Hi there! Back from hols and into the hustle and bustle of everyday life. :) I hope your summer has been great as well! :) Uhm we wont talk about the weather. :( I hope you are not tired of my current flamingo theme goin on here, here is another outfit I wore earlier this summer. :) A bit different from my usual vintageinspired style, I sometimes like to branch out in a more modern and preppy style direction.<br />

Well what else is goin on, Ive really upped my sewing game lately as I have signed up for my third sewing class starting in September. :) I cant wait!! Its another beginner course cause my skills are really so so at the moment. ;) Hehehe hopefully practice makes perfect, Im really motivated this time around as one of my goals is to make my own circle skirts. :) As it is now Im spending a small fortune on paying others to make skirts for me but I would really love it if I could make my own one day. It shouldnt prove too difficult, Im trying to get the hang of it all, bought me some cheap fabric to practice on. :) Im going nutters thinking of all those wonderful, fun and quirky fabrics out there just beggin to be used for a skirt!! :) LoL<br />
My current sewing projects are some new curtains for my bedroom and some pillowcases. :)<br />

Hello ladies! Here is my second flamingo outfit out of four, this is a favourite of mine. :) Im also sporting my new flamingo sandals for the first time, such a pretty sight. :) Im so happy we had one day of summer (!) so that I could put this outfit on show. :)<br />

Im so sorry for the dress riding up a little, I didnt pay any attention to it when taking these photos, Im a bit annoyed by it really. It kind of ruins the impression of the dress, how it flows over the body. Im a smitten kitten with this fabric and the shape of this dress, its fun,quirky and beautiful at the same time. :) Its from the Danish brand Mania Copenhagen, I already own several mania dresses but this is the first time Im trying this pin up model. Its lower in the back than the front (cant remember the english word for that).. ;)<br />

My flamingo sandals is by Miss Lfire, my first pair of shoes from them. Im really pleased with them, not only looking spectacular but surprisingly comfortabel as well. :) Wont be my last pair, Ive already got my eye on a few, hehehe. :)<br />
So what else is cooking, well I have my last day at the office tomorrow and then looking very much forward to holidays for three weeks. We will visit the family summerhouse/cabin in southern Norway and preferably spend a day or two at the beach (fingers crossed) We are also going to the Zoo for the first time with our toddler, I hope she will like it there as she is really into animals. :) Other than that we will just relax and spend time with family and friends.Kind of low key vacation which I think is fine by my toddler. :)<br />

This is my first flamingo skirt woop woop from new to me brand Banned Apparel. I know this sweet lady in UK which acts as my personal buyer in cases where the postage to Norway is insane and way to expensive. She bought this fantastic skirt for me and shipped it herself to Norway, saved me lots of pounds. Truly an act of kindness, she is a life (dress and skirt) saver that one! :) Im forever grateful Kels! :)<br />

Im playing around with a belt or no belt, I think the outfit looks better with a belt. :) And look, Ive made a new little birdy friend. :) As you may have noticed Im no wearer of jewellery but that might have changed since I stumbled upon these gorgeous brooches from down under brand <a href="http://erstwilder.com/" target="_blank">Erstwilder</a>. These are the perfect compliments to any retro/quirky/vintage inspired outfit! :) I must admit I have purchased 4 different brooches already, I see a new addiction brewing. ;)<br />

Well for those of you that follow me on Instagram you caught some glimpses of what I was up to in Brussels. The meetings ended up being quite a hassle especially since I was new to it all and apparently Norway was in the spotlight which totally threw me over. I got asked a bunch of questions in which I wasnt able to reply cause I had no knowledge of the matter in question. Blah! I felt really embarrassed and uncomfortable not only for myself but on Norways behalf as well. :( Well now I know better and if I can help it I will not attend these particulary meetings anymore. I was only stepping in for a colleague of mine who wasnt able to participate. But at least I got to spend some time in Brussels (shopping anyone? ) so it was not all bad. :)<br />

Weee here`s a full rainbow for ya! :) Lately Ive been drawn to wearing skirts instead of dresses. A dress is pretty and all but doesnt require the amount of styling as a skirt where you need to find a top and cardi to match or mismatch. ;) My newest addition to my growing collection of retroinspired full skirts is of course this beauty by Boden. What can I say it was love at first sight online. :)<br />

I wore this to work on a sunny day (they are few and far between) and this was just the perfect outfit. :) I really love the fit of this skirt, quite fitted at the waist and upper hip and then flares out.<br />

