34. Print this out and put it near your working space...read when creativity is fading =)))
At least that's what I'll do...Don't know about you, but I always feel more creative and dare to do things in spring/summer and beginning of autumn. It feels like dark and cold weather just suck out my energy and desire to do things!
Every year it is the same and I'm trying to change that, I am noticing progress, though there's a huge difference when sun and summer arrive...
OMG!!! I've been (kind of) obsessed with arrows lately! Seen them as bracelets (here) and as a necklace (here)....and now...I have to have an arrow of some kind =))) Found this ring at carrooco.se and I'm strongly considering of clicking it home....think I'll wear it every day!!! =)

I'm not such a huge fan of grey...was, but that feeling faded away =). Here is a top that changed my mind. I like that is grey, but has an Native Amercian/Hippie/Bohemian touch as the fringe, and I get an...here we go again....Isabel Marant feel over it! So it can be styled and matched in any way you want!
If it belonged to my closet...this is how I would match it!
Feeling better than yesterday and could go to work, thankfully!! =) Though, now, I have a different pain...slipped from a pair of stairs on the ice, and now I can't feel the left side from my behind and below (aouch)....awful!! Hope the pain goes over soon! =)
We've all seen the metallic cuffs in silver/gold that are used as hair decoration.Those may be perfect for the ones that are drawn to the metallic / minimalist trend and style...and that's something that hasn't cought my eye since is not my style.
These are perfect, they feel more bohemian, with etno vibes, and they do fit my personal style more.
What do you think ?!? Are they a better alternative ?!?
After a year of long search I finally have a sheer, fringed cardigan and I am completely and absolutely in love with it!
I've wanted one like this since I saw them in Topshop, but until I decided I was going to get one they were sold out (as usual)...this one is from BikBok!
A late Christmas & New Year's present from me to me, because I'm worth it! Can't wait to start stirring up some outfits with it! =)
1. H&M; 2. SecondHand; 3. My dad's old shirt (Club77); 4. H&M (men's department); 5. Monki
Pattern is always good to have in your closet! It can spice up any outfit and make your day more fun and colorful (especially in the winter). Patterned was not a "word" in my closet couple of years ago, but now it's something I think about and use often!
One thing I like and find challenging is mixing and matching patterns! The key is to find the right colours of the patterns, or have one colour that will be the "red-thread" in the outfit! Try it...it works! =)
Checked out stlebytyra.se the other day and saw that they have a lot of news in the jewellery section! These are the ones I fell for the most! Silver and turquoise are a perfect marriage if you ask me, I like the cross bangle a lot and my search for a triangle pendant necklace is over!
All of these are already on my s/s 12 wishlist! =)
A set of antique gold bangles moved in to my jewellery box! My b'friend showes me this web-shop called dealextreme.com where you can find basically anything and there's where I found these (and another bracelet).
They are quite cheap as well, we ordered couple of things and it only cist us around 80 SEK! =)
One tip --- they have a good jewellery section! =)
I'm sick and tired of all this greyness and rain and cold...I'm always exhosted for no reason....too bad I don't have any sunny trips booked in the near future yet and I'm left to hope, that spring and sunny, warm weather comes soon this year! =)
Found this shirt with the lovely enbroidery at a random second hand shop the other day! Originally it's from Indiska and I bet it'll look 10 times cooler after I've ironed it first....but I just wanted to show it to you guys!
One more thing I've got stuck on, besides bell bottomed jeans, is the wide legged pant...prefferably in some cool pattern. Hadn't seen any pair that I like and that doesn't come from freepeople.com until yesterday, then I found these cool, patterned, wide-legged pants (picture below) from bubblerrom.se
Now the queastion is....should I order a pair to try it out...am I even going to wear as often as I think ?!?

