The Heavy Metal Lover

I am loving the lookbook for Luv Aj's newest jewelry collection, and not to mention the beautiful pieces! I need my jewelry to be chunky and edgy statement pieces, so you may guess why I am in love. Those anklet metal cuffs (which can also be used as an upper arm bracelet) are wayyy cool.

Caroline's Coats

I have an enormous thing for coats, especially those that are designed for autumn and winter. Maybe it's because I live in a country where it's freezing cold almost all year around, or maybe it's because I read so many Swedish blogs where the girls always have the most incredible winter coats. I'm guessing that both points have something to do with it. Caroline Blomst, for example, owns the best coats. I would not mind getting my hand on all of these.

Rosie Huntington-Whitely for Vogue Germany November 2011

Photographer Alexi Lubomirski has captured bombshell Rosie Huntington-Whitely for the cover of the November issue of Vogue Germany, and Rosie never looked more sexy if you ask me. Her large, pouty lips, her "come hither" stare and her full, wavy locks all scream that she's pure sex on legs. I absolutely love the first cover - there's something about an amazing diamond necklace against naked skin.

Which cover do you like best?

The Perfect Emmanuelle

I would not mind wearing this outfit today - everything from the black skinny jeans (probably from TopShop as Emmanuelle Alt is a huge fan of their jeans), to the baggy shirt with rolled-up sleeves tucked into the jeans, to the amazingly chic Hermès bracelet. That bracelet is so high on my wishlist - I think I'd wear it with everything if I owned it.

The Edgy Lucy Williams

Lucy Williams is absolutely fantastic. She has this wonderful ability to combine edgy pieces without making the result look too hard. The cool, black leather jacket and boots are softened down by the knit, creating an exciting contrast between the hard and the soft. I love the gold accessories, and that she is wearing the leather jacket over her shoulders. I need to do that more too.

I Heart Miranda

I am just becoming more and more obsessed with Miranda Kerr's amazingly cool style, as you might have noticed with the recent posts. I am so in awe of her ability to have a little baby, work major shows during Paris Fashion Week and dress like an elegant, urban and oh-so stylish woman. This outfit proves how she always manages to look perfect from head to toe.

Nasty Gal

This styling is sooooo good. I had such a hard time choosing only some of my favourite looks from the Nasty Gal boutique, but here are a selected few. I'll be dreaming of these looks all weekend. And I just have to mention how gorgeous this model's hair is. The most perfect locks!

Which look is your favourite?

Nicole's Basics

I am always in search simple and elegant basics. The reason? Because I want to wear outfits like Nicole's every day. The white t-shirt has such a great cut and fit, and teamed with denim shorts is such a classic combination. The belt, sunglasses and leopard flats complete the outfit perfectly. This reminds me that I desperately need a pair of leopard shoes - they spice up everything!

Silver Love

I am so weak for every item of clothing that is metallic. If it's shimmery and silver, I am sold at once. Therefore I am craving this cardigan so badly. After learning that it is from H&M, I have been trying to hunt it down, but no such luck. I'm not surprised though, as I'm sure it was ripped away as soon as it was hung out in the shop. 

Have any of you bought it? It looks extremely good with a black, sexy slip. Perfect for autumn mornings.

Nicole Richie + Isabel Marant

I have been pining away over these Isabel Marant pants, only in white, for the longest time. However, after seeing this photo of Nicole Richie, I'm loving them in black even more. Just look at how incredible it looks when the pants are teamed together with a classic black blazer and killer heels. One day soon I might just have to give in to my Isabel Marant obsession.

What do you think of these Isabel Marant pants? Do you like them better in white or in black?

Gala Gonzalez

Gala Gonzalez is one cool cat. I love this outfit which the photographers behind Stockholm Streetstyle captured during London Fashion Week. There's a lot going on - from the preppy look of the buttoned-up shirt and white jumper thrown over, to the edginess of her skinny jeans and bright gold jewelry, to the bohemian vibe added by the wide hat, the slouchy bag and those gorgeous boots - but still it doesn't look messy at all. It looks damn great.

