I can tell you for sure that Anna and Jani, the queens of L and I,  are dressed in items from the shop from their heads to their toes.

Anna is dressed in a skirt/top from the Spanish brand Hoss Intropia, Italian Nolita jeans and black suede wedge heels from Mentor Footwear. Very international! While Jani is going for the Scandinavian brands, t-shirt from acne in a beautiful washed-out raspberry colour, jeans from Gestuz, plexiglas bracelet from Cornelia, headphones from Urbanears and a phone-pouch from Nué Notes. Pretty and hardworking girls that puts their hearts and souls in to L and I because they really believe in creativity. Can you see their halos of creativity?

I'm proud to be working with these beautiful girls, today we'll rock the L and I-boat and show you what we have got. The question is though: Will you come to L and I and experience this magic Saturday along with us?

Lose your mind.
Find your soul.
This Fall, At L and I.

What else can I say? Nothing really, they are here to rule the streets of Malmö. Well I probably need to say a few more words. The Acne shoes Hybria Lea are HERE, finally.

Ok a little bit more, but that's the only sentence that is repeating in my head right now. "Ance - Hybria Lea are in the shop, Ance - Hybria Lea are in the shop, Ance - Hybria Lea are in the shop, Ance - Hybria Lea are in the shop, Ance - Hybria Lea are in the shop, Ance - Hybria Lea are in the shop" over and over again. Well I'm in love.

This is the description from Acne's home page: "High leather wedge ankle boot with mohawk tail detail. Built on a tall sculpted wedge, Hybria features a leather upper with a round and chunky toe, exposed inner ankle zip closure, D-ring detailed outer side shaft and a mohawk inspired center back seam allowance. Soles are in leather."

Wedge Height Back 12.5(!)cm
Wedge Height Front 4 cm
100% Cow Leather

Stand out in a any crowd with these leg lengthening ankle wedges.

The heading of the article was "Is this the next accessories trend?" To give them the right answer to the question I will say "YES it is, everyone is asking for them at L and I". Who said eco-fashion lacks colour? Well, at least not if Tie-Ups are anything to go by. These bright and colourful belts have recently taken over the fashion markets. And both the environmentalists and the fashionistas have no reason to complain.

The Tie-Up Belts are created and designed in Italy, they are colourful belts in a new material made out of a mix of rubber and plastic (I love the scent they have). The belts are antibacterial/antimicrobial, UV protected, fade resistant, water resistant, hypoallergenic and 100% recyclable. They do not contain any metallic so when you walk through the airport security you do not have to take it off. Another smart thing with the Tie-Up belts are that they get dirty you can take off the buckle and wash the belt in the washing machine. There are two different kinds, a thinner version and a thicker version (there are actually ones that are designed for children as well). The belts are sold along with a neath see-through plastic box, and there are at the moment 66 different colours available. A funny thing with the belts are that you can buy separate buckles in different colours to alternate the look of your belt. You can match it and light up any outfit...shorts, chinos, jeans or suit.

So, go ahead and try some colorful eco-fashion with a clear conscience.

Every Wednesday, Lina Sandberg, the fashion editor at Metro mode show us what is right to wear. I find the tings she shows very nice and the mix of tings are perfect. Some things might be expensive and some are cheap but she tend to pick things that are worth its price, by that I mean the things may cost a few pennies more but you get more for your money. This week I'm very satisfied as well because I love black and leather...just like Bottega Veneta. Both black and leather are very grateful to mix with other materials and colours!

So this week in Metro Mode, Lina picked a black suede skirt with leather details from Mads Norrgaard and my favourite leather vest with studs on from Rika.

Thank you Lina, check out her blog HERE

I hope that you are familiar with the brand Melissa plastic dreams that we carry at L and I. If not it's a Brazilian footwear label that makes their shoes in "smell-good" plastic, and it's not any scent...do you remember those rubbers that all kids collected and the smelled amazing? That's exactly the scent, and it newer goes out. I've had my Vivienne Westwood+Melissa boots for over a year and I still smell them every day. They are also very practical since they are made out of plastic so you will never have to bother about rainy days. Melissa is best known for its collaboration with Vivienne Westwood (we have their boots in the shop...and soon we will get more colours).

When I browsed The Satorialist the other day I saw a girl in shoes from Melissa, that's fun to discover! By the way The Satorialist was selected as one of the Time Magazine's Top 100 Design Influences.

You should check out his blog and check out the beautuful girl in Melissa shoes, it was posted on Thursday, August 26, 2010 and taken on Eighth St., New York

Lina Sandberg from Metromode showed them last week and I wrote about it, check it out HERE
