pre birthday celebration

My boyfriend's semester unfortunately starts with really bad timing. His birthday is next week and he's leaving this week. Anyway, I celebrated him a bit this Sunday and I just booked dinner for us the night before he leaves. We're having sushi in a place I've never tried before but had recommended. Luckily the weather was quite nice so we could sit in my garden and have some key lime pie that I baked and lemonade from Aarstiderne. The key lime pie was actually really good but we were pretty full after lunch and soft ice. We had such a good day yesterday; lunch at Holy Smoke, ice cream outside Sofiero, a long walk admiring the rhododendrons in Sofiero and then we had some cake at my place. This Monday morning, which is a day off in Denmark and Sweden, I'm fixing lots of stuff and my Mum and I made really exciting plans that you'll hopefully soon see on my blog!

mum's birthday breakfast

It's my Mum's birthday today and luckily I have no school. I made her breakfast in bed; strawberries, raspberries and blackberries, an organic breakfast bun from the local bakery, a layered (important) carrot cake, a latte macchiato, apple and elderflower juice and Laurent Perrier champagne. That champagne is so good! Especially for breakfast since it has a really full taste. Now we're getting ready to receive some deliveries, go for a walk and tonight we might go out for dinner at Pluto or get some sushi. My Mum arrived last night and she's spending the weekend at my place. I'm so excited and happy that she's here. Happy Birthday Mum!

cheers to 2017

Happy New Year! Thanks for following me this year! It's been a super busy but fun and challenging year! I hope 2017 is going to be just a little more chill. I think moving in to my apartment will save me quite a lot of time! I hope you have fun plans tonight, I'm going to a party with my boyfriend and if I know myself right, I'll probably forget to take pictures...

burberry christmas

I completely forgot to show you one of the gifts I bought my boyfriend this Christmas! When I opened the mailbox (which was golden on the inside btw) I instantly regretted not getting myself a Burberry present for Christmas... It's so gorgeous and over the top perfect. On the inside there were a pair of boxer shorts in the classic Burberry check.

merry christmas 2016

Merry Christmas dear readers! (I had to add the 2016 in the caption even though it looks a little ugly because I hate when my blog posts have the same name...) Anyway, I hope you all have a lovely Christmas today or tomorrow. We're celebrating Christmas today and now we're off for a walk in the not-so-christmassy weather. Then we're going to make chocolate confections, prep some Danish Christmas food (roast pork, caramelized potatoes, red cabbage, risalamande, cherry sauce) and then we're singing Christmas carols and dancing around the tree. It feels like we're the only family still doing that but it's such a nice tradition! The Christmas tree we decorated turned out very well in my opinion, we always opt for a Disney styled Christmas tree. And then we're opening the presents! My sister brought so many Japanese gifts that I'm really excited about. I also look forward to see people's reactions when they open my gifts, hopefully they'll be happy (but you never know lol). Merry Christmas!

moët rosé impérial time

I did something really exciting today! I'm super happy and excited! I can't wait! I still think it's quite surreal and I can't believe it. But I'm going to tell you all soon enough!

2 1/2 years

My boyfriend and I celebrate 2 1/2 year anniversary today (a bit late due to illness). We make a bigger deal of every 1 1/2 year than 1 year because we are not usually together during our real anniversaries... And it's more fun to go and have dinner during the summer (in my opinion). I'm wearing a new dress that I've been wanting for ages! It's from a Thai brand called Poem and I really adore it! All the lines really are in the right places to accentuate curves and slimmer areas... We had a lovely dinner at Pålsjö Matbar in Helsingborg. Pålsjö Krog has the best view over the beach and the food was delicious too. We also had a couple of glasses of champagne. Thanks for being mine babe, I love you.

