My new adress and some rambling

My new blog: http://okashiicrafts.wordpress.com/

I can't stop my self from blogging anymore ~_^

My new blog is still under construction and I'm going to take my time working on the design. I really hope you'll keep following me, cause I love reading your blogs!

I'm also planing on buying a new computer (I'm currently borrowing my boy-friends) and I really miss Photoshop and working with photography. When I get my new computer I'll just have more time online and I'm looking forward to it so much!

Stay in touch! ♥ / Amanda

Sorry.

Sorry for just disappearing. This summer I took a break from using the internet so much (other than checking my mail ofc). I am back but I'm moving this blog to wordpress, smashing it together with my Swedish crafts blog (it's still going to be in English). I'm also moving it all, when the design is finished, to my own domain, if possible. So I'm currently learning CSS and working on the whole project. Promise to post a link as soon as I feel the page is some what presentable!

I gone a little shopping-crazy lately so I need to just STOP for a while but I realized that I could probably make one of these collar-ribbons om my own with the things I really have at home. 

 I think this is very cute but I would not be brave enough (or comfortable) to wear it except maybe on the beach over a bikini.

Crimson has the best timeing ever!

Crimson is the place I mail my analogue films to, to get developed, and I've been waiting to get five rolls back. I got them to day - on my birthday ^__^

Here's one of Moriko:

Yeay!

I'm free for summer!!

Yeaaay! And of course I have tons to blog about but we have a guest staying over for the week end so I have to clean and prepare! I'll probably make another post this evening.

I got the question if I have ever tried matcha-ice cream in a comment and my answer is no, I haven't but I have wanted to for a long time so thanks for the easy tip (to sprinkle it over vanilla ice cream). I've also always wanted to try kitkat with matcha flavour. Oh there are so many things with matcha flavour in Japan I want to try!

I use matcha for other things though, like last year when I baked matcha-scones (just add some matcha to the dough) and in my yogurt with musli, I have even used it in smoothies! So if you love matcha - just try it!! There's tons of free recipes online!

This is the one I use:

I buy it when I visit my parents in Stockholm.

My matcha-scones ♥

I definitely have to bake some matcha-cookies soon!

3 days left of classes

So I'm super busy! Will return comments a.s.a.p! You make me so happy ^____^

I'm currently working on my 6 page essay and eating pocky. 

Pocky also makes me happy, eventhoght I like ToppTopp more. Another great thing is that I found a new sushi-place today - finally!

Ditsy Floral 4 Shot Camera

This saturday...

This Saturday me, my BF and our puppy Moriko went to her breeder in a town one hour away. It was a sibling-play-date! For the first time since we got her (December first) we got to see her siblings again. Moriko was in heat so it was a bit stressful for her brother >_<. But it was so great to see them again and to let them meet. Her brother is so cute and her sister was so tiny and fluffy!

Her sister has done great at the latest dog shows! I haven't participated at any with Moriko yet and I don't know if I'm going to so it was nice to hear that the breeders other dogs (including Morikos parents) are doing well.

It was a beautiful day, and very hot! I really need to get some sunblock!

 

Morikos sister Fenix (I'm not sure how they spell it) and her mother Chibi.

Moriko (who got to borrow some panties so no accidents would happen), her "aunt" Peanut and Chibi.

Her beautiful brother Ludde.

 

My princess, Moriko.

 

Pretty Fenix.

Here comes the sun

It's fantastic weather in Sweden to day. So I started the day with this song:



Had a great day, gonna write about it later. Now me and my BF are gonna eat sushi, drink some elderflower juice and watch Buffy ♥

MORE SHOES ♥_♥

Boy am I paying today for going to the university yesterday ;_; The day before yesterday I felt how I was getting better but today I'm actually worse! I can barely speak! Buuhuu. And my BF sick now to. I'm so annoyed that when I just started blogging here again all I can write about is my nagging about being sick. I'm sorry about that! I promise to be more creative when I feel better and I'm trying to do my best to get rid of my stupid cold.

I have no energy at all and since I couldn't go out and buy shoes I've been browsing some online. So here comes A LOT of pictures of shoes with a huge range in style (all the pictures are from brandos.se):

I have always liked Fly London's special style, some more than others of course. One thing I like about their designs is that all their heels looks easy to walk in.

These I might get. I like how they both make a statement but are simple at the same time - see what I mean?

 I really like this kind of heel and I think it's rare to find a good looking shoe with that kind of heel. I like this shoe though.

Every time I've seen shoes from Irregular Choice I've always thought that they seem over the top with to many colorful details until to day when I took my time to really look at them. I don't think I would be able to wear most of them every day but I would still like a pair. (A bit too expensive though). I like when you wear something a little more crazy to a simple or classic outfit.

 

Just look at that heel! Wow!

 

 

Say what you want about Jessica Simpson but I happen to love some of her shoe-designs. Here are some examples:

I'm not sure I would be able to walk in these, ha ha, but I love the design. And I just love the shape of the heel on the shoe below.

 

I really wanted these last winter. I still like them but not as much. It was so slippery this winter and it would have been impossible to keep balance in these.

So, so tired

I'm exhausted! I want to go get my package from H&M that arrived and buy some Ben & Jerry ice cream but I'm to tired.

I'm feeling better than yesterday but not completely there yet. Had to go to the university anyway and work on that 20 pages essay I'm writing with a friend. It's due tomorrow so it was necessary to go in even though I'm not completely rid of my cold yet. But it was also nice to get out of the apartment and we finished the essay! Now we only have to double check all the footnotes before we hand it in.
When I got home I cooked dinner and after that I've been so, so tired!

I'm gonna let my self be lazy and rest to night. Tomorrow I'm looking forward to reading your comments and blogs (and answer). If I'm up for it I might go in to town and look for those chunky heels I posted before (the more I look at the pictures the more I want them)! In the evening I'm taking this dog-training course with my chihuahua Moriko and it's the last lesson tomorrow.

I'm actually feeling worse today so I guess I have to take back that it's kind of nice being at home. My BF has been cleaning the apartment today and I feel bad for just lying in bed. It's so annoying when there's so much you want to do but you don't have the energy. But I know I'll get better soon and now it's not long until my classes are over and I'll have much more time to spend as I wish. I want to re-organise my closet and all our book-shelf...I have a long list of things I wanna do ;)

I've been looking for some new shoes to wear with maxi-dresses and long skirts. I want something like this:

I like chunky wood heels. I also found a very cute necklace. I'll probably won't buy it but I really like it!

I fear I'll have to stay at home for at least a couple of days with my sore throat but at least I can get some studying done anyway. My art history class is currently reading On Photography by Susan Sontag and I find it really interesting and also useful for my essay. I have to work on my 20 pages essay I'm writing with a friend and a 6 paper essay about a quote by Kandinsky "Every work of art is the child of its time" and the seminar about the book On Photography.

I rather be out and about but it's not totally bad being at home drinking tea, reading, writing and cuddling with my chihuahua.

Skirts skirts skirts

All from ASOS

I usually never go for clothing with sequins on them but I've been liking it more and more lately and i I actually like this skirt and would buy it if it wasn't so expensive.

I've also been more drawn to some shades of pink.

I like this style, but I'm not sure I could pull it off.

The first one is too expensive and the other two are out of stock in my size (I'm very petite). But here's a skirt I might actually add to my latest order:

I'm not sure about which colour to choose. I guess the black one is the safest one.