1. I really,really,really want a brown, suede fringe jacket! It's my number one thing for this spring/summer =)
2. These bracelets are perfection! Big cravings!
3. Stone Cold Fox navajo shorts....be mine this summer!!!
4. I need a black cowboy belt!
5. Karen's beaded bracelets are amazing! Need to go on some open market soon...it would be the perfect place to find something similar...or...what do you think ?!?
6. Another thing I really really really want is a brown, fringe bag...dreaming abouth this one from Spelldesigns.com!!!
7. I love my brown cowboy boots that I bought from Nelly.com last spring....but I want a pair of black ones now! To get a pair this spring is the plan!
Tell me...what would you like to see more of / less of here ?!? What would be interesting for you to see that you haven't seen so far, or something that you would like to see more often ?!?
Please share your toughts and opinions with me...thay are very important to me!!! =)
I've always been the person who loves silver and will never go for gold, but lately, that has changed. I still love silver (always will), but have got some golden fever right now...have had it for a while, and I've piled up with jewelry (more antique gold....but still)...and here are some of my golden rings!
The only thing I bought on sale this year was this hat. Got it at Lindex for only 50 SEK! I absolutely love it, I've finally found the perfect hat...now I'm just hoping for calm, wind-less (?) days so I could wear it more often!
Though this is a fullfilled outfit, while I was out, I left the hat at home because of the strong wind today...but the sun rays through the windows sure did feel good!
Add a loose white/black tank top to all this and big, round shades and you have the perfect spring outfit for a brunch in town! This is exactly how I'll match the printed black jeans when (and if) I buy them...in a true Isabel Marant-style!
Since I saw this bag I'm dreaming about it....it's from Mango, apparently, and the lucky owner is Emma Elwin from emsedge....so beautiful! The perfect bag of all times, but it seems to be very hard to find since it's an older collection of Mango's.
If any of you has one and wants to sell it, or knows someone who's selling...please contact me!
The exam is done...that wasn't fun at all! It's not that it was hard...just too many definitions to memorise...now it's only to wait for the results, but I'm going to enjoy these couple of days that I have left before the new course starts!
You all know how much I liked (still do!) Isabel Marant's a/w 11 collection. Have had my eye on those "Renell" jeans with native patterns on the sides,that I blogged about here(<---click) but for my student economy that meant - keep dreaming....until, I found a budget version!!! Imagine the happinnes!!!
You'll find them at missguided.co.uk for a price of around 300 SEK! How amazing is that! As soon as my shop-stop is over (the end of january) I'm clicking a pair home! Ah can't wait!
I found this top in a random shop near the place where I live! The material is so soft and I love that it is sheer yet patterned! Perfect for the beach or hot summer days in town, paired with shorts and sandals!
I've been on the hunt for that perfect, white lace dress a while now. It has to be white, but not chalk white, more milky-cream white...with a lovely vintage feel and not the usual model that we see nowadays in the stores.
Sadly, my little "hunt" hasn't shown any results yet, but this girl looks like she has what I'm searching for! The white, lacy dream!
If any of you know where I can get this dress, or something similar to it....please let me know! =)
Today is Christmas eve for all of us who celebrate the Orthodox Christmas and I want to say Happy Christmas to all of you who will celebrate today and tomorrow, hope that you are surrounded with loved ones!

Time is flying by and I got a "wake up call" today! I have an exam in a week and it's time for me to stop fooling around (which is much easier said than done!) and start studying .
This dress from Vero Moda (via Nelly.com) came into my closet a while ago, but it needed to be shortened (too long for my taste) and in between school, work and Christmas, I kind of didn't have time for it! The other day, I sat with the b'friend and finished it! Now it has the perfect length and I just can't wait for summer so I can match it with wooden heels, round shades and a bunch of jewelry!
Nothing against high heels, the most amazing thing for making your legs look miles long and put the cherry on the top on every outfit, but I do love me a boot! Either an MC inspired or a cowboy one....any length or color, my little collection is growing and I love all of its members :)
My family really notices the small details! This is another gift I got from my parents! Native American inspired leggings in a soft, suede-like material with fringe!!! I absolutely love these!
Here they are! The boots you saw me wearing here, helping me complete a perfect Isabel Marant-inspired outfit!
These are a x-mas present from the b'friend who tought he would satisfy my obsession (of these boots) since I (apparently) wouldn't stop talking about them!
