stockholm in the summertime

Photobucket

I'm convinced the Swedes are geniuses when it comes to designing simplicity. Ikea, Volvo, Absolut vodka (I actually looked this one up), and now Acne Jeans. I'm a hugeeeee fan of the summer collection, especially with their T-shirt-esque dresses. I loved this dress in particular (called 'Belle') because it looks so demure in the front and is completely backless.

I had to wear a tube top underneath because I don't think my work would have been too happy to see my bra + backside exposed to clients.

  2. I love the dress and I love the Swedes. Once the dollar gets stronger (will that ever happen?) I'm going to make a pilgrimage to Sweden and visit the very first Ikea, H&M, and then buy a pair of Acne Jeans and Cheap Mondays!

    Yes, how have we not run into each other yet?!?!

  3. Ooh, I like it!
    Acne Jeans is such a weird name. It looks so much like Acme at first glance, then it's got that gross association. Am I wrong?

  4. Your description of the dress reminds me of a mullet - business in the front, party in the back! ;) haha. The Swedes indeed are a bunch of geniuses <3

  7. This dress is great, I wish I could wear something like that but I don't think I could (too cuvry. ACNE jeans company has a magazine, it's really well done, I think you would really enjoy it.

    Ps: Yes I have heard of Tobias Wong, great designer really admire his work.

  9. Acne is such a great brand. Their store in Paris is in le Palais Royal and it's so so lovely. I think I'm in love with their dresses as well, the floral one we saw on lots of blog is definitely flawless.
