Cotton dress.

I've been feeling quite uninspired lately, and haven't really been in the mood to blog. I also feel like this blog isn't as good as I want it to be, and I keep wondering how all these people with fantastic blogs manage to find their inspiration and come up with completely captivating posts ever so often. I want to be like that - in every area of life - but I never seem to succeed because I feel so lazy and can't come up with anything most of the time. Oh, this is beginning to sound too depressing now. I didn't mean for it too, but I've been thinking about that a lot lately and it bothers me, and I'm not sure how to change it.

Anyway, yesterday, I bought this really pretty dress that I immidiately fell in love with at Noa Noa. And it turned out to also be 40% off, to my luck. I like it because it looks like a 50's vintage dress, and is extremely comfortable to wear.

Green leaves.

Today was an exceptionally beautiful day, and I spent some of it going for a walk with my dog in the forest.

Midnight

I'm in love - with my new Marc by Marc Jacobs Faridah bag. It's perfect. This is my first designer bag, and I couldn't be happier about it. It cost me a lot less than it would have buying it in a shop (hurray for a weak dollar), and I wasn't charged with customs duty either.

Oh, it's so beautiful. I'm just afraid of getting it scratched or something.

Tagged!

I was tagged by the lovely Mandy from Soir de fete

The Rules: "List 7 songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, wether they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now, shaping your spring. Post these instructions with your 7 songs, then tag 7 people to see what they're listening to.

Where do you go to my lovely - Peter Sarstedt. I've loved this song ever since I heard it in the movie 'The Darjeeling Limited'. It's so beautiful, and it's also the source for the name of my blog.

Every you and every me - Placebo. I recently rediscovered this song, and I love it. Especially the melody.

Je n'aime que toi - Ludivine Sagnier, Louis Garrel, Clotilde Hesme. It's French, and wonderful.



Poses - Rufus Wainwright. He's one of my favourite artists, and this is a beautiful song to listen to. It's so calm, and dream-like.

Almost Happy - K's Choice. This song is quite sad, but also makes you think, and ponder. And the melody is wonderful. I'm attracted to songs with pretty melodies.

You're gorgeous - Babybird. This is a song I like at the moment. It's basically a nice summer song.

Speeding Cars - Imogen Heap. This is just a song I've always liked a lot. Again, because of the dream like melody.

I'm tagging Carrie, Raquel, Marie, Sarah, Linda, Kirsty and Rissa.

Red buttons.

Today was a really nice day - aside from the fact that I slept way too long (ahem, untill one pm). I've only been doing evening shifts at work this week, and apparently shifting my own daily rhythm as well, going to bed in the wee hours and getting up at noon, or even past noon. I hope I can get back on track soon.
Nevertheless, I went to see a friend I hadn't seen in a while who has an adorable four-month-old daughter. I can't help wanting a baby of my own when I see extremely cute babies.






Cardigan: Benetton, dress: Forever 21, tights: Noa Noa.

The Thoughts That Surround You

Today the weather was strange - cloudy, but quite warm. Last week it was sunny, but rather cold. Makes me wonder if we'll ever have a real sunny and warm summer day. I wore the new top I bought yesterday, today.







The top, jacket and necklace are from H&M, the skirt is vintage, and the shoes are from Bronx.

Checks, stripes and polkadots.

Yesterday I bought some new clothes - which is probably not the most advisable cure for a lack of inspiration and creativity, but at least it's one that works fast.

I got a pair of checked shorts from H&M, because they looked old-fashioned, and a polkadotted top from H&M. But really, maybe I should stop buying things with polkadots since I have far too many clothes with them now - though somehow, I'm magically attracted to them. I will however have to count how many pieces of clothing I have with them, I think...


I also bought two pantyhoses from Noa Noa. Expensive, yes, but extremely good quality. And they are also very pretty!
