Outfit of the day

The sun is shining, I have the weekend of and today my favorite football team in the whole world is playing today. I woke up before the alarm clock and felt more alert and happier than I can remember doing in a really long time. And I've been feeling great lately, so I can't even believe the joy and the happy feelings running around in my body right now.

I'm soon to leave the house to go see the game and tonight two of my best friends are coming for some dinner and movies. This day has all the opportunities to be awesome!

The other outfits I've shown you in this blog has been for work, so I thought I should take a picture of what I'm wearing today, when I don't have to dress up. Just a simple and comfortable outfit for everyday life.

Jeans from Gina Tricot. The sweater was a Christmas gift from my brother, but I think it is from JC.

February favorites

Today's favorite is free for all to enjoy! This time it's a song that I just happened to listen a lot to in Thailand, that now makes me happy whenever I hear it. It makes me feel like the sun is warming me, even though it's freezing here. Instead of a cold bus I see myself on a sun lounger on the beach.

Ladies and gents, I give you James Blunt and Bonfire Heart!

It's time again! Another February favorite is coming up.

I really struggled when I was picking a bag in Thailand, but now I couldn't be happier than with the one I ended up with. It has room for everything I need for work and everyday life, without being too big. Not to mention that I think it looks absolutely gorgeous.

Time for the February favorite of the day. It might seem boring and dull, but I can't do my favorites without this one. It's my beloved H&M skirt. I've worn it almost every day this month (Do not worry, I have more than one of this so I do have time to wash it).

Since I usually want to show off tights that we sell at work it's great with a plain skirt that works with everything. I also like that it's very comfortable and that I can move around in it without any trouble. Let's just say some skirts are not made for climbing ladders. With this one that's not an issue.

So here we go, my boring but very much loved, skirt;

Kicks Sugar Lacquer

One of Sweden's biggest cosmetic companies has a store right next to where I work. Not surprising that I end up paying them a visit if I have some spare time on a break.

As you may have noticed I'm a big fan of Isadora's Sugar Nails collections. At least my boss has. The other day she asked me if it was the Kicks Sugar Lacquer I used. Guess you know the rest. I had to run in there.

Somehow I had missed that they made these kind of polishes in their own brand. Quite hard to see though since you can't really see the texture from the bottle. Guess I hadn't read the text carefully enough.

Of course I had to try one of them, and my pick fell on a beige one. Even tough I love colors, that's not always the most wearable ones to my clothes. Therefor I was really happy to find a neutral polish with texture. Also like the fact that is a local brand.

Isn't it lovely?

Blog night

Hi everyone!

I'm so happy to see some activity on this blog. I find new comments every now and then, and it's so exciting to see that readers from all over the world is starting to pop up. Even if just for a short one time visit. I really appreciate that you take the time to stop by.

I'm from Sweden so obviously most of my interaction on social media is in Swedish. Since I would love to meet you all on other platforms as well I've opened up a Twitter account and an Instagram account connected to this blog. If you wish, I would love to hear from you there.

Now I'll take some time to edit photos and prepare some scheduled February favorites posts for this week. Tomorrow will bring work, and another work meeting in the evening. It sure gets a lot of those now. Feels like I have a new meeting to go to every time I post something on here.

I just couldn't help it...

I have a day of from work, so me and my sister went to the city. I was going to pick up my season ticket for football (or soccer if you prefer that, but I'll stick to using football). Picking up that little card, with all the expectations it brings, is one of the best days of the year for me. Almost like Christmas!

When that was done we went to have some lunch and then do some shopping. I had decided to buy the lip scrub from Lush. We don't have Lush at the shopping center where I work, so I don't get the opportunity to go there very often. Guess what they told me when I got there? "They are sold out, but we'll get new ones tomorrow." Imagine the disappointment! How can they not have a single one? I would have taken any taste! Hope I can find some time to go back soon!

I wasn't supposed to buy anything else, but as usual I couldn't keep my fingers away from some things. And when I think about it, I really needed new jeans, so I had a good reason. At least for one of the things I got.

The shoes are from Din Sko (Swedish shoe store) Everything else is from Gina Tricot. The socks were a free gift since I'm half way through a stamp card. Check out the closeup on the nail polish! Isn't it awesome?
