Nothing says spring more than packing those tights away, no? If you have been following me a while you know I can´t resist a statement skirt, and this H&M broderie anglaise satin skirt was love at first sight. It´s a nod to the ultimate dream Prada embroidered duchesse maxi-skirt, and I love it paired with a gray fine knit cardigan that I like to wear back to front.
Except from the shoes, these are items that are not available anymore, however I have sourced some similar here:
Shoes from Aquazzura
Jacket from Sandro, similar here
Patent leather (faux) from Gina Tricot, similar here
Tuxedo shirt from Nili Lotan, similar here
Baby Cheeks Blush Stick from Westman Atelier
If your workwear is getting repetitive, an oversized cuff shirt, a maxi pencil skirt and leopard print accessories are easy ways to refresh your office style.
Shirt from H&M, long pencil skirt from & other Stories, clutch from Totême, shoes (as seen in my reel) are old but similar here, coat is from Totême but this is discontinued, similar coat by same brand here
It was love at first sight with this dress, these shoes and this coat. I love them dearly separately, and togehter as a perfect Valentine´s Day date night outfit. Now all I need is a date, haha..
Shoes from Aquazzura, dress from Stella McCartney, coat Isabella from Remain by Birger Christensen (in luxurious lamb shearling).

My moodboard isn't about finding a brand new style – I've spent years curating my wardrobe and investing in timeless classics that I can rewear season after season. It's more of a vision board that defines my style, the colour palette, the go-to looks that never fail. For me, the beauty is in the simplicity; it's effortless, classic and reflects my aesthetic. For me style goes further than just fashion, and plays into beauty too.

I love how the maxi satin skirt can so easily be dressed up or down. Like I have styled it here, perfect for a Christmas family get-togheter or not-too-formal party, with a bejewelled cardigan and high heels.
Or with a grey sweater and Adidas Sambas, or with a grey, chunky turtleneck and silver heels, options really are endless!

In the colder months, a great way to be warm and comfortable, but still put together, is to keep the base monochrome with a comfortable, neutral knitted dress. This is just the perfect dress, the cut, quality, length, everything! I tend to invest in knitwear because I get so much wear out of it – and I prefer shopping for cashmere and wool. Almada The Label just nails the quality, fabrication and fit.
This dress! It´s been around a while and has a permanent place in VB´s Iconics Capsule Collection. With a modest round neckline, short sleeves and a midi-length hem, this fitted t-shirt dress has an understated sophistication. Dart details create a defined waistline, while double-ended exposed metal zips to the back add a contemporary design feature. Style simply with strappy sandals for warmer days or high heeled, knee-high boots when it gets colder.
Oxholm in Oslo has a great selection of VB dresses! Shop this beauty here. For referance, I am wearing a size 38.
I have wanted to try the Skims Seamless Sculpt thong and Soft Lounge Long Slip Dress since I first saw it.
Does Skims work for us 40+? Oh yes! In love with the this super soft, drapey slip dress that offers a comfortable, body-hugging fit. It´s just as perfect for lounging around as for dressing it up like I have done here.
The high waisted thong provides all the support you need for a flat tummy and cinched waist without bulk or panty lines!

Burgundy is having a moment – and I´m all here for it. From cosy knitwear and longline wool coats to tailored power pieces, there’s something in burgundy for everyone this season… The coat I am wearing is literally my dream coat! I have wanted one since I saw Victoria Beckham wearing a burgundy coat on the cover of Vogue in 2016 (!). Thankfully, Cavour has created this exquisite coat in the perfet shade and lenght! Additionally, it´s in 100% wool - making it perfect for fall/ winter sofistication!
