My weekend so far

I still have a bit of a cold, but I still managed to get out a bit today, and that was just lovely. This day really made me appreciate where I live, since the weather is definitely nicer here than in a lot of other places in the world at the moment (and so are the views!). This is what I saw on my day out and about today:

Lovely, isn't it? Let's hope the rest of the weekend will be as lovely, for both me and all my readers. Happy weekend!

Another gown I really like

Is this Valentino one, from the Valentino Spring 2014 Couture collection. I love the musical whimsy, coming from a family of musicians, even though I am not one myself.

I must admit, however, that the rest of the Valentino Spring 2014 Couture collection was not really to my liking. It was just really dark and stuffy for me, which was surprising, since I normally adore everything Valentino. But that collection did not feel very Valentino to me at all. So this gown was actually the only piece in the collection I liked!

Today I'm loving...

... the gowns shown in Elie Saab's Spring 2014 Couture show yesterday. Nobody does gowns fit for a princess, queen or Hollywood star better than him if you ask me!

Looking at these photos surely makes me wish I had a much more glamorous lifestyle that called for gowns like this. But sadly, I am home sick with a cold instead, wearing a pink Adidas sweatsuit... Not very glamorous at all!

Today I'm loving...

Ulyana Sergeenko's Spring 2014 Couture collection, or at least parts of it. I have to say that the collection is very typical Ulyana, which I personally love, because I feel her style is so unique compared to most other things we see, but it also means some pieces of the collection were a bit too over the top. But the pieces that were a bit more toned down were just amazing, so luxurious, but also draped so beautifully, and so wearable, I think. There are some of my favorites:

Today I'm loving...

... 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!

Today I'm loving...

... the food themed iPhone 5 cases ASOS just got in.

I don't know why, but these really make me smile for some reason, so I would love to carry them around and hopefully make others smile too. But unfortunately I do not have an iPhone 5 myself, as I am more of a Samsung Galaxy girl, so I won't be getting these, unless ASOS comes up with a Samsung Galaxy version of them!

Today I'm loving...

... Mulberry's absolutely adorable Spring 2014 campaign, featuring a bunch of adorable animals!

As a huge animal lover myself, I always love seeing animals in unexpected places, and I do think they are more photogenic than people too (no offense, Cara Delevigne!), so Mulberry's campaign turned out really nice, if you ask me!
