Balenciaga, among others, placed emblems on their jackets, often on double breasted ones. Instead of looking for the perfect jacket, that would go out on date anyway, I got an emblem brooch for a dollar at the flea market yesterday. When I got home I remembered that I had bought something similar at at shop called Bik Bok many years ago. I guess the two B´s in the middle stand for the name of the shop, but an ex of mine thought it meant Baron Blood, which sounds way cooler so I choose to believe that´s what it means. I´m going to place these on the military jacket that I´ve worn a couple of times lately, and perhaps on my black double breasted wool coat from H&M with gold buttons.

I didn´t find any detail shots of the emblems at Balenciaga, but at least you get a hint of it in this photo.

These are the two that I´ll be using for the look.

I don´t know how many times I´ve written about headscarves although I for some reason almost never wear them. Every single time I flip through a magazine and notice a scarf I stop and have an extra look, the same happens when I look through the collections of the big designers. As it´s more of a fall thing since they can be a little uncomfortable on hot summer days, I may at least try to get better at wearing them the next few months. I picked up the latest issue of Costume today and in one of the photo shoots the scarf was used in pretty much all of the pictures. A lady like hat is an important accessory this coming season, so I loved the scarf under the hat the most. It just looks so classy! When looking at these pictures I realized that the 40´s inspired and more lady like looks are going to be just as big for me this fall as all the leather and latex.

I hate that time in between seasons when I´m starting to feel tired of the current season while the coming season hasn´t hit the shops yet. During that time I can stare into my closet for ages without coming up with anything to wear. Now that fall is right around the corner, the air is feeling a little chillier and the shops are starting to get filled up with new items, I get butterflies in my stomach. So while I wait, I spend my time flipping through magazines, looking for yet more items to crave for. At least these looks can be pulled off without spending much money. Also notice the little brooch dressing up the scarf in the third picture. An easy way to make it look extra special.

Today we went into the deep forest of Norway to pick mushrooms and also ended up getting some blueberries. It was nice to get away for some fresh air away from all the tall buildings and traffic.