graduation party prep

Today it's my little sisters graduation party and things are pretty hectic at home. We've been decorating all morning and noon and I was in charge of balloons and flowers and soon we're going to go get the food (there were lots more than in this little tent - we had 4 different tents plus decorations indoor). We're having 60 guests tonight so we've ordered catering from K Gränd. I can't wait until the guests have arrived and things will cool down so I can relax with a glass of Palmer Champagne and enjoy the evening...

birhtday presents & palmer champagne

We started off our birthday weekend with some Palmer & Co. champagne and gift unwrapping. I got so many gorgeous things! Thank you! I'll show them to you later. Today I unpacked lots of different stuff, cleaned my room and relaxed a little bit. It feels like months since I last actually relaxed ! So I think I really deserved it. Tomorrow we're going on a small trip to have some delicious food and on Sunday I'll probably go to work.

birthday dinner in rungsted harbour

My sweet Grandparents took me out for dinner on my birthday today. We had dinner at the restaurant No. 22 in Rungsted Harbour and the food was lovely. We had moules as a shared starter, then I had plaice and we finished off with a soft ice. It was really good and cozy and the weather was really nice too, luckily!

happy 19th birthday

Happy Birthday Sweet Little Sister! I'm so sorry I can't be with you on your birthday (I'm working). But I really look forward to our combined birthday weekend and I can't wait to give you your birthday presents! Love you and miss you!

veuve & vuitton

Are you ready for the weekend? It's finally Friday and I have pretty exciting plans this weekend. Today I'm going to take my car for a ride since it's the first day without winter tires in Sweden and go shopping. Then I'll have dinner with my boyfriend and his sister and watch a movie or something. Tomorrow we're going to have lunch in Elsinore and go visit Louisiana. Afterwards, we'll meet a good friend for cocktails and Sunday is supposed to be a pretty relaxed day with some studying, of course... Picture is of my LV and one of my favourite champagnes; Veuve Clicquot.

lexington presents

Just some gifts my sister and I got my Mum for her Birthday. I bought white Lexington plates with navy details and they are so pretty! Packaging continuing the maritime theme...

summerbird & champagne

What better way is there to have a little evening celebration than to have petite organic Summerbird chocolate whipped cream buns that taste like rhubarb and Veuve Cliquot? Perfect middle of the week treat! Pics from my Mums birthday celebration yesterday. We're going to Malmoe today to have lunch at a burger joint that looks pretty amazing. And I'm going to go for a shopping round in Zara, Factory and Lush too. Updates are coming up!

love letters

Happy Valentine's Day Sweethearts! Did you send someone a love letter today? I sent this one and I actually pretty much nailed the lip mark in the first shot... It's made with the perfect red Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté Lipstick.

happy new 2016

Happy New Year! I hope you all had a fabulous evening and that 2016 will be a wonderful year with lots of blogging, travelling and shopping!

christmas tree

The Christmas tree is up and ready! Our Christmas tree is always multicoloured and sort of Disney styled. I can't wait to dance around the tree tomorrow, are you still keeping that tradition? Most of my friends don't do it anymore and I think it's a huge part of Christmas night. Other than decorating the tree, I've been busy all day with preparations, gift wrapping and stuff like that...

happy halloween

Happy Halloween! Here are some pics of the finished Jack O'Lantern, I actually think it's the prettiest (read: scariest) one I've made so far. This year I'm not dressing up and going out since we have plans in the morning... Stay tuned!

happy midsummer

Happy Midsummer to all the swedes! I've been super busy at work all day today and I look forward to a relaxed evening!

pretty small gifts

Here's a small gift compilation from the weekend. I got my absolute fave hair product: the Kérastase Crystal Sculpt that makes my hair very light, breezy and lovely smelling. I also got a gorgeous Carré citrine Gilded Marvel bracelet and a Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture lipstick in No. 6 Rose Bergamasque. I tried it on today and it is already a new favourite! It's perfect for everyday since it goes well with my skin tone and gives me a natural but luxe look. Perhaps, I'll make a blog post about that later...
