From the long way that I've come

FLORAL DRESS* - Wholesale7
HAT - H&M
PLATFORM SHOES - Jeffrey Campbell Muster via Second hand
LEATHER JACKET - Second hand

Who doesn't love to mix romantic with tough eh? I like the sweet with some bitter, like good chocolate. So I think a floral chiffon dress looks best with a studded belt and a leather jacket! And I got to style my new (old) Jeffrey Campbells. They are crazy. I love them. I'm almost 2 meters in them yay!

I'm very fond of this new dress, because it's has no zippers/buttons, my favourite kind of dress! I want to be able to move around and be comfortable, and the lack of zippers and such make it so. It's fully lined too, which is great, so it's silky smooth on the inside :)

PURPLE TARTAN SKIRT - Beyond Retro Sweden

VELVET PLATFORMS - Dr Martens via second hand

This little powder pink t-shirt top was a last-minute thing, like I'll through that one in too, and I'm so glad I did! It's very flattering on me I think, both colour and fit, and it's very comfortable. I can see myself wearing this with a lot of high waist things.

And how happy was I when I found these unused Dr Martens Agyness Deyn at a vintage market for 200SEK ($24)? They are so comfortable and heavy, just how I like 'em. I got another pair of shoes from the same girl, a pair of Jeffrey Campbell Munster, also for 200SEK, which normally is too much for this thrifting babe, but I couldn't resist.

GREEN BEANIE - Thinsulate via Second hand

Even though it looks gray, this was a fantastic day! Me and my babes went to our favourite lake and had a pick-nick, and later the sun came out and it was actually really warm! Good times good times.

I'm careful with ordering shoes form wholesale sites and e-bay, specially platform ones, because they tend to be very light (hard to walk in for me) and quite uncomfortable, so I was a bit worried that these would be like my previous experiences. But no! These are actually comfy! The have sort of a "pillow" for the foot, and the sole is (still light, but) sturdier than I expected. I'm very happy with these shoes and I think they'll go with just about anything in my wardrobe right now ^^ Very happy with them!

These jeans were (suuuurprise) a bit short. Maybe not in length, because I feel that they are supposed to be like that, but the rips should probably be on the knees, but they are above my knees. But that is easily fixed, I'll just make some more rips :D

BLACK NEO BOOTS - UNIF
HAT - H&M

I'm a sucker for 70's fashion in general, and these balloon sleeves from Wholesale7 are perfect for layering under a dress like this to get that lil 70's touch. Pop a big hat on top of it and voilá! Yes, I felt pretty in this, and maybe you can tell I long for summer, because this outfit does _not_ work in the weather we have here right now :( The sleeves have sort of sleeves inside them, so you have one sleeve against your arm, and I guess it is for the balloon part to be... um.. balloon-y? :D It's nice!

Best intentions

DENIM JACKET* - Wholesale7
LIPSTICK* - Dresslink
FLORAL DRESS - Forever21
BOOTS - Dr. Martens
BIG SMILEY PIN - Second hand
SMALL SMILEY PIN - Bruised Tongue

I'm still having a hard time in my private life, but I know I've made the right decisions and in the end things will be all right :)

Sooooo what am I wearing? I have a denim jacket already, but it's really over size and a bit darker. I've been looking for a shorter and model and lighter colour, and since I've come over my fear of distressed denim (last summer.. :P) in general, I felt this would fill this hole in my wardrobe. It's obviously too cold to wear as a jacket right now though, but today I wore it with a leather jacket over. I think I'll distress it even more, which I think will be easy since the fabric is quite thin. Funny thing with this jacket though: the buttons are very noisy :P And the button holes are not actual holes :P I'm going to cut mine up so I can button it, and I doubt it will be any trouble.

I don't know if you can see the pin from Bruised Tongue, with the venn diagram happy/sad smiley, but it's there and I totally love it. It gives me life. The design is so genius and I want to wear it all the time but also have it on display in my home! yummm

SAD SMILEY PIN -  Second hand

Obviously going for something grunge here, and wearing my favourite t-shirt with legend Astrid Lindgren on it. I would usually never wear a top with a face on it, I've never liked that, (depends on the picture ofc, but photo(ish) faces are a big no-no for some reason), but when I saw this T-shirt at T-shirt Store I knew I had to have it. It's super soft and I wear it a lot at work (best book store t-shirt yes?). I love it so much ^^

And yesterday I wore almost the exact same thing, but with a red flannel shirt instead of the green/blue jacket. Which one do you prefer?

New theories

GRAY OVERALL PANTS* - Wholesale7
NECKLACE - Cheap Monday
BLACK SHIRT - Second hand
BOOTS - Second hand

I was very happy to receive these overall pants, because they were a thicker material and more "luxurious" than I thought they would be. I got them in size L since I'm quite tall and these models (jumpsuits etc) tend to be too small between the crotch and shoulders. There is some camel-toe-warning haha but I don't really care. If I was one cm shorter they would have been even better, but I'll keep my length thank you. And I guess I thought they would be a bit more loose, but it's totally fine :)
I really like the model! They feel a bit more office-y than what I usually wear, (I need more stuff like that) but it's still quite fun, right? And it's easy to vary with different tops under. I would love to have something over-size underneath too! How would you style it?
