Lovisa Burfitt Illustrations

Today I dream about these fantastic fashion illustrations by Lovisa Burfitt.

Lovisa is a Sweden-based fashion designer and illustrator who lives and works in Provence, southern France. She graduated from the Beckmans School of Fashion Stockholm in 1997 and in 2001 she was invited as a guest student at the Royal College of Art in Stockholm.

Lovisa previously worked for clients such as: Sephora, Guerlain, Selfridges, H&M and Harrods. She has also illustrated many issues of Vogue, ELLE, Grazia and The Sunday Times. She mainly draws fashion as well as accessories, food, make-up, flowers, interiors and more.

The pictures were taken by Kristofer Johnsson for RUM21. They perfectly illustrate how much personality a great print can add to the whole interior. How do you like them?

Lauren Santo Domingo's Apatment

Today I dream about this stunning duplex in Paris which belongs to Lauren Santo Domingo.

Lauren Santo Domingo is the co-founder and creative director of the online retailer, Moda Operandi. She's also a contributing editor at Vogue. In the past, Lauren has worked as the PR director for Paris-based J. Mendel and also for the PR department of Carolina Herrera for the Puig Group. She's well known for her immaculate personal style... and her stunning apartments. 

Here you can see her one of a kind New York apartment and thanks to Vogue Spain we have a chance to take a peek inside the gorgeous interior of her Parisian duplex. 

Although this space isn't really my style it instantly charmed me with the luxury visible in every detail and in every room of the apartment. The interior was designed by the legendary decorator Francois Catroux who decided to keep the original 18th-century boiserie and plasterwork which certainly ads a glamorous factor to the whole space. 

Every single piece and detail is well thought out and together they create the perfect balance of luxury and comfort. How do you like it?

Nanushka Autumn/Winter 2013

Today I dream about the gorgeous Autumn/Winter 2013 collection by Nanushka.

Nanushka is a great Hungarian label created by Sandra Sandor in 2005. I was first introduced to Sandra's designs by this Fashionitka post in which she showed us Nanushka's spring collection. I instantly fell in love with the combination of elegance, femininity, comfort and effortless chic.

Sandra's urban designs are perfect for living in a big city. Thanks to the boho details and easy to wear silhouettes her collections remind me a bit of Isabel Marant's style.

My favourite part of the collection is definitely the coats and jackets. I love the neutral tones as well as the clever and eye-catching details. How do you like it?

I'm Hungary for more! :)

Apiece Apart Fall/Winter 2013 Collection

Today I dream about the wonderful Fall/Winter 2013 collection by Apiece Apart.

I have previously mentioned the brand founded by Laura Cramer and Starr Hout regarding their Spring/Summer 2013 collection so when I saw the new lookbook I couldn't help myself from presenting it to you once more.

The collection features all my favourite colours which bring autumn to mind - burgundy, navy, black, cream and mustard which to me will always be a 'pumpkin colour'. I love the oversized shapes, nonchalant silhouettes, hats and pointed flats combined with heavy coats.

This is how I imagine my dreamy looks for every autumn - effortless and chic, but then all the snow appears and I have to dig out the snow boots and the good, old down jacket and all the 'autumn charm' is suddenly gone...

Let's not get depressed by the weather just yet, next time I'll show you Apiece Apart's newest Spring/Summer 2014 collection which I'm sure you'll love as much as I do!

Apiece and love! :)

Ulla Johnson Spring 2014 Collection

Today I dream about the beautiful Spring 2014 collection by Ulla Johnson.

Born and raised in Manhattan, Ulla launched her label in 2000. Her signature style is inspired by the streets of New York and the raw energy of the metropolis. She is best known for her clean, feminine style, custom prints and intricate details. I am totally in love with the new collection!

Now that the Summer is over I'll be dreaming of these amazing pieces until next Summer. Having said that, I think that Ulla's new collection is very versatile - most of her pieces would work equally well in Autumn looks. Ulla has managed to combined all my favourite things when it comes to my Summer wardrobe - flowy, lightweight fabrics, colours, stripes, comfortable sandals, espadrilles and hats.

This Summer I rediscovered khaki again and now it's one of my favourite colours. I love the look with the creamy white shirt with back pleats combined with khaki trousers and bright pink sandals. How do you like it?

Each Other Fall/Winter 2013 Collection

Today I dream about the gorgeous Fall/Winter 2013 collection by Each Other.

Each Other is a new fashion brand focused on creating elements of enduring style rather than seasonal trends. The label's philosophy is all about timeless, ageless and genderless design.

All the pieces are made in Europe; the jackets and shirts are being made in Porto, Portugal, the leather and denim is made in Padova, Italy and the silk and outerwear is from Paris.

All the pieces created by Each Other are unisex with a masculine direction. At the moment, there are seven artists/designers designing for Each Other and each one of them has created a mini collection. When combined together they create a perfect mixture of minimalism and punk attitude.

The one which caught my eye the most is Naco's, the white stripy biker jacket he designed stole my heart!

The simple lookbook featuring Emilia Nawarecka reflects the brand's philosophy and is focused on the clothes not the settings, which after all is the most important thing!

Be excellent to Each Other! :)

Scotch & Soda Fall/Winter 2013 Collection

Today I dream about the fantastic and freshly revealed Fall/Winter 2013 collection by Scotch & Soda.

I always wait impatiently for Scotch & Soda's new collections and if you've been reading my blog for a while you must know that I'm a bit of a fanatic :)

The new collection doesn't disappoint - the campaign as well as the lookbook is great as usual. The campaign is based in the very diverse city of Amsterdam which expresses the vibe of the collection in a perfect way. The are four distinct themes in the new collection, the first part was inspired by travel to Morocco, the next one by scenes of the Orient and the last two by the street style of New York and Paris. 

In my opinion, the new collection is a perfect mixture of modern femininity and masculine, dandy chic. There are some timeless pieces like my beloved striped top or a perfect leather jacket and a seductive LBD. Then we have some oversized checked blazers, a funky multi-coloured faux fur coat and a masculine touch seen in the black leather Chelsea boots. It's a well balanced mix of part dandy and part romantic pieces.

I always like to watch the clothes in movement and if you would like to see a video of the new collection just click here!

The brand's denim line, Amsterdam Blauw is based on the icons of denim - the people that have inspired us for ages. You can expect a mixture of rock ‘n' roll rebels and a hint of 80's glamour, laser printed paisleys and ikats, as well as winter tie-dyes.