Finally I have decided on the outfit for my meetings in Brussels later this week. I hope this dress from Boden will see me safely through it all, its the more modest of dresses I own and its navy which is a corporate colour. Wish me luck ladies, Im sure gonna need it!!<br />

I attended a confirmation dinner party for one of my cousins a Sunday in May. And I wore this, covered in Boden from head to toe (nearly). ;) I love the fact that Boden always have some vintage inspired clothes in their collections. :) This is the<a href="http://www.boden.co.uk/en-GB/Womens-Dresses/Special-Occasion-Dresses/WH819/Womens-Vintage-Bow-Dress.html?NavGroupID=4" target="_blank"> vintage bow dress</a> and I think it lives up to its name. :)<br />

Lately I have become more and more infatuated by vintage/retro inspired clothes, admiring the pin up girls who lives out my secret dream. One of my guilty pleasures is to read vintage style blogs/insta blogs, soooooo many pretty outfits Im nearly having a heart attack. ;) Sadly Im not able to wear that kind of clothes in my everyday life, its not compatible with having a toddler and I would look like I was going to a costume party everyday. ;) Oh well only in my dreams then..<br />

Im wearing this lovely, bright yellow trenchcoat from Boden, its from the spring collection last year but this is the first time Im wearing it. :) I think it goes rather well with my dress. :)<br />
Bleurgh, have you heard summer is off? Im having a hard time dressing these days, all I want to wear is bright, colourful, summery outfits but the weather certainly isnt keen on that idea. :( Its been raining and so cold we might as well been living on Iceland for that matter. We havent even touched the 20 Celsius yet and thats a disgrace at this time of year. Im so fed up with the freakish weather and feel like my inspiration and mojo has turned the blind eye and left me in jeans and boring top for weeks on end.......Please Please Summer will you turn up sooon?<br />
And if that wasnt enough I have a clothing dilemma that has left me in a bit of a puddle. Im going to Brussel later this month on a work trip, attending a couple of meetings in the EU district. Im scared shitless to say the least (iiiikkk - first time in Brussel and first time attending an EU meeting, all on my own). And what to wear??? I dont think my fondness of colours and novel patterns will go down well with the EU crowd. *giggles* Formal clothes is so not me and I dont own any such garment either. Luckily I still have some time left to figure this one out....<br />

Ah better late than never, here is how I styled my recent aquired ellie garments from White Stuff. I paired the ellie shirt with a red blazer, red ankle boots and jeans treggings. Can you tell I love red? :)<br />

I wore this to a work conference hence the "corporate" look. ;) However I think I interpreted the corporate a bit different than the other participants, I was not hard to miss in a crowd of black and grey. ;) hehehe<br />

I dont feel awkward standing out in a crowd even though Im quite the shy person, my mission in life is to fight the blacks and greys and hopefully to be an inspiration to others to wear f* colour as Trinnny would put it. :))<br />

Aloha! As I told you in my last post I went a bit nuts in the White Stuff shop in Copenhagen. Go figure! ;) This is how it looks from the outside, pic taken from my previous trip to Copenhagen back in September 2014.<br />
I was literally drooling all over when I noticed my current favourite collection, <a href="http://www.whitestuff.com/womens/lost-island/" target="_blank">The Lost Island</a> was in stock. :) I immediately started rummaging through the clothing racks, I was on a mission you see and then rushed downstairs to changing rooms with my hands full. ;) And here it goes:<br />

<a href="http://www.whitestuff.com/womens/shirts-blouses/white-little-ellie-shirt/" target="_blank">Little Ellie shirt</a> - OMG, how cuuuuuuuute is this shirt!!! Even the name makes me smile, Im actually thinking of naming my next child Elli if Im having a girl. (No wait a minute, no baby on the way yet) Little elephants in a variety of colours on a white shirt, so so so so so adorable! Please excuse my manic looking eyes, seems like Im having an out of myself experience, hahhaa. :) The shirt went of course home with me.<br />

Hello there!! Im finally back after a no show for weeks, my PC died on me a few weeks back (one of the hard drives went nuts, thank god for back up). ;) And as you can see I have done a bit of travelling. :) I went to Copenhagen for a long weekend with my mum and my sister, as a gift to my mum for her 60th birthday. :) Well Copenhagen what can I say, I just luuuuuuuve it there. :) This is the wiew from the hotel we stayed at, overlooking "rådhusplassen", the town square. This pic was taken at 6 am, early I know but we had trouble sleeping the first night cause the beds were really uncomfortable. :(<br />

