes from Bianco.

Ribbons and smoothies.

I don't think I've ever posted a picture of my wonderful dog here (though he might have sneaked in on some), so I thought that maybe I should do it now, as I bought him a green ribbon to make him look prettier. I think he looks just adorable with it.


Recently I've also become addicted to making myself smoothies every night consisting of these ingredients;


Banana, soya milk, frozen blueberries and dried cranberries.




And, voila!



I always go through periods where I keep making, and wanting to have a specific thing over and over again, and this time around I suppose it's smoothies. Does anyone else also go through times where you crave a certain thing?

What I want for autumn and winter.

The last few weeks I've been thinking a lot about what my wishlist for autumn and winter is, which is natural, I suppose, as the weather is getting colder. I decided to make a little polyvore set to get some more ideas, and in order not to forget which things I initially wanted.

* A pretty tartan/plaid wool coat. I actually don't need another coat as the one I bought last year is still wonderful, but if I do stumble upon a tartan coat that I fall in love with, I might get it.

* A red umbrella. This one from 'Brolliesgalore' has a wonderful shape, too.

* Patent leather gloves. The leather gloves I own are suede, and every time it rains they're soaked.

* Wool tights in any colour are always welcome in my closet.

* Equestrian boots. These ones from Marc Jacobs are beautiful, but slightly too expensive for my budget.

* A pretty collar. This is actually a necklace since I couldn't find a collar on polyvore. Lovely nonethless. My only problem is that I don't really have any dresses that would look nice with a collar.

* A gray wool scarf.

* Flat and comfortable brogues. And preferrably two coloured ones.

What are your must haves for this season?

Autumn, already here.

Today was so cold, and it felt as if autumn had come nearly overnight. Perhaps it's fitting since today was the first day of September, which many of us also consider the beginning of autumn. However, I really would not mind at all holding on to summer for a little longer - the winters where I live are much too long. Nevertheless, I had the chance to wear my new trenchcoat, which I didn't buy when I was in London, but which I, luckily, got the shop where I found it to send to me. Wearing a beret was also fitting.
