Worst attempt of a wishlist ever.

onsdag, oktober 12th, 2011

I have been a crappy blogger for sure these last few months, or even the entire year but I am planning (haha) to get better at it again! My 25th birthday is coming up real soon and I am trying hard to make a wish list, which is one of the hardest things I know. [...]

Some flea market findings from the last few days.

tisdag, augusti 9th, 2011

I got these fantastic boot/Converse/platform hybrids from the brand RAPPERS (gotta love that!) at Heden’s flea market this Saturday. They were 40 kronor, and I get pain in my ankles from the exercise of lifting them! I just realised you can’t tell from this angle but they have a pretty high platform and are heavy.

I [...]

Vintage anatomical posters.

måndag, maj 23rd, 2011

I’m a sucker for all things anatomical as I think you know from my collection of vintage medical books and whatnot, and here are some vintage school posters that are up for auction right now on tradera (swedish ebay, the seller doesn’t ship abroad though) and that I don’t have wall space enough to even [...]

Wholesome Concept

måndag, maj 2nd, 2011

I saw a girl in the may day demonstration with this totebag and thought it was grand, and I just found it on the internet, so now I’ve ordered something new for the first time in ages & ages. The store selling these is called Wholesome Concept, the tote is made from ecological cotton and [...]

Shoe troubles & a nice walk.

måndag, mars 21st, 2011

I found these wonderful shoes a week ago or so in a vintage store in Haga!
(Haha, to the left in the picture, Ziggy is taking a leap over the sofa and my computer)

The shoes & I bonded very well for a day so I thought I’d wear them out.

The day before, I had gone [...]

Thrifts & gifts.

onsdag, oktober 6th, 2010

I went to visit my grandparents a few weeks ago and my grandmother gave me this beautful crocheted quilt! Not a family heirloom or anything, I think they got it at an auction, but I’ve envied the one my flatmate Suss has and now I’ve got one of my own to add upp on [...]

Save the apples!

tisdag, oktober 5th, 2010

Via WeHeartIt.
I read an article on SVD today (the only news site that I had forgot to block out during my internet blockage hours..) about tonnes of apples being left to rot on the trees and the initiative Abundance in England, where people are helping the villa owners get rid of their fruits and make [...]

Hopefully no more wet feet.

tisdag, oktober 5th, 2010

I got new winter shoes the other week! Very well needed since my old similar pair is mysteriously missing and my only other warmer boots are leaking like crazy.
Bought at Emmaus second hand shop by Järntorget for 450 kronor. Tried to take good pics with my cell phone camera but it was tricky! When [...]

New thrift finds!

fredag, augusti 6th, 2010

Here’s a wonderful 50s hat I bought at Holmens marknad a few weeks ago for 55 kr! It’s got a hole on top of the head, velvet & pearls in the front and a weird velvet bow thingie in the back aswell. I’ve been wanting to wear more & more black lately.

And the purse I [...]

Toothpaste and switching shampoo brands.

måndag, juli 26th, 2010

When Ulrika moved out she gave me a bunch of really nice things that she didn’t wanna bring with her… (Thank you!!) Among them were Urtekram’s aloe vera tooth paste. I’ve only used it for two days but I think it works really good and I am glad it doesn’t have flouride in it. It [...]