And yes a blogger meet up!! I got to meet <b>Tine</b>, the supersweet lady behind the blog <a href="http://highlyirregularstyle.blogspot.no/" target="_blank"><b>Highly Irregular Style.</b></a> :) She joined us for lunch at Cafe Norden and we had a great time! We even co-ordinated our outfits by chance. ;) Tine is such a warm and sweet person with the best sense of humour. :) Thank you dearest for being so brave and meeting not only me but my mum and sis as well, three strangers at once. ;)<br />
<br />
Well thats all for now as Im off on a business trip for two days in Norway, tired of packing and unpacking. ;) Oh well you might wonder did I actually buy anything in Copenhagen ? Well needless to say I didnt leave Copenhagen empty handed, went a little bit nuts in the White Stuff shop (sorry Tine, didnt pay any attention to your advice of not spending it all at once). Hehhehehe. But thats another story for the next blog post. :)Monica - Colour makes peoplehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12256425455770972840noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4585824951051368533.post-6173984835148174882015-03-04T22:26:00.001+01:002015-03-04T22:26:14.580+01:00Birdies and plaids<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Spring is coming according to the calendar. The weatherman not so much, hehehe. What better way to celebrate spring than wearing some chirping birdies, they are just as cheerful as the jolly bunch sitting in the trees outside my house. :) I love to wake up to birds chattering. :)<br />

I love this newfound orange skirt which I bought in a local shop the other day, the colour, the fabric and the fit is just perfec! Im trying to stay off the novel print/pattern wagon and purchase more solids, its easier to mix and match with those.<br />

I giggled myself silly taking these pics, goofing around like well basically any child. ;) I can recommend to act like a child sometimes, it totally lifts your spirit. :)<br />

Howdy! Im feeling groused out to day but in a good way! :) My new skirt from WS featuring pretty big birdies has finally arrived. I love the grouse but they look more like pigeons to me. ;) I snatched it up in the sales, its the best feeling buying stuff on sale. If I had to I would have purchased it at full price though , wouldnt let this fly away. ;)<br />

Such a lovely, sunny day when the photos were taken. I know Im breaking all kinds of photography rules taking pics in direct sunlight, casting shadows and whatnot, but I dont care. :) I guess you are not here for my excellent skills as a photographer getting by with my poor compactcamera. ;) Im running a low budget blog, hahaha. ;)<br />

Sometimes I need a little kick up my butt when it comes to colour mixing. :) I find these crafting colour challenges - ColourQ really inspiring. In fact I have decided to challenge myself in recreating this colour palette by the use of items from my wardrobe. :)<br />

And... here is the result. :) Melonmambo cardi and tights, pumpkin orange top, red skirt and neutral/offwhite boots. I had so much fun rummaging through my closet so I will certainly do this again. Thinking of making it a weekly serie here on the blog. :) Perhaps you will be inspired to try it as well. ;) Nothing would please me more, heheheheeee.<br />

Hi there folks! :) You are looking at one busy bee for the moment. ;) The reorganisation at work has come to an end and I finally know of my new position. Im quite relieved now that its all sorted out, it has been troubling my mind for months. In fact Im a very happy and busy bee, it turned out really well for me. :) As of next week I will start in my new position so hence the busy bee thing. :) Its quite a step up for me careerwise but I feel ready to take on more challenging tasks.<br />

And there is a bumblebee on my t-shirt. :) Actually its the first time Im pairing a t-shirt with a midi skirt and in my opinion it totally works. Lately Ive tried to come up with new ways on how to remix my wardobe more instead of just buying new clothes. It makes me so happy when my clothing experiments succeed. :) Ive only worn t-shirts with pants before but now I will wear them with my skirts as well, YaY!<br />

As for the colours in this outfit Ive tried to make them fit the bumble bee theme with a little twist of teal. :) I love how the navy, yellow, teal and white play together. :) Maybe not the most wintery of outfits but I cant help it. :) I thrive on colours. ;)<br />

Hi there! Finally I got the opportunity to show you my latest Boden arrivals. :) I received the skirt weeks ago but the jumper I bought in the huge sale just before Christmas. Due to the holidays and customs I didnt receive it until a couple of days ago. YaY the sun was present too, a seldom sight these days as we have had gale winds and rain for days on end now.<br />

Boden intarsia jumper and kilt skirt. Im trying to recreate this Boden outfit, I fell in love with the colourclashing. :) and my wardrobe was sorely missing a pink skirt. ;)<br />

So here`s how the outfit looks like on a real woman. ;) Ive actually played it up a bit by adding red tights and purple ankle boots. :) I felt really at home in this. The jumper is size UK6 and the skirt is UK10L but slightly roomy in the waist, I should have gotten a size UK8L instead but I was afraid it would be too tiny as I have put on a few kilos from having a baby.<br />

