During Copenhagen Fashion Week SS 2011, Danish Malene Birger did a rocky safari look, mixing army coloured dresses and burned brown-yellow tones with studded leather vests within her collection. I wasn't that into her version of the safari look, but the stripes and leather elements, her workwear pieces, and a long, pleated dress caught my eye.

My favourite pieces from her collection
Love the stripes, love the leather. If I was to revise the design, though, I would put less studs on the vest and pair it with a tighter and shorter skirt or something in denim, e.g. tight shorts. For an everyday look, one can do the vest with a striped shirt underneath, like here, and tug the shirt into skinny, blue jeans. Wear it with soft, feminine ballerina flats (Lanvin and Chanel make good ones), to make the look softer.
Great pants, cool jacket!
Am I the only one who’s thinking Stella McCartney F/W09?
Great look – except for the hat.
Cool workwear
