font-size: large;">I have been doing a little post-Xmas shopping with some spare gift cards, and came across a little mesh number on Nelly.com (above) that took straight me back to 2003. &nbsp;No really: this was the last time I owned a "mesh" (aka fishnet) shirt. In nude. Don't ask me why. Anyway, since I had a vague memory of reading "mesh" and "spring 2012 trend" in the same sentence –– which at the time made me shudder like when I first heard that denim-on-denim was making a comeback in SS10 –– I decided to do a little Google reconnaissance to figure out just how this bad boy was being styled on the runway scene.&nbsp;</span><br /> <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="432" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Dd_SwSkvfsA/Tvp-xPG_wjI/AAAAAAAAEBw/qv2mKR2gsBE/s640/spring+2012+mesh+trend+macqueen+vera+wang+rag+and+bone+jil+sander.jpg" width="640" /></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><i>(L to R) Alexander McQueen; Vera Wang; Jil Sander; Rag and Bone (SS12 RTW)</i></td></tr> </tbody></table> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Much to my reli</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">ef, the word "mesh" is being used loosely, and seems to encompass everything from sensibly sporty incarnations, to more loose, waffly knits. However, when it came to your basic white mesh tank, which is what inspired this whole endeavor, I could only find one runway inspiration (c. 2011); and I have to say, it was not pretty.&nbsp;</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Offender? Isabel Marant. I love Isbabel Marant. &nbsp;I <i>hated</i>&nbsp;this look. &nbsp;It reminded me of a rave-themed high school dance I went to in the early 2000's. It was a Much Music Video Dance. There were glowsticks. <i>In our mouths.&nbsp;</i></span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><i><br /></i></span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Then, who should I stumble across? Only the ever chic and street style-savvy celeb, Kate Bosworth. &nbsp;I don't know if there are any other KB fans in the crowd, but I have to admit to a serious girl crush (Blue Crush?) on the actress...not to mention a slightly more hetero crush on her now-ex Alexander Skarsgard...yowza! &nbsp;I am certainly not the only guilty party, however, since both her flawless style and golden mane appear to have taken the blog scene by storm (is it just me, or is she the hair idol of every blond bombshell you know?) &nbsp;</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">And the true sign of her style savvy? She knows how to translate even the most disconcerting runway look to the street. &nbsp;In other words, she found a way to rock Marant's mesh tank without looking 50% topless. Take note ladies.</span><br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <img border="0" height="552" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-y5cK09wpyV0/Tvp7n73Z26I/AAAAAAAAEBQ/hA-Rk_zB3xc/s640/kate+bosworth+trend+street+style+hair+mesh+skarsgard.jpg" width="640" /></div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Needless to say, I decided to take the (inexpensive) plunge, and scooped a white mesh tank to rock à la Kate come springtime. &nbsp;If you feel so-inclined to join, you can find the goods right <a href="http://nelly.com/dk/t%C3%B8j-til-kvinder/t%C3%B8j/toppe/jeane-blush-396/eula-top-396225-78/" target="_blank">&nbsp;here </a>. &nbsp;But please, <i>please</i>...leave the glowsticks at home.</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;

Suk.)</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">In other news, I thought I would share the above snap of some of my go-to accessories of late. Since last we met, I have officially reverted back to being a watch-wearer (aka: for the first time since high school, I can provide the time without the aid of a mobile device...luxe!). &nbsp;My weapon of choice is a gold Michael Kors watch (no gold Rolex, but a girl can dream!) - it was actually my Xmas gift to myself last year, and was awaiting me at 499 when I visited Canada in the summer (thanks again to my Kim-bones/her Grandparents americana P.O. box!). &nbsp;The necklace was a fab vintage find made my big bro's girlfriend, and lucky for me Ro decided it fit me to a T - lady has good taste ;) &nbsp;The glasses I actually won in a contest from Lensway.dk, and since I was picking out a pair of gratis lenses (#4 in my ever-expanding collection), I thought I would get a statement pair. &nbsp;Unsurprisingly, they have become my main frames of the season (even if they do kind of make me look like my Dad in the 70's...)</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;

