My Latest Vingtage Love...

...i realize that its a little risky to post something i really, really like, love and want, as there is a chance that any one of you loves it as much as me and is willing to outbit me, but im taking my chances! :) ...cause i had to SHARE this PERFECT, WHITE, STUDDED, 40-INSPIRED VINTAGE MAXI-DRESS! It's on the top of my wishlist right now, will be so perfect on me, and all the stories i already have in my head about the elegant, edgy young american woman I imagine wore it... the kind of woman who smoked long cigarettes, loved dancing, was a real flirt with a bad mouth but truely mesmorizing eyes, - the kind of woman the guys loved and the girls envied... she was wearing this dress to a high society party in a jazz club way back then in the 40's, her dark brown hair was waving around her shoulders, her laugh filling the room like the scent of her perfume, drawing everyone towards her...
You see???? I HAVE to have it:) Bitting on e-bay ends wednesday, have to keep cool until then, but don't you agree: this dress is IMPECABLE! Love /L

How To Rock A Maxi Dress

Nicole Richie, Mischa Barton, Ashley Olsen wears them. The maxi dresses. For everyday. They make them look casual, and now it's our turn! I have long been looking for just the right winter maxi, one with long sleeves, preferably black (bold choice of dress + safe colour = makes u feel confident and comfortable!). Anyway, I found this very pretty version at frenchconnection.com, which is currently on sale!! Love the shoulder detail, and love, love, love the fact that it can so easily be dressed up/down. For a great every day look I'd wear it with ballerinas, a big scarf, a cool men's watch, a few bangles, a couple of simple hoop earrings and of course my big favourite bag. For a dinner date on the other hand I'd dress it up with stilettos, an oversize ring, a long thin necklace and some long earrings + a cute clutch. See, endless possibilities with just one dress!
