snart.

my sister dropped us off at the airport. as we were getting out the car, a huge gust of wind hit me. oh jesus christ it was cold. she laughed and said "it's cold...but dont worry soon you'll be in... the same weather! you might as well not leave. look there's sthlm (pointing at boston in the distance"...she's jabbing at the fact that she will be on a beach in indonesia in a couple of days, and i will be bundled up in sweden. go ahead mimi, poke fun. dont worry i have my acne jacket.

 snart flyger vi. soon my friends soon. going to board soon and then we're off to the land of ice. eh okay more like the land of recession. aka iceland. ill blog when i get to sweden. 

almost...

almost on my way. i am all packed. ready to go. so excited. wish i could snap my fingers and be there, but hopefully it will be an easy across the pond. my new ipod is loaded with sex&the city episodes, wallis and gromit, and a couple of movies. but what am i most excited about? starting (finally-and i mean finally) the third stieg larsson book. do you have any idea how long i have been trying to start it? months. and today is the day. so i may be wearing my fav transformers tee right now, but ill be flying in rugby by ralph lauren dress and some bally winter boots. im all blinged up with my favo bracelets. there is just one issue. i have to remove them all before i go through the metal detector. the people behind me always sigh or grunt in frustration. sorry peeps but it's what i do for fashion. or actually, it's what i do for me. 

off to iceland we go! then stockholm. 

nu kör vi.

okej okay. nu kör vi. ive been a liiiiitle busy the past wk, and my blogging appetite has been at an all time low. but now i am starting to rev my engines again, and i promise to get my act back together. i have a prof photographer on my hands (my dear mother), who has a great new camera, and i have a lot of adventures ahead.

so photos. stories. entries. the whole shabang i promise. 

as for boston? the weather is pure hell. there is about a foot of snow on the ground. not the fluffy, sweet kind. the wet, heavy, icy snow. my poor little sister is stuck in dallas after her flight got cancelled. hopefully she will fly tmrw. even tho we are expecting another 4 to 6 inches. as long as our plane takes off on monday night, i am fine with the winter weather. but if i miss xmas because of a lame storm, i may throw a fit.

goodnight.

old school.

growing up in new england, almost every child is a poster child for llbean. we had llbean backpacks, canvas totes, snow suits and duffel bags. well i want to bring the poster child prep look back. next smart purchase? a pair of these.  sure i own a pair of lame uggs (that are warm but heinous), and a heavy duty pair of sorrel winter boots, but i need something light to wear to work in the nasty slush of nyc weather. will i look like a prep school soccer mom? perhaps. but ill love the look. 

feber.

soooo one of my favorite swedish websites feber.se just got a whole lot snazzier. their layout is now extremely high tech. it's going to take some getting used to. especially to find my fav pages, but hopefully this only means that the content will get better and better. 

prada revealed.

if you were drooling over prada's angelic creations during milan's fashion wk then youre in luck because their campaign was just leaked. love the french twists. and the light box underneath the models really helps bring out the texture of all of the pieces. magical. wearable? not exactly. 

homebound.

good morning. it's 8:45 which means i have 15 minutes to get my butt, one suit case and two huge weekender bags out of my apartment, down the stairs of the 2/3 subway and onto a train to madison square garden. from there ill be bussing it up to beantown. why do these 15 minutes seem so torturous? perhaps because i went to bed at 2. yes 2. thank you holiday party season. well i guess it was also my own fault. i got home at 12, only to then start organizing myself. also, thought i plugged in my blackberry last night. but did it charge? no. because the actual charger was not plugged in. awesome. well thank goodness for bolt bus. plugs, internet, sleepy night night time? my cup of tea. speaking of which, i need to drink mine before it gets cold. 

tmrw.

it's 2am. you may ask what i am still doing up. that - i do not have the answer to. i went to an xmas party tonight and then hung out with my friends. gotta throw in some love for my pals before i leave for the home country. cannoooot wait. leaving for boston at 10am. then sweden on monday. 

almost...

i can see the light. long day at work. not especially long in terms of the work load but very long in my head. my mental state is already in vacation mode. 

just 3 days left till i leave for sweden. 

1 more day of work then leaving for boston. 

tack sophie.

jag håller med sophie när det gäller isabella löwengrip. 

"Hon verkade vara en intelligent, positiv, driven och målinriktad tjej med båda fötterna på jorden, men det har totalt ändrats de senaste månaderna! Jag vet att det är många därute som stör sig på Blondinbella och jag kan inte annat än att hålla med dem nu. Jag brukar aldrig kritisera eller klanka ner på andra människor här i bloggen men nu måste jag sätta ner foten. Blondinbella är inte längre en förebild för unga tjejer. Det började med hennes drickande som förskönades på bloggen och nu pratar hon bara om hur snygg hon är, att hon aldrig skulle kunna tänka sig att varken diska, städa, åka buss eller tunnelbana. Den tiden och energin lägger hon hellre på att shoppa. Och detta är hennes egna ord. Kolla bara hennes tv-dagbok på tv400. Jag såg de två första avsnitten igår och ja.. jag finner inga ord.."

la perla.

the la perla sample sale is ridiculous. i mean ridiculous. i found out about it since it is at the same space as the dvf sale was. 90% off. 15-20$ bras. 10-15$ underwear. whaaaaaaaaaaat? if you dont understand this, then maybe i should explain that la perla bras usually retail for $250-300. yes, expensive but it is also the most beautiful lingerie that you can find. 

tues-fri 10-7pm

260 5th avenue. (btw 28th and 29th)

dagens...sort of.

i know ive been lacking on the "dagens" photos like they do in sweden. but i just dont think my sister's olympus cuts it. i am waiting to get my canon back from the repair shop at best buy. then ill be on track again. until then, DEAL WITH IT. just kidding. but photobooth will do. so today? sweater by diane von furstenberg, comfy leggings and minnetonkas. i know i lack creativity at this time, but my exhaustion feeds my need for comfort. therefore, i will stay comfy at work until i feel the inspiration flowing again. check out the awesome framed vanity fair picture in the background. it's on loan (like a 2 yr loan) to me from my bro's gf who just emptied her office at conde nast (to go to business school). so sweet. 

RIP.

sad. very very sad. you know those small things that end up meaning so much more. well my fillippa k hat has gone missing. i think a cab may have stolen it or it was swallowed by a black hole. i cant find it anywhere, and i am extremely upset. i know, i know. it was free. it was black. it was plain. i can probably find a new one...but maybe i wont be able to! well when i turn my room upside down to pack later this week, i will look for it. until then, i am in mourning.

a new eiseley mixtape for your morning.
