I got a little surprise in the mail today. The moment I saw the name Bona Drag I knew it had to be good as I love just about every single item in that shop. It turned out to be Hannah, the designer behind With Hearts In My Eyes, and Bona Drag, who had sent me a skirt. And it isn´t just any skirt, it´s the patchwork skirt that I have been lusting after for a while. What a happy coincidence! The best thing about this skirt isn´t just the vibrant patchwork, but also the fact that it´s reversible. When I´m in the mood for something a little more casual, I can just turn it inside out and wear it as a denim skirt!
I wish I had the time to take proper outfit shots as I changed into the skirt at once! I am on the other hand packing as I am leaving for Stockholm tomorrow. I always get so stressed out when I am going somewhere even though I usually always have everything under control. Better shots to come though - I have a feeling I will be wearing this skirt a lot!

Being indoors cooking is no fun when the weather is nice, so the solution is to make tuna sandwiches and run outdoors to eat and have a beer.

We went out with my sister for dinner and I have now officially spent way too much money. After being out and about the entire weekend, I am not only broke, I am exhausted as well. But it´s been fun!

I got changed for the evening into a dress I bought today. I decided to tuck it into a skirt and wear it as a top instead.

Another sunny day and another afternoon spent in the backyard. I went shopping this morning, as usual, and ended up with these gladiator heels among other things.

We had our first dinner in the backyard today while Molvin got to know the cat next door. I was thrilled to finally be able to wear my new dress, even though it was a bit chilly without a jacket.

I´ve been to the first meeting in our apartment building and have been selected as one of the new board members. A little reluctantly as I hardly need anything more to stress about, but anyway, this is what I wore…

I seem to be in a very domestic mood right now. I found the cutest apron secondhand yesterday. With all it´s straps and frills it´s a difficult garment to put on, something that I love about something that is supposed to be so practical. I can´t even get it right without help. The weather report promises sun and springy temperatures for the next week, so we decided to spend today cooking. That way we make use of this cold and rainy day and also have lots of yummy treats for lazy days in the park. I made cookies and rolls while my husband made bread.

The weather report said it was going to be sunny today so I had planned to finally wear one of my new maxi dresses, but I guess they were wrong. Since the back of the dress is cut really low, it´s not really suited for cold weather and a warm coat is highly necessary.

After stopping by the flea market where I got two picture frames for old family portraits, we had breakfast at Bistro Brocante. We discussed which restaurants we would include in our personal Michelin guides while having mashed potatoes with salted and dried cod.

I had to change clothes to go see the fireworks as it was impossible to tuck the huge sleeves on my dress in under a coat. So I went with the boots and sweater I got today, the sweater that turned out to be long enough to wear as a dress. The fireworks were spectacular! Afterwards we went out for a few beers at a trashy pub and ended the evening with a big mac at McDonalds. Not as glamorous as the start of the evening, but still great.

Today is the grand opening of the new opera building in Oslo. While my husband and I haven´t got tickets, we decided to dress up a little anyway, and rather go check out the fireworks later tonight. I´m wearing a dress I got at Tonica today, and my husband is wearing his YSL blazer from the same shop. To make the evening extra special we made sushi for dinner.

Finally there´s going to be a stop to these web cam shots and attempts of squatting into the frame, tomorrow my hubby is coming home. Sadly, the pig is no help, her only trick is eating. Everything.

I am still shooting the pictures myself and it´s not an easy task. At least today I managed to use the Nikon camera instead of the web cam, but getting everything in the shot and in focus takes a little practice.
