I recently realised that I haven’t posted all the images from our trip to Scotland last year. I guess I had plans to post them just before the the second trip but forgot about it when it was postponed. One thing I’ll be advocating for on that trip is to visit as many castles as possible. Scotland has […]

I’m a big Kate Winslet fan so when I saw the posters for The Dressmaker I knew I had to see it. What I thought was a typical drama set in the 50s turned out to be something quit different. The movie was full of surprises and it managed something quit difficult, to be sad and funny at the […]

I have this weird things with parks, I rarely visit the ones close to where I live but when I travel they’re usually in my top places to visit. I’m not particularly outdoorsy (I’m trying to change that though) and I’ve never been on a beach holiday so most of my travels are to cities. As […]

It’s funny how one’s style evolves. Ever since that red coat, I’ve been reconsidering things that I would have never worn 5 years ago. I’m pretty much the same size, live in the same city and still consider comfort to be paramount when choosing clothes but my relationship with clothes has changed a bit. I’ve […]

2016 has been declared as the year of the scarves. My brother got one for his birthday (well, more like 3 months after) and I’m still working on my seed stitch peach dream. I’ve now finally finished one I crocheted for my friend Laura. Ehum, her birthday was in May. To my defence this summer was […]

Oh may goodness, another year has passed! On one hand it feels like it wasn’t that long ago I was freaking out about that first blog post, on the other hand it feels like years since my second anniversary post. I guess it’s been a transformative year! Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about self […]

It’s been a long time since I bought a pair of earrings. With the exception of silver studs, I make most of my earrings myself. I can’t recall how it all started but I remember really getting into jewellery making when I lived in Copenhagen many years ago. So when I was making research for my […]

I might have missed the cherry blossom season in Tokyo but I arrived just in time for hydrangeas.I saw them everywhere in Tokyo; in the well kept gardens, next to train tracks, on the balconies of skyscrapers and other unexpected places. I couldn’t stop taking pictures of them and I probably looked quit silly doing it. I got a curious […]

During easter I headed to London for an extended weekend trip. I have a friend that I had been promising to visit for years but I also wanted to get reacquainted with this metropolitan city. The last visit was probably 10 years ago! I went without a detailed plan, I knew I wanted to go to a […]

Ok, so I might be misusing that word, adventure. I didn’t do any extensive hiking, visit a remote village or anything like it, I was technically on a city vacation. Yet an adventure it was! It was one of those life altering, confidence boosting and really inspiring trips. Not only was it the first time I […]

One dream of mine is to one day be in Japan during the cherry blossom season. There’s just something magical about flower covered trees as far as the eye can see. While parks with cherry trees can be found in other countries, even in northern places like Stockholm, I was surprised to hear we had […]

One day on our Scottish adventure we decided to get out of the Edinburgh and see more of the neighbouring region. We set our course towards North Berwick as it was on the coast and only a short train ride away. What we found was a very cozy and quiet town. It felt like we were the only tourists there when […]

I love finding treasures at second hand and vintage shops. Lately I’ve even found garments even though some of the best finds I’ve found while looking for something completely different. I’ve also stumbled upon a garment that I didn’t know I needed until recently, the silk knit top. I found one not long ago that I’ve used […]
