French Lesson
Do you remember the 'seven days a week' panties that were popular in the 80's? I never got any, even though I wanted them so bad. Now I have found a worthy replacement in this French Lesson Panty Set from Kiki De Montparnasse. The price is $295 for a set of 5 and $65 each.
In God We Trust, In Change We Believe
Graphic designer Richard Smith thinks designers can help kick-start the US economy with what he calls 'The Dollar ReDesign Project'.
"It seems so obvious to us that the ‘only’ realistic way for a swift economic recovery is through a thorough, in-depth, rebranding scheme – starting with the redesign of the iconic US Dollar – it’s the ‘only’ pragmatic way to add some realistic stimulation into our lives! Therefore, you must take part and we really want to see what YOU would do."
Richard has launched the project and has asked others to contribute their own ideas to his blog.

Raincloud Necklace
I really like this Raincloud stainless steel necklace by Corky. It reminds me of a Kalevala (Finnish and Karelian folklore) necklace my mother used to wear alot when I was younger.

Cornelis Vreeswijk Lyrics
Veronica, Veronica var är din blåa hatt?
Din älskling letar efter den, allt i den mörka natt
Din älskling är försvunnen, han kommer ej igen
När det dagas
Veronica, Veronica slå upp din parasoll
Din vän har gått ifrån dig, men spelar det nån roll?
Det finns så många andra, du hittar säkert en
När det dagas
Veronica, Veronica ditt ena strumpeband
Har stulits utav någon, som saknar dig ibland
På natten är han borta, men minns du honom än
När det dagas?
Men tycker du Veronica att morgonen är grå
Och ångrar att du någonsin lät honom gå
Spring bort till telefonen och ring till din vän
När det dagas
Veronica Veronica släpp ner ditt långa hår
Och se din vän i ögonen och säg att han får
Och somna i hans armar och vakna lycklig sen
När det dagas
Dracula Has Risen From The Grave (1968)
What I try to tell you, with this LOVELY movieposter, is that I'm not dead. I just wonder what happened to all the years inbetween 22 and now? I'm turning 30 today. Oh well, I guess I'm back on track next week.

Colour Your Eyes
I wanna put some colour on my eyes this summer.
I definitely have my favorite brand for eye shadows, and that is MAC. Their shadows are highly pigmentated, applies very evenly and blends amazingly well, even if you don´t have the best brushes. You can get them in all the shades and textures you dream of. At some places you can buy them in a refill pan that fits in the MAC pro palette. I know that's possible at the MAC store in Magasin, Copenhagen, but not at the one in Malmö.

Balmain T-Straps
I wasn't a big fan of the (in my opinion) overhyped Balmain's studded crystal sandals, but I really like these T-Strap Gladiators. Spotted at Jak & Jil blog.
Limited edition Coca Cola cans
Coca-Cola has introduced 5 limited edition can designs for the summer.
I like the grill and the sunglasses where they play with the logotype... I think the rest is a bit boring.

Today's Wishes
Today it's so grey outside. Stormy and rainy... I would like to cheer myself up with the YSL Cage Clutch, a sleeveless sweatshirt cape from Zucca, a mini skirt from Alexander Wang and some high heels from Martin Margiela.
Rien à Cacher
I know this is an oldie, but I love these pictures from the editorial Rien à Cacher. Absolutely not suitable for fans of 'less is more'. Fantastic styling! Over-accessorizing at it's best.

Camp Nou is to be remodelled
Camp Nou Stadium for FC Barcelona
Barcelona, Spain, 2007-2011
FC Barcelona’s Camp Nou Stadium, one of the world’s greatest football venues, is to be extensively remodelled. The stadium, already the largest in Europe, will be enlarged to accommodate over 106,000 fans (8000 more than now), together with extensive new facilities including hospitality and public areas.
The stadium will be enclosed by a brightly coloured mosaic outer skin that wraps around the building and continues over a new roof. The multi-coloured enclosure comprises overlapping translucent tiles in the club colours.
