For der Svenskar






Its been such a long time! But I'm back, and I'm inspired. Perhaps its the change of weather here in San Diego. Its been chilly, and rainy, and perfectly Autumnal. With the onset of blustery days, and nippy nights, comes my craving for all things comforting; Hot chocolate, fuzzy blankets, and cozy sweaters. Every year, about this time, myself and Lily, begin the search for the perfect cardigans, chunky knits, and sweat sweaters. This year I find myself drawn to all things Scandinavian. Normally I'm not keen on prints, but Norwegian sweaters give me a casual geometric print and classic look. They just beg to be worn while shopping along a wharf for a new pair of clogs, some rye bread, and Eukland linen. If all you enjoy about Svenskar culture is mass produced, build-it-yourself furniture, meatballs, and the um blot, then I suggest you buff up on the Baltic Sea and all its people has to offer.
