Bits

I have been so busy the past couple of days hence the silent on the blog. Hopefully things will be a bit more calm next week. 

 My little hipster kid

 tried to fix my old vintage skirts & brooches

Been listening to a lot Elvis music

 baked my first paleo bread

 went for a bike ride along nyhavn

considering (like I always do) to get bangs...and I always regret getting it.
So maybe I shouldn't get bangs then....or should I?!

Sankt Hans

WE celebrated sankt hans in the backyard with our neighbours. It was a lovely evening with pizza, bonfire and live music

Tour de chambre part 2

Our theme was (surprise surprise) the US. We made tuna melts and homemade lemonade with beer. It was so yummy but we forgot to take pictures. I only got one of my homemade American cake.

Tour de chambre

It has been one busy weekend. Saturday we went to Tivoli and Saturday afternoon we started tour de chambre at in our building. Ever apartment had a little theme and had to serve a drink and a snack. It was so much fun and we ended in the backyard for a barbeque. (Sorry for the overload of pictures)

The white problem

I have been looking for the perfect white shoes for 2 years now. I always end up buying these cheap shoes that I can't walk in. So I really want some comfy white pair shoes that will go with all my pretty dresses. And I think I finally found them. They are not to high and they have a wedge heel...... which I need! They will look cute to all my dresses and I can wear them with tights. So the only problem.... they are too expensive. I trying to save up money for an upcoming vacation - so I guess the shoes wont be coming my way any time soon!

My white dream shoes from Miss L fire

Bolero

Another thing I've been looking for is a plain white cardigan that has the 50s cut. All the cardigans I find ends at the hips but I want it to end at my waist. I did find one at H&M for 15$ and I got it in an XS (and I am like M) I'll show it tomorrow, and we'll see if it looks 50s or not.



While in H&M I found this pretty pretty bodystocking in pink gingham print - can it get any better than that?
 And my vintage brooches will go perfect with it.
