The LONGEST pink catwalk!

¨
As mentioned earlier, Denmark was preparing for its Copenhagen Fashion Week by looking to break the current world record for the longest catwalk ever. This past Saturday we did it with their mile-long and very PINK catwalk.


With over 200 models, the fashionistas in Copenhagen broke the world record! The event was hosted by  model Helena Christensen and despite the rainy day, the catwalk was not put on hold.
To make everything even better, the event went to benefit the Children of Chernobyl!
Very very Nice!

I like this!!

Just fell over this top on a new Danish web shop – and I really really like the top – and the way it tributes Alexander McQueen!! A nice way for the not so rich of us to get our hands in some “McQueenísh” stuff…!


Think I am going to order one soon!! (Don’t really have the money to do it now…! And yes, I am aware that we are only half way through the month!!)
I found it on this site: http://oxideret.dk/

The top is made by “A question of”
It costs 300 kr. which is app. 40 Euros plus shipment.

Shopping in Denmark

I am on holidays in Denmark during this week, travelling around the country visiting family and friends.
All though this keeps me quite busy, I also have had the to do some shopping and I have made some pretty good bargains so far as there is still sales going on in Denmark.


Practical rain shoes from Føtex (Danish supermarket), price: 75kr. (10 euros).


Dress (in the color nude) from H&M, reduced from 250 kr. to 50 kr. (33 euros to 6,5 euros).


Sandals with leopard print from H&M; 100 kr. (13 euros).


Dress from Monki (the shop in Aalborg), reduced from 280 kr. to 50 kr. (37 euros to 6,5 euros).


Short suede jacket (genuine!) from Monki (the shop in Aalborg) - super bargain; was reduced from 700 kr. to 80 kr. (93 euros to 10,50 euros).


All asses were not created equal


Levi's is launching a new line where they are embracing customer's curves in a new line of jeans that fit different body shapes!!
Because as they say:

"all asses were not created equal"

The new line called Curve ID features three different jeans:
Slight,
Demi,
and Bold.
Each style comes in a different rise and with different pocket placement.

Not a bad idea at all - more labels should embrace curves if you ask me!!

Mango outlet - and the sales continues

My co-writer put me on a mission the other day: finding her a new and cheap blazer (as she lost the one she had).

We are at the end of the sales season, so there are really not a lot left in the shops (and what's left has not been bought for a reason..).

Nevertheless, I went by Mango outlet, where they still have a lot of stuff: outlet from previous seasons, now even more reduced as well as "taras" - clothes with some kind of defect.
I found this blazer among the "taras" which I think is from the new season. It was reduced from 50€ to 15€ and the only thing I could see that was wrong with is was that is was missing a button (which is quickly fixed).


While I was there, I acciendtly stumbled over this dress that I have had an eye on when it first hit the shops. It's a dress made out of silk in the colour nude. It was a bit wrinkley when I found it, but after a bit of ironing I think it will be okay. It is not a dress I will be using many times anyways.
The before price for the dress was 70€, now it was reduced to 6€.

This will be their first shop in Spain and the rumours has it that they are also searching for spaces in Madrid.

Another American shop that also recently has signed a lease in the shopping centre Maquinista is Abercrombie & Fitch. They will be opening their sister shop Hollister in a 500 square meter shop space.

Must have: Maxi Dress!!


One of this summers absolute MUST haves is the very comfortable and boehme chick maxi dress!!

They are everywhere – and luckily they come in all price ranges!!

Personally I love the long summer dresses – and they can be used both for everyday use but also for evening use with the right accessories!!

I have bought my own in H&M where they (as always) have a lot of different styles and patterns to choose from!

I have found some examples of cool maxis I have found on the net – a good tip is to buy one with long sleeves as the trend seems to continue into autumn…
