Colour blocking

I love to play around with colours in my outfits, Im especially fond of colourblocking and this month's theme at EBEW suits me just fine. :) If you havent allready guessed, its colour blocking. ;)

A close up, please excuse the headless chicken shots, both my hair and face were not cooperative at the time.

My favourite item in this attire must be the shoes, I adore these yellow beauties. :)

What I wore:

Cardigan from B-Young
Top from H&M
Skirt from Boden
Flats from Fly London

Im linking up with Visible Monday at Not Dead Yet Style and the Colour blocking challenge at EveryBodyEveryWear (EBEW).

Christening


On Sunday a fortnight ago I attended the christening to my sister's youngest child, my dearest baby niece. :) It was a rainy day so had to snap some pics indoors before we dashed off to church. This dress is a favourite of mine,simply gorgeous, nothing less. :)


My mum in her traditional Norwegian costume, holding her cute as a button granddaughter, the first one in our family, we have all fallen head over heels in love with this baby girl, fussing over her constantly. :)


I volunteered to make some cakes for the party taking place later in the day. :) I made a red velvet cake along with some pink (very) cupcakes. The frosting should have been more pastel pink but I added too much colour...ups... ;) It didnt affect the taste though, *nom nom* :P

The lovely decorated table at the venue where the party was held.



And on to some more outfit pics..




What I wore:

Cardigan from Mango (new)
Dress from Dorothy Perkins (new)
Turquoise pumps from Pataugas

Up in the sky


A sunday in the beginning of June we attended an airshow at the local airport. This event was arranged to celebrate the airport being 75 years! :) I have always been fascinated by planes so I was quite excited! :) Me and nearly 35000 visitors during the weekend, very popular show indeed!! :)


A closeup of the same plane as in the first picture. This is an Antonov.


One of my favourite planes at the show, a seaplane called Catalina G-PBYA.


I particulary liked the lady in the front. ;)


Here I am then, posing as miss pick me up, *laughs* Dont I look the part? *lol* Im workin this very typical Norwegian attire, a parka jacket with jeans and sneakers. My parka is somewhat unusual in colour, most tend to wear black, brown or grey. But Im all for bright colours as you may know, this colour is called arctic. Although it was a sunny day, a cold wind was blowin so I resorted to my parka and hoodie with jeans.


One of the highlights during the day was this acrobat perfomance by the british team called Aerostar Formation. I dont know how many times I ooohed and aaaahed, a spectacular show indeed!!







More pictures to come in another post. :)
