Outfit & Robbie Williams

August 29, 2013~ adventures, outfit of the day

5cThis is what I wore to Robbie Williams concert a little more than a week ago. I felt really comfy and moderately hot, too, if I may say so myself. Couldn’t exactly have worn heels, considering I thought I was going to run around on grass, pushing and shoving on my way to the stage. In reality, there was no pushing and shoving going on and there’s a fair chance that Robbie didn’t notice me from, ehm, 60,000 people away, but whatever, maybe next time. It’s not like I secretly wished I could have Robbie Williams’ babies anyway*…

Me and H got there pretty much right after everyone else did so if it wasn’t for my darling G-A and her mom, we would probably not have seen anything at all. But they saved us a spot next to them so we had enough space and a great view.  The concert was great – it’s probably the hardest I’ve laughed, the loudest I’ve sung and the most fun I’ve had in quite a while. He performed all his greatest hits along with his newest ones, some of which I didn’t know then but know now. The show was great and he probably put in an extra effort for Tallinn, considering the show he put on her was filmed and streamed live in cinemas here and there. What can I say – he’s not as young as he used to be, but he doesn’t let it show. Except when he’s making fun of himself, in which case it’s just hilarious. Another thing: every now and then I found myself laughing our loud at RW’s jokes when pretty much everyone around me had their stone faces on. What’s up (your butts), Estonians? Dry sense of humor or poor understanding of the Queen’s English?

I had the time of my life and I’m glad I remembered how much I like Robbie Williams the night before the concert. They played his hits on Sky Plus (a local radio station) for two entire days and I found myself singing along to every single one and dancing like no one was watching in the kitchen. The neighbors probably were and I’m definitely going to have to put up some god damn curtains one of these days…

Night out

August 20, 2013~ mobile blog

All prettied up and on my way to see Robbie Williams in concert with my man and a dear friend. I have a feeling I’m gonna have a wonderful time tonight!

Sorry I puked bitterness all over our blog in my last post – I sometimes boil over, but all in all I’m really happy and appreciative. Why wouldn’t I be? I wish everyone had enough of that in their lives… 🙂

I don’t want to live on this planet anymore

August 20, 2013~ chit-chat

Apparently, sometimes trying to be the better person in a situation where the other one seems to be either pure evil or just really-really damaged, is just stupid. Trying to stay out of someone’s way because you know it will be paved with lies, betrayal and most of all, hurt. Trying to take a step back to avoid people you love getting hurt in the process. None of it helps – you still stand with pretty much nothing, because you didn’t lie and throw dirt. What did Jesus mean by turning the other cheek? Apparently, all that ever does is bite you in the ass. 🙂

And please stop making stuff up about me so you can excuse your own hateful and bitter behavior. The truth always comes out, you should know that by know!

Stockhome: Shopping, vol 4

August 20, 2013~ adventures, ostlemine

shop
Ring and earrings from H&M, necklace and bracelet from Lindex

On our last day of shopping we were mainly looking for plain sweats for the little one (so we can print logos on them and make her Lowlifer {LINK} sweats and t-shirts for the car event we’re going to in Finland) and pretty presents for our moms (they’re both fantastic and supportive mothers and even better grandmothers), but ended up buying a lot more. It wasn’t all spontaneous, I really was looking for more jewelry, H really did need jeans (forgot to take a picture, but we got them from H&M and they look really stylish. H picked them out all on his very own while I was going up and down an escalator with our restless “stairoholic” of a daughter…) and shorts and I really did need a pair of casual boots (ones that don’t have a killer heel). I only have one plain black bikini so I really did want another one… Basically, whatever we buy, we always desperately need!
shop2
Neon shorts from KappAhl, the ones to the right are from Stadium (cannot come up with the brand, my brain is in sleepy-mode – I’m writing this post at 1:30 a.m.)
shop1
Both pairs are from Skopunkten – I love-love-love the boots and needed the studded pair (they barely cost anything, 149 SEK counts as nothing) for throwing on when going to the store or out with the pooch. If you’ve ever put on a pair of classic Chuck Taylors, you know that the laces are not an easy match if you’re just going out for a second….

 shop3
All of the above (except the sweatpants on the pictures in the second row, those are from Lindex) is from H&M and logos are being printed on them as we speak.  I discovered today, when we were on our way to drop them off, that I had had a tiny retardation – why do I get size 80 sweats for a child who’s already 84 cm tall? They’re definitely not too small yet, but 86 would’ve lasted a lot longer. No point in wallowing in self-pity, though, I’ll just embrace the fact I was probably dropped at birth or something. 🙂

Lets go to the beach, beach…

August 16, 2013~ mobile blog

Sure, I hoped for wonderful weather during our stay, but not even in my wildest dreams could I have thought that we’d be this lucky. The sun is really hot and the sky is clear blue. 🙂

I’m taking full advantage of the sun and working on what’s left of my tan, everyone else (H, ladybug my little sis’ and the Pooch) went for a swim. Jellybean was covered head to toe in a thick layer of sand (I don’t think she could even see through it) so they went to wash it off in the sea before we head back home but ended up catching the waves for quite a while. Paradise, I tell you!

