Today I'm loving...

... this really cute Herve Leger bikini:


So simple, yet so distinctively Herve Leger and unique.

I can't believe I didn't even know there are Herve Leger bikinis out there until I saw this!

Today I'm loving...

... something I am sure annoys a lot of other people who are interested in fashion: Moschino's McDonald's tribute in their Fall 2014 show.
The reason I love it is simple: I love when fashion is both unexpected and fun, and who would have ever expected for McDonald's of all brands to be featured in a fashion show? I certainly would never have even thought of the idea, which is exactly why it is so brilliant!


I must admit I am not a huge McDonald's fan so I am actually not sure I would wear these pieces, at least not together like they are shown on the catwalk, myself. But I love the idea of these on a 20 year old who is just getting started with fashion and just has a lot of fun with it, or someone who generally takes a lot of fashion risks!

Today I'm loving...

... these gorgeous Missoni beachwear pieces, that all match:


Wouldn't it be great to get all of these (possible here, here and here), for a holiday? Too bad it would cost the equivalent of many people's entire clothing budget for a season... So I don't think it would be the most sensible purchase to make, but I still love the look!

One of my favorite collections for spring 2014...

... quite surprisingly, I might add, since I am normally not drawn to this brand, is Tory Burch's Spring 2014 looks. I love this top, for instance:

And I think it would look just perfect if matched with these pants, also from Tory Burch's Spring 2014 collection:

But bummer, I shouldn't be buying any of these pieces right now, since I will be heavily pregnant this summer. So I really should be looking at maternity clothes instead! But that's nowhere near as fun as looking at regular clothes, unfortunately. Most maternity clothes are rather boring and unflattering after all...
So if anyone reading this has any tips on where to get cute, fashionable and even flattering maternity clothes, I would love to hear them!

A trend I am so not sure of...

... is the high fashion sneakers, seen in both Chanel's Spring 2014 Couture show:





and the Dior Spring 2014 Couture show:


(the Chanel sneakers are by far nicer than the Dior ones if you ask me!)

You see, I have always believed that it is hard to be really fashionable in these types of shoes, and that they should be worn for sports - or possibly long walks at most! - only. I also believed most Parisians thought the same... So it's really kind of surprising to me that both Chanel and Dior seem to think that sneakers are fine for any type of occasion, and should be matched with high end clothing.

That said, of course any fashion that allows us to be more comfortable in our daily lives is a positive thing. So I do think a lot of people will like this trend, but I have to say I really don't like the look of these shoes, and would not be wearing them like they were worn in the shows. I think Converse are a much more chic option for a casual look instead, and for a fraction of the price of these shoes too!

Katy Perry and I like the same things!

Either that, or she reads my blog and got the idea for her gown for the Grammys here!
In all seriousness, I have to say she looks adorable in this dress, though! (It does look like she modified the dress, however. But she - or whoever did it! - did it well!)
And she was definitely one of the best dressed at the Emmys, if you ask me!

Today I'm loving...

... this Moschino bracelet, which matches a vintage Moschino bag I was lucky enough to find for a steal in a second hand shop once (I don't think I've ever mentioned that Moschino bag here on the blog, but I blogged about it over at my handbag blog once) perfectly. But of course it looks quite cool on it's own too!

I know a lot of people are into the belts that spell out Moschino in gold letters, but if you ask me, this is a more chic and original option for sure. So why not consider it instead of those belts that so many people seem to have?