The jumper is still available in the clearance sale but unfortunately the kilt skirt sold out pretty quickly, long before any sale.<br />

I thought it would be fun to run a few blog post series to spruce things up a bit. :) First up is the Quirky Friday series which will be featuring a quirky item of my choosing/liking. Im always on the lookout for quirky prints (especially from the animal kingdom) or fun colour combinations.<br />
Why not share my findings with you guys so we can drool together. ;)<br />

My first waterfall cardigan, love how it twirls in the wind. :) This cardi is growing on me, I liked it when I first laid my eyes on it but after several outings Im totally smitten. :) Its very adverse too, goes with all kinds of tops. Thats a wardrobe staple in my book, great! :)<br />

Monday this week we woke up to new spring collection from Boden. :) I believe its the first launch of more to come as Ive learned that Boden doesnt show all the goodies at once, save the last ones for the best perhaps?;) Actually I dont mind at all, its really nice to have something to look forward to in the weeks to come. My heart does a little twirl whenever I come by new stuff, its so exciting! :) And I wanna buy everything, hehehe.<br />
<br />
As much as I love Boden and being a dedicated fan I cant help but feeling a little let down by the spring collection. There are certainly less items that get me all worked up, even the patterns and colours seems a bit off this time. But of course I have managed to put together a wishlist for you. ;)<br />
So here goes:<br />

Happy New Year everyone!!! :) I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and may 2015 bring us all lots of happy times and precious moments. :) Im eagerly awaiting which ups and downs life will throw at me in this new year. My work situation is about to change as my employer is busy reorganising so thats one thing Im both excited and worried about. I will know more in the end of January, not knowing is the worst.<br />

Im back where I left you stranded sometime in November and as you can see Im not done with foxes, far from it. ;) hehehe Im so sorry for not having blogged at all during December but I have been terrible busy to say the least. Baking, cleaning, shopping pressies and attending dinners and parties took all my energy and when the holidays began it really didnt calm down, Christmas must be the most exhausting holiday, sometimes it doesnt feel like a holiday at all. ;) But I did enjoy a couple of days off in between all the festivities.<br />

One of my resolutions for the new year is to blog more often, Im usually knackered when the toddler is in bed and spending my me time in front of the telly or doing chores around the house. When I really should be into my hobbies like blogging and sewing.So many things to do so little time...Sometimes I really miss the old days when I had all the time in the world to do me things, but after a good nights sleep and waking up to a smiling toddler all is forgotten. ;)<br />

Hia ladies! Long time no see! My computer let me down big time as one of the hard drives died.*Gaaaah* And needless to say it took some time to get my PC back on track and I lost all data stored on the hard drive. Booo! Well suits me right for not having a backup. ;) Ive learned my lesson now and have set up a regular backup session once a week. I wont let this happen one more time! Luckily none of my pics were on that particular hard drive but I lost some valuable data.<br />

And yes there is a new fox in town or mutiple I should say. ;) I was after this dress when in Copenhagen this autumn but the shop was closed so I had it shipped to me instead. :) I love the fox print of course but the dress itself came up short, I prefer below knee or just above knee length. So I felt a little out of sorts when wearing it but my colleagues paid me so many compliments and jokes I might add. :) Somehow this dress made them laugh, so I was the talk of the office that day. :P<br />
If you havent noticed already my cardi sticks to the term woodland animals as well, fox, squirrel and rabbit. So cute! :)<br />

Ever since I visited the White Stuff shop in Copenhagen earlier this autumn I havent been able to focus on another brand of clothing. Ive been a fan of WS for some time already but now Im fallen head over heels in love again. Its so bad Ive been fantasizing about setting up my own WS shop here in Norway (Unfortunately we dont have WS here). Im living in the countryside on a farm and my dream is to renovate one of our buildings to accommodate a shop of some kind. WS would be perfect in these rural surroundings. :) Crazy I know but a girl can dream right? dream big! ;)<br />
<br />
One thing I love about WS is that they are pouring out new collections only with a few weeks apart. Im a sucker for new stuff. :) Without further ado I present you my favourites from their three new winter collections, Gypsy caravan, Barnmaster and Winter fables.<br />

Hia ladies! How you doin? Im sorry for the infrequent posting (yet again) but turns out Im pretty exhausted juggling working full time, taking care of a toddler and run a household so come evenings Im a mess or couchpotato to be precise. ;) I will try to do a better job at blogging, bear with me please. :)<br />

