Christmas 2011 OOTD



Well kinda the outfit from Christmas. It's the last day of Xmas and tomorrow it's back too work. My family has gone back to the town I grew up in and it's all quite again. So now me and my boyfriend have rented at movie from iTunes and are relaxing on the sofa enjoying home made candy.
I don't know about you all but I am never eating this much food again! Well not in this year anyways ;o) Again merry Christmas everyone! Hope you have had a great one with lots of love.

What I Wore :
Gray tunic top - H&M BiB - old
Floral scarf - from Vera Moda - in store
Black skirt - from H&M - available online
Black sequin vest - from South - eBay
Grey/Nude boots - from eBay


Merry Christmas!

..or as we say Gleðilig Jól! I have had a busy couple of days. Me and my boyfriend hosted for the first time Christmas at our house. So we have had our hands full with making dinner, deserts and baking + entertaining our family. My father tried for the first time - the Wii! Needless to say he had a great time. I don't need to worry about what to get him for his birthday ;o) 

I must say I have been spoiled rotten this year. I think I got way expensive gift and all gift I wished for! I will post pictures of the gifts on a later date. Today is what we call the 2nd day of Christmas (the 26th of December) we in Europe open our presents on the eve of Christmas (the 24th) - one day before the people in the states - why? I do not know. I have to Google that later. 

I am, as I am writing this, making dinner - sheep meat in a special faroese way - the sheep are slathered and we hang the meat up in a barn like house for about 6 weeks to dry. It's something in the faroese air, I think the salt from the sea that gives the meat a strong smell and taste that most foreigners don't like but it makes our mouths water. I will provide photos later too :o) If only we had smell-o-vision.

Today I have two old OOTD's to show you. It's two laid back outfits that I wore two weeks ago but never posted because I didn't think they were all that special. But I have been a bad blogger these days and haven't been taking photos. But I will take photos of my Christmas outfit today and post them later or tomorrow. Until then hope you are all having a great Christmas :o)

Today : One lucky girl!

So I wrote before that I was drooling over a zig zag sequin dress from Evans that I regret never buying. And two days ago I found one on eBay listed in my size - and guess what?! I WON IT! *WIII* I started this morning feeling sorry for myself since I woke up with a fever and had to stay home all day. But I've done some massive retail therapy damage too my VISA. Please forgive me bank account person! I've in the last 24 hour manage to get my hands on 3 clothing items I regret never buying so I think Christmas came early for this lucky girl! :o) So I called my boyfriend and said that he didn't have too think about my Christmas gift I already bought 3! I leave you with all my precious!

Christmas Party with the Girls

Christmas time!

So last weekend I had a Christmas party with my friends. We went to a local restaurant a had dinner after that we went to one of the girls that lived nearby. 
I do have to to give my apologies for not being that much around lately. But it's December and I work in a store. Which means working everyday and long days so I don't have a lot of spare time right now. I can't wait until the 24th (yes we in Europe celebrate Christmas a day early!) 

Until the next time - stay safe in these cold and dark days!
And thanks for stopping by.

What I wore :

Purple tights - size 2 from Evans
Orange midi skirt - size 24 from ASOS Curve
Black body stock from a local store
Leopard cardigan - thrifted


On my nails I have two colors from Kleancolor - I have too get back
to you on the color names. I have short term memory lately.





Necklace is from Vera Moda and I've had it for years. The dog you have seen before,
it's my fathers German Shepard - Tór. He is about 7 years old and was a Christmas
present for my dad from me and my sister. So I thought he should re-appear in this post.
