The sea and the rhythm

So here I am again, on Svartsö, in a dress that I found at my favourite car boot sale! It's another colour I never wear, but since it was too cheap to let go, I had to have it, and it's SO comfortable! :D It has actually become one of my favourite dresses :)

dress - thrifted / belt - friend thought it was mine, wasn't, kept it ^^

 

 

Black velvet

Last week me and a friend visited an island in the Stockholm archipelago called Svartsö, and we found this awesome old house that we had to check out! It's from 1700 somewhere and it's so sad because there are disputes about who should pay for renovation, and while they're not getting along, the house falls apart :(

ANYWAY, black velvet dress ya'll. Found it at my local car boot sale for 20 SEK which is like $3. YAY!

MIDSOMMAR

Finally Midsommar! It's the second biggest day of celebration in Sweden (after christmas... I'd say anyway, maybe it's the biggest?). It's a celebration of summer and the light, and the "fertilization of the ground". We dance, eat and drink and are happy that it's the longest day of the year.

Here is a little video about it if you're curious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8ZLpGOOA1Q&feature=share

It always rains, but not this year! We were so happy :D Last year we were in Hollywood at this time, and since it's like the most Swedish thing ever, it was nice to celebrate it here this year :)

Tjej tennis in the Merry-go-round

Today it was time for LOPPIS (flea market in Swedish) in Åkersberga, and they always have this little funfair outside which is really strange (look at the animals in the merry-go-round) But it's cute!

So I found a white shirt and a pair of really old jeans, I hope they fit! :D

About the outfit... The shirt says "Tjej tennis" which means "Girl tennis" and I find it so funny that the "girl" part was more important than the tennis when they made it. (It's like a shirt for a specific tennis club). And the flowers are just hilarious, like you had to make it even more girly when it already said GIRL really big. Aahh I love it tho ^^ I pimped the shorts the other night, taking studs from an old belt that's too big for me, and I put them on the shorts instead :) The flowers in my hair are decoration stuff you put around candles (Ljusmanchetter^^)
