Last day of the school year

This is me and my eldest son at the graduation day. He do look handsome with jacket and a big rose in his chest pocket, doesn't he? Alfons (the youngest) is behind the smartphone taking this photo. We went to town to look at all the nice cars that was parked at the square. The cars will drive around all the freshly baked highschool students.

The dress I'm wearing is my second Ewa i Walla purchase from the outlet. It is in rustling silk with a thick velvet border on the hemline. With the dress Im wearing a shirt in silk knit (feels like a second skin) from Gudrun Sjödén, a tea dyed petticoat from a thrift store, thick black fishnet tights and my Irregular choice shoes. The basket is a 50's vintage find, the lid is open on this photo. 

Bat fit 

With this picture I'll give you a Bat fit update..... You can clearly see that I'm not a fit Bat, rather a bit fat. The conclusion is that I really have to start measure what I eat and that hard work in the garden doesn't make you loose weight, even if every muscle in your body aches. 

Red and Black week: Theme within a theme

Time for Sophistique Noir's annual Red and Black week. The theme within this theme is to add a bit of white. It is a very nice combination of colours even if I very seldom use it.

I don't have much time right now. I focus much on my work (new tasks) and our garden projects. I don't even have time to look proper (outfit makeup etc). But a nice decorated jacket can make me look a little better. This is how Countess Audronashas lovely brooch is combined with two flower brooches I made.

Lily of the Valley

I love this time of year.  Im busy, feeling high on the emerald green energy our nature is glowing of. Yesterday I took a fast lunch walk around the waste land and picked some flowers for my office. The fragrance is wonderful and coworkers smile and sniff in the air.
Have a lovely weekend dear fellows <3

Medieval fair

The annual medieval market in Leksand is a nice event to visit. Visitors and sellers dress up in beautiful appropriate clothes. Lots of fun things to buy and see. Tournaments, orchs, musicians, jesters and lot more.
I wore my newly bought Ewa i Walla skirt, with a simple tshirt. I was lucky that they had an temporary outlet in Falun.  Even though I was short of money I  had to take saved money and buy this skirt, a silk dress and trousers.
The necklaces are a women's utility knife and a cross i bought at the fair.

Happy World Goth Day

I spend a calm evening at home, sipping on some absinthe watching paranormal investigation series.  How do you spend this day?

Beige, fun or boring

I have a pair of beige ankle length trousers I feel comfortable in but they are a bit boring. Today I used them with a black top. To make it a bit less plain, I put on these grey dotted stockings and a pair of the thrift store shoes.

New shoes AGAIN!

My boots started to fall apart and I despretately needed nice everyday shoes. We were actually going to town to buy clothes for Oskar but when we passed the thrift store we took a peak inside. I found two nice and comfortable pairs. The pointy toes has a nice height of the heels and are very comfortable, they cost me  17€. The other pair has higher heels and rounder toes, cost me 12€. They both are like new. 

I even changed shoes in the store to have nicer shoes to walk in, I put on the pointy toes. Oskar asked, are you going to were theese now?? When I comfirmed, he declared that he refused to walk by my side. I know he want's me to look like every other mum, but I guess I would be embarrassing in anyway. 

The small guys bought shirts. At home Alfons had a lesson of how to fold a tshirt properly with me. Very instructive with step by step and stacking his new tshirts in an even pile (Alfons in a nutshell).

First picture of my new haircut. I wanted to dye it black before I posted a picture. I usually wear it with side part on the other side because I will grow my sideshave out (for the moment).

 I took this picture after running the errands in town with three boys in shopping spree (tiired). I am completely broke now but I couldnt resist to buy a pair of Star Wars shoes to G, my step son, angry birds bathing shorts to Alfons and the clothes I was supposed to buy for Oskar.
