Look what I found yesterday! Even though I had a very unselfish agenda to spend the day shopping for my daughter I couldn’t resist this golden palm tree standing there looking handsome in the window. I surprised myself, because I usually never buy anything new for my home since I prefer oldies and flea market finds the most.

When it comes to candle holders I have a few old ones but to be honest I find them a little bit unsafe. They aren’t that stabile and with children around I need them to be trustworthy. This candle will be lit every night when I read bed time stories for my kids, hoping it can bring us some light and warmth also in our minds if/when the days feel long, dark and cold.

As for someone who loves to enjoy life everyday in one way or another I can’t say that I hate receiving gifts to the door every now and then. Especially ruffled dresses in the most beautiful shade of blue. This dress is like a dream and I don’t even mind that it’s not even close to my size. I just had to make it work last week when the temperatures were still a little bit higher.

Today is the first morning when I dressed my kids in a beanie and gloves. The leaves are swinging back and forth desperately holding on to the branches and the air is getting chilly. It’s time to pack away all of my sundresses, bikinis (thank God) and sandals to save my toes from frostbite. Instead, I’m going to binge in lederhosen, cashmere and my dearest Busnel cardigans. Inviting the cold by picking up some fluffy knits for an exciting photo session coming up next week. Stay tuned!
