Streetstyle: Stockholm

I am loving these two looks by two women from the stylish city of Stockholm, which I came across on my favourite streetsyle website Carolines Mode | StockholmStreetstyle. The first look is a perfectly put together outfit, the pairing of different prints, the burgundy fedora picking up the burgundy print in the trousers, the red lipstick picking up the bright red heel of her shoes and then the necklace with neon yellow stones throwing a twist upon the whole outfit. I just adore the entire look. Then the second look is my kind of outfit, all black with a pop of colour to create attention and I am pretty certain that is a ZARA coat, either way I have coat envy! Both outfits are very well put together but definitely not 'try-hard' (which sometimes happens when and outfit is well put together), but not these two ladies. Also one more note, it just so happens that upon closer inspection both ladies appear to be wearing the same necklace, SNAP!

I LOVE- KOTUR: Resort 2013 Clutches

I saw these gorgeous clutch bags from KOTUR available to order on Moda Operandi from the Resort 2013 collection and knew I had to share them with you all. I love ethnic/tribal/cultural prints as they are always a stand out statement, full of colour and character and always brighten up a plain outfit. So you can see why these clutches caught my eye with the beautiful mix of colours and eye popping prints. The clutches are featured in the trunkshow entitled 'A Master Mix: Culture Club', and this trunkshow ends Aug 31st at 11pm EDT, so still 36hrs or so to get on to Moda Operandi and order one of these beauties!
