Relaxed style for SS13 by Copenhagen based designer Naja Lauf

Feminine fashion with a typical Danish laid back attitude, all in natural materials such as bamboo and silk for the highest comfort and quality. My favourite SS12 dress was the Naja Lauf Bianca dress. Wonder if I must have the Daphne dress.
And by all means -these picture don’t do the clothes justice! You need to try it on…

If money was no issue… Acne SS13 in Net-A-Porter!

Exclusive to Net-A-Porter.com The Acne paneled metallic leather mini dress is simply divine! Love the the cool colours combined in metallic space age twist. With tie fastenings along the back as an exciting detail. I would team it with bare deep blue sandals, to allow it to shine on it’s own.

Acne Rita biker jacket is one of the label’s most coveted designs, with it’s clean cut and edgy details. We love this latest black leather version, spliced with light-blue denim for a unusual look. It has a certain Spring feel to it? I would wear it with denim shorts or a simple summer dress.

Ole YDE Spring Summer 2013 with vintage Georg Jensen jewellery

Copenhagen based fashion house YDE creates unique and distinctive Prêt-à-Porter with a fine “poetic” touch. The label presented its new collection SS13 at Copenhagen Fashion Week August 2012, runway models accessorised with gorgeous shoes by Christian Louboutin and with vintage Georg Jensen sterling silver jewellery, curated by designer Ole Yde from the Danish silversmith’s impressive archives. See more yde-copenhagen.com
The models hair in loose waves, pinned to one side and graphic eye makeup complimented the feminine styles shown at the YDE by Ole Yde runway show. YDE is clearly a brand not following the typical Scandinavian minimalistic understated style, but rather on the contrary embraces glamorous luxury pieces for women, inspired from previous Hollywood divas.
