I never knew that Jessica Simpson created comfortable shoes, apparently she does.Norwegian street fashion site Oslostil featured this woman in early June and I wanted to revisit because of the veritable kaleidoscope of fashion she brings with what she wears. She starts out with a Norwegian accessories designer, moves on to Swedish designer Gina Tricot and then goes American with Jessica Simpson. Talk about eclectic. Here’s what she says about her ensemble on Oslostil:
My bag is by the Norwegian brand Cala&Jade, my dress is Gina Tricot, the cardigan is from Oasis, and my very comfy shoes are by Jessica Simpson.

She didn’t wear it for some sort of parade, she didn’t wear it to grab attention (though the jury may be out on that) she just wore it just for the fun of it. Many of the items on her could be found in random stores like H & M. There’s something to be said about the creativity behind a fashion on the streets.

Is it casual or is it a dress made up for a special occasion. Dresses like this straddle the realm between both places. It’s hard to decide. But we’re happy that Oslostil highlights it for all to see. The wearer, Gunn Helen, says this:
Shoes from Les Prairies, skirt – Isabel Marant, tee – Armani, skarf from Dries Van Noten, bracelet from Bottega Veneta and sunglasses from Chloe.

There are reasons why I love reading Oslostil. This street pic is one of them:

You glean so many ideas. A good example are the sandals and the leggings. Simply marvelous. Summer’s not over yet, pulling this out from the bag of tricks seem wholly appropo.
Here’s what the wearer (Mariann) has to say:
I’m wearing a leather jacket from Nina Jarebrink Of Sweden. The purse is from Adox and the shoes are from Vagabond. My jeans are Lee and I bought my t-shirt at a marked. I got the jewelry from a friend and it’s originally from Asia, and the sunglasses are Tom Ford.

The hat, shorts, bracelets and the purse are by H&M. My tights are from Cubus and I bought my shoes at DinSko. I think my tunic is from some place in Asia.

There’s nothing more put together than a woman who throws it all together with talmudic efficiency. That’s Maria in Norway. She tells Oslostil that: My jacket is from Bruuns Bazaar and the gloves are from Filippa K. The shoes are from Bianco, and I reckon my style is nice and proper.

“I bought my cute boots somewhere at Grünerløkka, the coat, beanie and tights are H&M, and the scarf was bought in France. I don’t care much about what people think of my style, as long as I feel comfortable and nice!”

Nevermind the wonderful ensemble, even though she put it together with the genius help of an H&M store. The luggage (to the right) and the Marc Jacobs purse says accessories have won the day. Where can we find the rolling luggage?
What she says:
I bought my beanie in London somewhere, the skirt and jacket is from H&M and my purse is Marc Jacobs.

“Jacket from Trabant in Markeveien, and shirt from Fretex, both second hand. Jeans from Nudie and shoes from Skotøihjørnet. My camera’s an old Contax with a Carl Zeiss 50 mm. I reckon my style is rather schizophrenic, and today I’m all Wall Street.”
