Rock'n roll girls...

... are so cool. I'm totally loving the style of Coco Sumner (of I blame Coco) and Maja Ivarsson (of The Sounds). I always wanted to be a singer in a rock band, hmmmm... think I can still make it?

But the ultimate has got to be Patti Smith



I just love this picture of her and Robert Mappelthorpe. Taken from the blog Sexuality and love in the arts, photo by Gerard Malanga.

Finally, watching this, hearing this, not getting enough:

Did you know...


... that if you put a slice of bread on top of your brown sugar it won't go hard? I don't know why, but it really works. And the bread doesn't grow mold. I don't know why, but it just doesn't, even after months in the jar!

My husband took our camera on his trip back home, so I couldn't take a picture of my brown sugar jar, so I borrowed this one from the perfect pantry. Hope they don't mind...

Normal light bulbs in Infraphil lamp?

I just found an old Infraphil heat lamp, just like this one in a charity shop, and supposedly it's in good working order. Only it didn't come with a bulb and what I really want is to use it as a normal lamp. Anyone know if I can use a normal light bulb in it?

Come to Iceland!

It's gorgeous!

Bisgaard shoes

Bisgaard make the most beautiful shoes for kids. They're super good quality and murderously expensive (at least for me at the moment) and worth every penny! I just got these in black for my four year old today (got them at a really good discount too).

My son says they are dancing shoes :)



They are just too cute for words!

I want these in every colour!


Turquoise of course for 2010!
If I had a girl <3

Can you get any cooler than that?
The world's coolest wellies...


... in every colour of the rainbow!


You can get them in New York, London and almost anywhere. Go to their website to find a shop near you.

Ok, I'm hideously late to discover this site, but OMG! It's like candyland! Check it out!


A lot of posts on fashion lately, I'm a bit obsessed at the moment. It comes and goes.

Jump into summer!

I'm a bit late to catch on the jumpsuit trend (ok, not just a bit), but right now I'm dreaming of these for summer... although I'd love one made from some authentic African fabric - which is why I asked my hubby to look around for some, since he's in his native Uganda at the moment!


Leooard print from Patricia Field


Tibi Impanenma jumpsuit from Revolve Clothing (although - are you kidding me with that skinny model!!!)





Or this one could also do on a chilled out sunday morning.



Also check out this one and this one - very cool!

I went for a walk today...

...and saw this beauty in a shop window.



Isn't it gorgeous? I'd tuck my skinny jeans into them and wear with a cool T-shirt, maybe like this one.

Feeling greedy

We don't have an H&M where I live, but if any of you out there feel like sending me a little prezzie, here is what I want:

On the sunny side...


Hilda Grahnat is one of my contacts on Flickr and this morning I noticed she had uploaded some pictures from her beutiful home. I wanted to share it with you here, but then I saw that it is already featured on Design*Sponge today. I was pleased to find out that she has a beautiful blog and even an online shop. I started looking through her photostream. Found out that I have already posted one of her pictures here without crediting, so here's fixing that. This picture sums up how I'm feeling today... Somewhere out there the sun is shining but between me and the sunny side are thick walls and cloudy windows... I just have to find my way out there...

Acid wash denim

I'm selling my old acid wash denim jacket on facebook (see my facebook badge on the right) and I was looking for some stylish girls online wearing similar jackets. Found these cool ones:


Found this one on Flickr, can't remember exactly where.


Can't remember where I found this one, but looks like an ad.


Think I found this one on a blog.


I love this look, found this one in the Wardrobe Remix pool on Flickr


The always gorgeous Rihanna!


And my jacket. Yours for only $60!

Let them eat cake!

Today is No Diet Day, so here are a few yummies!


First up, Nigella's banana bread. I just love a slice of banana bread with a ton of butter on top. It's got to be what the Danes call 'tooth butter'... meaning that you can see teeth marks in the butter after you bite it.


I've been having a love affair lately. It's come as a total surprise to me, I never imagined this could happen to me. With peanut butter of all things! I just can't get enough. So from one of my favorite food (well, cake) websites, Bake or Break, a peanut butter pie with cookie crust!


And last but not least, Jamie. Oh Jamie what can I say? I don't find you cute like many women out there, but boy would I kill to have you wine me, dine me... and send me home with this chocolate love cake with cherries and booze... what more could a girl ask for?
