Katie Rogers' Fashion Illustrations

Today I dream about Katie Rogers' magical fashion illustrations.

Katie is the girl behind the beautiful blog PaperFashion which she started in 2009. Katie turned her hobby into a very successful business and it has really paid off. The list of her clients include Coach, Kate Spade, Shiseido and many, many more.

When I first saw her glittering fashion watercolours I instantly fell in love. She carefully choses a fashion illustration and then transforms it into watercolours, adds sequins, glitter, beads and Swarovski crystals which makes the paintings really come alive.

The thing I love the most about Katie's art is how she shows femininity and old style glamorous beauty which is a rare find nowadays.

You can buy her art prints and paintings here for a very reasonable price. Make sure to also check out Katie's Facebook page and Pinterest profile for many, many inspirations!

Palmer//Harding Autumn/Winter 2013 Collection

Today I dream about the super sleek Autumn/Winter 2013 collection by Palmer//Harding.

The label which was launched in 2011 by the London based duo of Levi Palmer and Matthew Harding first started of with a modest shirt line. As simple as it might sound, finding the perfect shirt might be really tricky. I'm still searching for my perfect shirt that would look equally good in daytime looks as it would in the evening depending on the accessories.

This season Palmer//Harding have expanded their line into skirts and jackets, but the shirt remains the creative duo's main interest. Although the collection looks really sleek and simple with a very basic colour palette, it's all about the details here. Pleats, great quality fabrics and interesting cuts make every piece of the collection truly unique.

What I love the most about this collection is how feminine and effortlessly chic it is.

What about you, did you find your perfect shirt?

Mellow Apartment in Denmark

Today I dream about this tranquil apartment located near Copenhagen, Denmark.

What I love the most about this interior are the muted colours - the whole space is filled with greyish, mink and taupe tones. It makes the interior look kind of melancholic and wintery but also very calm and relaxing.

All the rugs, warm throws and cushions add cosiness to the interior just like the artwork and bookshelves add personality.

The apartment is a perfect example on how to mix colours and textures in perfect balance.

How do you like it?

Scotch & Soda Spring/Summer 2013 Campaign

Today I dream about the amazing Spring/Summer 2013 collection by Scotch & Soda.

After the beautiful Fall/Winter 2012 campaign which was one of my favourites for the winter season, I couldn't wait to see the new campaign. My expectations were really, really high and I'm so happy that Scotch & Soda didn't disappoint - the new collection is just fantastic!

The main line - Maison Scotch - is a colourful mix of classic Parisienne pieces with Native American and oriental African vibes. It's divided into three smaller lines: Neon Surf, Praire and Tribal Africa. The whole collection is very laid-back and bohemian. There's a lot of embroidery, luminous colours, rich fabrics, fringes, prints and patterns. You can easily see the reflection of the newest trends here. Looking at Isabel Marant's or even high street H&M's new collections, I see that this summer will be about boho mixed with oriental inspirations which remind me of the Marrakesh street markets.

The brand's denim line - Amsterdams Blauw - is full of bright colour pops and tie-dye effects. It's really cool, relaxed and effortless. The combination of indigo denim and my beloved stripes seems just perfect for the summer and I can't wait to wear it!

Now have a look at both campaign and my favourite looks from the lookbooks!

Filippa K Spring/Summer 2013 Collection

Today I dream about the beautiful Spring/Summer 2013 campaign by Filippa K.

The campaign was shot by one of my favourite photographers, Lachlan Bailey and it features the lovely Julia Stegner and my favourite male model, Clement Chabernaud.

Filippa K is a Scandinavian brand founded by Filippa Knutsson and Patrik Kihlborg in 1993. The label quickly gained a lot of loyal fans thanks to the wearability and versality of the pieces they create. The brand philosophy is all about style, simplicity and quality, they create uncomplicated yet modern clothes to suit every occasion.

That is reflected in the new campaign, sleek and simple pieces, totally effortless and super stylish at the same time!

I'm already in love with the khaki bomber jacket and the relaxed fit silk shirt, which piece is your favourite?
