... this cute patterned Anna Sui wool blend cape.

Not only because it looks adorable, but also because it is insanely cold where I am right now, and nothing seems to keep me warm, no matter how many pieces of clothing I wear. This seems like a cape that would be very warm though. Plus, capes are made so you can comfortably wear other garments (even a lot of them, if you want!) under them, haha!

... several of the individual pieces in the Spring 2013 Anna Sui collection, even though I am not too crazy about the styling. I simply think that Anna Sui's very detailed pieces would look better if the rest of the outfit and styling were kept more simple. But the individual pieces, the details and the fabrics are amazing!

Here are some examples:

The fabric on the dress is gorgeous, and I love the shape, even though I would probably wear it as a tunic, with very slim pants, and not as a dress.

This dress would look absolutely adorable if you accessorized it in a more color coordinated way, I think!

This dress is adorable too, and I quite like the jacket too, even though I don't think they go that well together.

Another adorable dress!

And this leather jacket is just perfect! A great combination of edgy, girly and sweet!

The perfect place to buy gifts online

When I used to live close to an Urban Outfitters store (I don't anymore, I am afraid), I must admit I bought quite a few things there, so I was thrilled to discover that Urban Outfitters actually have an online store that delivers worldwide recently, since it meant I got get back to checking out their absolutely charming selection on a regular basis, and actually get the things I liked again.

So when it was time for me to start looking for some presents for some upcoming birthdays, I of course decided to check their present section out. And I must say Urban Outfitters is absolutely great for this!

I won't reveal what I actually ended up getting, since at least one of the people I bought stuff for knows about this blog, so it might ruin the surprise for her, but some of the great presents you can get for someone over there include:

Anna Sui's absolutely gorgeous beauty accessories, like this brush stand

or why not a oil control paper box, filled with blotting papers?

A very chic door mat for any Francophile you may know.

and a very adorable cut lace vanity tray. (I actually want this really badly myself!)

So if you are looking for affordable, yet unique presents for someone, definitely check the Urban Outfitters online store out! It definitely helped me get all the presents I needed really fast!

Anna Sui's Resort 2011 collection.

It's full of girly, beautiful dresses, so even though I am always kind of undecided about Anna (sometimes she does the most awesome things, and sometimes her pieces are a bit dissapointing), I have to say that I am a huge fan of this collection!
