Bangles

I love wearing all my favorite bracelets and bangles at once. Last week I dragged my friend Katerina to Grunerløkka (thanks for the company sweetie, great to get out of the apartment from time to time). I stopped by Zuzanna G and found a pretty bangle from Tokyo Jane. Already one of my faves.

Bands from Marc by Marc Jacobs, watch from DKNY, pink bow bracelet from Topshop, and silver bracelet from Tous

Came in this pretty bag. Zuzanna G is a must visit

Wall of fame

In the latest issue of Cover, artist were given the opportunity to share their favorite wall space at home. I thought I would the same. Introducing the wall of fame in our lovely bedroom:

Browsing through the pics, I must admit that this wall sort of reflects my personality, not so much my hubby. Oh well, he did get to choose the pics on the wall, including his much beloved Anfield Road sign. And the electronics of course.

Confessions of a pregnant woman - 23 weeks

I have come to terms with the known fact that I will be spending a lot of time in my apartment for the rest of my pregnant state. As my doctor pointed out, I'm still not getting any better. It's still very exhausting, but looking on the bright side, I know it's temporarily. With every tiny movement that's happening in my stomach, it's becoming more evident that life is growing in there. This can brighten any difficult day.

On the emotional plan I'm still a bit of a wreck, and getting worse every day. I lie awake most of the night due to back pains and that's when things hit me. I'm having baby. Me and my husband will be responsible for another human being. So many questions derive from that. I don't even know where to start. We have been discussing everything from serious matters like savings for our future child to more trivial conversations like the color of the stroller. It's overwhelming, or truthfully really scary, hence me walking around the apartment looking like I wreck. On the verge of becoming an adult, last week I sought comfort in a childhood game, playing dress up. With makeup and heels on I felt ready to take on the world, although the heels went off after five minutes and the rest of the afternoon was spent in bed.

Pretty in Pink

I love that bright colors have been spotted on many of the spring collection runways. A splash of color is what I need after a long, long, cold winter. Found this pretty little thing on mytheresa.com. So lovely and has a price to match its splendor.

Am therefore looking for a cheaper version. Perhaps this one from the Cambridge Satchel Company.

Vintage chic

 

This is what I ended up buying on Saturday. I found this treasure at a thrift shop at Markveien. Completely fell in love with it. Been searching for a vintage suitcase for a while now and was so pleased to find a place where they had several. It's such a pretty thing and a perfect storage for my bags. This was a part of my 30th birthday present from my in laws. Thanks a million to them. I really want to buy two more, one for my scarf collection and one for the baby's room. May have to drag hubby or a friend to accompany me next weekend.

Saturday stroll in the sun

This week has been a though week for me, both physically and emotionally. I was therefore very pleased to see that the sun decided to grace us with is presence yesterday. It definitely brightened up a rather gloomy week. Weekends also entitles me to venture out beyond my neighborhood as I sometimes need a helping hand on my outings. Hubby and I strolled around Grunerlökka, window shopping and people browsing. Spring was in the air and hoping that it will stick around for the long run.

We ended up at Bugge's eftf café which is my fave café at Lökka. Ordered chocolate cake and some coffee. The cake became too much for my sensitive stomach as I only had two bites, but it did taste good.

I also ended up buying something which I'm really excited about. Loving it. Watch this space to find out what.
