I have really missed Beyond Retro the last year in Philly, I remember it as my favorite vintage store when living in Stockholm. So last week I dropped by to do some shopping. The entrance gives you a taste of what to expect! 90210-inspired denim shirts! Fabulous tulle skirts. I wish I had one in [...]

I had totally forgot to post these outfit shots that we took on Sunday in Phila. Nothing special, just wore these Kookai pants that I got on sale in Paris, for the first time. They are gonna be perfect for the fall. They go with everything and are so comfy. They have some nice gold [...]

Hey, I’m back in Philly after 2 great days in New York. We always come to Chelsea Market in Meatpacking District for some great quick sushi, so also this time, this is right after that. Then I went to get my hair done at Bumble & Bumble… will show you tomorrow how it turned out. [...]

Today is my baby’s Birthday but we started celebrating already yesterday evening. I decided the evening would have a 1950′s theme and made some secret plans. We jumped into some fancy outfits and went to this place. It was like walking into a restaurant in Manhattan in the end of the 50′s – dark woods [...]

No it’s not a souvenir from our last vacation in Los Cabos – this navy blue mexican dress with white embroideries is a vintage find from Beacon’s Closet. When I bought it last summer it was a maxi dress. It looked too much like a nightie so I re-made it into a shorter version. This [...]

In the Tuesday sunset on our balcony I snapped these shots of my new vintage, knitted top that I got at Beacon’t Closet this Monday. It is a warm yellow color, on the borderline between yellow and orange. I might be too shapeless to suit me but I don’t care, I like the casual look. [...]

This is one of the things that I got on Monday in Williamsburg. A red, vintage dress in 100% silk, think I payed around $15 for it. It doesn’t look that much at first but the quality of it is just great, and my idea is to change the buttons, maybe into wooden ones. Then I’m [...]

I was flipping throught the latest issue of Nylon the other day and saw this cute gypsy-inspired look (below). I decided to do my own version of the look and at the same time show you a few of my latest vintage finds. Nylon is great inspiration! The belt is vintage and is one of [...]

Today I took the subway to Williamsburg and went straight to one of my absolute favorite vintage stores on earth: Beacon’s Closet. I then spent a few hours in there finding so many great items that I just couldn’t get everything! I did make some great finds and I’m excited to share it here on [...]

Yesterday me and my love went for a small excursion to the countryside. There’s this place called Terrain at Styer’s, that’s just so amazing, we love coming here. It’s kind of a combination between a gardening center, shop, restaurant, outdoors café and sometimes they have band playing folk pop in the sunshine. Quite amazing place, [...]
