Top your look with a pop of color!

There’s nothing like a pop of color to finish off a look, and bright lights against tanned skin is such a win (rhyme unintentional). I’m currently obsessing over the Marc by Marc Jacobs over the shoulder number above. Oh, if only I had a magical wardrobe that made pretty new things appear every time I open it. Am I the only one that secretly imagines what it would be like to wake up to a wardrobe containing one of every item at say, net-a-porter.com?

Items in photo above: Zara shoes, Forever 21 ring, Zara necklace, Urban Outfitters sunglasses, Missguided necklace, Sophie by Sophie bangle, Illamasqua nail polish, Marc by Marc Jacobs bag, Forever 21 bracelet.

Utensils and jewelry

The snowstorm is still going strong, so I’m stuck inside studying, catching up on my google reader and window shopping the web. Love the above items, all from LEIF.

Shoes!

I can obsess about running and training shoes as much as a pair of Jeffrey Campbells.

These are like pieces of candy and I want every one of them! I’ve been obsessing over the Nike free Run+ 2 and the Nike Free 3.0 V3 for a long time, but I love the Nike Wmns Free Trainer Fit 2 also… and the new Nike Lunareclipse +2 are such a fun and bold color.

What training shoes do you have? Which of the above would you like?

Add it to the wish list: Clare Vivier

I love these Clare Vivier clutches, they come in a wide range of colors and are available in four sizes. They’re priced at $156

For the home

The Hummingbird Bakery Cake Days (amazon.com), Toaster (Dualit), Water kettle (Dualit), Tropic vase, design by Göran Wärff (Kosta Boda), Saijo Persimmon candle (Voluspa), Jars for storing oatmeal, dried fruit, pasta and nuts (Lagerhaus), Tumbler glasses (Lagerhaus), Hand mixer (Dualit).

Spring colors from Essie

My nails are a mess this time of year. They’re dry, brittle, crack and split. Today I got some strengthening/hardening nail polish that I’m going to try for the next couple of weeks to see if the quality of my nails improve at all. Hopefully by the time Spring rolls around they’ll be in good enough shape to show off with some pretty polish.

Here’s the latest collection from Essie. Their spring colors are fresh, fun and pastel-y (which we all know goes great with tanned skin). I’d like to try “to buy or not to buy” and “a crewed interest”.

What’s your favorite spring nail color?

Sweat it out

Judging by the amount of posts on here the past week, you wouldn’t have guessed that I’ve spent the week drowned in notes, cramming for my exam that I had this morning (here’s a little secret: most of the posts were scheduled).

Studying around the clock has unfortunately meant less time spent at the gym, and I’m feeling irritable because of it. I snuck off to the gym a couple of times the past week but not nearly as many as usual and not enough to fill my cravings for a good work out. The fact that I have the weekend off (and don’t have to study!) feels awesome. Guess what I’ll be doing?

Wish I had this running outfit to wear tomorrow: Shoes/Nike Free Run+ 2W, T-shirt/Reebok, Sweater/Nike W Epic Crew, Gloves/Nike lightweight, Tights/Nike Swift Power, Jacket/Reebok, Bag/Nike Varsity Girl 2.0 Duffel

Acne want

If I wasn’t a student living on a tight budget I’d love to fill my wardrobe with these items from Acne. That bag is screaming my name, it’s perfect for carrying around my school books and laptop.

Treasures

Frankie Diary, Anthropologie Owl cookie jar, Starbucks logo mug, Anthropologie cushion, MCQ Alexander McQueen shoes.

Pretty treasures. I love Anthropologie and could shop that whole store. I saw the above black Starbucks mug at Arlanda airport in Stockholm when I flew to Spain, I really regret that I didn’t get it.

Study outfit

Bag, top, blazer, shoes and earrings from Zara. Jeans and ring from Monki. Notebook and pen from MUJI.
