Blackpool.

Yesterday C. Elizabeth went to Blackpool for a day. We had planned on going to the amusement park there, but we found out in the last minute that it was closed - we thought we'd go today instead then, but it ended up pouring cats and dogs, so no. However we had a nice day strolling along the beach, talking, eating at a café and we were in fact able to take one carousel at one of the piers.

Visiting

I am really enjoying visiting my friend C. Elizabeth in England - I've only been here for three days so far, but we've been having so much fun just chatting, laughing and enjoying each other's company. Unfortunately I've forgotten to take very many pictures so far, so I don't really have that many to share with you.



These are from today while we were in Manchester.


Also, I bought some pretty things today that I thought I'd show you.


These pretty shoes from Topshop.

And my new Dahlia playsuit. I love them both.

The ferry boat coat.

Say hello to my new Nanette Lepore coat!



Words cannot describe how much I adore it, just look at the pretty details:



And, I can wear it closed with a brooch, or open:




Tomorrow I'm off to England to visit my friend C.Elizabeth, and that's going to be just wonderful, I'm sure! I'm going to take my computer with me and will try to do some blogging while I'm there, but sadly I don't know if I'll have enough time replying to all your comments (you should just know how much I appreciate every single one of them!) - so if I don't, I'll make up for it when I get back again.

Yellow...

Hello everyone,
sorry about the long absence. I've been studying for my exam that I had today, and I decided that the only way I could devote myself completely to studying, I had to lay off blogging for a little bit. Nevertheless, I'm back now, and happy that my summer holiday's now started (although I do have to start thinking about my master thesis) - which will hopefully be great. How have all of you been doing?

This is what I wore on Saturday:

Dress from Noa Noa, cardigan from H&M, tights from Kappahl, and shoes from Benetton.

Red hair inspiration.

From Torpore

Lately I've been quite fascinated with these beautiful pictures I've come across on flickr - of  redheaded girls. Red hair is so lovely, and so intriguing. These pictures also make me long for red hair myself, to be frank. However, I think I'm going to keep my blonde hair for a little while longer...

Mustard yellow, black and soft pink...

... is a really wonderful colour combination, in my opinion, and those are also the colours my outfit today composes of. 





Dress from H&M, blouse and shoes from Noa Noa, tights from Vero Moda, and bow from Quietland.

My new 40s dress.

I wore this vintage dress from the 40s yesterday - one I recently won on ebay. I think it's so pretty with the lace collar and the lace on the sleeves.

In my backyard.

Hello,
I am sorry for neglecting my blog for nearly a week, but I've been rather busy with a conference, finishing a paper and enjoying the lovely weather we had. But now I'm back, for the time being!
I took these pictures this afternoon in my backyard - it's now cloudy and rainy and not pretty and sunny as it has been for days and days.

Top and tights from H&M, skirt from Gina Tricot, hair piece from Bianco and boots from Bronx.

I also thought I'd show you my national costume I wore on Sunday - Norway's constitution day.


Also, I received two wonderful awards.

Thank you so much, dearies! I'm passing these on to whoever wants them... I'm too tired to tag anyone now.
