Copenhagen Fashion Week SS13 x Stine Goya

Yesterday I went to Stine Goya’s SS13 show… I was sooo excited since it’s one of my ABSOLUTELY favorite danish brands ♥

The show was no disappointment…! She always seems to surprise me with the most beautiful prints and in this collection I JUST LOVED the the pants, the many jackets and showpieces.

I especially fell in love with a long padded jacket and the short waistline version as well ♥

The hair, make-up and scene had a circus and harlequin-like feel…. The show was really inspirational, the setting was beautiful and the attention to details was incredible.

Here are some of my favorite looks.

(I also went to Gallery, which is where they show all the SS13 collections from the different brands – I’ll post pictures tomorrow!)

Danish: Igår var jeg til Stine Goya’s SS13 show og det var absolut IKKE en skuffelse! Hun overrasker mig hver gang med de flotteste print og i denne kollektion var jeg især vild med bukserne, de mange jakker og deres showpieces. Jeg blev HELT forelsket i den lange vatteret jakke og den korte taljet version♥  Håret, make-up og scenen havde en slags cirkus eller harlekin-agtig følelse… Alt i alt et SUPER inspirerende show, smuk settings og sindsyg skarp sans for de små detaljer. Her er mine ynglings looks… Ps. Jeg var også i Gallery i Forum og tjekke de mange lækre SS13 kollektioner ud – Jeg poster billeder imorgen!

No Ordinary Monday Report

As some of you might know I’m on a “diet program” of my own called “No Ordinary Monday”.

On my last report I didn’t loose or (luckily!) gain any weight… This past week I’ve lost just around 500 grams – So that’s a total of 4 down and three kilos to go to reach my goal ♥

Now… I’m off to the gym!!

Danish: Som nogle af Jer ved er jeg på min egen opfundne kur kaldet “No Ordinary Monday”. Sidste mandag havde jeg jo hverken tabt mig eller (heldigvis!) taget på… Denne uge har jeg tabt mig ca. 500 gram, så det er i alt 4 kg tabt og mangler nu kun de sidste 3 kg for at nå mit mål ♥ Nu er jeg den der er smuttet til træningscentret!!

My New Russian Lover

As I’ve previously posted, I pampered myself and my family with a bunch of new haircare products from Philip B.

I’ve recently started to use the Russian Amber Imperial Shampoo and this thing is seriously AMAZING… I’m totally in LOVE ♥

It simply works miracles with my hair, which is usually quit frizzy, and leaves it smooth, sleek and “airy”… It also make my hair really easy to style which usually needs the heavenly blessings of my favorite hairdresser, Tom Skou.

Russian Amber has been featured in almost every major fashion magazine and recognized as 
the best of the best by Vogue magazines internationally! I can from the bottom of my… HAIR, seriously recommend this product to anyone #loveisinthehair

“The most restorative and protective color shampoo ever made, Russian Amber Imperial Shampoo has been proven to dramatically reduce fading while enhancing the overall health of your hair. Our potent combination of amino acids will infuse your hair with luxurious life, luster and shine instantly”

I’m On Chocolate Again!

Monday.. Monday… Monday!

As some of you of guys may know, I’m on a diet, so here’e my “Ordinary Monday” report…

I haven’t had much time last week, because of work, but I did manage to squeeze in one yoga class and a fitness class at the gym – Not quit 3 times as promised, but still…

Also I’ve been using Madlog, which is a homepage/iPhone app that provide you the tools to count calories in your own personal diary. You can set the rate of your desired weight loss per. week and it calculates how much you can eat everyday. When I work out I “punch in” the information and it then re-caculates the amount of food I’m “allowed” to eat – Pretty cool and effective tool!

Basically it means, that you can eat a pizza from Dominos and drink a Coke if you really wanted to! (It would probably result in that you’re not allowed to eat anything else that day!)

Anyways… Even though I’m allowed to eat “junk” or chocolate, it’s probably best that I let it be!
So now I’m treating my self with a different kind of chocolate!

Remember I got myself and the family a bunch of fabulous products from Philip B.? I just tried out the “Chocolate Milk Body Wash & Bubble Bath”.

It consist of a natural blend of cocoa butter, aloe, oat proteins and wheat amino acids…. I could seriously eat this!

Have a great “Ordinary Monday” everyone… Oh yeah, I lost 600 grams this week ♥ XOXO

Short Vs Long?

What’s a girl to do?

I’ve been wanting to cut my hair really short for a long time – Kinda like this.

I wasn’t brave enough to do it… So I got my hair done in a short Tom Bob Style to start with.

Today I went through some pictures from last summer and all of a sudden I really miss my long hair ♥ So now I’m contemplating if I should go all the way short, keep it as it is now or grow it long again?

Today’s “Everyday look” x Thai Tea

Goodmorning everyone!

As some of you remember I pampered myself and the whole family with some fantastic products from Philip B.

Today I tried the “Thai Tea Mind & Body Wash”… Let me tell you, it’s nothing like the “striped ones” from Matas!

