It probably does not come as a surprise to most of you that have been following my blog that I live in the countryside. Waaay out in the countryside! I live in a village though so I am surrounded by lovely neighbours!
I looove the British editions of Country Living and Country Homes and Interiors. If you cannot get your hands on these you can get inspired here.
I do not call myself a gardener. But I have a garden and for the years we have been living in this house I have been trying to figure out how to take care of it. I love working in my garden and I am in love with peonies. I have a few, but plans are to get some more. My love for peonies go way back to my childhood. My maternal grandmother had lots in her garden and I was always enchanted by them.
This is the bouquet I carried for my wedding. More pictures from my wedding in the post Dream Wedding.
My sense of style has also been influenced by this love of British farmhouse/country/manor. I am crazy about hats and well all types of fashion you wear on your head. Caps, berets, fascinators, headbands, veils. You name it!
Here's what I wore today. It is a sunny but windy spring day.
Cap was a gift from my sister-in-law, Cardigan H&M, Tank Gina Tricot(another gift from my lovely mom!), old cut-off Levi's, tights Åhléns, flats H&M Kids
My kids were also donning some seriously cute headwear today!
This cap is from H&M.
I wish this came in my size!!!! Old Navy

This is Martha Stewart's peony garden. It is my dream. Of course I don't have the space for it. But dreams don't need space.

nice pictures, and your wedding bouquet was gorgeous! I love this colors together!!! it would off look great as a dress!
ReplyDeletethose are some really wonderful photos! very colorful and inspirational!
ReplyDeleteOh gosh I have such a soft spot for peonies too! My mom just bought me four stems of this Sorbet-type of peony, have you heard of it? She loved them so much she went and bought her own and planted it in the backyard. I cannot wait for them to grow!! So gorgeous. And your wedding bouquet is to die for : ) Very dreamy. I love Martha’s garden too. Imagine having that? Sigh! Have a great day! XO
ReplyDeleteGreat blog! Glad I found you ... and I just wanted to say that your "about me" is what has me hooked :)

Awh, you and your son are wearing almost identical, if not identical, hats! <3 Gotta love houndstooth.
ReplyDeleteAs for politics, that's a big no-no. I feel like I say too much things, sometimes mean and rude, by accident, for me to do that. I'm young and I've got lots to learn. Plus I like the truth.
Her couch is not okay. There's petrified insects underneath the couch hood. I hope you get two good couches to replace the bad ones! And yes for vintage gifts!
the flowers are so great!!
ReplyDeletelove your top too :)
