strandvägen 1
Who’s making me this breakfast? We slept in today and until now I have been cleaning and fixing lots of stuff while my boyfriend has been doing some physics. I’m currently baking and then I’m getting dressed to go for a walk, get some groceries (I need to empty a store for canned Ice Tea) and enjoy the lovely weather outside. The windows are open wide and I’m still kind of warm… Anyway, tonight we’re going to make some dinner and maybe go out for a cocktail or two. These pictures are also from Stockholm, from Strandvägen 1, where my Mum and I had brunch on our last day. It was so delicious and surprisingly inexpensive too. I really love that you’re just a road away from the harbour and we were able to sit outside, which is so nicely decorated and cozy. We both ordered freshly squeezed orange juices (so good!) and latte macchiatos. My Mum ordered a fancy sandwich and I had mini scones and fresh berries. The mini scones with lemon curd were delicious so I’m making that for my housewarming tomorrow. Stay tuned because pics of all my baked goods are coming up! By the way, I’m wearing my beloved Kenzo sweatshirt and Dior sunglasses in the pictures above.
rosendal garden café
Here are some pics from our wonderful and sunny trip to Stockholm a couple of weeks ago. If you’re in Stockholm I really recommend going to Rosendal Gardens and their lovely café. They have lunch and all sorts of delicious cakes, we chose a cardamom bun, “hallongrotta” and a piece of carrot cake (not as good as Fotografiska’s though). They were all good and the setting is so beautiful! You sit in white green houses surrounded by lots and lots of beautiful plants. Anyway, today has been a crazy busy day and I’m picking up my boyfriend from the airport soon!
stockholm vibes
We’re on our way to Copenhagen so I thought I’d just share these snapshots from Stockholm. Stockholm is a really beautiful city and architecture-wise I think it has a slight resemblance to Paris. The weather was delightful during our stay, which of course added to the summery feeling (definitely visit Stockholm in the summer unless you really want to freeze). Do you guys know that I could have chosen to study in Stockholm? It’s a beautiful city but it’s rather far from my hometown, so I’m very happy with my choice.
baby blue & cinnamon bun
It’s actually such a shame that I didn’t take any pictures today (picture proof?) because the weather has been amazing! I could actually tan in a bikini for some hours in the middle of the day! We’ve been pretty unfortunate with the weather this spring so far so today was pretty major! Anyway, I’ve been doing all sorts of practical things with my Mac and my iPhone (trying to clear up some space), tanning and going for a long walk. My Mum and I even grilled Norwegian lobster and asparagus for dinner. First time barbecuing this year! Now we’re going to watch some Dexter and then I’m off to bed. Oh, and this picture is from our trip home from Stockholm. I travelled in a new sweat two piece from Brandy Melville in the cutest baby blue colour (perfect flight outfit – am I right?) and of course accompanied by a humongous cinnamon bun from Saturnus, which is a pretty famous café in Stockholm.
fotografiska café
Another post from Stockholm. I’ve mentioned that Fotografiska is my favourite museum and naturally, the café has affected that decision… They have such a variety of different delicious foods and my Mum and I had such a hard time choosing what to get! We ended up with sharing a shrimp salad and a huge piece of carrot cake. The view over Stockholm harbour from the café is splendid and the interior is minimalistic and dark except for the art hanging on the walls. I love these two pictures. I adore the colours in the second ones and pictures of lips are almost always beautiful somehow. The other photography is pretty too and I love the mod eye makeup.
pretty in pink at rosendal
Here are the outfit pictures from last Sunday when we visited Rosendals Gardens & Café. I wore a perfect spring outfit consisting of only pink. I really adore the Joseph pants, they are comfy and elegant at the same time. And it’s the first time I’m wearing my new Club Collection top. I just had to get it when I saw it, so I called the staff and asked them to tell me when they had it in store. I love cashmere tees and particularly such cute peplum tops. I’m pretty amazed that it’s possible to make a peplum top of 100% cashmere. Please see below for details. I’m pretty sleepy today because I went from my real home directly to school, which was a pretty stressful trip (as always), which is why I’m not writing more…
Outfit:
Sunglasses: Dior.
Earrings: Carré.
Necklace: Syster P.
Top: Club Collection.
Faux Fur Coat: Ilse Jacobsen.
Pants: Joseph.
Sneakers: New Balance.
travelling tones
We are travelling back home tonight! It’s actually pretty nice with an extra day in Stockholm. We started it by going for a long walk (actually in search of my leather mittens that I somehow managed to loose yesterday and I’ve been obsessing over them ever since). We went to have breakfast at Strandvägen 1, which is the most wonderful place. It was really sunny so we could sit outside and I even had to take my coat off! I got such fabulous mini scones and everything else was perfect too. Afterwards, we went to one of the stores that we visited yesterday and I am now reunited with my beloved mittens! Then we packed our bags and went for a swim before heading to “Östermalms Saluhall” for a delicious lunch. Then we dropped by Saturnus for a cinnamon bun and enjoyed some ice cream down at Nybrokaj. It’s been such an incredible trip to Stockholm and I have tons of more pictures to post so stay tuned!