It’s 20% pure botanical extracts and consist of thai tea, honey, coconut, milk proteins, peppermint, lemongrass, ginger root, lime and citronella – This just smells incredible!

My skin really feels replenished and energized… I’m ready for another day at the office! #sofreshandsoclean

Today I’m wearing riding boots (No brand), dress from Mads Nørgaard, leather sheepskin jacket from Designers Remix, scarf from Magasin and a Prada Bag.

Have a great day! XOXO

Too Fat To Blog?!

This morning I saw the “TV 2 Go’ Morgen” show (Translate: TV 2 Good Morning”), which featured a story about a swedish blogger, who posted some innocent pictures of her self in a bikini on vacation in the Bahamas.

These pictures resulted in more than 1.400 comments… A lot of them saying that she is TOO FAT TO POST PICTURES! See the pictures here that sparked the heavy debate.

As some of you know I’m on a diet and hitting the gym trying to loose those extra “love-handles”…

Being 7kg “overweight” and having a blog my self, my question is: WHEN ARE YOU TOO FAT TO BLOG?! My answer… NEVER!

We all live in a twisted media world, that give women an image on how a beautiful woman should look like, what your size should be when wearing a bikini, how tall you should be, how skinny your legs needs to be in those jeans or what color hair you should have..!

For me blogs are a source of inspiration… No matter who’s behind it!
Who’s to decide who should blog and when your not “fit” for having a blog?

I blog because I have a passion for fashion.. A love for design… This blog is my way of expressing myself in a creative way and sharing my world! Should I stop blogging because I’m not model-thin? Because I’m not named “Top 100 Most beautiful Woman”?

The reasons for me trying to loose weight is not because I want to look like a model, but it’s really more about living a heathy lifestyle. Having a mother who’s been overweight her whole life, I’ve seen the negative things that follows…

I’m proud of who I am and I love being able to blog about the things I’m passionate about! I’m proud of the inspiration I give the people who follows my blog – Your comments and likes really means the world to me! #bootyliciousmother

I’m really anxious to hear what you guys think in the comments?

Ordinary Monday Outfit

The first day on a diet is finally over! As I wrote this morning, this was no ordinary monday.

I decided to go on a diet, that was going to last longer than just this monday…

I was motivated, felt really good about “proclaiming” it on the blog and I was ready to take the bull by it’s horn!

I mixed a diet-shake and went of to work and held my promise even though they surprised everyone at work with special baked Valentines Day cupcakes #feelingveryproud

As I told you guys I’m starting yoga classes, Pilates and hitting the gym, so naturally I’m looking at some training clothes.

I got the sneakers and here’s the rest of the wishes on my list for an “Ordinary Monday Outfit”:

No Ordinary Monday!

Every monday I keep telling myself:

“Yasmin, this monday you’ll go and use that fitness membership card, that you pay 500DKK (67€) per. month for! You’ll go to Pilates, run the thread mill and do spinning classes… Today… This very day… This monday… You’ll go on that fr*aking diet.. No more chocolate… No more… Got to fit in those newly bought Acne jeans!”

Usually I’m really pumped by this self-motivational speech, and usually that motivation gets drowned in work, two kids and other daily routines!

By the time it’s tuesday there’s an unused membership card in my purse, no diet, no training and a box of half-eaten chocolates and a DIET pepsi on the table… #ireallyluvchocolate

Dreaming about Spring and Summer and looking at the most beautiful dresses – I’ve made a promise to my self to FINALLY loose the last 7Kg (15Lbs)!!

So today – On this monday I’m making it OFFICIAL TO THE WORLD… I’m going on a diet and I’m starting training!!

I’ll update you guys every “Ordinary Monday” - Follow me as I try to loose those extra “Love-handles”…

1) I’m going to use http://www.madlog.dk, which is a homepage/iPhone app that provide you the tools to count calories in your own personal diary
2) I’m going to train 2-3 times every week (I know, very ambitious!) and staring tonight, me and my girlfriend have booked yoga classes
3) I’m going to use a pair of nice looking Nike sneakers I just bought (LOL)

My Hair Products: New In

As I told you guys yesterday I went to “Square Halls”… But the real reason for me being in the city was to visit my favorite hairdresser Tom Skou ♥

After my last visit I totally fell in love with some fantastic hair products from Philip B and as the shampoo-supply at home was running low, I needed something new.

So… I decided to spoil my self with some new products. Well I actually ended up spoiling the whole family and came home with a bag filled with products (Whoops!)

Today I tried out the White Truffle Shampoo and White Truffle Conditioner…
WOW! I must say I really feel my hair is nourished, healthy and “alive”…
It’s the best I’ve done for my hair in a while!

The thing I love about the products is that they’re botanical and you can really see the plant extracts in the bottom of the bottles (You need to shake them before using!) – It’s perfect for my usually dry, thick “troll” hair #loveisinthehair

Have a great Sunday! XOXO

You can buy these fantastic products at Tom Skou. You can find you local DK retailer here. All other nationalities see here.
