Olympic spirit

ThankFifi-Zara-2

dylana blouse – c/o Rada Priya (first worn here)
shorts – Zara
sandal – Zara (last worn here)
sunglasses – Ralph Lauren
watch – Michael Kors, tribute bracelet – Stella and Dot
moody model nail polish – H&M, Piccadilly Circus nail polish – Nails Inc 

leather lead – vintage Ancol
coat – model’s own c/o Infindigo

In keeping with the spirit of the Olympics I donned my new running shorts… and went for icecream (ferrero rocher in case you’re wondering).  The shape appeals to me and the material is almost waxy – if you’ve got a Zara nearby you might still be able to find them in the sale section.

I went all out sickly sweet pastel because I’m pretty sure colder times are right around the corner.  Just a hello nod to autumn with the darker nails.

So wonderful to be treated to a weekend in the sun; drinks on the terrace with the girls followed by an obscene amount of dinner for 3… river walks, frappuccinos, a birthday dinner (more on that tomorrow), party planning and, of course, the Olympics.  Team GB and London did us proud!  Did you watch too?

    Oh I so enjoyed the ending ceremony yesterday Pet Shop Boys and Kate Moss being the highlights of the evening for me!!
    In terms of the outfit, I can’t stop but marvel in front of your natural ability to come up with a gorgeously thematic look that is so beautiful and chic on you!! The ancient greek sandals are divine maybe on borrow from God Hermes? :)

    Karhu should know but he won’t tell I know! :)

      It was such a great closing (and opening for that matter) ceremony – I suppose we must thank Greece for the games! Thanks for your sweet comment about the look too.x
      p.s. Karhu NEVER tells…

      they are from the sale over a year ago but one of those classics that just go from year to year quite happily!
