On a walk yesterday, with unintentional matching outfits.
List of clothing:
+ The scarf was a gift from Adina a few years ago
+ The coat is vintage, from Myrorna
+ Vintage white slip
+ Thrifted stockings
+ The boots were a gift from Åsa four years ago
I’ve been busy studying for my environmental politics & history class so I haven’t been able to post much to the site or here. Will be finished with that some time today though. I’m having a white month too, no drinking for me for two more weeks. It’s been good, I’ve felt more productive and it’s nice to not be tired on the weekends.
My PRO account on Flickr is expiring today but will be back in a few days when the bank transaction goes through so the Everything I Own Project will be back online then.
I collect vintage nightgowns a little bit, I have: white, light blue, light lilac. The rest I sold off and am looking for more extravagant ones I guess. I am now in Jönköping and just have to say that I love my dad so much for helping me out even though he’s hard working himself!! This is me & my flatmate Kristina yesterday, we took some ~serious~ life expectancy test and revealed our results by writing the age in our foreheads and walked around the apartment proudly. Sadly I don’t have the link for the test, I wish I had since I will live so long according to it!
I’m going to Jönköping today to do boring accounting things, and to study and visit Becka & Josef & Miranda. Back in Göteborg wednesday I think.
You should all come to Stödspelning för Djurens befrielse. It’s at Underjorden on Friday, Vicious Irene are playing, though I might miss out on that since I will be stamping new arrivals and cooking food,
+ I made this banner, use it to link to my site if you want to! Sorry I can’t make boxes with the html, don’t know how.
+ I’m watching Mia & Klara, waiting for my darling Adina to arrive! I haven’t seen her since June which is terribly long.
+ Listened through all the episodes of Klotet on sr.se, would recommend everyone to do the same!
+ Had a great weekend, forgot to update here though! Took some pictures of dresses I will add as soon as possible.
I think that 10-50s childrens’ and youth books can be absolutely adorable and fascinating! Also they often have amazing illustrations, and are generally just really neglected. So I decided that I would add some to my site, and hope that other people than I appreciate them too. Especially the “girls’” books I like, they can be so distant from my growing up it’s unbelievable, (and for that I am thankful). I’ve added some tonight and will add the rest tomorrow. The brown ones with black prints are really old, the oldest is from 1912 , 97 years ago.
*****SPAM***** Nail fungus infection is not a choice of yours.
I don’t know where I got the picture, sorry!
1) I get about 50-100 spam messages/day, they’re marked as spam like above, but go straight to my inbox . My mail program has also started marking messages from my own site as spam, so I can’t auto delete them or I won’t get your messages to me either. So if you’ve emailed me a question directly from the site and I haven’t replied in about a day or two, consider it lost in the spam-floodage and email me again. I never ignore on purpose!
3) I was talking earlier with my flatmate about how poeple seem generally interested in my projects in real life but on the blog there are never any comments. What would make you comment more? I know I’m quite bad myself at commenting blogs I read but I don’t really know why.
Here’s an inspirational video about growing food in your gardens. (found on http://transitionculture.org/ which is a great site!)
According to the newest issue of Camino magazine, the gardens of Sweden could if they were used for growing plants, support half the population with local grown, vegan food. I’m still waiting for my landlords permission to have a place in our garden where I could grow things.
i'm Karin, I'm 23 & live in Göteborg in Sweden. (grew up in Jönköping.) I run an online vintage shop called Lily of the Valley.
I like antique things, I buy way too many books with the last cash I own, I am interested in body modification, art, knowledge and Frej. I am a vegan and pretty involved in environmental issues. I've studied human ecology and CSR, going on to environmental revisioning this fall..
The first time you comment here, I will have to approve the comment, after that it will get published instantly. It's just a precaution since I get a lot of spam comments.
