My little tinkerbell...

Well I am surprised I haven't told you about my dog. . . . Bjalla :)
She is the funniest dog you will ever hear of and to top that she also has the greatest personality! She is now three and a half years old and she still acts like a little puppy! She can´t get enough of hugs and kisses and never gets tired of chasing the darn cat that keeps interrupting her daily beauty-sleep!
She is also to beautiful for some to handle. . . like her boyfriend that lives on the next corner. she drives him crazy every time she steps out of the house and when they meet it is so cute and romantic! But she is also a bit of a diva and cant spent all of her time with him, she also has to make room in her busy schedule of power naps on other stuff to go chase the gooses and ducks down by the lake. She is a sophisticated lady that does not let silly stuff get in her way of having a great day. She LOVES ice-cream and lying in the sun on a hot summer day. Like I said she is not a very ordinary dog...
I loooove taking pictures of her and have kind of trained her in standing still when I want to get the perfect shot ;)
Here are a few moments stolen from my beautiful tinkerbell´s life...

Cutest nose ever!

Curious. . .

On a hot summer day :)

Smily as always. . .

Summertime!

Summer is the time of doing nothing! And when you do something it is only supposed to be one of the things you love.. so me and my friend went ahead and took endless summer-pictures!
Here are a few of them :)

Shoes off!

H&M angel, nothing but H&M clothes. . .

Flower girl...

SALE!

Who doesn't love sales? The thing that you have always wanted and made specials trips to the mall for just to admire because you would never even dream of buying it because it is so expensive suddenly drops down to 50% of the original price. . . maybe more? 

Well today I went to the sales and "saved" money on all of the good prices! :) It was like finding a treasure for me! 

here are some pictures from todays treasure hunt . . .

My beautiful Topshop rings

 3 jeans bought today . . . life is good :)

 The fabrics in two of the t-shirts I bought.

There where of corse more but all of those pictures and clothes just do not fit to this one little blog ;)

Rainyday shopping...

Ever had a day that you simply just wanted to go buy your self something nice because of some crappy reason? Well that is what it was for me yesterday. It was pouring outside and I decided to go spend some money on something I had no need for just because I wanted to buy it.

 

I bought glamour simply because Adele was on the front page and a cupcake-book (I added it on my todo list for the summer to bake endless supplies of delicious cupcakes) I also bought the canvas to get my self back in business because I have not painted in a while.(planning to paint a peacock :) ) The little bowls and the fork where just to tempting I had to have It (good to put cupcake sprinkles in ;) ) And last but not least I bought my first lipstick (brilliant red) and a new eyeshadow because I broke my old one :( (and it was on sale! )     

My pretty new cocoa mug :)

Rainy day lunch ...

Adele!

My friends recently started talking about this singer named Adele that was supposed to be so fantastic and awesome... Me being me, so stubborn that I did not want to give in to that fling everyone was having for that woman. But finally my friend forced me to get to know more about her and I finally fell in love. Her music is almost the only thing I listen to(and at this moment I am very close to being obsessed to ONLY listen to her music I literally storm to the radio if it dares to play anything else and turn it off) I highly recommend her and am going nuts waiting for some more! :D

Here is my favorite song with her:

Home sweet home...

well then, I´m finally home from my training camp in Italy! And it was amazing!!
Of corse I was more tired then I have ever been in my whole life because we trained two times a day for 3 hours and went out jogging every morning earlier then you can imagine! but it was all worth it :) We all had so much fun and the team spirit was to the roof!
We even changed out of our normal routine every once in a while :D 
there was the time when we went to the water-park  Atlantica and there was the creepiest water-slide I have ever been to! I felt sick every time I went in it but it was also so much fun that I just kept going and going and going :)
And also one evening we went to the cutest local market and because we had no time during the camp to go shopping we just went wild in it and ran trough it like we where crazy!
And we got real italian pizza one time when we went out for dinner and it was so delicious and perfect I can´t really describe it much... 
Of corse there where more things we did beside those things and train. Like going to the beach every day and jumping into the pool more times then I can count and working on our tan while doing that :) 
Like I said before It was amazing and I do not regret a thing! :)
Now when I am home (asking for ravioli the minute I step trough the door despite of the fact that i had basically lived on pasta the whole week I was in Italy) I only have wonderful memories from that trip and will never forget them.
( I will add pictures from the trip later on )

Cupcakes!

A few weeks ago me and my friend where studying and we baked the best cupcakes I have ever tasted! And they looked sooo pretty to! 

Here is the recipe:

1 cup margarine

1 cup powdered sugar

1 1/2 cup flower

4 tablespoons cocoa powder

2 teaspoons baking powder

4 eggs

1/2 cup medium dark chocolate (ad extra if you are a chocoholic like me)

How to:

You preheat the oven in 170 degrees celsius. The recipe is for 18 cupcakes so find 18 cupcake-forms.

Mix together the eggs and powder sugar until the stirring is light. Then mix together all of the other ingredients but leave the best for the last (the chocolate)Mix it together until the dough is soft and then put the chocolate in. Then just put the dough in the forms and pop it in the oven for 17-20 minutes. The let them cool for a while before you attack them the way I did :) 

Cream:

1 cup powdered sugar

1/2 tablespoon cocoa powder

1/2 cup butter

Mix together and wolla!

Enjoy!  :)

Faith is...

A few years ago I discovered how fun it is to paint and I have been doing that ever since. I guess i was 8 years old when i first started for real and now I am 15 years old and I think i have made some progress going from trying to draw the painting on the canvas with crayons thinking it was a brilliant idea, to where i am now. This is something that I do for my self and for the joy of it, it´s so relaxing and let´s my mind run free for a change. 

Here are some pictures of my newest painting that I painted for my big sister as a housewarming gift :)

It has an deeper meaning for me and my family because afterwards we discovered that the birds describe the characters of every single one of my mom´s siblings so it was kinda like a family tree for her. And I simply adore the quote on the painting and really think it gives it the final touch.

(I know there are cupcakes on the pictures but they had just come out of the oven and simply looked so good i could´t resist including them on the pictures)

I would LOVE to hear your thoughts!

Shoe love = Kronkron

I am certain that i am not the only one that loves kronkron. First of all it´s a shoe store and that´s a weak spot in my case. And the shoes are all so unique, colorful and everything is flowing with bows leather an other girly stuff! The second i laid eyes on one pair in the window at the shop I have been in love and never stopped. It is almost like the shoes get prettier and prettier every year! They are so hard to resist and to top it off the store also sells purses, bags, clothes and jewelry and more that makes it even harder to decide what you want the most... But hey is that not what fashion is about not being able to decide what you want to wear because there are so many options it makes you dizzy? on second thought that is the thing that makes fashion fun!

Here are four little pieces of heaven.

"A garden dream"

I just discovered an amazing online store called Ruche. I just love their clothes because they have an unique vintage touch. And I basically fell flat on my face when i saw all of their beautiful accessories, they are all so one of kind and have all kinds of lovely roses on them and creative shapes. I am a bling lover but despite of that every girl should find something that she likes in that store. I also like that they have an online magazine for all of their clothes collections and my favorite one was "a garden dream". I highly recommend that store and here are some examples from the garden dream collection.