Erin Wasson in Leather and Stripes

Erin Wasson is one of those few people who can wear absolutely anything and look great in it. Such as this outfit. There aren't many who could pull off a leather cropped top and a sheer striped maxi skirt in one go, but Erin most certainly can. What makes this outfit even more edgy is her different accessories - I love it when people wear lots of jewelry that comes from all over the world. It's such a unique and personal expression.

That Zara Coat

During the weekend, I popped into Zara to have a quick peek. However, that quick peek turned into a rather long visit, and resulted with me buying this fabulous coat as seen here on the lovely blogger, Angelica Blick. I have already worn it every day since I got it, as it works so well with nearly everything. I love how elegant and ladylike I feel when I put it on. Next time (which will probably be tomorrow knowing me), I'll wear it together with a pair of red heels as Angelica.

Cuff Tips

I have seen so many girls walking around with cuffed tips on their crisp white shirts, and every time I catch myself thinking "Where can I find something similar?". Looking through the Asos website, I discovered these various takes on the cuff tips. I absolutely love the last one - it's so classic and elegant. The golden hands are growing on me every time I look at them - so cool. As for the spiders, they are a great piece to add to your outfit if you're thinking of being a edgy, classy witch for Halloween.

Paris Perfect

And on the same note as the previous post; hooray for Paris chic elegance! The sexy black, sequined top is gorgeous next to the light, dreamy fabric of the crimson maxi skirt. Those black patent heels bring a subtle S&M feeling to the outfit, which is so good right now, fashion wise. And the Chanel bag polishes off the look perfectly, but then again, which outfit wouldn't be polished off with the classic bag?!

In The City

Nothing inspires me more than French style, and more specifically Parisian chic elegance. I have this never ending fascination of how French women dress themselves, and every time I discover an editorial inspired by the French, I have no choice but to save it in my inspiration folder. And let me tell, that folder is growing and growing and growing. This editorial from the September issue of Elle France is amazing. It is pure Paris style - I just can't take my eyes off these images. Ahh, one day I think I have to move to Paris - I just don't have a choice!

London Girl

I first saw a photograph of this girl in this outfit at elle.com, and instantly fell in love with her style. When I found this photo of her at Stockholm Streetstyle, I just couldn't resist posting it. This girl's style is a perfect example of why I like London style so much; it's the mix of the feminine and edginess, the soft materials and colours against the harder accessories, and the utter coolness and confidence that she exudes.

T-Shirts, Denim + Isabel Marant

Model inspiration on a wet and windy Friday. I just can't stop dreaming of those white, patterned trousers by Isabel Marant - how perfect wouldn't they be teamed with a large, chunky knit?! And Candice Swanepoel is just gorgeous. I love her t-shirt/denim shorts/snakeskin heels combination. This is definitely going in my inspiration folder.

Autumn Lady

I've just sat down with a cup of steaming hot tea, lighted vanilla scented candles and am ready for some autumn wardrobe inspiration. These were the first images that I found, and they really inspire me as they show off my favourite way of dressing: like an elegant, Parisian bohemian. To achieve this look go for large hats, chunky gold jewelry, rich colours, silk turbans, and last but not least, smokey eyes. Think Rachel Zoe, as she is the reigning queen of this style.

Elizabeth Olsen covers Nylon Magazine October 2011

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's younger sister, Elizabeth Olsen, is one of the up and coming It Girls right now. Back in January, she stood out at the Sundance Film Festival, and in May, she sparkled at the Cannes Film Festival while representing "Martha Marcy May Marlene" - a movie where she has the leading role. Now she has landed the cover for the October issue of Nylon Magazine, where she looks so amazingly cool. I am loving the layering, typical Olsen style. I am looking to seeing more of Lizzie as she seems like such a sweet and talented woman.