It’s time for lunch and ladybug’s naptime soon, after which we’ll probably clean up the house (being this close to the sea means sand literally everywhere), prepare a marinade for the chicken wings we’re barbecuing tonight and reorganize our sleeping arrangements for our guests’ arrival tonight. There’s really nothing to complain about, except maybe that there are a few more people I wish were here with us! Surely we’ll have them over next time. 🙂

Anything to entertain the kid

August 15, 2013~ chit-chat, daddy's little girl, mobile blog

Ladybug wakes up from her nap, grumpy as hell. She whines and cries, no amount of cuddles and kisses will help. I have a spontaneous thought:

Me: Would you like daddy to dance for you?
Ladybug: Yes!

So H dances like noone is watching and the little one laughs hysterically.

Problem: solved.

TOOTD: Little miss fabulous in Gant

August 14, 2013~ outfit of the day: toddler

tootThis is what the little one wore on our last night in Sweden, when we were on our way to spend the evening over at our friends’ house.  Her posh little dress is a gift from my mom and we bought her the sneakers on one of our shopping sprees (the last one you haven’t seen pictures of yet).  Laid back and adorable with a pinch of fierce – just like our Jellybean. 🙂

Stockhome: Shopping, vol 2 & 3

August 9, 2013~ adventures, ostlemine

vol23

The shopping bags at the top are from our brief visit to a shopping mall in Bromma, where we got H a pair of loafers from Scorett and Converse for me from another shoe store. The little striped paper bag is from a tiny interior design boutique and is a little gift for auntie Madiken so I can’t exactly show you what’s inside yet…
vol231 I needed a new pair of Chuck Taylors because I just threw out my previous ones (this is my fourth or fifth pair) before we came to Sweden. They were 20% off, so yay for me!
The little ones are the special something I told you about yesterday – tiny white Converse are a rarity and can’t be found anywhere. I know because we’ve been looking for a while. Mom had been to NK before to ask them if they had any, but without luck. This time we brought home a pair! How cool and cute are tiny Converse, huh?
vol232
I wanted more everyday shinies to spice up my outfits with so I popped by H&M and got a statement necklace and two sets of rings. A 5-pack of colorful socks tagged along, too. I’m sure I’m not the only one who owns a sock-hungry washing machine?
vol233
This what I found for myself – a pair of black, skinny Crocker jeans that look super tight but feel so incredibly comfortable. It’s like wearing a pair of cotton tights! The boots are from Rizzo on Biblioteksgatan. Mommy found them for me and they were a real catch. They initially cost 1995 SEK (230 EUR), but I got them on sale for 495 SEK (57 EUR). They’re elegant, feminine and really cool all at the same time. Love them! vol234 I had my mind set on a blouse or top from Zara but nothing fit like I wanted it to so we headed to the kids’ department in stead. We found a adorable wool coat and gorgeous little shoes for the little lady.
vol235
In addition to our “Find H some proper jeans”-quest, we also needed shoes. That’s even more of a challenge with H, he has all sorts of criteria for what he wants his shoes to look like. We found three pairs he liked from Din Sko. I can’t believe it – it’s not even Christmas yet and I still got my Christmas miracle…

That’s it for today, feel free to tell me what you think about the stuff we got and the posts I publish from Stockholm. If there’s anything more you would like to know or see pictures of, just let me know! I know you’re all still here (WordPress tells me so), but I haven’t heard much from you guys in a while! 😉

Stockhome: A day out on the town

August 8, 2013~ adventures, daddy's little girl, ostlemine

tgif4We spent a lovely (and looong) day walking all around in the center of Stockholm, shopping and treating ourselves to some late lunch at one of my favorite restaurants, Friday’s in Kungsträdgården. My feet are killing me and my arms hurt so I’m really starting to get why some people consider shopping a real workout.  I showed H all my favorite nooks and crannies, where I went to school, my favorite places, parks & cafes. I’ll show you all of what we bought in a post tomorrow, but for now, I’ll leave you to all the pretty snapshots we took of our wonderful day. 🙂tgif9 The minute we stepped foot outside the subway station in Kungsträdgården, we were greeted in a proper manner – it was time for the daily changing of the guard. I felt like a real tourist in my own (former) home town. Fun!
tgif8
The first mall we went to was NK – the most exclusive shopping mall in Stockholm. Why? We needed something that doesn’t seem to be available in any other stores. You’ll see what I’m talking about tomorrow!
tgif7
tgif11 Friday’s is really worth the visit! tgif3 There was a 20 minute waiting list for the tables on their terrace so we had a drink while we waited. tgif16 tgif13 Daddy and his little girl trying to decide what to eattgif15 H had a southern jalapeno-burger…tgif12 …me and mom had the chicken BLT sandwich…tgif … and the little lady had a bowl of broccoli-cheese soup and a slice of garlic bread (and, as you can see, she also stole some fries from daddy’s plate). We were all truly satisfied with our meal! tgif1 tgif14The little lady was already really tired, but we still needed wanted to go to Zara and the little boutiques on Biblioteksgatan. We bribed her with ice cream and it worked! Questionable parenting, I agree, but it really worked like a charm!
