I don't know if it's something in the air or the water. But this particular hue of blue is apparently going to rock our worlds this year. It all started with Boudicca's Wode fragrance, which I probably don't have to introduce to you anymore. The spray can is a mixture of perfume/blue paint, the color of which does or doesn't disappear once you spray it - depending on how brave you were choosing

I came across this picture of Zooey Deschanel on Jayne's blog, and have been obsessed by her outfit ever since. I've already got the perfect navy top, navy tights and black ballerina's to recreate it, but obviously the skirt is more difficult to find. It has to be the perfect bright yellow to go with the navy...

Lately I've noticed I need more ways to channel my creativity and ideas than this blog. I'm a superorganised person (or at least I only function properly when I am), so I need solutions for interviews, article ideas and moodboards. The latter should be big, the others should be in the form of some kind of notebook.Flipping through the latest Monocle issue, I came across Archie Grand Notebooks.

Isn't she lovely? I admire this girl not just for her amazing looks, but also for her elegance, her creativity, her upbeat attitude, her beautiful photography and her crazysexycool outfits. She's a major source of inspiration to me, and I'm always sad if she hasn't updated her blog yet when I check.

Stumbled across a blog that used the words "red pills and blue pills" in the title of a post, and couldn't stop thinking about Valley of the Dolls today. I've only read the book, so now I'm wondering if the movie's just as good.

I can't say it was love at first sight, with Zooey and me. Sure, I saw her quirky pictures and name appear in every blog and basically all of the magazines that matter. But I never made an effort to understand what the fuss was about. So when I watched Yes, Man tonight, I was very pleasantly surprised, and now I'm finally on board. I can even officially say I have a third girl crush. Katy Perry,

So I figured it'd be a crime not to take advantage of the low £. I've been windowshopping a couple of sites for a while, but it wasn't until I stumbled on Urban Outfitters.co.uk that I found a legitimate reason to spend. I think I managed to find a couple of items that will be great for summer: frilly cardigans for layering and the full skirt which I'm hoping won't be as mini as I fear it'll be.

I don't normally check DazedDigital all that often, but I know now that I should. Look who I found on the frontpage... Why, it's Jean-Paul Lespagnard, only one of the most promising and imaginative Belgian designers at the moment. He won the 1,2,3 prize at the Hyeres festival, which means his capsule collection for 1,2,3 will be in stores February.Sandrina Fasoli at Mango, Jean-Paul Lespagnard at

I would love to go to London for a weekend sometime in January. There's two exhibitions I'm dying to see: Hussein Chalayan at the Design Museum and Mark Rothko at the Tate Modern. Though Chalayan is not one of my favourite designers, I do admire him for his vision and experimentalism. Besides, as The Telegraph states: "Also on show will be 'Airborne', which comprises a dress of Swarovski crystals

In an effort to make up for my spending urges (on shoes - which are incredibly hard to thrift, see), I'm going to try and make this Lanvin top myself. It doesn't look like it should be hard, but tips and recommendations are welcome!

Okay... So I changed my mind. Maybe now is not the time to spend less. At least not on shoes. We have to support the economy, to get rid of the recession, isn't that right?Look at these beauties. All the elegance of a ballet slipper, all the quality and details of Lanvin. It's a match made in heaven. I need them.

I want these SO bad, they almost make me forget about my promise to spend less. Almost. I spend way too much time on net-a-porter.

Just read an interesting article in the weekend newspaper, trying to predict what 2009 will bring. A couple of things weren't all that surprising. I mean, unless you've lived on Mars for the past year, you know ecology is going to be playing an ever bigger part in our lives. And I've interviewed several designers during the past months, who've predicted the focus in luxury fashion will be on

I know it's probably a fashion sin to say this, but I'll never feel comfortable wearing a dress that costs more than my monthly wage. And of course I'll admire them, on others, for the craftmanship that went into them, for the vision the designer expresses, and just plainly because it does look *so* amazingly beautiful. But to tell me I have to go to a party in that, instead of my regular priced

Curtis Sittenfeld is the new Tom Wolfe. Only better. If there is any author out there, better able to describe the social mechanisms of American society and the innermost thoughts of its inhabitants, I'm not aware of him or her. Please introduce me to them, though, if they exist.I read American Wife a while ago, and I honestly didn't expect I'd like it as much as I did. But if you've read Prep

Just discovered an easy tool to keep track of all the blogs I love, thanks Emma! The site's called bloglovin´, and you can register your own blog, as well as follow the blogs you love. Way easier than the following device on blogspot, because obviously not all interesting websites are on blogspot. See you there!

And I don't know whether it's the translation or the original message, but this girl is too cute.

In my research for a column on recession chic, I got inspired to make an extra promise to myself for 2009. I think the basis of the term recessionista comes down to improvising, being creative, finding beauty where you least expect it, and surprising yourself and others with inventive solutions. I'd like to try not to get carried away by new fashion fads this year, but to further define my style

Apparently the lady in the pictures below and to the side is a stylist, so maybe I should change the easy chic title of the previous post. It's not called easy chic when it's your job to put together these outfits, right? But you'll have to admit she's quite talented. I discovered a whole lot more pictures of her at Garance Doré's site. And Giovanna has a site of her own, too. I wish I could ask

Can you tell I'm obsessed with yellow right now? I know I'm late re-blogging this picture from The Sartorialist, but I love this woman's outfit. The gray-yellow combo isn't new, but with the added touch of her floral scarf and the leather-like texture on her pants she makes it her own. I'm going to be looking at this pic for inspiration when the summer collections are out in the shops.

I just re-discovered last night's party through this pretty blog. I first saw the photobook at Colette's a couple of years ago. I think we even featured it in one of the magazines I was writing for. Anyhow, I love its photography: interesting people, outrageous outfits, bright colors, weird parties. I always wonder what the people in the pictures are like, and why they're behaving like they are,

Now is the time to buy your new winter coat. Sales have officially started at Net-a-Porter.com, which means you can buy a top-of-the-range beauty for so much less. I definitely want to get me a brightly colored one, and I think I'm leaning toward red. But this gray Mike&Chris trench is so beautiful, I'm not sure what to do!

I think I might try something like this in my bedroom. Though with a little less old fashioned fabrics, and a different color scheme. I'm thinking browns, creams and pinks.

Can't wait for the Mango by Sandrina Fasoli to hit the stores in January. I met the designer duo a couple of weeks ago, and was taken in by them. Slightly shy, but brilliant, is how I would describe them. I wish more shops would believe in them and buy their main collection. I definitely think many fashion lovers would be happy to discover their work.

I'm obsessed with scented candles at the moment. Diptyque made the item into a luxurious, well-designed little treat - though retail prices at €80 are perhaps too steep to be called 'little'. I love everything about it, though. From its beautiful, understated packaging to its ability to turn an entire room into a cosy yet stylish environment. Another brand that captured my attention this year,

I fell in love with boho magazine the moment I saw it standing between Harper's and W. It couldn't be more different from its neighbours, though gorgeous women's faces stare back at me from each of the covers. But Boho magazine is made entirely from recycled paper, as it is a green magazine. Everything inside it is either fairtrade, ecological or otherwise ethically responsible. Still, it manages

I've always felt that music can enhance whatever feeling you experience. The right tune on your iPod will put a beat in your step, whether you're on your way to work or running laps for those two bars of chocolate you ate yesterday. That's why I think the effect of the right music playing in boutiques is not to be underestimated. It can create or destroy the atmosphere in a shop: the one that
