://COVER UP.

Somedays you feel like going under cover.




Poncho from Henrik Vibskov.

://MARGIELA blazer

I got some of the Margiela for H&M items, but just ended up with this, a classic remake of his blazer from earlier seasons. The cut is fun as the sleeves are sewn further on front giving the blazer a "flat" look. A classic wardrobe staple with a twist.

://SLEEVELESS delights

The vest is one of my favourite garments. It is perfect in so many ways because of it's versatility and how it can complete and make an outfit.

Here are some nice bargains from The Outnet and some shoes I think would go really nice with these:

Especially drooling for that pink one by 3.1.Philip Lim. LOVE IT.
Please Santa, I've been a good girl this year.

://BLK.

BLACK is always an easy option. Fave black essentials atm:




BLK never fails.

://DEGRADED.

My cam is un-available for a while. Damn rubber seals has loosened up. 3-5 weeks they say. (?!?!). That must be some high tech rubber seals.

Anyways. My only weapon of choice atm is just my phone. SUCKS. but it is what it is. Hope you'll still follow ;)

://HAPPY B-DAY MIMI!!

://COUCHIN'

Couchin' today. If that's even a word, and if not, then it officially is valid from now on. All that darkness (no emo) just drains out energy from me. And festive seasons is around the corner, better charge up.

://SURE THING

RELAXING Saturday. St.Germain, red wine and some books.

St.Germain ft.Lee Hooker - Sure Thing


Have a good one!

://WALL fillers

Finally! Just filled in pictures in all the empty frames in the living room.


Various pictures shot by me. Frames from IKEA.

://DECK.

The better half.

://NATURAL structure.

Sometimes nature provides the most intriguing structures and prints in common objects that can be found in your home. Just have to take time for a closer look.









Okay, I was bored during my sick-days.

://SATURDAY

 Surface 2 Air coat / Gestuz leather pants / Nike free / Gina Tricot scarf / Topshop tote

Casual Saturday.

://MIMI

Nice seeing you again.

://46 DAYS later.

It finally came. My upgrade. 3 turns to 5. Thought it was about time.



It just took 46 days since I put the order in. Now it's finally with me, well protected in a pink case (ofcourse).

://CLASSIC - with a twist.

Made this a different version of this classic dessert. In Norwegian it is called "Tilslørte bondepiker". Doesn't sound right when translated - Covered peasant girls...(wtf?!).

Anyways, instead of classic whipped cream, apple, cinnamon and crumbs, I used rasperry, strawberry, chocolate with that whipped cream. Turned out pretty sweet. And I like the look of it - pink!

Ingredients: fresh rasperry, strawberry, crumbled Maryland Cookies and crumbled chocolate. Cream to whip and rasperry jam.

Layers of goodies.

Topped with more goodies.

Whip the cream, then add 2-3 spoons of rasperry jam to flavor the cream and make it pink. Get a deep clear bowl and start with cookie crumbles (so the cream doesn't stick to the bottom). Add one layer of cream, then cookie diced strawberries, cookie crumble and chocolate. Repeat (as much as you like!). Then top off with fresh rasperry, more strawberries and rest of the garnish. 

Store cold in the fridge until serving time.

ENJOY!

://OPEN/CLOSE

://AUTUMN came and went

Shot these pictures a couple of weekends back. Oslo was still a bit vivrant then, decorated in autumn colors. Me and a friend from work took a walk and ended up at Palace Park. Grounds where covered with golden leafs.






Golden paths.

King's Guard.


Now Oslo is just grey, wet, cold and dark. It's my least favourite time of the year because the season is so UNDEFINED. Winter came for a quick visit, but disappeared for indefinite time.

Bye autumn, until next time. I'm ready for winter wonderland.

://COOL chicks - in blue

YES, another post about the color BLUE! How cool are these women?!



by The Sartorialist

://NEW blues.

VIVID blue is such a beautiful color, and been "obsessing" about it a little bit. I've found a lot of nice blue goodies, but most of them are quite outside my price-range as shopping should not be a priority at the moment....Luckily I came over these items at bargain prices so I finally could fill in some nice blues in my wardrobe:





WEEKDAY men's t-shirt / H&M wool-blend sweater / NELLY wht label suede boots.

All of these items I found on sale!

://NEW on the SHELF!

Autumn and winter means spending more time at home. Trying to extend my so far little book collection on these books I've been eying for a long time. I don't read much, but I love collecting books that contains pictures/art that I hope can inspire me. My Amazon wish list keep getting longer, so I thought I'd try to order atleast a couple every month. These are the newest in the shelf:







"The Sartorialist - Closer" - Scott Schuman
"Hello Kitty, Hello Art!" - Roger Gastman
"The Selby Is in Your Place" - Todd Selby
"Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty"

Can't wait to cuddle up in the couch with these!

://FRAME it.

Acquired this vinyl when Kanye West released his "Graduation" album a couple of years back. This is the closest I get to owning a Murakami piece for now, and it is too nice to just be stacked in the shelf with the other vinyls.





I found this frame for vinyl covers for 40 NOK at Tiger. Nice bargain!
