My mom delighted me today with the idea of us, the mother-daughter duo, going somewhere, to some city or country and just shop, enjoy ourselves and spend time together. I love my mom to bits, so I said yes to her straight away! I applied to a college called Menntaskólinn við Hamrahlíð and I am very positive on being accepted and I hope for the sake of myself that I get to go there. I was so sure I would be accepted that I checked the school calendar and saw there was a fall-break in October, the 13th, 14th and the 17th to be precise. It all came together so naturally. This was the time for us to go! We haven't decided yet where we are going but we're looking around for special offers and stuff like that so where we go isn't really up to us. It doesn't hurt that my mom's best friend works at Icelandair and is a booking manager of some sort and we get updated with new offers and discounts every week. We narrowed it down though to a couple cities that we are really interested in exploring, some we've been to before, some not. The lis consists of the following: Milan, Paris, Stockholm, Barcelona, New York, Boston or Frankfurt. I mean we're not going on a bonding/shopping/sightseeing trip to Faroe Islands. Am I right? I myself would love to go somewhere new and inspiring because I've only travelled in the states and Alicante, Spain a tourist wonderland with sand and theme parks, water world and not a slight bit of culture. I want to go somewhere where we don't know the native tongue but we are capable of saving ourselves out of sticky situations. It doesn't hurt that I speak Icelandic, Danish, Swedish, English and Spanish! I'd love to know what is your favorite city, and where you like to travel or where you want to go!

Love Always

 

Hahah saw this photo on Vi.Sualize.Us the other day and laughed! I love the thought of being pregnant though. I can't really wait. I've been having this feeling all week how wonderful it is to be a mother. I am sick though, fever, cough and cold hence it might be that!

Geez guys I'm sorry, I haven't posted in a LONG time! There is a reason though. I am graduating from high school and the graduation trip was this week! We went to Þórsmörk, 3 hours away from the capital, Reykjavík. I was GORGEOUS! It was though where the volcano erupted last year, like next to the volcano so there was alot of ash everywhere. Everything was so green, it's been raining nonstop for like 2 months. We went hiking, swimming in this really cool natural pool and ate great food with great people. My emotions were so mixed, I was so happy with everyone, my friends, the teachers and the great time we were having but the feeling that this all is coming to an end was inevitable. I've been thinking this past year how grateful I am to be leaving, even though it was great I just want to move on. These past couple of days made me rethink all that! To make matters worse the majority of my class is going to the same college. I on the otherhand, the prone to be different am going to a college where only  5 people from my school are going. It's been my goal ever since I knew what college was to go  there. I have never wanted to go to the other popular one but yesterday I suprised myself with the thought that I could escape this sadness and just go with the flow and never need to say goodbye. I stopped myself and decided that there just comes a time where you need to move on, and that it usually just doesn't feel right but must be done.
  On to a bit more positive note. Marc Jacobs is getting the lifetime award from CFDA on Monday! Sofia Coppola is going to present it to him. Aaah love them both! I decided to celebrate by posting a couple of my favorite photos of him and his ad campaigns, because frankly they are amazing!

 I love love love the ads! They are so raw and spontaneuos. He on the otherhand is such a stud. Love his necklace!
Love Always

It is such a coincidence that all my favorite blog-reading-friends-followers-therformewhenIneed have names that are names for something else! Kat, Rosie and Skye this one is for you guys! Oh and everyone go to Kat's blog Accoudrements and join her very first giveaway! She has a lovely clutch/purse, pearls and a brooch-all up for grabs, all vintage and antique, some great stuff!

Love Always, 

and oh, in the last one I wanted to grasp the fact that summer is finally here in Iceland a fact I couldn't be more happy with!

My love for shoes is undescribable. I love them to pieces. And you know what they always say! The more the merrier! My love today via leather, soles, laces and buckles:

 These lovely flats Chiara from The Blonde Salad got for her birthday.

These flatforms from Honestly WTF. 

Love Always

Yay! My first post with photos that I took! I don't have a good camera but it's good on the go for things I see and want to share so I am not going to let it bother me! Haha, I have to tell you guys a thing I do now. If anything negative or relately sad comes up in my head I flick my finger and shout in my mind "Not NOW!". And believe me it works, it's amazing!

 

I cut letters out of a magazine and put on the wall. I love it. It faces my bed so I always see it when I wake up.

 

My new Camper shoes. I love them. Camper shoes are all so comfy, cute and durable. They are darker though than shown on the picture. I love how the laces are a couple shades lighter.

 

An ad in Nylon. I love the lips! And I would die for red hair like that!

My new Lemongrass Swatch watch! It pops up any outfit and it looks just the right amount of silly.

Love Always!

Love Always, keep reading my dear readers!

I am loving today so very much for so many reasons. I came home from a 5-day ski trip with my school which was very pleasant and amazing but it is so amazingly good and calming to come home and sleep in your own bed and get back into your daily routine. I love that I came home to 1417 new, fresh, glamorous posts on bloglovin. I gathered a couple of photographs that I especially loved while scattering and sorting through each blog post. Enjoy!

 

I found this one on teen vogue. Her name is Barbo Andersen. I absolutely love this dress it sits really well on her body and it such a snowy white color. I love that she paired it with white tights and not the usual black. 

 This strikingly beautiful lady has perfect skin that I would die for. It saddens me because it reminds me of how my skin is. I guess I need to take better care of it. Taken from tiny lights.

Angelica Blick my new favorite personal style blogger! She is so fabulous, gorgeous, yummy, scrumpteous, amazing and such a stunning beauty. 

That's it for now! Love Always and keep reading.

NEW YORK FASHION WEEK! Loving it even though I am stuck in Iceland! This fox printed dress is one of my favorite things right now. I love it, it's so original. No leopard print here. 

Love Always

Hope you are enjoying fashion week as much as I am! Alot of sites have live views from the shows and it is truly amazing to watch. One is Style Scrapbook.

The weather out is AWFUL. I just got my hair cut so I couldn't be happier. Oh yes I could if one of these insane photos was taken from my house. Especially the first one.

Haven't blogged in a loooong time. I'm cutting my hair short tomorrow and I can't wait! Enjoy these photos while I keep being laaaazy!