Well as Im running from chore to chore I tend to favour the more practical outfits. For me such outfits consist of jeans/jeggings paired with a top/jumper. To prevent them from looking boring I try to wear an interesting and eyecatching top/jumper. This outfit is the perfect example of my preppy casual style. :) My sister spotted this top in Copenhagen and of course I couldnt leave the store without a frenchie on my chest!! :) A frenchieface covered in sequins, whats not to love. ;)<br />
<br />
What Im wearing:<br />
Top from Esprit (recent)<br />
Jeggings from Dr.Denim (recent)<br />
Shoes from Softinos (recent)<br />

As the weather has been pretty awful lately (rainstorms and a lot of rain, typical autumn) I havent got the chance to step outside for photos. So here are some indoors shots using my Iphone with my work office as backdrop. :) Looking at this outfit you might think where have the colours gone, hehehe. I guess the muted scandinavian style has rubbed off, but I can cope with it as long as there is a wolf involved. ;)<br />

Hia! Its not like I have chip on my shoulder these days but more like one on my chest and a pack down below. ;) Hehehe. This is to me one of my cutest outfit I have ever come up with, totally adorable. :) and maybe a little childish, but hey thats me. ;) When I bought the skirt I had totally forgotten about the squirrel cardi (too much clothes eh?) and I jumped of joy when I found it in the back of my closet by chance. :)<br />

The skirt is of course from Boden, no surprise there. :) There is even a squirrel dress too which Im lusting after of course. It was just released among the rest of the winter collection this week, lots of droolworthy items Id say. :) Well dont be shocked if I turn up in a squirrly dress sometime in the future, hihihi. ;) No surprise to my colleagues at the office as well, I think they must be sick of me wearing all kinds of creatures. :) My obsession with animal prints is starting to show for real. ;)<br />

I started my sewing class yesterday, yes Im going to learn how to sew clothes for my daughter and myself, preferably dresses and skirts if I manage. :) An aspiring seamstress but boy did I struggle yesterday, certainly Im not blessed in anything crafty. But I had a good time and learned a lot. Now I only have to make time to sit down and befriend my sewing machine, we are not on the best of terms yet. :P The rest of the class got homework but according to our teacher I apparently must be supervised when sewing. *blushes and hangs head down in shame* In other words a sewing disaster! Im wondering how this course is going to work out. ;) Stay tuned for more sewing bloooooopers. :P<br />

Uhm yea whats up with the title you might think. ;) Well Im just refering to my newly purchased skirt, look lots of doggies or greyhounds to be precise. ;) As a dedicated dog lover I just about grab anything doggierelated, especially when it comes to clothes. :) My heart belongs to the French Bulldog of course but greyhounds are pretty cool too. ;) Besides my closet is brimming of French Bulldogs lately, they seem to be a favourite print on clothes these days. More of that later,you`ll see. :)<br />

Boy, did I have a blast in Copenhagen!! Luuuuuuuuve that city, so beautiful, friendly and easy to get around. :) and not to mention the White Stuff shop, gosh I dont know how many hours we spent in that shop, hehehehee. The shop staff must have been sick of us in the end, occupying their fitting rooms for hours, giggling and trying on almost every item of clothing in the store. We behaved like children in a candystore, literally. :P Needless to say this skirt is from White Stuff. :) My love for WS has certainly hit another level *sparkles in my eyes* By the way WS is having a midsale now, up to 50 % off. I might have happend to buy me some more goodies. ;) Ups photobombed by one of our four cats, this one goes by the name of Blackie cause well she is black and all.......:P<br />

Hehehe looking quite smug about myself in my new skirt and oh new shoes as well! :) bought in Copenhagen, the brand is called Softinos, never heard of them before. I found them in a Fly London store, they are so soft its like walking on air. Im very very pleased with them! My sister and I bought the same shoes, hehehe she chose the black ones and I went for the grey. :) We sometimes happen to share the same taste in clothes and shoes but my sis stays clear of the bright colours which I thrive for. :)<br />

And speaking of White Stuff stores, Im actually planning on visiting one next week as Im off to Copenhagen, Denmark!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Im soooo excited you wouldnt believe it *jumping up and down* My sister and I are leaving husbands and kids at home and are treating ourselves a long weekend of shopping and relaxation (sleep yay!). Neither of us have been to Copenhagen before, its gonna be so much fun exploring the city and not to forget the shops. Shopping spree anyone? ;) It will be the first time Im away from my little one for a longer period of time, Im wondering how thats gonna feel. At least she will be safe and sound with her daddy taking good care of her. :)<br />
