19th century (?) jacket.

söndag, september 25th, 2011

Here is a blog post completely due to procrastination from studying for my test tomorrow. I took some detail photos of the jacket I wore yesterday as it is one of my absolute favourite garments! I bought it from a lady called Ulla, she used to wear it at the folks market in Jönköping. I [...]

Forever’s not so long.

Today has been a very slow day with headache, a walk that was supposed to be short, but turned out long and cold (it was in the search for pocporn) and studying for Högskoleprovet… Now Frej and I are going to watch a horror movie and eat popcorn and then go to sleep. The short [...]

Today.

tisdag, oktober 12th, 2010

I thought I should take some more pictures of the Fyrinnae eyeshadows I ordered a while back. However, I didn’t really succeed in showing much of the actual eyeshadow in the pictures and I am too lazy to take a new round of photos since it’s so hard to get my cell phone to work [...]

Mattias fleamarket & Ziggy.

torsdag, maj 27th, 2010

Yesterday Frej and I went to visit Mattias and look through his flea market room (he’s moving) If you’re in Göteborg you should go to him tonight because now it has turned into a free fleamarket! (Click for facebook event & directions there) And he has great things! Help him get rid of them! I [...]

Prophetia Sibyllae

tisdag, februari 9th, 2010

Yesterday I went thrifting with my cousin Johanna that is staying with us for a couple of days. I found this insanely fantastical letter weight, most useless thing ever perhaps? I now use it to adjust my vanity mirror when I do my make up. Any more suggestions of use? Might build a hat of [...]

Some random pix

Adina in her pretty living room, with the food we had the first night I was in Stockholm.

The wonderful umbrella holder thingie I bought at the antique fair in Stockholm! And my umbrellas.

Books from Bokbörsen arrived! Happy! I bought them without seeing pictures so I’m even happier now because I got the same edition of [...]

The Holy Grail!

onsdag, februari 3rd, 2010

At the antique fair in Kista I found the boots I have been looking for since I was like 15 years old! I’ve wanted a pair like this through every style I’ve ever had, haha! They’ve always been way too expensive for me to afford on Tradera, Ebay etc but this pair was just 350 [...]

A hat my mom gave me

tisdag, januari 5th, 2010

This is a vintage felt hat my sweet mother found at a fleamarket and bought for me a couple of years ago. I’ve always loved it but thought it didn’t fit well with the dark red hair. Now that the hair is part orange instead it looks a lot better!

I wish I had taken better [...]

A red hatbox

lördag, januari 2nd, 2010

I got this wonderful red hatbox for christmas. It used to belong to my grandmother’s sister and dad found it in their old house that has been sold a little while ago and hence cleaned out. I also got four hats that were in it, all from 40s-50s. I love hatboxes, so good for storing [...]
