(sorry for the low quality photos, i have no space anywhere meaning on my phones, slr, ipad you name it so had to use an old iphone and its low resolution...)

TIMEHOP

i have found an app i quickly have become addicted to. every morning, the first thing i do is check this place. it shows you exactly what you did 1 year ago, 2 years and so on. it links you to your drop box, facebook, instagram & such places and sources it all for you, even your blog posts:) it also gives you the temperature of the day! last year was way warmer than today:(

this wonder thing is called timehop

here's my april 3rd history:)

1 year ago:

was a gredelin gräddnos äventyrs dag:)

 of course the blossoms had arrived. this is dulwich village:)

 i wore vintage with grandma's gold heart & burberry flowery shoes

 went to temperley's press day

was invited to learn how to create beautiful bouquet's at jamie aston's flower school. it was a collaboration together with benetton i remember. my dear jenny came with me.

inspirations i devoured 

i do not know who created these beauties, do you? if so, please let me know so i can credit.

the 3rd of april, 2013

 moi in a vintage dress & blouse, prada belt & zara skirt.

the flowery moon child was created:) my first time shooting in a studio!

photography & styling by me

 some inspiration i brought to the shoot:)

 again, if you know of the creators of the above 3 images, let me know:)

afterwards i had a glass of wine and went through some old works. this shoot with natalia vodianova for the new york times style & entertainment issue was one of the first i ever assisted on. mimi lombardo was the stylist & ben watts (yes the brother of the famous naomi) the photographer. i shot a polaroid of her for the clothing credits, she was such a happiness one:) see a little post of it here.

 i created all my cherry blossom girl self-portrait one week in late march when we had such glorious sunshine weather:)

while searching through my blog for these images above, i found this quote from my diary 243 post.

"i am amazing. i feel f-ing beautiful, i'm capable, and inspiring, i am powerful. i love my life, my body, my mind, and my innocence. i love who i am, where i am, and where i am going. i am happy to be me."

we are amazing. we are f-ing beautiful. we are powerful!
