Do you know...?

...the feelin' you get in the morning when you just don't feel like wearing jeans?


That's why chinos were invented! You can get them in different colors and they are ideal for the summer! ASOS has some GRRRRREAT chinos in amazing colors! As they forecast, "2012 is the year of the bright trouser. Better quality, better colours, the biggest choice."


They are quite cheap as well! I really like the skinny red chino and the greenish one. Experiment with different colors and types!


They cost around $50! Visit http://www.asos.com/





Who wears short short? We wear short shorts!




I really like shorts for the summer - especially the colorful ones! Dare to try different colors such as yellow, pink - yes, pink!! - green and blue. Just remember that they shouldn't be too short or too long... So the title of this post might be a bit misleading. ;)


The ideal length of a pair of short is just a bit over the knee. AND FOR GOD SAKE, DO NOT BUY BAGGY SHORTS OR SHORTS WITH LARGE POCKETS! THEY MAKE ME PUKE!


Khaki shorts are nice too. Wear them with a belt, perhaps a polo shirt, and some nice shoes. But really, you can ALMOST wear anything with shorts. Okay, I take that back! Do not wear shirts with long sleeves if you won't roll them up. Trust me, you don't want to look like a dork, do ya? I don't think so.


AND PLEASE! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! DON'T! JUST DON'T WEAR LONG SOCKS WITH ANY TYPE OF SHORTS! YOU MAKE ME PROJECTILE VOMIT! USE ANKLE SOCKS!


Some people like to wear flip-flops with shorts but if you aren't a 20-year-old Brazilian surfer then don't! I usually wear my navy blue canvas shoes from Fred Perry - depending on the color of the shorts. Get some nice toned-down shoes - preferably without laces or get same-colored laces.


OH RIGHT! PLEASE NO SHORTS WITH PATTERNS! JUST PLAIN SHORTS! You: "What about Hawaiian shorts?" Me: "Especially Hawaiian shorts!!!"


Almost every brand sells shorts but I recommend Tommy Hilfiger, Gant, and H&M.


Btw, I have no idea who these people are but they sure know how to wear shorts!

Kanye West tee

Hey y'all!
I recently bought this fucking amazing tee from H&M for just $20! I've written about Kanye West before and now I bought a t-shirt with his face on it... IN PURPLE!


It's really cool, even though I don't like the back. It should have been plain but who cares? I'm gonna wear it with a cardigan anyway!


What do y'all think?

Go big. Go hard. Go a-morir sunglasses!

If you want to make a statement, then you should definitely check out a-morir!




These (called Johnny) are covered in snakeskin printed leather, which makes them completely non-functional, but if you got the money then hey! What are you waiting for? This is a super über cool accessory!

These are called Halford II and are covered in silver studs. They ARE see through but I most definitely wouldn't use them while driving! ;D

See more here: http://store.a-morir.com/

Btw, celebrities such as Will.i.am, Adam Lambert & R. Kelly have worn a-morir sunglasses.

Fingerless driving gloves

Driving gloves were made to keep the hands clean when driving but they are also really trendy - especially the fingerless!


You might think that fingerless driving gloves only are for women but that's not true! If worn with the right clothes, the gloves can really be a great accessory for men too.


If you aren't completely convinced, you can also find fingerless gloves made out of cotton. Kinda hobo chic. Perhaps wear a leather jacket with them and some skinny black jeans!


I have a pair in cotton but I'm looking for some in leather!

Kanye West

I have to admit that I'm not a big fan of Mr. West's music but I am a big fan of his style. I'm always admiring his style choices.


Kanye West is mostly known for his music and has won 14 - yes, FOURTEEN - Grammy Awards out of 44 nominations.


West is pure in style - whether it is his hip hop style or his more classic style. He is not afraid of colors! Hell no! But he understands how to combine them to form a more simple look - unlike Nicki Minaj... ;)


Kanye West is definitely one of my favorite fashion celebrities. Here are some of my favorite West-looks:

Rainbow blazers!!!



I've spotted a recent trend and I'm dying to buy one of my own. I'm talking about colorful blazers! Yup, even Kanye West has one! Perfect for the Summer!


It doesn't matter, if it's green, pink, yellow or red! It's kinda untraditional. You usually see the typical, dull blazers in grey, navy blue and black.


I know Zara made a handful of blazers in different colors, but it was too late for me.


But seriously! Imagine a pink blazer with some light beige chinos and a white V-neck tee underneath... and perhaps throw in a light silk cardigan.


If you have seen a blazer in a vibrant color somewhere, please drop a comment!



Yours sincerely,
Me

Versace Cruise



I've been planning this buy for about a month before its release! I'm talking about the Versace Cruise collection for the very cheap Swedish brand H&M. Unfortunately, it was ALL sold out within an hour! Fortunately, they updated thquantities so I was able to buy some anyway. I was lucky enough to get a hold of some skinny jeans and a denim shirt. OF COURSE I'm NOT gonna wear them together! That would be a so called "fashion crime" and I'm not a criminal. ;)

I'm probably gonna wear the denim shirt with some skinny, grey pants - not made out of denim. Or perhaps some reddish chinos... You tell me!

This is not the first time that H&M has collaborated with Versace. The last collection caused major press coverage because of the outrageous colors and patterns. I was one of those who actually praised the collection and I did buy some underwear, a black tank top with silver studs and a black leather belt with golden studs. You might think, "Silver studs on a tank top... WTF?!" but imagine THAT with a black blazer and black skinny jeans. Yes, I am a BIG fan of skinny/slim fit jeans... no, not a fat fan...!

God, I kinda regret not buying that pink blazer.

Hey there!

Welcome to my blog!
I’m a 22 year old Dane. You will soon discover my passion for fashion – oh God, I hate that phrase – and my own personal style that you might find dazzling! …or not. Either way, I hope you will enjoy reading my posts.
I chose to start my own blog because I want to share my sense of style with others, especially Danes with their horrendous clothes, but also the rest of the world.
GET YOUR CAPPUCCINOS, Y’ALL – AND GET READY!
Leave a comment and bye…. …for now!
Yours sincerely,
Me
