Headlights - Ellen Sundberg




I SÃķndags gick jag till en konsert pÃĨ Mosebacketerrassen. I sin flyer skriver Rootsy Live att de tillsammans med sina samarbetspartner ÃĪr omÃĨttligt stolta att presentera den fÃķrsta ÃĨrgÃĨngen av festivalen "Rolling Rootsy Revue" RRR 2014. Festivalen ÃĪr fÃķr de som gillar alternativ folkmusik. Det finns sÃĨ mÃĨnga bra artister. Ellen Sundberg ÃĪr en av dem.

Ellens debutskiva "Black Raven" slÃĪpptes i augusti 2013. "Black Raven" var en av de nominerade pÃĨ Manifestgalan. Singeln "Headlights" slÃĪpptes 6:e juni 2014. Hon sjunger sÃĨ vackert. NÃĪr jag lyssnade fÃķrsta gÃĨngen pÃĨ festivalen, ÃĪlskade jag den lÃĨten direkt. Hon ÃĪr en av min favoriter bland svenska singer-songwriters och hon fÃĨr mig att gilla country music ÃĪnnu mer.  Jag hoppas den yngre generationen som jag lyssnar pÃĨ country mer och mer. Vad tycker ni? Jag hoppas alla gillar den lÃĨten.








Last sunday I went to a concert. It was the first Swedish Americana Festival presented by Rootsy Live. The festival are definitely for alternative country music's lover. There were so many great artists. Ellen Sundberg was one of them and she has an amazing voice. 

Her debut album  "Black Raven" was released in August 2013. Black Raven (Rootsy) was nominated at the Manifestgalan in the category singer-songwriter. The single "Headlights" was released on 6th of June 2014. I kind of love this song. When I heard the song for the first time, it really caught my ear. She is definitely one of my favorite Swedish singer-songwriters and she does make me like country music even more. I wish there are many people in the young generation that listen to this kind of music. What do you think? I hope you like this song.

3D Bags - JumpFromPaper

Are you a cartoon lover? Is that thing real? Would you like to own one of them.

The colorful and quirky bags were created by young designer-duo Rika Lin and Chay Su from Taipei in 2010.  They are now running over 25 countries round the world including Thailand.  The bags are so popular in Thailand right now. The philosophy of designer is "Why take everything so serious?"

Image - www.jumpfrompaper.com
I could see JumpFromPaper trend grows extremely fast especially in Asia. How about in Sweden??? I could imagine some of those hipsters in SÃķdermalm having them on. 

I looked at many reviews on youtube. Most common comment is that The bag itself is really unique and cool but it is very difficult to put many thing inside the bag. Some of the models can even barely fit iPad in. It seems like it is not so functional.

Anyway I would buy the bag for the design. Unfortunately there is no store in Sweden. Thinking of ordering online the bag tonight from their website. They are shipping worldwide now. I will definite let you know once I get the actual bag :).

Store Locations: Belgium, Spain, France, United Kingdom, Hong  Kong, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Luxembourg, Thailand , Taiwan and United States.

Bag Types: Backpack, Cross Body Bag, Handbag, Laptop and iPad, Purse, Shoulder Bag

Price Range: €50 up till €150 

If you love their design ,visit their website and start shopping  one or more :) .

35 Years Later 
Vintage Oversized Tartan





My mum was touring around Benelux during 1979 ,and I was not even born yet. I looked through her photos. I found several photos when she had a red tartan with a girl chinos.Totally love the blazer!!! My mum bought the fabric a couple years earlier in Switzerland ,and tailored the blazer at one of my mum's favourite tailor in my hometown. I do not recall the fabric name though.

I got the jacket from her while I was in Thailand this April. The jacket is still in a super good condition after 35 years. Now I am definitely adding this to one of my favorite oversized blazer.

Thank mummy for keeping it so well for me. Love you so muchhhhh!!!!

Burger at Pitcher, Stockholm Sweden


Burger at Pitcher's

 Dubbel Cheese Burger (Onion, Dijon Mayonnaise, Dubble Cheese, Coleslaw) - 165 KR.




Went for an early dinner after work today. My first time at Pitcher's. We were looking for the table outside but all the seat were occupied. Sitting inside was not so bad.  The place's quite big, cozy and spacious.There are so many burger places in SÃķdermalm. Pitcher's definitely one of them.The burger 's not bad at all plus a great ambient. I would say the price 's not very cheap. Let's say "Good food at acceptable price". Definitely coming back!









Less than 5 minutes walking distance from Mariatorget station to the restaurant >>

Open time: 11:00 am - 3:00 am

Basic White Tee and Jean for an easy Sunday




Woke up early on a Sunday morning. I decided to take a walk in Gamla Stan. I have been living in Stockholm for several  years and this's the first time I actually walked around alone in Gamla Stan. It was really nice, quite and calm. 







Dropped by for a fresh squeezed orange juice at Cafe "Klasskakan" and took a walk for one hour.

Can barely see people.......


MÃĨrten Trotzigs GrÃĪnd(Alley of MÃĨrten Trotzig)



My outfit for an easy Sunday "White Tee and Jean". American Apparel white top with denim from Zara. I think Denim duo perfectly with a white top. The look is so effortless and chic.

Lastly, I would like to thank you two most kindness tourist  for taking my pics.

"SlÃĨ Mig HÃĨrt I Ansiktet" by Thomas StenstrÃķm





Looking at the music video on youtube with the song title "SlÃĨ Mig HÃĨrt I Ansiktet" by Thomas StenstrÃķm. The song was released at the end of April 2014.

This is not my type of music at all however when I was listening to it, it does give me a positive energy and the lyric is not so hard for a person who speaks broken Swedish like me.

Summer is coming and I can feel it.........






Briljant! 17 grader i morse, vad fint vÃĪder idag.

Efter en god frukost i Fabrique och en promenad runt sÃķder, gick jag fÃķr att se “Fred och KÃĪrlek Paraden” >> Peace and Love Parade 2014 Stockholm


Mycket folk Ãķverallt. Det var trevligt att se Stockholmarna kÃĪnna sig sÃĨ levande igen efter vinterdvalan. MÃĪnniskor ler och bÃĪr mycket mer fÃĪrgglada klÃĪder. Jag kÃĪnner att sommaren ÃĪr nÃĪra. FÃķrhoppningsvis kommer denna sommar att bli en fantastisk sommar. Sen efter middag ÃĨkte vi till Vitabersparken. Det var en trevlig eftermiddag.




Vill bara tacka er alla (Mieaw, Sofia, Pepe, Jacob, Gwen och Calle) fÃķr att muntra upp mig pÃĨ min regniga dag idag.

Kram Annie :)




Wow!!! 17 degrees this morning, what  a nice weather...

After a nice breakfast and a walk around SÃķder , I went to see the Parade, "Peace and Love" with my friends

There were so many people everywhere. It's very nice to see Stockholm people feeling so alive again after a so called winter hibernation.  People're smiling and wearing much more colourful clothes. I can feel summer's getting close. Hopefully this summer will be an amazing one.

Later in the afternoon we went to Vitabersparken and had a picnic. It was such a nice afternoon well spent.

Just wanna thank you everyone (Mieaw, Sofia, Pepe, Jacob, Gwen and Calle) to cheer me up for my rainy day today.
