My Black & White Vintage Shoes
Or, my old black and white shoes that has been resting in the closet for a couple of years? Should I say Vintage or how do I refer to them? For me calling them Vintage shoes makes it sound more fashionable, with a little shimmer of old times. Or is the definition of Vintage that they should have been worn by someone else and I have to buy them in a vintage store? I honestly don't know but it makes me feel better to call them Vintage! And by the way how hard isn't it to start using the old shoes again? … [Read more...] about My Black & White Vintage Shoes

Chunky Necklace
Perhaps this is part of my thoughts about jewelry, or it's just another blogpost about one of my necklaces. The thing here is really that this necklace is so out of character.

Winter In a Box
This Sundays business is finally wrapped up! That's it, winter is gone from my closet and replaced by spring and summer!! In the sense that my semi-yearly routine of storing the off season clothes like wool and heavier sweaters in plastic and boxes has been the focus of my activities today. And it feels so good! This is also the occasion for sorting through and getting rid of the worn out stuff, the clothes that I feel are outdated and the pieces not worn for the last six months. Oh well according to other … [Read more...] about Winter In a Box
