Copenhagen Fashion Week


One city, Copenhagen- 4 fairs-46 shows and more than 2400 brands in the Fashion Capital of Scandinavia
I am missing this years fashion week in Copenhagen, again. It is so annoying, I always have exams or work, or something that will keep me away from going.
May be next year:)



I loved Edith and Ella's fashion show. I loved the colors and fabrics-you can see some pictures from their show  HERE

Long time, No see!


Dear Ladies, I had a long break and I have not been very active. Christmas, exams etc. too busy period for everyone of course:)

I wanted to share this great experience at the fish foot spa:D, one of the great presents I received from my boyfriend. It was amazing and I had a lot of fun. If you have not tried it, I totally recommend you to do that. If you live in Denmark you can check out HERE, for available offers in the deal sites, where you can find great prices. 

Tomorrow, CPH fashion week begins so look forward for updates from the Scandinavian fashion capital.

Yours,
Fahion Memos.

Christmas Advent Calendar DIY


As promised, the Christmas Calendar DIY:P

That is the calendar that I made for my boyfriend this year:)I am really proud of the result and he was really happy about the gesture and my effort I put in it:)

Step 1:
Here are some things you need in order to prepare it:

24 envelopes, different sizes or what I did was to cut the small envelopes in two and have them in half
Some Christmas paper that you can use as a background
White A3 Paper, I put together 4 pieces of A3 paper in order to get the size
I also needed some colorful paper to make it more cheerful 
24 Christmas socks, those ones are textile and I have not bought them but of course you can use whatever you want to draw the numbers

Step 2:

That is the actual process, for me it took time because I have had a lot of classes so I did not have that much time to do it so I use only my evenings but can be done in a day of course.

Step 3:

This step was the most challenging for me as it represents all the presents. I first did not think about how I am going to fit them in my calendar so it was pretty difficult to place all the present at one and the same time. I am putting now every day a present in, or a clue where to find it:)

What can you put in the calendar?
I used different candy of course, games, socks etc. You can get all the inspiration you need, stopping by the local supermarkets etc.





I hope you enjoyed it:)

Yours,
Fashion Memos

Christmas has arrived in Denmark

Hello dear ladies:)

How are you? Enjoying the Christmas spirit and the cold weather?
The first real snow has arrived in Denmark, everything is white and so pretty. I spent the day at home enjoying the view from the window and watching the Sunday program on the TV :)

Exam time is so close and I know that I should study and start preparing for them, but it just feels so good to be laze and enjoy myself:):D

I have tried a pretty cool DIY project that I made actually for my boyfriend. It is a Christmas Calendar, from 1-24th December, where he has a small present every day. Stay tuned tomorrow and I am going to show you some pictures.

Now I have prepared my wishlist for Christmas, may be you can get some inspiration.:)


Those items are just a part of a long list that I have sent to my family. To them I have also added vouchers to some of my favorite shops, some things I would like to have in the kitchen and many more:D

What do you think? Have you already prepared your wish list?

kisses and enjoy your Sunday!

New in: Long in Leather

Having a great weekend?!

I hope you are. I have had a great Saturday, enjoying some shopping for Christmas presents and of course enjoying myself:)

I have just sent my Christmas Wishlist to all of my family and friends, and they all agreed on one- NO shoes for me as a present under the Christmas tree:( Unfortunately for me, but what can I do! That is the reason why today I decided to treat myself with a beautiful pair of long black boots!


Soon I am gonna post an outfit post with them!
If you have a pair of long boots that you want to share with all of us, just send me an email with a picture you wearing them, your name and your blog address so I make sure the picture refers back to you also!:)

I am looking forward to receiving your mails here:
fashionmemos (at) gmail (dot) com

Enjoy your weekend and don't forget to send your picture!:)
Yours,

I wish It would be mine

It was love from first sight!
If I was about to make a list of wishes for Christmas, this jacket would definitely be on the list. 
What do you think about it?

Favorites: Long Boots

I am just 1,65 m tall so I usually do not like to wear boots that go over my knee as it makes me even shorter, but I can see that the trend is still alive and a lot of girls still wear the so trendy long boots to the knee or even over the knee:)

The most common combination I would see is with a simple black dress/ skirt and the very popular oversize pullovers or with skinny jeans. Even if I clearly know that they do not fit my height and make me even smaller, I have to confess that I also have a pair of those gorgeous booties myself and love them a lot.

 Here are some inspiration photos that I found interesting, Enjoy!






What do you think about those booties, do you have a pair of those in your wardrobe?
Enjoy your Friday darlings!
Yours,
Fashion Memos.
