MATTHEW WILLIAMSON - H&M

While the sun is shining and the spring finally has arrived in the streets of Oslo, the chit-chat-talk-about is Matthew Williamson's collaboration with H&M. Personally, I got a bit disappointed seeing the pictures, but turned out the spring collection looked a lot better in real life. Unfortunately, I didn't snap up any of my favs.

^ The blazer

^ The leather jacket

^ The whole outfit


BUT - there's always a but;) - luckily, there's also a summer collection coming out in May. Really hope these pieces look as good in real life as on the pics:

^ White blouses = a summer hit in my wardrobe. Feeling the ethnic/folklore-look.

^ Comfy boyfriend tees is what I need for the summer. These were cool.

BLESSINGS - 280409

MARQUIS & CAMUS

My very first blessing in this blog is dedicated Marquis & Camus. I randomly came over this brand a few days ago and it's doubtlessly worth a look. If you got a thing for Lanvin jewellery and statement accesories (like me), you'll definitely love Marquis & Camus. Their hand-made jewellery are outstanding and unique with vintage elements, such as vintage chandelier crystals and military pins. I noticed a great use of "chaining", silk bias ribbons, crystals and bows, which obviously makes it even better. Perfectly made for me, eh?:)

Yup, I love them.

SOME FAVORITES FROM THEIR COLLECTIONS AT THE PRESENT TIME:
- Victorian Romance



- Victorian Rebel


- Red Carpet



- Modern Rebel


- Joker


- Lt. Camus


...and btw, I don't mind money transfers...

Amazing jewellery, right?
My favorite collection is "Red Carpet". Hard to pick, though. The lamb-skin bracelets from "Modern Rebel" are literally perfect.

Pick and choose. Which collection did you like the best?

I WON, I WON!

13:40 I received a SMS saying (simplified):
Congratulations! Solveig just won a gift card from Cubus worth 500 kr.

500 kr isn't that much and Cubus isn't excactly my favorite store, but HEY! Receiving a gift card for putting on some Cubus pants, taking a picture and uploading it on their website is definately more than okay with me. And really, the store isn't that bad after all. Cubus has improved a lot after their "make-over" a few years ago. My plan is to lie in wait for the perfect item. Happy mood!

If you wonder how I won the gift card, I attended a jeans competition Cubus held.
The only two requirements were:
1. Wear a pair of Cubus-jeans
2. Take an outfit picture in front of a banner in a random Cubus-store.

My outfit looked like this:

CHAINY N' BLACK

Amazingly simple, yet perfectly stylish. Love the silhouette and I'm not fed up with chains, though it's been in the picture for a long time.
