Trashy chic

by Teresa 2. September 2010 16:20

Randomly browsing the net for inspiration and as always I get hung up on the Olsens. Noone does trashy chic as them! 

Sienna Miller does bright colour with Isabel Marant booties and animal prints. I'll be copying that outfit very soon...

The spirit and the food..

by Teresa 30. August 2010 15:55

Make the most of your Ramadan experience and make sure to enjoy the spirit and food to be found in the iftar and suhour tents at many of the city’s hotels.



One of the best evenings lately was the Iftar experience I shared with my BFF Charlie and a few other friends in good ol' Abu Dhabi. The highlight of the evening must have been the 55+ years old chef that fell head over heels for my stunning Charlie. The two enjoyed a very rewarding conversation held in Arabic (the chef) and Swedish (Charlie) over the different lamb dishes on the buffet. But it's one of those 'you had to be there' stories... Smile

Prancing pony

by Teresa 25. August 2010 14:46

One of the many perks of being a fashion blogger is getting all the press releases. I love parking myself on the sofa with a huge cuppa and studying all the latest look books cover to cover!

 



Love the press material from H&M that came in a beyond cute leather binder with a prancing pony, it's oh so girly...

Top 5 favourite xxxxxx

by Teresa 24. August 2010 14:42

Yesterday night after copious amounts of Turkish coffee and a go at some apple sheesha, I ended up twisting and turning in bed. As counting sheep didn’t help (it never does, what an urban legend that is..) neither did milk and cookies, I started to compile my 'top 5 favourite xxxxxx' lists.

First one is as follows: my top 5 favourite scents:

-  Coconut! Hence me being a sukka' for anything from Hawaiian Tropic...

-  Frangipani! That Maldivian flower has a divine smell and brings me back to a very special vacation at the Hudhuranfushi resort - oh the memories... That's another thing about scents - they stimulate your smell buds just as much as they send you back down memory lane...

Let me just say I love it so much that the lill’ white flower it's actually a part of one of my tattoos. Nuff' said.

-  The grapefruit scent from Jo Malone. If you haven't tried that already get your b**t down to MOE/ Doobs Mall STAT! If you're not a sweet flowery girlie scent kinda gal, this is just on the right side of fresh...

-  Clean bed linen that have been air dried in the sun. Preferably crispy and white...BLISS.

-  Cinnamon, whether it's Cinnabuns, freshly baked apple pie or gingerbread around Christmas time.

Rain dance

by Teresa 23. August 2010 11:11

I'd give anything to be THAT girl today. Is there anything better than warm summer rain?

Since moving to the UAE and it's desert climate I have developed a mild obsession with rain - the way it smells when it reaches dusty grounds, the sound of it against the window and the wonderfully good excuse it provides to stay indoors all day. 

(The Sartorialist is the photographer behind this fantastic photo btw.)

Now my dear peeps I've got a day full or errands ahead. If I manage to get halfway through my 'to do' list I'll reward myself with a glass of vino in front of the latest episode of Entourage..