While I have nothing against the concept of the Julefrokost––let's face it, there really is no such thing as too many Xmas parties––my body does not seem to agree with me on this point. &nbsp;The booze, the meat (on meat, on meat...), and the constant barrage of desserts means one thing: your body will be in serious, <i>serious</i>&nbsp;need of detox come January.</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Regardless of your own approach to post-holiday recovery (juice cleanse? nothing but salad until doomsday?....sobriety?), you can start doing some damage control re: the side effects of the yearly bodily abuse now...sans extreme measures. &nbsp;I don't know about you, but when I treat my body like crap, it likes to take it out on my face. &nbsp;While there exists a race of perfectly porcelain faces that seem to be immune to this, your skin is a major player in expelling many of the toxins you ingest, hence why some of the major side effects of holiday partying can range from dull skin to serious breakouts. &nbsp;The fix? &nbsp;Bentonite clay (read: luxurious, fabulous, inexpensive<i>&nbsp;dirt</i>.)</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Aside from the general faux-spa appeal of clay masks, Bentonite masks are particularly fab for purifying and healing the skin. &nbsp;According to those more scientifically-inclined than myself, the clay becomes electromagnetically charged when mixed with water, and thus acts like a magnet to draw out impurities and toxins from the skin (which are then washed away with the clay). &nbsp;Whether or not this is legit, it <i>does</i>&nbsp;seem to work on blackheads...so close enough in my books. &nbsp;</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">There are a number of different <a href="http://feelgoodstyle.com/2011/08/09/how-to-use-bentonite-clay-masks-for-beautiful-glowing-skin/2/" target="_blank">&nbsp;recipes </a>, but I do a simple combo of 1 Tbsp. <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004BRWZKG" target="_blank">&nbsp;Bentonite </a>&nbsp;with 1 Tbsp. Apple cider vinegar (water is fine too, but I find the vinegar adds an extra oomph to the affair). Mix into a thick paste with either a plastic or wooden spoon––metal messes up the electromagnetic mojo––adding extra liquid if the mixture is too chunky. &nbsp;Apply the paste all over your pre-washed and damp face/neck, and chill out for 10-15 minutes. &nbsp;When it starts to dry and pull around the edges, thoroughly rinse away the clay, and go on to apply your usual products (serums, etc.), topped off with a healthy dose of moisturizer –– Bentonite is drying, so load up ladies!</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;

