SOON!

I'm so excited! We're leaving for Sweden (Värmland to be
exact) in a few days! This time we're taking the car over,
going through Holland, where we're staying at our friends
Roel and Uschi, they've been inviting us over for years and
this time we finally get to see how they live. The next day
we're driving through Germany, Denmark and then we're
stopping in Malmö over night, Malin aka Punk In Writing
has been a real mensch and offered us to stay over for one
night before we're heading up to Karlstad.
This journey is actually costing us a bit more than a flight
for two to America believe it or not.

I will bring my camera and the computer so I can blog if
I feel like it/have time.


Here's our route. Click for larger map.

SENILE

I think I'm a bit senile, honestly.
I said I would post some pictures from Screamin'
Festival and I've forgotten all about it, well, until
today that is.
I made an album on Facebook but it slipped my
mind to post any here in my blog.
Anyway, since I'm so darn boring (camera shy)
and never do any outfit posts I thought I go totally
ego, so here's outfit posts to last you a while. ;))

I have to add that I'm not this chunky IRL, I hate
that I always bloat badly every time I fly. :(

My man, Zack and me.
Zack is our favorite rockin' kid, he was born into it and
it's been so cool se him grow up from a cute little boy to
a cool teen. The years goes by so fast... :)

LATEST WEB PURCHASES

Hi there my fabulous blog readers!
I was quite a happy bunny when the post man knocked
on the door this morning, 3 packages arrived, it was like
it was my birthday, if it wasn't for the fact that I've paid
for them and it's July, not December. ;))


1960's Vanity Fair nightgown, $6. Etsy.
Totally dreamy. I can't say no to a cheap 1950's/1960's nylon
nightgown, that would be so silly! ;))



Swimsuit, £3.19. eBay.
No one was happier than me to find that this is actually a kids size
swimsuit and it wasn't even tight.
My butt and tummy exercises works!
I must admit that a fellow blogger inspired me to make this purchase,
thank you
Lisa at My High-Heeled Darling.



1950's wash bag, £2.99. eBay.
This bag will keep all my hygiene products.
It came in the right time for our long road trip we're about to do.

I'M SO SORRY

Now this is what I call consolation!
Me and my man had a bit of an argument last week, we
made up and we're back to peachy.
My guy really know how to say he's sorry...
He gave me this 1950's Coro milky Lucite necklace with
gold and green flakes.
Maybe we should argue more often? ;)

RECREATE

Been looking through my blog and thought I might have
a go at trying to recreate my version of Dita's outfit in this
video with some of my finds and own creations...




Couldn't find a post about any red rose hair flowers
so this one will do for this post. ;)

25 pence from a car boot sale.

£2 from a charity shop, this is the revamped version.

I do have more bargain bangles I might throw in the mix.

YESTERDAY'S FINDS

Here's what I snagged at the car boot sale yesterday.
Click on the images for a larger view.


Moc Croc handbag, 50 pence.
Not too big, not too small, just perfect.


Knitted 1930's style cardigan, £1.
Absolutely lovely. I feel like such a nice girl in this. ;))


1980's necklace, 50 pence.
A bit too long and a bit too... I don't know...
I'm thinking about a slight revamp.



LP's, 50 pence each.
Gift from my man.


Flats, £1.
I'm quite pissed off, one shoe is one size bigger, like half a centimetre,
not really that noticeable but I can feel it! I never thought to look at the
sizes,
who buys different sizes anyway?



1960's Fisher Price toys, 75 pence each.
Goes in the collection of vintage toys for the future rascal's.
