Although prom lies a long time away, I have already begun searching for what accessories to wear. This year's theme will be Phantom of the Opera. I absolutely love that movie so I'm super excited to see how it will turn out! That means I'll be spending an extra long time deciding on what dress I should wear. Perhaps I shall sew something! Anyway, I found this perfect little accessory during my time in the shopping malls of Thailand. It can be worn as a broach or hairclip so I'll have to wait and see what works best.

Hurray!!! On my latest trip to Thailand I managed to pick up some lovely Japanese magazines. The list included my all-time favorite magazine 'Classy' and some new ones that I decided to try out. I got 'Fudge', 'Numéro Tokyo', and 'Spur'. Yikes, but I've been sooo busy lately that I haven't yet had time to read them :( I can't wait until the weekend, super excited, want to read them now!

Immediately upon walking through the large doors I was greeted by my favorite just out of reach lux stores. Salivating at the sight of the beautiful shop windows I managed to make my rounds through the stores. Chanel's windows were Christmas themed with delicate white paper trees everywhere within sight- perhaps something I should try myself for next Christmas :)

J'adore Dior! Ahhh what beauty, so, so, classy! Who couldn't help but feel like a true princess looking like that? Oh dear fairy god mother where are you? This look would have been totally perfect for Madame Audrey Hepburn in the film Breakfast at Tiffany's don't you all agree?

This adorable scene was at Hermès. I just can't resist those tiny cute tables! Where can I get myself one or two of those, hmmmm? On the topic of love have you noticed the wallpaper in the background? Très chic!!!!

So I don't know what you darlings like to do on a dark, almost rainy Saturday but I've decided to stay in today. Many think staying in can be very dull, but each time I'm home I try to celebrate, relax, and just enjoy myself. This means curling up under my fluffy Jim Thompson throw and catching up with the latest magazines such as the Japanese fashion magazine So-En which arrived fresh off the boat yesterday :) To keep me company I also have a new box of my favorite Godiva chocolates and some fantasy-like pink roses. What do you like to do when staying in?

While at 798 Art District, I not only checked out the latest art installations, sculptures, and paintings but also got a sneak peek at the latest fashion display at White Box Museum of Art. It was Swedish Fashion that had finally reached Beijing, the last stop of their travelling showcase. I was given an exclusive look inside before the exhibition opened. Here you too can get a sneek peek and enjoy some of the clothes that will soon be on display.

During my time in London, my days were not spent walking the urban streetmarkets or checking out the sights but instead they were spent in a small bright classroom on the top floor of Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design. Having participated in two of their summer courses for 16 to 18 year olds last summer, I wanted to relive the experience again. Last summer I attended Fashion Styling and Making Fashion. I absolutely loved the experience, therefore signing up to the two week course Fashion Sketchbook. As Central Saint Martins currently has several small buildings located around London, I wanted to try out a different location from my previous year and this time at Back Hill. And boy am I glad, as it proved to be truly fantastic! The two weeks were spent working off a theme, learning important information about fashion illustration, as well as the industry itself, all while building our sketchbooks with our own fashion illustrations.

Ah the V & A (Victoria & Albert) Museum is without a doubt my favorite when it comes to London Museums.

For those of you who have yet to experience the wonders of Bond Street London and might not even know what it is, I thought I'd give you all a glimpse of my favorite London Street- Bond Street. It is one of the most fashionable shopping streets in all of London with some of the biggest names and brands having stores on it. Stocking high end brands like Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Cartier, Chopard, Bally, Mulberry, Alexander McQueen, Chanel and so so many more.

Gucci

Bond Street also happens to have my favorite chocolate boutique there, Charbonnel et Walker. The truffles are absolutely divine and they come in gorgeous boxes which I like to create displays with in my room. From personal experience I can truly say that the Pink Marc De Champagne Truffles, and the Dusted Strawberry Truffles are spectacularly scrumptious!

The displays you can create if you are a chocolate lover with something as simple as a chocolate box can add a lot of personality to your room, desk, or even bathroom. I have them displayed in all of those places and think it looks really cute and unexpected yet blends right in. What do you think? Something you might want to try?

I stopped by to see the 'Power of Fashion - 300 years of clothing' exhibition. I loved the section on the historical garments, there was even a video showing the exhausting process of putting on one of those drop dead gorgeous Victorian gowns. The show featured clothes from different eras and from all over the world with a smaller section on the more contemporary clothes as shown above.

What an amazing building the Nordiska museum is, it is truely a gigantic space, way too big to fit on my camera!

While wandering around the museum, getting lost in the large building, I stumbled upon this fantastic mini exhibition on traditions and customs. As you can see above, my dining room was featured with my hard working servants Henri and Louis :) Oh I wish!

The balcony of the museum had a terrific view! Here is Strandvägen where I stopped by after to check out the design store Svenskt Tenn. Honestly I LOVE Strandvägen, I mean imagine what a great view I would have, looking right out at the water and Nordiska! I like :)

Light and summery, this purple dress stole my heart with the soft natural fabric and the flowers on the top.

At 'Inside & Living' I found the prettiest box of French Rose Green Tea. Being a tea lover it was a must have. I had a cup this morning and felt super refreshed tasting the mixture of rose and green tea. Yum.

All these fabulous purple clothes are from the hot brand Dranella with the exception of the top which is from Soyaconcept, puchased at the lifestyle store 'Inside & Living'.

Feeling completely inspired by the new Sex and The City movie (2), a trip to Indiska felt appropriate. Recognizing the ethnic clothes worn in the middle eastern scenes set in Abu Dhabi I fell for this decorated top/ tunic and the dress below.

Fresh off my flight from Tokyo, I'm at the Malene Birger boutique at the airport. The Danish designer is highly regarded for her designs and has adopted the nickname "Queen of Fashion" in Copenhagen.

Working it at Tokyo Narita Airport. Fully packed and ready to see the world or at least Stockholm and London. Forget about comfort, style is priority number one as you never know who you'll end up meeting.

Tokyo has some of the world's best shops and stores. Along with that they have Tsutaya. Tsutaya is my personal favorite, they stock more magazines than you could possibly imagine or read. These are just a few of my must haves: Classy, JJ, Vogue Nippon, Glamorous, etc .