font-size: large;">The SS12 season brings in a wave (literally) of luxe silk prints, light knits, and the to-be-expected loose silhouettes that typified the original graphic prints. &nbsp;The first collection, BLACK SHELL, is a more mature interpretation of the brand, including a jacquard sweater featuring the 5preview eiffel tower print, and a parade of black staple pieces. &nbsp;BATHYSPHERE, which is inspired by classic ballerina-wear, boasts light throw-on-and-go pieces that can be dressed up or down. &nbsp;The last collection - and my personal fav - is called SEA BREEZE, and is inspired by the ocean and all things summer. &nbsp;This collection features breezy silk prints, loads of beach cover-up potential, and enough navy to satisfy...well, me. (Navy is my black, after all.) &nbsp;I already have my eye on <strike>a couple</strike>&nbsp;more than a couple pieces that are welcome to come and live in my closet come springtime...</span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-size: large;">Yesterday evening was the opening night for the Stine Goya X Henrik Vibskov Lagersalg at Lynfabrikken in Aarhus. C &amp; I headed down to the café for chats and chai, before heading out into the street to find....a line-up waaay down the block that had appeared in the 30min. since we had wandered by. &nbsp;Probably should have seen it coming, but hey - I'd take a warm soy chai over loitering on Vestergade any day ;) &nbsp;We ended up wiling away the next hour in line (which felt a bit extreme, since neither of us had plans to shop amok), which was at least running past a couple cool art galleries.&nbsp;</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Once we (finally) got out of the cold, we were confronted by the same old scene: tossled tables of goods, literal <i>piles</i>&nbsp;of knotted clothing on the ground, and more clothing racks jammed into one room than in Anna Wintour's closet (...okay, that might be an exaggeration, given that I have never actually seen the inside of her closet. But you get the idea). &nbsp;There were loads of pieces from warm weather collections past, with the Stine Goya racks boasting pastels and neutrals, while the piles of Henrik Vibskov printed tees, pants and tunics looked like a primary paint store had exploded on the table (in only the best way). &nbsp;While the prices were more than reasonable considering the hefty amounts that are usually associated with these über-popular Danish brands, neither of us got swept up in the buzz, and we walked out with just a little something-something each... </span><br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <img border="0" height="640" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QqpbiYyceRM/TuuIsa5gq9I/AAAAAAAAD3o/21PDUCqf6vE/s640/stine+goya+henrik+vibskov+lagersalg.jpg" width="640" /></div> <br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I know...I've changed. (Actually, I've just temporarily replaced impulse clothing &nbsp;buys with a mild interior design obsession - but luckily, unlike jeans, there really is such thing as too many tables). But if any of you are in the hood, and itching to empty you bank account, stop by the sale (ending tomorrow, details <a href="http://canadieren.blogspot.com/2011/12/henrik-vibskov-stine-goya.html" target="_blank">&nbsp;here </a>). &nbsp;So that you budget accordingly, I took a few quick snaps of the price lists:&nbsp;

Ikat is one of the must-have prints that is topping the trend list once again, punctuating the runways from Thakoon, to L.A.M.B., to Burberry Prorsum. &nbsp;All of this means just one thing for the discerning (and budget savvy) fashionista: scoop those 2011 pieces on sale. <i>Now</i>. &nbsp;I found this pair of perfectly bright Ikat print shorts on <a href="http://nelly.com/" target="_blank">&nbsp;Nelly.com </a>:</span><br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yhxekryetOo/TvJLl_TKZAI/AAAAAAAAD78/Z5dZjA1DaOo/s640/ikat+tribal+print+trend+ss12+canadieren+antiqua+rodni.jpg" width="640" /></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><i>Antigua Shorts, Nelly.com, 135kr.</i></td></tr> </tbody></table> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tlmBdE6-e_w/TvJLtxc6AhI/AAAAAAAAD8E/pMesFjvmpcc/s640/ikat+tribal+print+trend+ss12+canadieren.jpg" width="640" /></div> <br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I have long had a special place for Ikat in my heart, but never came across an incarnation of the trend that really fit my style. This über-bright print, however, managed to snap me out of the cloudy-grey-winter-blah that has descended over Denmark, and that was it - they had to be mine (...slash, for that price, how could I not??). My fav detail is the delicate gold threading that accents the wild brights - it is the perfect understatement on an otherwise very, <i>very</i> loud print.</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222;

Luckily for me (and homicidal for my bank account), the Henrik Vibskov + Stine Goya lagersalg is rolling in to town on Wednesday, and even taking up residence at one of my fav haunts: <a href="http://www.lynfabrikken.dk/" target="_blank">&nbsp;LYNfabrikken </a>. &nbsp;Naturally, I have already penciled in a chai latte + shopping date with C on the first day of the sale, followed by a Middle Eastern-themed Christmas party with some lovely colleagues...jeg&nbsp;glæder&nbsp;mig!</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;

WITHOUT supervision.) &nbsp;And, most importantly, I am officially back on the grid:&nbsp;in the name of Christ's Day (and possibly every birthday until I'm 30..),&nbsp;my generally fantastic parents&nbsp;kicked in a serious donation to my Macbook-Air-is-my-soulmate fund - and we have been in a whirlwind romance ever since....Tuesday.</span><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;
