I tend to wear my favorite things a lot these days (Isabel Marant sneakers, my parka), and so I wear this leather mini-skirt again! And fact is, most of the things I bought on Oxford Street are my favorite items in my wardrobe. Now I hear you think “why is she talking about Oxford Street all the time, and what stands #FASHIONFLAGS for (which I used in my tweets last week)?”, well… I teamed up with Oxford Street to celebrate all things GREAT about the British Fashion Industry, which is in honour of HM The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. Oxford Street is doing this throughout May by flying 147 fashion flags for their shoppers to enjoy (see the video here)!

After a hectic week/weekend, with lots of shopping, it’s time to take a step back in a greener environment, away from the city. Even though the weather is still not very pleasant, or not pleasant enough to wear bare legs (again) I had to give my new skirt a try. I must say, when your upper body is dressed warm enough, bare legs aren’t that cold. Anyway, the wrapping effect of the skirt is the reason I bought a second one (have you seen my neon one?). Sorry for wearing my Isabel Marant sneakers all the time, but they are still one of my favorite shoes these days…

Totally obsessed with this t-shirt at the moment (worn it here). I think I need to get it, what do you think? Although, I find the others also quite cool…
Today I am wearing, again, my green Parka. It’s such an easy piece that always looks quite sophisticated. Anyway, it is still a little bit too cold to have bare legs, but I couldn’t resist popping into my new white leather skirt (yes, another Oxford Street jewel). I have to admit that I won’t be able to wear it all day, simply because the weather doesn’t allow me to, but honestly, I can’t wait till the weather gets finally better. I want spring! BADLY!
The knit is one of the pieces from Zara I have been lusting over since I saw it in their People! advertorial. So casual, kind of masculine, but amazing to combine with leather skirts and shorts (I still need to find a leather shorts though). Have a lovely Saturday!

As mentioned yesterday, most of my favorite shops are located on Oxford Street. So is Selfridges, where I finally found my Number Tee! Over the last weeks I tried to make up my mind which color I should take, which was quite hard… Green, Yellow, Blue… However, red was for a long time my ‘number’ one, but when I saw the black sleeveless one, I was sure this would be worth the investment 100%! I love the sporty feeling it gives to a look, what do you think?
