Dying trends on sale

Summersale have started around the world, and the first to go was the pastels!
Spring is always the season to aquire pastel clothing, but this year it was booming so hard, you saw it everywhere! But as all trends, it's dying and in fashion that means it goes on clearance, haha. So I snatched some things up!

I've been gawking the varsity jacket and skirt for so long, and now they finally got on 50% clearance!

Cute tops, something I really lack. I like that they're sleeveless! I always wear a cardigan, and tops without sleeves means I won't boil during the summer!

Not a sales find, but look at the colors of the stones! It's a barrette, and I guess it's part of my "spice up the hair"-project.

Varsity Jacket and skirt: Gina Tricot - Flower Top: Cubus - Mint top: Lindex - Barrette: H&M

Recent snaps

Uh, long time no update! I got a cluster of different personal problems, ranging from disappointments to medical emergencies(nothing too serious), so I've been on bed rest / just not really up to anything lately. I'm still feeling rather shitty, and I just caught a cold to top it off, haha. Why do bad things always come in clusters?

In the meantime here are some snaps from the last two weeks. I hope I'll be back on the horse soon.

My mother came down to care for me, and I got this bag as a get well present! And for Midsummer I tried to gussy up.

For entertainment I've read lula and crocheted roses.

Snap from my desk, and my best friend Gerard! //dork

Galaxy nails and outfit

My computer started working again! Woo! I'm running it without the battery though, but nevermind, it works! And I even accidentally stepped on it just a couple of minutes ago, and it works! What? What kind of sorcery is this?

I have lots of things to post, mainly buys(all shops are walking distance!), but some other things too!
I'm kind of in a crunch right now though, I desperatly need to get to the shops before they close! I had forgotten how cold swedish summer is, so I need to go see if they have any cardigans from winter that they're trying to get rid of for super cheap haha~

But anyway, here's what I wore the other day when I went out for some retail therapy with my friend. I tried to make that nekomimi hair that's been showing up everywhere recently. And, I cut bangs! I had a really tough day, and well, somehow I always end up cutting bangs.

Dress: H&M Cardigan: Cubus

And I've slowly gotten back into doing nail things. I tried out galaxy nails , which was surprisingly easy! It's my first try though, so of course they aren't "Omg it's like GALAXIES. ON YO NAILS!!", but with some practise, maybe?

Oh, and as you may or may not have noticed, I added a little instagram widget to the right! If you feel like following it, please do :D I abuse it a little too much though, but there's lots of kitty pictures and trinkets.

Things of lately

Been quiet! But then again, I moved, and I have to get to know the people I live with now, right? Nah, just kidding, the guy helped me get sims3 working on my computer and I've really unsocial haha.

Right now my computer is in a pan filled with rice, cats woke me up this morning by tipping my glass over.. Eh, yeah, let's hope it'll turn on later. It was mainly the battery that got water on it, so..

Anyway, last weekend we went to karaoke + a stand up comedy festival! Surprisingly fun! Here's a few phone pictures!
(updating from my phone, but if my laptop works I'll be back shortly with pictures of recent buys and stuff)

A day in "town"

Today we went into town! Keep in mind "going into town" means traveling for an hour, haha. It was really nice, summer have finally come up here, so I unpacked a specially summery dress just for the hell of it! The town in question is really small, and thus there's nothing really to do there, but it's still more things to do and see than in our yard.. I guess!


I got to eat sushi for the first time since I came back to Sweden! A newly opened restaurant became the first restaurant in this municipality to offer sushi (and other japanese dishes).. Unfortunatly it.. wasn't really good. It's not that I'm spoiled by japanese sushi, because I've always prefered western styled, simply because they are just that, westernized. Lot's of salmon, "easy on the eye/mind"-pieces, and less brown-gunky-goo on top of rice. But this? Nah. But I'm giving the place the benefit of the doubt, they were just opened, we went during lunch time, and I'm kind of assuming the person doing them wasn't schooled in it.

It looked kinda pretty though, right? Btw, chives? And rom? On salmon? Huh?

Best thing of the entire day was without a douuuubbbt, the flamingo scarf!! I've been eyeing it for quite some time now, but today I finally had the money on hand to buy it! I grabbed it and ran! .. I payed inbetween those two actions though, of course. But seriously, it's so awesome! This is just a preview of the pattern (flamingos!!), I'll probably wear it alot.. It's really lightweight and soft, and Swedish summer can be quite cold, so I like to have a scarf along with me, haha.

One flamingo, two flamingo, a scarf full of flamingo!

 I totally forgot to take any outfit pictures today though, I had to rush from the minute I woke up, going somewhere with people ages 50+ means going at 09.00, no matter what. What's up with that? Haha, they didn't even have plans for the day, but it was really important that we got out of the house by 9! Oh anyway, but I did take a detail picture of the dress, I think the pattern is really lovely! Lightweight chiffon ftw!

 

And hey, Swede's, don't forget about Mothers Day!

Time for change

This weekend I visited my dad, and also finally had a chance to meet some of my relatives on his side! Most of them I hadn't seen for 4 years or more. One of my cousins was a baby last time I saw her, and now she was 6, and completely hyperactive.

Anyway, I don't know if I've really said anything about it, but I'm moving back to Uppsala!
It'll be nice to be out of the forest, haha! Being able to do stuff, meet people! Being able to text a friend and see if they wanna go out and take a coffee later that day, and not having to travel for 10 hours..

In honor of my second movingawayfrom home day, I'll post some pictures of my current room.  Or well, details of it.

 My Angel's Tears! I love this plant so much, everytime I look at it I wish I was 5cms tall and  able to live in it.

 My pins and brooches! The box itself isn't so visible, but it's a souvenir from Gran Canaria or something that I got when I was 6, from some friends of my mother. It's covered in shells!

 Shirts I hardly ever wear but refuse to get rid off.

 Mirror, part of my bag hanger, some hair accessories. And yes, my mirror is indeed wearing an apron.

 Skirts and dresses! I don't really know why I let some skirts hang on hangers and some be folded, but, oh well.

And that was that. I'll try and get my things in order this week. Moving is always troublesome, but I don't really wanna bring much, so it'll be even harder trying to sort out what to bring and what not to.

Good old platforms

Gwuahh! I was looking through my old stuff today, trying to sort things to donate/sell/throw away/keep, and I found my old platforms!
I bought them when I was 12-13ish I think, and I remember being so happy about them! I wore them everyday for about 3 years haha. It's a wonder they're still intact, but they've been on regular visits to the cobbler, I did my best to take care of them.

After I found them we we're going to town, so I decided to take some matching clothes. Unfortunatly I still suck at this whole outfit-picture-thingamajig (it was so much easier when I had other people to take them for me!), but the dress I'm wearing is the pink/black heart dress I posted about the other day~

Oh be still my heart!

My cold has finally ceased it's hold of me, but before it was even over I managed to wake up to a crick in the neck. Usually it goes away by itself in a couple of hours, but I've had it for 4 days now! I'm starting to fear I'll live my life like Kermit from now on.. You know, having to turn my entire torso, because I HAVE NO NECK.
Do anyone of you have any home remedies?
I've tried hot showers, massage, heatpacks, more massage, painkillers, even threats(!), but nothing seems to work :(
