swede.

im starting to sound like a broken record. i know i know. i shouldnt have promised that id be blogging a lot over xmas. well hello. im back. back in the states, and im feeling a little bit rotten that i didnt write at all over my holiday. the last couple of days i spent in stockholm were filled with inspiration just from walking through the street, shopping and people watching. i really enjoy the broad spectrum of sthlms style. there are those girlies from söder who all look the same with their skinny jeans, big tshirts and biker boots. then there are those östermalms girls with their fur hats, longchamp totes (or lv speedys) dark jeans and knee high flat boots. then there are those who break out of the stereotypes and try a little bit of both. i like the ones who mix the old style with the new and the edgy with the sweet. 

what my wallet and credit score are happy for is that i did not rape the sale racks as i could have. the winter sales in stockholm are pure madness. and ridiculous. unlike in the us when you see one or two racks on sale, at swedish boutiques everything is 40-70% off. i am talking everything. those things that arent even that old. i caught myself asking several times "are you sure its on sale?" i was pretty much in shock. i am feeling like a part of my soul is stuck at the NK sale. i didnt come out of there with the wool tiger of sweden coat i wanted or the whyred anorak. i am crying on the inside. 

okay i can quite being so shallow now. i mean i did just write a whole paragraph on sales. uh...i apologize. but the plane ticket to stockholm just for sales would be so worth it.
