Reykjavík street style

Still not feeling super and my littlest one still has the stomach flu... so just a few pics of the stylish girls of the streets of Reykjavík









Above - nice details on Ynjunet


Mother and daughter on Sagasig






Floral frocks on Wardrobe Wonderland


I'm heading to the countryside tomorrow, that is if everyone has stopped puking (sorry) so hopefully I can transmit tranquility and chilled out vibes over the weekend... have a nice one!

Did I miss the party?


By my auntie Begga. This one and more beautiful Icelandic scenery here and here
I'm feeling a bit under the weather, so no more blogging tonight... see you tomorrow.

Summer dreaming

My littlest one has the stomach flu so after he finally fell asleep there was nothing to do but roll up my sleeves and get cleaning, washing and doing laundry. All the while I was dreaming myself away to a faraway beach where my biggest worry would be to choose which bathing suit to wear to all the beach parties.

A classy black one for cocktails at the pool bar



Hanging out with my girlfriends poolside (accessorized with a large brimmed hat and a cosmopolitan of course)



Playing on the beach



Of course I've been daydreaming of the perfectly fit body to go with these...

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?

Coco:

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.

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.
