OOTD - Neon birds

Hej med jer,

(English below)

Lige et hurtigt casual outfit fra den anden dag da jeg drak kaffe med Rikke. Hun skal til Full Figured Fashion week i næste uge og jeg er virkelig misundelig! Møde de andre skønne plus size bloggere OG shoppe i NYC! What's not to like! :-) Men jeg smutter faktisk også på ferie, til Algarve, Portugal. Sol, strand, god mad og klipklappere, here I come! Jeg gad godt være modig nok til at tage et par bikini-billeder til jer med den fine "Lucille" bikini jeg købte fra Panache. Det er såmænd ikke mit blæver jeg er bange for at vise, men jeg er seriøst hvidere end hvid og jeg vil jo ikke blænde nogen ;-) Lad os se om jeg kan samle mod til mig, mens jeg er der.

Hi guys, 


Just a quick, casual outfit from the other day when I had coffee with Rikke. She is going to Full Figured Fashion week next week and I am SO jealoux! Meeting up with other plus size bloggers AND go shopping in NYC! What's not to like! :-) But I am actually also going on vacation next week, to Algarve, Portugal. Sun, beaches, good food and flip flops, here I come! I wish I was brave enough to take a few bikini shots for you with the pretty "Lucille" bikini I got from Panache. It is not as much my blubber I am afraid of showing you, but I am SO pale I would blind you! ;-) Let us see if I can muster up some courage while I am there.

 T-shirt with branches and neon birds - Saint Tropez // Army cargo pants - HM+ // Black blazer - Ellos // Black studded peeptoe stillettos - Guess

 Vinden får mit hård til at se vildt dumt ud! :-)

The wind is making my hair look crazy! :-) 

 Close up of the bird print tee from Danish brand Saint Tropez. It is a straight size XL, but quite generous in the sizing. 

 One of my favorite pieces of jewelry a leather charm bracelet ("Story") from Danish brand Kranz & Ziegler

Suede studded peeptoes from Guess. Bought them 4 years ago at Darling Harbour in Sydney, Australia.

Jeg tager afsted til Portugal i morgen (aaaaaaalt for tidligt) uden min labtop, så der bliver stille den næste uges tid. Men kig ind hos Sticky Sweet Danish eller Miss Cherry Lipz i stedet, de vil blogge fra Full Figured Fashion Week i NYC.

I am leaving for Portugal tomorrow morning (waaaay to early) so there will be radio silence for a week or so. But go and visit Sticky Sweet Danish or Miss Cherry Lipz instead, they will be blogging from Full Figured Fashion Week in NYC.

See you soon!

Collections - Shoes

I thought, over the next couple of months, I would share some some of my "collections" with you.

When I was a kid I collected Barbie dolls, scented stationary, glossy pictures and even napkins at one point in time! Today I collect other beautiful things like clothes, shoes and accessories ;-) So, besides the shoes, you can look forward to a glimpse of my handbag collection, earring collection and my collection of leather jackets.

 

 Sequin and satin Mary Janes - Pedro García

Burgundy satin platforms with velvet bows - New Look

Black suede peeptoes with gold studs - Guess

Navy satin peeptoes with diamante - Friis & Co

Black stillettos with studs and diamante stones - Blink (heavely inspired by the 2009 Balmains)

Of course I would like you to think that all of my shoes are stillettos and that I wear them anywhere and all the time ;-) But that is just not realistic... So here is a couple of my favorite "practical" shoes: 

Winter red suede ballerinas with grosgrain bows - Pretty Ballerinas (seriously if you do not own a pair of PBs, you need to buy them NOW, they are really pretty and VERY comfortable)

Ice pink flip flops with diamante stud - Havaianas

And finally a little peek into their home in my giant closet (thank you Ikea!):
