I am very much into the neon yellow bags lately... Could not make up my mind between the Cambridge Satchel, Marc by Marc Jacobs and the one from DVF and ended up ordering from Cambridge Satchel Company (which will take about 30 days :( as it is made to order).

And this one from Proenza Schouler is perfect, it is like love at first sight. One of my style icons, president/creative director of J. Crew, Jenna Lyons (she sure deserves a dedicated post of her own ) carried it a couple of times during NYFW. Isn't it the perfect leather, perfect size and the perfect hardware to brighten up any outfit. J'adore...

saturday

I don't have an IPhone but since I have been seeing instagram posts here and there and especially by my dearest theverythirstyraindrop I seized MTs phone and started using Instagram (now I understood what Pelin meant :P )

Anyway here is an instagram diary of last Saturday. We have been to Mudo Concept in Panora, one of our favorite places in Ankara, especially if its cold outside. We have first enjoyed it's cafe which has average food but beautiful interior and then spent some time seeing the design objects and furniture. Our day in Panora ended with a waffle -as usual- after seeing the Star wars in 3D (Although I am a huge fan of George Lucas and watched the series several times, I didn't like the 3D thing, maybe the original scenes were such amazingly produced that it doesn't need a 3D effect to impress more :P )

Notes: Love the neon vases, seems like neon will be everywhere next season... And the colorful patchwork sofa, in my dreams for a long time, should start considering buying one :) Wore my new mint H&M sweater, perfect for this weather. And MTs white watch, crazy but he likes watches so much, different colors, different shapes, funky, classical, nautical.

Seems like cats have invaded the New York Fashion Week street scene :)
Opening Ceremony X Glamour sweaters even before they hit the stores, cute...

Still cold and seems like we have a couple of cold weeks ahead :(
Although I am bored of wearing coats, layers, sweaters and gloves, this particular scarf brought sunshine into my world :) Mary Kate's photo is from June 2010 and the long long crochet patchwork scarf is from House of Hollands AW2011 collection. Love the vibrant colors... Have a nice week :)

tonight

I know what exactly I will be drinking tonight...
Hot Chocolate & Marshmallows or maybe I can step into the darker side and make it mocha :)

Shoulder bag from Givenchy Obsedia collection, love the gothic look...

asliabbasoglu

Designing for Beymen Blender Originated, graduated from Parsons School of Design and living in the incredibly beautiful Doğan Apt... All of these are already appealing :) but you should also take a glimpse into her closet...

She is the January guest of what I wore section in Vogue Turkey and immediately became my style crush. She loves Celine and Stella (who doesn't), each of her pieces is a design item on its own. And no need to mention her enviable accessories collection. So cool, reminds me of Sofia Coppola. Check Vogue for more.









And yet more to come, her beautiful house with Koray Birand made me start daydreaming in this cold boring workday :)

Finally we had our share of the snow this weekend :) Kartalkaya, the best winter getaway for those of us who live in Ankara. We should definitely repeat it, but after the winter-break, it would be sooo crowded next few weeks... xoxo
