Tokyo Fashion Week Day 3: The Dark Side.

Day 3 check, two more days to go! I wont deny my thighs are shaking and certainly feeling the harsh Tokyo streets and stairs after walking around in heels all the time haha! I knew today would be rainy so I wore a casual outfit and tied my hair Princess Leia style. Also tried to make a kind of a smokey eye, but I'm worthless with eyeshadows so this was the poor result!! (Feel free to link some tutorials to smokey-eye makeup if you know any good ones!)
The last pic was taken by my boyfriend while some hectic streetstyle photographers were taking pictures haha! I look so embarrassed!

Kolmas FW päivä takana, kaksi jäljellä! Nyt alkaa reisissä tuntumaan Tokion kovat kadut ja tuhannet rappuset, kun olen pyörinyt yötä päivää koroissa hahaa! Tiesin että tänään sataisi joten turvauduin melkein kokomustaan asuun ja tähän prinsessa Leia kampaukseen. On niin kiva kun ei tarvitse huolehtia hiuksista yhtään koko päivän aikana. Kokeilin myös toista kertaa elämässäni smokey-eye meikkiä ja tässä tulos, olen ihan toivoton luomivärien kanssa äh!! (Linkatkaa mielellään meikki tutorialeja jos tiedätte jotain hyviä)
Poikaystävä otti viimeisen kuvan samalla kuin pari hullua streetstyle-valokuvaajaa nappasi minusta kuvia, näkyykö miten paljon mua nolotti? :D

Fashion Week FW13 Favourites

Made a little selection of my F/W13 Fashion Week Favourites from London, Milan and New York so far. Feel so inspired, I think I'm going to use these images as inspiration already now, it's perfect for the cold Tokyo weather!

 

Oh Oh OH how I love Phillip Lims casual chic laid-back looks! I would do anything to get my hands on that Phillip Lim coat and sport it next fall. Army green leather combined with white and grey is also a winner!

Prabal Gurung managed to make a very feminine version of the army trend, I haven't really liked the peplum trend this season but seen it like that, in a heavy olive green fabric makes me want to dress like that too!

WOW! Very unlike Paul Smith I think, but so great! The Pant-Suit trend is going to be big this summer, and I like how he took that concept and made it more oversized and casual.  And as in the Dagmar show, Paul Smith also makes me crave for that deep, intense violet. 

Note to self: Get Pink or red suit. NOW.

The Blumarine coats were great this season! In cold Tokyo right now I just want to wrap myself up in one of those fluffy, soft, warm jackets. The La La Berlin boots also caught my attention, so great! I can smell a DIY-option for them...

Glad to see prints are continuing into next season. I think it's more fun when fashion isn't too dark and serious ;) Definately going to use that matching turtleneck-sweater thing next season, and I would love a La La Berlin like print pattern coat to cheer up everyday dressing! A piece like that gives any kind of outfit a kick.
Roberto Cavalli also surprised me, I usually don't fall for that over-the-top-italian-glam fashion, but seen it like this in only black and white with different patterns, materials, textures and sparkles, it could be optimized and made into a bit more casual, cool look.

(Almost) no makeup

It might be because of my scandinavian almost blonde lashes, but I've always seen dark, long lashes as perfection in beauty. That's why my mascara is my best friend, and even though I never wear foundation or powder I always thought I would never, ever go anywhere without mascara.
Well turns out everything get's boring after a while!

I love the trend of being boyish "without" any make-up, meaning making it as invicible as possible, and embracing the androgynous look.




Basicly, the important thing is to concentrate on the skin and eyebrows. I used only bronzer on the cheeks and eyelids to create shadows, and darkened my eyebrows with and eyebrow pencil. Some natural white eyeshadow in the corner of the eye and voilá! No mascara needed for this girls will be boys look.
