Black, military green and tiger!

Dear readers,

You know how I love to mix & match. This time I chose to create an outfit which includes three of my favourite colours/prints/materials: military green, black, leather, wool and of course the famous tiger print! What do you think?






I like its rough edge!

Love, Melissa

P.S. You can find all items on my Fashiolista page! Oh and those boots from H&M...I HAVE THEM!!! They are GREAT and really easy to wear with all sorts of outfits!

Memory vs. imagination!

Dear readers,

Although I think it is great to have good memories and dwell on them from now and then, I also think it is really important to not just live out of memories, but to create new ones! Fantasize, think of all the things you would want in your life and act on that...I can guarantee you there will be so many more memories you will create then! Did you know the creation of art is much more limited than what life is able to create?! For example, people think a "happily ever after" only exists in movies, not in real life. But think about this for a moment, REALLY think about it! STOP! Think again! The script writer is like ourselves a human being and even though he might be more capable of fantasizing away than the average person, his fantasy is also limited, as where life and all its creations is NOT! Choose to fantasize!

"If we live out of our memory, we're tied to the past and to that which is finite. When we live out of our imagination, we're tied to that which is infinite."

So cute...

Dear readers,

Last week I saw the 3D movie "Puss in boots" and I LOVED it!!! So cute and I cannot get over the voice of Puss himself :) Thanks Antonio Banderas for making Puss cute and sexy at the same time haha! For me 3D really works for animation pictures, it is just that little extra oomph that it deserves!

So take a break and go watch this feel good movie! For now a preview:

Let me know what you think of this movie!

Love, Melissa

December Top Finds @ Fashiolista

Dear readers,

Whoops, I totally forgot my monthly tradition, but here it is! Last months favourite items chosen by Fashiolista members are the following:

Purple suede bag (trendme.net)

Sequin dress (topshop.com) -- I am sure this pick has something to do with the holiday season :)

Knitted sweater (lagarconne.com)

So, which of the above is your favourite? I can't choose between the sweater and the bag, I like them both! :)

Love, Melissa

New Years Eve!

Dear readers,

As promised, here some photos of my New Years Eve and the outfit I decided to wear for the BIG night :) Btw, I don't have any pictures of the shoes I was wearing before putting on the flats you see in the picture. The "before" shoes were so pretty, but so not wearable for a long night filled with dancing hehe :P Oh, and those pink headbands were just a touch of fun. It is actually a bow, but for some reason they look like bunny-ears haha!

I have such a great group of friends, they are so dear to my heart! Unfortunately not everyone could join us for the night, but it was nevertheless an amazing and unforgettable night and a REALLY good start for 2012!

What did you guys do?

Love, Melissa

Pastel and sequins

Dear readers,

Some shots of new stuff that I bought recently.

Pastel blue sweater by Oasis, loving it!!! And a simple grey tee with a sequin hand print, thought it would be cool compared with a black leather pants or with a washed skinny jeans.

Do you like it?

Love, Melissa

Happy New Year everybody!

Dear readers,

Lots of love,

Melissa
