Today Is An Anais Nin Day

"I disregard the proportions, the measures, the tempo of the ordinary world. I refuse to live in the ordinary world as ordinary women. To enter ordinary relationships. I want ecstasy. I am a neurotic — in the sense that I live in my world. I will not adjust myself to the world. I am adjusted to myself."
 - Anaïs Nin

Today's Outfit:

H&M dress
my aunts pearl earrings
Prada belt
Office patent leather ballerinas

Now time for editing some photos!

Happy Wednesday To You All

"I Disregard the Proportions, the Measures, the Tempo of the Ordinary World...!"


"I disregard the proportions, the measures, the tempo of the ordinary world. I refuse to live in the ordinary world as ordinary women. To enter ordinary relationships. I want ecstasy. I am a neurotic — in the sense that I live in my world. I will not adjust myself to the world. I am adjusted to myself. - Anaïs Nin"

AMEN

a couple of things out of the blue;):
My female role models whom happen to be my mom,aunt and grandma tried to stop me out of love to move anywhere else than close to home/ near them...but what happened was this: their love gave me strength to think I could conquer the world:))) I think they regret this now hahah. or not. 

you might wonder about the various personas:) well my mom started that one. when I was a tiny little girl my mom always gave me stories about these other girls that had taken over my persona...and of course it won me over and I was in her hands haha.It made me angry but at the same time I was laughing so hard at all its silliness:)))

An Anais Nin Outfit:

Anna Sui flowery dress
grandmas heart
vintage bangles & barrette
Beyond Retro cardie
Burberry flats


"Are you in earnest? Seize this very minute:
What you can do, or dream you can, begin it;  
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. 
Only engage and then the mind grows heated;  
Begin and then the work will be completed." 
–Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
I am sending Love to My Dearest Jaime:)) I am so happy to have you as my friend. Thank you for Saturday.

a monday morning note;0) and this is the type of blog post I will create after 3 large glasses of white wine:))) and yes I have edited down the text haha. But mainly the post is the same, I want to keep it authentic no matter what state I am in.., only shorter and hopefully with correct spelling.

A Thursday & Some Inspirations



"For what it’s worth: it’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you find you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start over again."- F. Scott Fitzgerald
 Stay Original.
I met my friend Nils yesterday, we had a picnic in Green Park:) I have not been on a picnic since I saw him last and that was a year ago!!! Forgot to take pictures. Before & after I met him I felt like I was all over central London:)) I had to get more film for my art project & mustard from the Swedish Church that happened to be closed:( But we do have a Swedish shop called Totally Swedish so I was saved haha.
When back home in Dulwich I sat down at the East Dulwich Tavern and went through Tumblr a tiny bit. I found these inspiration images:))) They are all taken from Coquette Journal.
Images: 1 clockwise from top left: flowers at Liberty. A lovely pub on Great Marlborough Street. Inside Fortnum & Mason. Outside Liberty beauty. 2 Inspirations from Coquette Journal.
 I am off to Richmond to hopefully see some deers:)))
Happy Friday!!!

A Common Monday in East Dulwich (First Aid Kit, Valentino, Wolfs, Burberry, Crash...a Jessie and Such Things)

While wearing a film costume dress from Independent Kostym (in heavy rain together with the Hunters) and meeting someone special today I had the most time for millions of inspirations...going  through so many tears that I have saved for my Coquette Journal.

My story is now out in Crash issue 61 featuring Jessie Dunne ; here are some iPhone photos from that day:) Clockwise from top left: How Jessie looked like when arriving:). Wearing Valentino while one of the billions of cats decided to visit. Burberry cuteness. Erdem beauty with a Swarovski necklace.

Tooooo.......FELL MADLY IN LOVE WITH FIRST AID KIT AND THEIR WOLF. I have listened and seen this video for ca 10 times in a row at this point. I am truly madly. Enjoy.
