Thursday and another old favorit skirt, geometrical and multicolored. As you can notice I use all my mid-length skirts. Feels like the skirts and dresses preferably are below the knee right now. And not just coming from my age, but rather picking up a bit of the trends. Mutli-colored skirt can also be seen styled last year here. Peep toe sandals - Vince … [Read more...] about This Week A Skirt Story
The Asymetrical Skirt
In a simplistic way, i e with a slouchy white tee and an off-white cardigan. Closet essentials as they are, the white tee and the neutral cardigan, easy to combine and style with something more twisted. Puts the emphasis where it should be, at the skirt. Skirt - COS, styled with a summery top in June, seen here. … [Read more...] about The Asymetrical Skirt
Summer Travels in Sweden – Tänndalen
Best part of a hike is to have the Fika - coffee and cake! Going to our mountain house (our winter paradise) in the summer could depending on energy and time involve hiking, horse back riding, canoeing, chillin, evenings filled with playing cards or board games and of course a lot of wine and dine! This time we only had time for a couple of short trekking tours. As you can see by the scenery there's not much of a resemblance if compared to the Alpes or the Rockies, but with it's own charm. This time … [Read more...] about Summer Travels in Sweden – Tänndalen
My Own Version Of A Flowery Dress
I created the dress some 6-7 years ago, perfect for the New York summer. In Sweden I don't get to wear it as often, but a couple of times every summer I hit the office with this unlikely purple and black summer dress with a small small hint of light light green, just so much as it makes it intriguing. A detail that can be spotted in the picture below. I often style it with yellow or green, like here with a yellow belt or my green knot knit cardigan. … [Read more...] about My Own Version Of A Flowery Dress
As Wide As A Skirt
When the wide legged pants are as wide a skirt and in some angles actually look like one, thats when you know you have wide legged pants! I have always loved the style of wide legged pants - feminine and flowy - and I can remember my first ones, probably from around 1993-1994, with double breasted suit jacket in heavy black wool viscose, super chic and very French in style. Now, my pants are by a Swedish designer, Rodebjer but the feel is the same, heavy, flowy fabric. When love comes in the shape of … [Read more...] about As Wide As A Skirt
Swedish Travels – Österlen
I had completely forgotten the charm and beauty of Österlen, some 20 years since my last visit. But check out the postcards from Vik, Baskemölla, Brantevik and Skillinge, all little towns in the most southern part of Sweden. Map here. As picturesque and cute as any Marthas Vineyard. But the temperature in the water is terrifying! It could hardly be more than 60 degrees F (15 degrees Celsius) ... … [Read more...] about Swedish Travels – Österlen
