Today I met with the gorgeous cover star of my book, Gitte Lee. We had a quick tea in the beautiful lobby of my hotel The Corinthia and then headed to Sloane Square for a glass of Prosecco. I haven't seen Gitte since we met two years ago, so I was especially excited to give her a copy of The Advanced Style book. I'm always a little anxious when showing the book to the Advanced Style ladies, so I was thrilled when Gitte told me that she's going to take the book all around the world and boast that she is on the cover!
Where have you been ...

This weekend my younger sister had her prom, and i was pretty excited because of her. She was wearing cute floral dress with ballet flats, which is totally appropriate for a girl her age (14) and i really loved the final look. I had a role of stylists of course and a hairdresser too!My lovely friend Olja did a make up, and she was ready in a snap! ;) I will show you a photo in one of the future posts!
Let`s talk about my outfit now! ;) Yesterday, i wore this beautiful white dress which i got thanks to Queen`s wardrobe (be sure to check their website, they have totally cute clothes). I paired it with Draga bracelets and headband in green/turquoise color (this was also a gift). And i got the perfect look to match with the bruise on my knee! I could make it disappear but who cares about a purple knee dot! ;)
Hope you will like the whole look!
Have a nice day!

Advanced Style Book Signing Tour in Europe
Thursday, May 31, 2012 Posted by okele at 9:42 AM 0 comments
The greatest thing about releasing The Advanced Style Book has been receiving all of the wonderful responses from everyone. I started the project in the spirit of my wonderful grandmothers. I am so happy that the Advanced Style Ladies can inspire us all to live life to the fullest.
This Sunday I am leaving for London for a book signing tour. The House of Fraser has kindly invited me to sign copies of the Advanced Style book in the Mary Portas Shop of two of their London locations. I can't wait to see all the ladies I have photographed in London and meet some wonderful new ones. Check out my European book tour below. Hope to see you there!

Monday had hysterically mood swings, probably worst then woman before her cycle, cold and warm, rain and storm, and at the end of the day, we had chance to see the perfect sunset above the river. ;)
Luckily, i was with these two lovely ladies Branislava and Jovana, so we survived somehow! Bruschetti, pasta, tiramisu, viva Italia! Perfect match for me, i even got my zebra shot! ;)
Huge thanks to Brana for these lovely photos!
