Silver brogues

//WEARING// YesStyle tee H&M black blazer and cuff Levi's jeans NEXT bag Primak silver brogues Swatch watch

I brought these amazing silver brogues about two years ago from Primak for a whooping 5 pounds, a real bargain!  To be honest, I never wear them that much but I never planned on throwing them away. I decided to pull them out of their box as I have been seeing silver brogues popping all around the place in the last couple of weeks. If you are looking for some silver brogues may I suggest, Asos, Topshop and Zara.

My new tweed jacket

Here is the outfit I wore Friday evening to the 'second hand, second life' fashion show (I will share the pictures this week as soon as I get the time to through them all). I wore my new tweed/utility jacket from Queen's wardrobe and my new levi's jeans. I have been on the hunt for the perfect 'boyfriend' jeans for as long as I can remember and there has always something I din't like about the jeans so I decided to go to Levi's thinking if I can't find the perfect pair here then I will give up my hunt. So I walk out with two pairs; this boyfriend/skinny cut for women I am wearing here and a good old pair of 501 for men which I can't wait to use and abuse of them so they get that nice used feel to them.

I have had a lot of questions regarding Queen's wardrobe which has made quite a name for itself amongst bloggers in the last year or so. It is one of those websites that has embraced the era and the power of the bloggers to its full potential which I think was a great move. All i can say is that this was my first buy and the service was great, delivery super fast, and if you have any questions just email them or twitter them, there will always be someone there ready to answer all your queries. Quality wise it is not bad at all, and it was exactly as described on the website so no surprises there, same goes for the sizes. A couple of extra buttons would have been nice, then again that is maybe just because I am the queen of loosing them. Hope this helps and convinces you to give them a try.

White jeans

So here is one trend that I will more often than not associate to bad things, very bad and tacky things. However, this being said, it is also one of those trends that when pulled off to perfection can look so damn right. And if I am completely honest with all of you, I get very envious of people when them pull of the white jeans look, because it ends up looking so clean and modern and well put together.

I hope everyone had a great weekend (and that all my American readers had a fantastic 4th July). Mine was spent collection the new car as a drunk driver completely destroyed my old one, hopefully no one was in the car that much I can be grateful for. It was also spent visiting the gorgeous city of Bruges (in Belgium). As I have been accepted to study at the College of Europe, I will be spending all of next year doing a masters in diplomacy and European external relations which is my other passion. However, I ended up spending most of my time sweet shop hopping (which seems to have become my new own personal sport) instead of really visiting the city. I will share the pictures with you tomorrow.

An Hommage to Levi's

Sources: StylebyKling

The Levi’s 603 Superskinny fit (“Let Rip”), seen here on Erin Kling. She and she alone, has brought these perfect superskinny Levi’s to the top of my “buy me” list. They just look perfect with a pair of black heels, dressed up or dressed down.

Vintage Levi’s.

The original 501 Levi’s with a modern twist. A limited edition designed over the summer by Elin Kling. When it comes to style, Elin sure knows a thing or two (or three). I looked desperately on ebay to see if anyone was selling them but NO luck there :( Is there really a limit on how many pairs of jeans a girl can own, because i easily see myself in these too.

Did any of you get their hands on these beauties?

DIY ripped shorts. Levi’s has more often than not been used to create the perfect ripped denim shorts. I like if when this raw fabric is paired with soft cotton T’s and black lace.

Have any of you done something different with your Levi’s?
