Little Red Riding Cup

Don't you hate it when you have a nice hot drink, but then you get a text from your stalker, and that drink gets cold while you're busy figuring out how to save your friends this week? If the answer is yes then I have just the right thing for you:

It's a Red Coat drink sleeve that'll keep your Pretty Little Latte warm in style.  

And the best is, that you can make it yourself. Just head over to Spoonful.com and download the pattern and instructions. Have fun!

...Oh and how great was the Pretty Little Liars Halloween Special?

Book Smart

I simple shirt dress is always a smart look, but Tommy Hilfiger found a way to make it even smarter, by adding a whole library to it.

Royal Threads


My vacation is officially over, and as much as I would have loved to bring the castle home with me, I couldn't. But thanks to Zara's newest home collection I can at least add some royal flair to my living room:


How perfect are these throw pillows ?

Like Tourists Do...

Hello from Sweden! Yes Sweden, I'm on vacation in the lovely city of Örebro to visit my even lovelier friend Elin, and not even the lousy weather  could stop us from  some serious sightseeing: 

The Castle


modern arts meets history

I should just move in...

That does not look too comfortable...
our amazing castle tour guide

...and the ghost.



But today the weather was much nicer, and we went to the historic village Wadköping:

a mansion in the park

book shopping in Wadköping

lunch (sadly not ours)
more history....
