Autumn fashion in Stockholm

Autumn fashion in Stockholm

Notice the mits on the model on the left. I'm glad her hands will be warm but what about the legs of the model on the right? I haven't seen anyone wearing skirts in Stockholm recently. I'm shivering at the thought. The model centre stage, on the other hand, does seem to have a look that I've spotted among the younger set - the close fitting jeans and long boots. An alternative to purchasing new jeans to keep up with this trend is to put rubber bands around your ankles thus achieving the same narrow jeans look. I kid you not. I discovered it observing fashionable travellers on the T-bana and then tried it out on a drafty train trip. In addition to it being trendy, it keeps the warm air around your legs. Tricky.
