Summer Day

Holy shitballs, the weather today is insaane!! It’s so hot outside, the sun is shining and there isn’t a cloud in sight. I’m loving life pretty much right now! I’ve spent the day so far outside reading Naked by David Sedaris, such a hystarically funny book! Definitely recommended..

I’m wearing my new dress which I just love, it’s so summerly! It can be found here. Now I’m off for a mountain hike, wishing everyone a lovely day♥

In My Bunad

Congrats to all my fellow Norwegians!! Today is Norway’s national day, and I’ve had such a blast with my fam all day. I’ve worn my beloved ‘bunad’ which my grandmother made for me, I absolutely love wearing it! We just got home from a lunch at my uncle’s house, and now we’re off to meet my boyfriend’s family, before we’re going out tonight.

I love my uncle’s house!!

My boo♥

We need to run, hope you’re all having a fab day♥

Lace On My Feet

Art

I’ve had these art prints and frames laying around for so long, and last night I finally sat down and did the framing. Since the paper behind the pictures in the frame isn’t the same shade of white, I’ve been looking for something that’s perfect, but with no luck. Now that they’re done, I actually don’t think the difference is so bad. That was hard to explain haha, hope you understand what I mean..

The plan is to hang them up on the wall, even though I liked this look as well. They take up like a third of the desk though, so I guess the wall is best.

I’ve had the shabby chic decor going on for so long, and I’m so sick of it, so I’ve went for the complete opposite now, haha. Guns, motorcycles and skulls baby!!

Wild horses..

I ordered them from Society6, and I just ordered some more with a bit more color. The frames are from Ikea. What do you guys think?♥

The Perfect Trench

Hi lovelies♥ Have you had a good day? My boyfriend and I have been running errands and did the longest road trip to change the car I’m borrowing. I love driving though so I don’t mind, it’s just so relaxing to drive around listening to music. Right now I just had the biggest etsy bonanza, I’ve ordered so many fun things! Once I get going I simply cannot stop. I ordered antlers and a cow rug for my home office which I can’t wait to finish up, and also the cutest wedding outfit for Bella. I can’t wait to show you!!

The rain didn’t allow me to take outfit pictures today, so I thought I’d share last night’s look for when Ulrikke and I headed to the movies. I just love this trench coat, it’s so perfect!

When I’m doing outfit pictures there are always these super goofy ones that sneak in between all the pose-y ones, haha.

Trench: Saks Fifth Avenue // Jeans and shoes: Asos

Now I’m gonna continue on with my Etsy bonanza to click home more things that I didn’t know I couldn’t live without, and watch the super cute Lene cook on Firestjerners middag! Gooo Lene!! Have a great evening girls♥

I’m Blue

..or well least my nails are. I’ve never tried blue nails before, they’re constantly pink, and sometimes red. But mostly just pink. When I got home from my mountain hike yesterday a bunch of nail polishes from Isadora were waiting for me, so I figured it was time to start experimenting.

The color is 757 Scuba Blue (hand piece here). What do you guys think? Yey or ney?

Rosettes

Hi sweetiepies♥ First of all, thank you so much for the quotes you shared! I loved reading through them, keep ‘em coming :) I just got back from a mountain hike with Bella, my energy is totally back after last week’s parties, traveling and events, and it feels so good. I gotta tell you, I don’t know how all these jet set fashion people do it! Traveling to new destinations every day, going out and whatever it is they do.. Today’s look is super simple, I matched my rosette sweater from Ebay with a new lace skirt from Topshop.

Today when I was hiking it dawned on me that I never eat fish unless my mom serves it on our family dinners, or I’m out eating sushi. I know I should eat fish three times a week, so I stopped by the store and bought cod on my way home. The cod wasn’t all that, it was one of those things you just pop in the oven with finished sauce and everything. But what I wanted to show you was the cauliflower puree, which is sooo good! Sometimes I just make it on its own, it’s so incredibly yummy and so filling. I suck at taking pretty food pictures, I know this doesn’t look appetizing at all, haha. I guess the problem is that I’m always so hungry when I’m supposed to take pictures of the food, so I just want to start digging in right away.

Cauliflower puree works perfectly with everything in my opinion, whether you’re having fish, meat or whatever. This is my way of making it: Start by frying chopped onion and garlic in a casserole, and when they’re nice and blank add cauliflower bouquets and enough water so that everything’s covered. Boil them until they’re soft and remove the water. Add cream, butter, salt, pepper, nutmeg and some cheese if you’d like, and mix it well with a hand mixer. I usually use parmesan, but today I used cheddar and it was divine. As always, I make more than we eat and keep the rest in the fridge. What I usually do with the leftovers is just adding water, boil it up and voila, I have a yummy cauliflower soup. You have to try it!!

Now I’m off for a date night with Ulrikke, wishing everyone a fab evening♥

Quoted

I’m such a quote junkie! I absolutely love reading through quotes, both funny ones, feel good ones, the ones that really make me think.. When I’m in New York, I always buy so many quote books, Urban Outfitters has an amazing selection. Pinterest is always a fab place to find quotes. I enjoyed my morning coffee today looking through quotes while listening to The Lumineers, a fabulous way to start the day! Here are some of the ones I liked..

I posted these in a blog post like two years ago, and they still remain my favorite quotes ever..

Now I would love to hear, what are your favorite quotes?♥ 

For a Girly Summer Night

I’m constantly looking for cute summer dresses, and my eyes are always drawn to light weight, flowy, romantic pieces. I’m obsessed with this dress, even though it’s perhaps a bit too girly for what I’d normally wear, I think it’ll look really cute this summer with tanned skin. I put together a little collage with a way to wear it, playing more on the girly style.

Dress: Here // Bracelet: Here // Earrings: Here // Bag: Here // Heels: Here

Do any of you follow Nelly on Instagram? I do, and I saw that if you use the code “Instamonday” before midnight you’ll get a 15% discount! Perfect!

A Fresh Start

Hi lovebugs♥ Monday means a perfect opportunity to make a fresh start, which is just what I need right now. The last week was so hectic, and I have so many things I need to do that I’ve been holding off, and I had no intension of doing them today either. Things like cleaning, doing laundry, answer emails, send packages, accounting work.. I just made up my mind; Everything on my to-do list is getting done before I go to bed tonight! The thing I’m mostly excited about doing today is grocery shop and filling up the fridge with greens and healthy stuff. As you know I’ve been focusing on eating really healthy/low carb the last year, and I kept away from sugar for so long! Now I’m way off. After the week in New York I haven’t been able to get back on track! If someone offered me candy earlier I’d be like “You know what, I haven’t eaten candy since September so I want to keep it up“, but now I’m like “I haven’t eaten candy since yesterday, it would be such a shame to break the good cycle. Just kidding, bring it on!“. In my daily life I definitely eat healthy still, but when I’m going out I eat like such a pig. I’ve been going out so much lately, and the alcohol and crappy food makes me feel super bloated. Now it’s back on track, starting now!! Who’s with me? No sugar for three months, let’s do it!!

I’m still in my PJs, so I’ll share an outfit from this weekend in stead. I’ve been wearing this dress a lot lately, but I just love it!

Dress: Here // Bag: Mulberry // Jacket: H&M // Boots: Topshop
