Swedish summer times




So its been a really long time since i had the chance to really sit down and get the time to blog. Over the summer Ive had some really big changes in my life. In the last three months of my life Ive gotten married to my best friend and Ive moved across the world. Me and my husband were living in Western Australia for the past 6 years. But we got the chance of a life time to move to Sweden so we did. I mean who wouldn't? Well most people think we are mad going from HOT HOT summers to ICE COLD SNOWY winters. To tell the truth its the best thing Ive ever done. Its such a beautiful, beckoning, captivating country to be in, i really could go on. When we got here it was the start of summer. Such a great start we had 24hours of daylight, then 23hours, 22hours so on and so on. At the moment it starts getting dark at 10pm then the sun starts to rise 3am. We are living in a Swedish 70's summer house in the middle of the forest its so quirky.


So im really excited to get back into this as i have no excuse! Ive recently been to Stockholm, its an amazing city if you ever get the chance to visit, then do it! There is so much history and of course so much shopping. If you are a fan of H&M there's at least 6 in the city center, its quite overwhelming. Not to forget ZARA, Topshop and plenty more. Also if there's any vegans out there, as my husband is, its a great place to get some yummie vegan food. Yesterday i got to thinking on what i wanted to blog, i've been reading Vouge UK September edition and i came across a Fendi ad that gave me the idea for this photograph.
The image is just so atmospheric with a calm, neutral background surrounding a model, who is wearing nothing but a sheep-skin coat and burgandy tights. Her shoes match the tights apart from a bright yellow heel that creates a great contrast with the calmer tones of her surroundings. So i may have gone over board with the bright colours but i think they compliment my setting.


Peace out x
