My favourite items

I believe this Autumn offers a wide range of exciting items to add to your wardrobe like fur jackets, biker jackets in suede and also leather jackets seem to be a year-to-year trend. This Autumn you can also find different kinds of leather trousers or fake leather leggings. Black or navy velvet is common material when it comes to dresses and leggings. Also checked shirts, oversized knitted cardigans and sequins is a favourite to use in combination with leggings. The big shoe wear trend seems to be over-the-knee-boots, but that´s not really my style. In case you are interested in trends I have fallen for this Autumn - here are some of my favourite items right now.

I find this Fjällräven jacket to be a perfect Autumn jacket that you can wear year after year. It´s timeless!
Another jacket I love to wear is my leather jacket in biker style that I wear under my fur west.

Checked shirt from Monki.

Another checked shirt and this one is from Vila.

Gold and black oversized top from H&M that I combine with black leggings.

I love black leggings - preferable with some details or in a different quality than cotton. I like the fake leather details very much. These leggings are from Monki, H&M and Gina Tricot.

I also like these leggings with biker stitches at knee. Right now I´m looking for a pair of jeans with the same stitches but I can´t find the right ones that also have a nice wash and fits perfectly...

I bought this grey cardigan today at H&M Divided. I bought the same one last year but I have worn it that much and now it doesn´t look so good :-( I´m so happy that they did a repeat order of this style!

I also bought this top today.

Din Sko or Balenciaga? My favourite party shoes.

I love my new boots from Ten Points that are almost exactly copied from Acne´s Pilotes boots. I´ve looked for the Pilotes boots at every Acne store but it seems like they only have them in grey and suede this year. Of course I wanted the original ones but now I got these and I´m totally satisfied.

My lovely Botkier bag in perfect size and you can wear it at every occasion.

Art in Berlin

Just got home from a trip to Berlin. Unfortunately the number of stores weren't as many and of that high quality as I've expected. It is a fact that Germans and Swedes dress differently. I leave it to you to interpret...:-) A fun thing that happened was that a photographer from a fashion magazine took some photos of my outfit :-) Even though I've expected more of the clothing offer, I was very surprised and amazed by the furniture second-hand shops. Too bad I couldn't bring anything home. The graffiti art and many art galleries were another thing that amazed me. If you're interested in art I really recommend you to visit Berlin.

NN07 SS10

NN07 (means No Nationality 2007) is a brand created by two danish friends that worked for Bruuns Bazaar for many years. They started the brand NN07 two years ago. They describe the clothes as "Sport couture", a mix of sport and fashion. With sport they mean clothes that are comfortable like chinos and shorts.

Ulric Pedersen and Victor Lindh

The look for SS10 is relaxed and it´s a very well-laid collection with good qualities. In this collection you can for sure see chinos, parkas, oxford shirts and cardigans that they use in every collection as signature items. It also contains blazers that are suitable to combine with shorts or chinos. I think it´s a very nice collection and here are some of the garments that you can find in shops in a couple of months.

A version of the classic duffel

Checked shirts seem to be trendy for next Spring too.

A navy blazer that you can wear with jeans, chinos, shorts...

Nice combination

I like the fit of this tee and that they have that worn out feeling.

Checked shirts

There are so many nice shirts right now and I just love the checked ones. I really like my new checked shirts and use them very often combined with leggings or unwashed jeans. Although I think the selection is much better for men this Autumn and I believe more and more men are falling for the trend. Check out these nice shirts!

Polo Ralph Lauren

I also have to show you this denim shirt from ACNE. Invest in a nice denim shirt and you can wear it at almost every occasion. Combine it with a t-shirt and a knitted sweater or cardigan that is perfect to wear right now when it´s getting colder. Think layer on layer and you can use it with many different outfits.

H&M Divided Exclusive

Tomorrow H&M launch their new collection Divided Exclusive. I saw the collection in London and I´ve also seen it on the web before where they have been selling the clothes for a couple of weeks. I wonder why they don´t launch it the same day as on the web. I think that would create more publicity and it also makes the collection more exciting.

I´ve seen this collection in magazines all Summer and I must say that I´m already a little bit tired of it, but maybe I´ll go there tomorrow anyhow since I like the collection so much. Maybe I´ll see you there...

London

London was great! We found a lot of nice samples, got really inspired and now we have many new ideas for AW 2010. The Abercrombie & Fitch store was amazing! They really know how to display the clothes. As you can see on pictures below there were many checked flannel shirts and also t-shirts and sweaters with the A&F logo or something else that you associate with the brand and have a sporty touch. The garments are washed out to get that special worn out feeling.

Of course I did some shopping to myself too. I bought shoes, a clutch and a knitted vest as you can see on pictures below. I also bought a knitted sweater and cardigan that were very basic.

Chloé inspired boots

This vest over a jeans jacket is perfect to wear this Autumn.

Perfect clutch for a night out.

It´s years since I visited London but now I feel that I need to go there more continuously.

Fashion week continues...

I just saw pictures from Hervé Léger by Max Azria´s show with fabulous dresses that made me speechless. Here is my top five.

I like the colour of this dress and look at her nice boots!

That was it for today. Tomorrow I´m going to London for a couple of days to get some inspiration for AW 2010.
