I was one of the bloggers invited to the preview event of the Evans Clements Ribeiro Swan Autumn/Winter collection last Thursday. I had a really great time chatting to my fellow bloggers and the lovely Evans ladies Carina and Claire, and of course we all were talking about the new items for coming season.
So ok, let me be honest.. I didn’t like the Clements Ribeiro Spring/Summer collection AT ALL. Ok that’s a lie, I did love the black Adele-dress, but it was way too long for my taste. But in general the collection was very far from what I like in clothes. All the prints and lengths reminded me of my grandma’s and their friends, and that put me off. I guess that’s how grandma’s dresses in the 80′s in Finland ;). This is just my opinion though, and I know that many other bloggers loved the range. Anyway, I was really eager to see the Autumn/Winter collection and if it would change my mind about Swan. And you know what, it kinda did! There was 6 pieces that I really loved, tops and dresses with beautiful lace details and contrast finishes. …And the gorgeous lacy pencil skirt. Instant love.
Here’s me trying on the skirt. It looks gorgeous, doesn’t it? Sadly the fit was a bit wrong in that sample, so I will have to go to try it on when the collection is in stores.
Some amazing Evans accessories and shoes for A/W. The boots with the steel detail will surely be mine!
Some accessories and shoes from Dorothy Perkins. GORGEOUS.
Haha, me being silly :D. But on a serious note, I will NEED those Evans earrings in my life!

The Clements Ribeiro Swan collection hits the Evans stores and online next weekend, will you be shopping? Which items are your favourites?
oh you look so pretty!!! There seem to be a few nice pieces – think i may have to invest in a top or cardi! Glad all you ladies had a great time! <3
Thank you lovely lady :)! Yeah the cardi’s were quite nice! xx
I didn’t really like the first collection either, but from the pictures I’ve seen so far of this one, there seems to be some nice things. I am loving the look of the accessories!!
OMG, that lace skirt is freaking gorgeous. I’m kind of dying over it, lol! :D And you look gorgeous in your studded dress! I love how you paired it with a denim vest and studded flats, it’s a kick-ass look!
Yeah I totally want the lace skirt.. maybe someday I’ll be able to afford it ;). Thank you for the nice comments, I LOVE this dress to bits! xx
