Are you guys as...

over the Lanvin thing as I am? To tell you the truth I was never really into it in the first place, since I didn't know a thing about Lanvin before H&M brought up the collaboration and then when the collection was unveiled I was not really in awe. Especially not with those prices!
Therefore it gives me great pleasure to find out that the master designer that is Karl Lagerfeld is going to design a collection for Macy's, which is to be sold in September 2011 in 250 stores and online... the sad thing is that Macy's doesn't ship outside the US. (Luckily some of us have connections overthere...)

When going on a...

blog round, I found these shoes at infashionwetrust.blogspot.com. They're Kate shoes from Nelly.com and they have them in black, brown and then this grey. If i buy them it'll be the grey, since I have the H&M version with a lil heel in brown and I have plenty of other shoes and boots in black. They are priced at 259DKK.


I also browsed through their shoe sale, and found these for 99DKK...





It would be a coup to buy 2 pair of shoes for under 400DKK. Still just considering since I'll be going to Copenhagen for s shoppingtrip in early December.

One piece of jewelry...

I love is rings.
At swirl.com they have taken about half off their prices, and although they're still a lil too pricey for my budget I'm considering wether the Boyfriend should stop by this site before buying my present.


...and I just discovered that they don't ship outside the US... bummer.

A long bikeride...

out into the suburbs resulted in these to for the Boyfriend.

He had to get some parts for one of the motorbikes, so we went on a 10km ride to get it (have no idea what the parts was - not good with remembering mc-related stuff...)

On our way home we went by Bilka ( the closest thing to Target in Denmark) and found these sweaters - 2 for 300 DKK.

I'm a big fan of the grandpa-look for guys and the Boyfriend is NOT, so this is the closest thing I'll get to it.

Throughout the years...

I've been a bit of an Award show addict. I've stayed up for most of the night to watch Mtv Music and Movie awardshows, even tried a couple of times to watch Golden Globes, Grammys and the Oscars, but they're usually a bit snoozy when you've been up all day.
Yesterday the American Music Awards was held, and sadly I couldn't find anywhere on tv or online that broadcasted it overhere, so I've been browsing Youtube.com to watch the performances, and here are my faves...



Christina Aguilera has the voice for the stage and when she's not trying to be too outlandish she's very succesful in her performances. This song is from her new movie with Cher 'Burlesque', and she's really bringing us back to her golden years of Lady Marmelade.



Bon Jovi is an old goodie in my book. Been a fan since elementary school, and was very pleased that he played a couple of his old hits.



Pink dancing around the stage in an outfit dedicated to her old self, with a soon-to-be mini-me in her belly is a joy for a fan like me to watch.



The final performance of the night was two of my all time favorite Boybands coming together to show us what we can expect from their upcoming tour together. NKOTBSB is their joint name, and if they can haul their behinds to Europe I'll be there screaming my behind off!!


This awardshow was by far the best of the year. I'm far more into old performers showing their skills than new wannabes trying too hard.
Ofcourse the show also had the Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift for the younger (or just younger-hearted) ones among us.

Not an interesting day...

but I did get a whole lot of relaxing done .
My outfit for today was a Minnie Mouse shirt from H&M, Cos leggings...


and a grey Vero Moda shirt and cheap blue wellies for taking the trash out and spraying the pavement with salt as it's been snowing a bit. Sadly it's not cold enough for it to stay, but it's better than nothing.


A closeup of the Cos Leggings - they have this weird synthetic fabric down the inner side, which is kinda noisy when you walk, but they'll keep you warm for sure!







Gwyneth Paltrow as an actress...

has never been my cup of tea, but she surprised me on Glee.
I've always viewed her as a prim and proper... and dull... person, so it was refreshing to see her hang a lil loose on Glee


And then I saw her performance on Country Music Awards 2010, where she sang one of the songs from her upcoming movie Country Strong.


This changed my opinion on her a whole lot - although she's still not too appealing to me.

Organisation is...

definitely key!
I've been trying for what feels like an eternity to find some basic boxes for our bookcase in the livingroom, but I always think they are too expensive.
Yesterday I found the almost perfect ones, which made this horrible and embarressing mess...


with only these 9 boxes...



look like this!
The reason I say that it is almost perfect is that I'm not too fond of the metal holes, but they're soooo much better than the clutter that was before!



Now I'm gonna watch the Danish edition of Dancing with the Stars followed by the Danish version of SNL... I know, not much on tv!!




Yesterday I had...

lunch with mom.
We ate at this little artgallery/café, where they have a new artist showing every month. Some are just housewives with too much time on their hands, but others are actual artists with brilliant ideas.
I had the fish plate (for the Danish readers: Stjerneskud) and a cranberry juice.
Ofcourse I didn't take a photo of the food, cause it is just too darn good to not be thrown down at once!


After lunch we browsed through a nearby florist to get some inspiration for our upcoming candle decorations for Christmas
I've been seeing a lot of white/silver decor, which is a welcomed direction away from all the almost neon colors I've seen so far.

I've had enough...

of waiting till my computer gets fixed. It is just too boring being a non-blogger, so I'm using the Boyfriend's computer. It's not that he hasn't made an effort in making mine work, he's actually been working 2-4 hours on it every other evening, but something just wont cooperate.
Here's what I wore today


T-shirt - Zara, Vest - Zara, Pants - H&M
The shoes are from H&M
