also hi to all of you new visitors that found their way to 5 inch and up via the feature on Le fashion.. author Jenn also writes Olsens anonymous, Le love, Le smoking and ...etc. How she manages all of these we don't know, but what we do know that all her blogs are so very le inspiring. Thank you

In the middle of a busy week, I wanted to show you my snake ring that I ebayed a while ago. Featuring my favorite flowers.. it's almost a bit sad that they look even more beautiful dead....

A whole lot of roses

Over the weekend I really missed Finland where everyone was celebrating the 1st of may and overdosed on champagne. Back in london the monday bank holiday was mostly a setback weather wise with sunday store opening hours.. I tried my best to cheer it up with some new summer clothing.. well it worked, especially with these shorts that are pretty much the definition of underwear as outerwear.

I did not notice until I was writing this, that I wore all topshop... uups. Check my new cool waistcoat that serves its purpose as a jacket or top, up to you.. but I need to talk about this clutch. Black slouchy leather with hidden studs.. I am totally turned on.. looks a lot like the Jas MB clutch that I was about a day away from buying... so to quote my friend: I MADE money with buying this. But more good news, I have a few extra that I am selling in shop 5 inch and up, so if you share my arousement, get yours here.

My miu miu

miu miu shoes

After loosing sleep at night trying to decide what pair of shoes from the miu miu spring collection would make it in to my closet, I think I finally found peace. I was aiming for the ankle boot version but as it sadly never made it in to production, I made my first rational shoe decision. Instead of the satin printed ones I went for black and worn with socks like this I would say: miu miu effect achieved.

Now you can buy the socks in my store!

zara boots

Took the train out from the city last weekend and spent a few amazing hours laying in the grass trying to concentrate on drawing instead of falling asleep..  sorry for the not-so interesting ensemble, I just wanted to wear my new bumbag.. which turned out to be very helpful in the case of these ashish for topshop shorts that are quite cool but oh so overly oversized from every angle.

Cut me out

Really quite hard to advise you on the stuff I am wearing here.. the cut-out knit was something a very nice lady back in Finland sold to me.. bought it a few years back from an interior design exhibition.. where I did not go to buy clothes, but you know, often you find the best stuff in the most random places.. I love that it's made of felt and even if I take it with me everywhere, I hardly ever end up wearing it. I'm confused.. what is it? a knit, a jacket, or maybe a poncho? I would say just a throw-on. A throw-on that I promise I'll wear more from now on.
