I found this crazy colorful collar dress at The Red Cross the other week. Intensive colors in general is something I feel very drawn to right now. If it is possible to fall in love with colors, that's what I'm doing.

speaking of colors, as you can see I have dip dyed my hair. So from now on I am half ginger, half blond. I couldn't be happier.

I have had a wonderful weekend full of different things. I spent some time in town and went through some stores and actually tried on some clothes. it has been like forever since the last time I did that in my city. this led to me finding the cutest outfit ever. In pastels of course, what else this time of the year, right? this combination of colors makes me feel like a cupcake. I love it. Amanda and I shot these pictures in yesterday's amazing summer sunset.

But this is just a few previews. AND MORE TO COME! so stay tuned.

okay so these pictures should have been posted weeks ago, but I totally forgot about them.

But I like them too much to not show them to you. Remember the theme night I was teeling you about a few weeks ago: "teenagers wear pastels" that Amanda and I had. A night filled with pastels in different ways. these photos were shot that night. I don't wear cute dresses like these very often. I think I should though, you feel so much more elegant. Like you are in a movie or something.

whatsoever, the flowery lace top is from H&M, the two powder colored skirts from Monki and a vintage store in Woodstock. The shoes I found in a small store in New York and the shirt top is Gina tricot, actually, but the collar I made myself.

So these past four days I have spent in the south of Sweden, where the most of my relatives are located. this time we went for one particulary reason actually. My grandma has, believe it or not, just recently gotten married to this really lovely guy. They make a very cute couple. So this was a visit of a-bridal-party-purpose.

They live in this wonderful city called Örebro, which I fall more and more in love with each time I am there. If you are going to live in or visit Sweden, Örebro is a splendid choice. It is the 7th greatest city of Sweden and has the most precious pedestrian streets all over the place. and all of the colorful, beautiful trees fits in perfectly and a castle right in the middle of the town. I would very much prefer to live there in the future.

.

however, the UCONN-top is actually my sister's (which she received from her friend who studies at the UCONN college at the moment), the collar I bought a few months ago from the company One More Time, the yellow shorts I bought at the Red Cross the other week (which I turned into shorts from a pair of jeans). Last but not least, give a round of applause for my new striped platforms from Jeffrey Campbell, Nasty Gal.

Okay, so this is HUGE. These are my new fabulous platforms from Jeffrey Campbell (Nasty Gal). One-mile-high heels, I know. I actually thought it would a lot harder to learn walking in them. But it really wasn't. The ground has moved up a few inches, but that's all there is. Other than that it feels pretty much like usual. Perfect for those, like me, that are not of equal length with the Eiffel Tower and have a boyfriend that is.

To make a long story short, I am over-my-head-in-love with them. They really have swept me of my feet.

finally friday has arrived and I could not be happier. The past few weeks has been awfully stressful. I have now not just ended up with a exhausting mind, but also a stomach ache. And I have nothing but the stress to thank for it. It is intimidating what stress can cause.

However the week is over and I have actually decided to stay home tonight, and do things that I usually never have the time to do. Like, redecorating in my room. I have finally managed to drag myself to buy a peice of fabric, which I will use wisely to create something to my room. It has been so long since I spended time with my sewing machine. it is about time tonight.

Since I have promised myself a while ago to try baking a carrot cake in the near future, I think I will take that challenge tonight as well. And of course I will probably end up watching one of my favorite movies at the end of the night. So long.

.

The magnificant and cosy knitted cerulean sweater and the beautiful lank dress are both of course from The Red Cross (Röda Korset, Kupan city). And the Dress actually belongs to me since last wednesday at the opening ceremony.

I have had the most wonderful weekend at Jonas house. He lives in this huge country house outside of the city, with a big yard, where you can watch the sunrise as well as the sunset. magical. However, at saturday we watched one of my favorite movies, THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY. there are not enough words for that movie, it is just so strong and beautiful. Some might think those movies are "such a cliché", but I am a HUGE fan. Now you know.

I have watched it a billions of times, but Jonas had not. So I really did not have a choice but to introduce it to him. If you have not seen it yet, I recommend it with all my heart. you will NOT be disappoited, If you have a similiar taste, as me, in movies.

I particulary love this qoute: this kind of certainty comes but once in a lifetime.
