Music on a Monday: Paris

Hey guys, 

It´s an unusually grey Monday, started by oversleeping this morning but that´s nothing a large cup of coffee 

can´t fix. I am looking forward to a hectic week which will take me to Norway on Thursday  And as always my Paris obsession continues.......

Have a great week!

Saturday

Hi guys, 

Blogging really hasn´t been working out for me lately,  as I´ve been swamped with school work and other things. This outfit really makes me think of Paris, for some reason I am really obsessed with Paris these days, I guess it´s just because I miss it and I miss my family. I am determined to go to Paris this year, whether it be this summer or in the fall. Anyways I think this outfit is perfect for strolling along the streets of Paris (just add a beret and some red lipstick!), or just for Saturday night drinks. I like the Paris idea better.....

This jacket would really make the outfit for me, I can just picture myself wearing all this (and don´t forget the beret) walking along the Seine or at a café sipping coffee.

All the items above are from Topshop ( Yes, it´s not just Paris I´m obsessed with) 

Have a great weekend!

Music on a Monday: Phillip Phillips

Hi guys,

I love the most recent winner of American Idol, Phillip Phillips. I followed his journey to the win from his first audition. He has such a special voice which is wonderful to listen to and I think he has done extremely well on his first album. Here is one of my favorite songs of his: Hold on. 

Have a great week!

Foodie Friday: foodie movies

Hi guys, 
I have decided to devote Fridays to food. I love everything about food and cooking  so this is going to be a lot of fun, I hope you will enjoy it too. I´m going to kick things off with my five favorite foodie movies.


Chocolat

My all time favorite movie. Saw it for the first time when I was ten years old. I have watched it countless times since then and have yet to tire of it. Such a wonderful film and of course the very handsome Johnny Depp is a welcome bonus.

Ratatouille

Such a funny, cute movie, and any movie that happens in Paris is set to become a favorie of mine. 

Babette´s gæstebud

I saw this danish film in school some years ago and wasn ´t really interested in it. It wasn´t until recently that I saw it on television that I really truly enjoyed it. This is a moving story with some interesting character, and very interesting food!

julie and julia

I read the book tha Julie Powell wrote, prior to the film release . I enjoyed following along as she cooked her way through Julia Child´s famous book, Mastering the art of french cooking. It gave me the inspiration to do the same thing (although I have yet to start), after all: being half french I kind of have to...

Simply irresistible 

This one is also an old favorite of mine. Food becomes magic. Just my kind of thing. 

Have a great weekend !

Want it! Need it!

Hi guys,
I need this clutch bag in my life! Like yesterday! Preferably all of them! At least the Romeo and Juliet one, and the Great Gatsby,and.....okay this is impossible. I´m just going to have to get all of them! I already have a book clutch bag, that I bought from ASOS, but these  from Kate Spade are just so much nicer.

The great Gatsby 

Pride and prejudice

Romeo and Juliet

There are more titles available from Kate Spade, but these are my absolute favorite. I´ve also found more budget friendly alternatives on etsy, if you are interested in that. 

I am such a Shakespeare fan and I love Romeo and Juliet so I would really love to have the Romeo and juliet clutch

A girl can dream ....

On my list .....

To buy or not to buy: now that is the question!

Have a great day

Music on a monday: Heimförin

Hey guys,

This is one of my favorite songs at the moment. It´s called Heimförin in Icelandic  or in English "The way home". Such a beautiful song and I can just picture a story behind it. A story of a man walking home in the harsh, cold Icelandic winter weather, knowing that every step takes him closer to his beloved, who is waiting for him to return. 

....Guess I am a bit of a romantic, getting caught up in my own made up story. 

Have a great week!
