Copenhagen Fashion Week- Yasamin Zafar & Friture

People at the SS13 Yasamin Zafar show & Friture show. I spotted the girl in the pink dress & thought she looked super cute & cool with her platinum like hair, vintage dress & beat up All stars.

You can´t help notice this guy. He is one of the bloggers from carolinesmode.  He looks like he just stepped out of a Star Wars movie after saying goodbye to his friend Obi Wan Kenobi. I really like his look & I always admire people that dares to be different. He is so pale & his hair is very blonde & lies flat on his head.

Copenhagen based Yasamin Zafar´s show was the first one up. Unfortunately I didn´t get any good shots at the show, but you can check out this blog for some pictures from both shows. Unfortunately there aren´t any pictures of my favorite items. I especially liked Yasamin Zafar´s suede bikershorts & the body below.

This dress is also quite cool. I like that it´s lower in the back. As a kid I loved wearing the backside of my shirt out.

Next up was Friture. The brand is both Danish & Norwegian & like Yasamin Zafar the brand has a ready to wear vibe, but with a surprising element-both brands are very clever in my opinion. Below are my favorites from the collection.

Casual but with great details. I am sure that many Scandinavian will be wearing both Yasemin Zafar & Friture next summer. I will for sure be wearing suede bikershorts & the long dresses which are slightly longer in the back.

Today I am 33!

Inspired by the blog: “Self Professed Product Obsessed” I will tell you 33 things you probably didnt know about me

1 I don´t mind getting older-Oprah promised life is only better as you get older.

2 I really like Oprah.

3 I think everybody should visit Iceland-it is so special.

4 I plan to learn to speak a lot of languages now that I finished my masters degree.

5 I am actually a black belt in taekwondo. I earned my black belt when I was 14 &  at the same time I landed a spot on the danish national team. Now I coach children-including my oldest child. It´s so much fun. I get to be really tough & make them to a lot of push-ups & I get so much love from them.

6 I drink a lot of tea. It´s a cultural thing. In Afghanistan & Pakistan ( dad was born i Afghanistan & mom in Pakistan ) there is a lot of tea-drinking going on…especially chai: boiled milk, black tea & cardamom-yum…

7 My favorite book is “Jønke-mit liv”….no just kidding it´s “Jønke-mit liv part two”….bad joke he is the most famous criminal from the bikersquad Hell´s Angels, Copenhagen. I    don´t have a favorite book- I have tons of favorite books.

8 I didn´t enjoy being pregnant. I was so sick all the time & everything smelled more than usual. I suddenly didn´t enjoy my tea anymore, I couldn´t stand warm showers, I couldn´t drink tapwater. It was just weird & uncomfortable.

9 I bought my first Gucci bag when I was 18. I had been in the store window for a while & when it was put on sale I was lucky to have the amount it cost. I still have it.

10 Humour is an important part of my life. Fx my husbands sense of humour made me fall for him very quickly. We laugh a lot at our house…

11 My favorite european capital besides Copenhagen is Paris.

12 Favorite country to visit is the US.

13 My very first concert was a Janet Jackson concert. I still love her Rhythm Nation ( love the outfit she wore in the Rhythm Nation video) & Janet album ( I used to wear my jeans like her-you know the button part was inside out).

14 I love my bike. A good bike is essential here in Copenhagen.

15 Because I have daughters I feel it´s ok to buy quality stuff like Burberry coats & Prada shoes, cause I will pass the good style & items on to them. It´s an investment-right?!!!

 16 I like finding vintage coats. Last year I found a Max Mara trenchcoat in London. Only 40 pounds & it looks like new.

17 My favorite comedy show when I was a kid was:” Fresh Prince of Bel Air.” I thought Will Smith was the coolest & best dressed guy alive.

18 I love watching Gossip Girl,  because of their outfits.

19 I enjoy watching the cartoon Cow & Chicken, but I really don´t think it´s for kids ( It´s on Cartoon Network)

20 My favorite everyday shoe is All Stars-they are so comfy & looks great when they are beat up.

21 I like playing tennis & volleyball, but I am not very good at it.

22 I once found a pigeon on my attic. It had eggs & everything up there-eeew.

23 In highschool our class went to Poland. When I went to see the concentration camp in Auschwitch I cried hard for an hour afterwards. It was just too much. We saw the gas chambers, the prisoners clothes ( fx little babyshoes), hair, stuff made out of human skin, their suitcases and so on. Horrible.

24 Being a student at the university really opened my mind. It made my world a lot bigger, a lot more tolerant & openminded.

25 I like carrots & strawberries- a lot.

26 I love sleeping when it´s sunny outside. Lying in the sun in my own bed is awesome.

27 Actually I can sleep anywhere. At the university I used to sleep with my head on the desk. Once I didn´t notice that class started again so I woke up in the middle of class.

28 Another time I fell asleep in the library & accidentally swept my stuff on the floor. I woke up because of the noise. It was quite embarrassing.

29 My favorite icecream is Icelandic from a small shop in the western  part of Reykjavik-it is soooo good!

30 My favorite Disney movie is Mulan. It´s is too funny & she is a strong girl-I like fighters.

31 I like doing puzzles-I find it meditative

32 I think a lot of Danish designers are really great.

33 I have moments everyday where I feel grateful & genuinely happy.

Have a great day everybody!

I will sit back & let my sweet family spoil me : )
