The orange trousers

I first saw these bright orange peg trousers on the Zara web store, I had placed them in my virtual basket among many various other items that had caught my eye. However, as most virtual shopping baskets go, that was as far has the trousers had got. Then I stumbled upon a picture of Miroslava Duma (pic1) wearing a very similar pair in an 'emsemble', which actually turned out to be the orange trousers I had put in my basket weeks before. I was sold immediately and knew these would be a great statement piece for Autumn. Lucky for me they still had my size. A couple of days ago, I found a picture taken by Scott Schuman of these trousers and I knew I had made the right decision (pic2). Since, I have worn them quite a few times; for work paired with a simple black cardigan or jumper, more casually by pairing them with a denim shirt and bright print belt, or in the evening with a sporty tank top and leather belt (pic3). P.S: sporty tees seems to be doing a come-back, and I think we might have Isabel Marant to thank for this. Mine comes from Asos (old)

Tomorrow's outfit post will feature them, so stay tuned :)

Ladies it looks like this winter's cover up will be the baseball cap. It has been popping up all over the blogosphere and on some of the most gorgeous ladies. No need to look like a tomboy when wearing it either. The two baseball caps that have recently been popular are the black wool one from H&M men departement and teh grey and black one, also from H&M.

What do you think about this trend? Or do you have another cover up planned fro this winter?

Sal Y Limon

A huge thank you to Sal y Limon for this delightful package full of colourful bangles and cuffs. I am very bad when it comes to shopping for jewelry, even though I am actually getting better at it. My problem is I sit at the edge of both extrems; on the one hand, I like discret and very delicate jewelry. However, on the other hand, I love myself a big, bold statement piece. These cuffs/bangles, of course are part of the big and bold category, and brighten up any one of my 'otherwise fairly dull' outfits.

All pieces c/o Sal y Limon

silver cardigans & white shirts

Two small trend posts in one this time. Here are two really lovely and much wanted items from two brands that will never cesse to impresse me. The first is this amazing, and vintage looking silver jacket from the trend collection over at H&M. I would wear it exactly like Charlotte and Yara, paired with black jeans and a white tee. The second item, is the very sought after, crisp white shirt with the gold collar detailing. I am very that I will be taking a small trip to Antwerp on Saturday so hopefully I will find some of the stuff I have been wanting for a while then.
