I AM EMKA!

Dear readers and others.

Back with fashion

I've had somewhat of a break from my blog (call it writers block), but I've decided to return to the wonders of blogging with a little input of FASHION...

As most high-street fashionistas would know, Versace recently designed a collection for H&M. At first, I was a little disappointed with their collection, having only seen the press photos, but after looking closely at it, I must admit, that it's actually a pretty cool collection.

Personally though, it's not my style, but it's still worth checking out.

Cheerio luvvies! :)

The designers you most likely won't hear about.

Earlier this morning, I read about a new concept by Danish-American Gitte Jonsdatter. This concept is called MUUSE.com (just clicky-clacky) and it will help newly-graduated designers from various design schools around the globe to give these new designers a chance to sell their takes of what to wear.
You then order it from the website and the clothes will be sown to suit you specifically in their office in Copenhagen and sent to you where-ever you are.

All of this - amazing! idea! However, there is a but.

While the concept is well thought of, the website is slightly confusing. Or so I find, anyway. Luckily, they do tell you exactly how it works in their section 'About Us' and you've got a possibility to read their blog.

It's definitely worth checking out, fashionistas!

Two Door Cinema Club

I know, I know... it's bad to advertise about music on a blog because people might have different taste than you when it comes to music. Well, I don't care! I urge you to buy the Two Door Cinema Club album called Tourist History, because it's amazing!

And if you don't want to buy it, at least take a listen to this amazing band!

Stylish photos.

I love looking in fashion magazines and at style photos, and sometimes you do stumble on one that is absolutely mindblowing.
While this one is not mindblowing, it's still a very good example of one of those fashion photos that will stay in the back of your mind, even if you aren't into the Olsen twins.

Rest in Peace, Troy Davis.

The 21st of September will be remembered for a case of injustice to an innocent man called Troy Davis.
Troy Davis. It will also be remembered as a day where a great amount of miscarriage of justice occurred.

Troy Davis was convicted of murdering a police officer in 1989, but 7 out of 9 eye-witnesses changed their testimony and there was no physical evidence linking him to the scene of crime. There was simply too much doubt to execute him.

Yet, it happened. The 21st of September at 11:08 pm EST Troy Davis died due to lethal injection.

But there are many Troy Davises out there - and the fight for justice towards them will continue.

Rest in Peace, Troy Davis - the fight has only just begun.

Just a little about fashion.

Whenever I'm shopping, my clothes tends to be either black or other dark colours (the exception is a red dress and a few pastel coloured t-shirts). What I tend to do to get some inspiration is to look at various websites.

Here's my suggestion for a more colourful outfit from Zara:

The Neoprene Studio top:

These wonderful Metallic Trousers:

And to maintain the androgynous look, wear a pair of either brogues or bluchers with the outfit, like these:

I do believe this is a wonderful example that day-to-day clothes doesn't have to be dark! :)
