Kiwi - healed.

It's actually rather difficult to take a photo of your own arm. Anyhow, here it is, my kiwi tattoo. =) What d'you think?





With all my fruity love,

Roadtrip

We are going on a roadtrip today to the swedish west coast. The camera is charged and packed.

Here's a crappy photo of my kiwitattoo. I'll show you a better one when I've charged my camera batteries.

Now I need to get up and go to work. Peace out!

Ps. I love my tattoo! :) ds.

The weekend

First pic, my arm as it looked on friday morning. Second picture my arm with the stencil. I'll take a picture on the finished tattoo once it's healed.

I didn't take any pictures at the Pink concert, it was too crowded and I'm too short to take good pictures in a crowd...

However here's a pic from a church we visited yesterday, vasakyrkan ( Vasa church). Really touristy bit very nice :)

Today is the big day!

Hi!

Woke up early today. 5:30 am actually. Couldn't go back to sleep. I am so extremely nervous 'cus today at 10 am I have an appointment to do my very first tattoo.

I woke up because I had a dream about tattoos. I dreamed that I was a few minutes late for my appointment, and as a punishment they tattooed my whole arm! Is that a weird dream or what!

I wasn't nervous 'til I spoke to my mum yesterday. This is how that conversation went (btw she is con-tattoos. Very much so!)

I: Mum, just so you know, I'm getting my first tattoo tomorrow.
M: Seriously?! Where??
I: On my arm, just below my elbow.
M: It seriously hurts there, you know that?
I: What do you know about that? You don't know that, you don't have tattoos.
M: Well, your aunt has one there, remember? She told me it hurts like S**IT there.
I: Thanks mum, I feel so much better now. Couldn't you just be glad I warned you?
M It's your dad you need to warn.
I: I know. I don't have the guts to do that.
M: Mhm. There you go.

Very soothing conversation. thank you mum for being so supportive. Hahaha.

Well, I'm going to Gothenburg this weekend, so you won't see the tat 'til sunday/monday. If I don't do a crappy Iphone update. Well the Update itself won't be more crappy than the normal post, however the photo will be crappy. Hopefully it'll be because of the camera on my iphone and not because of the quality of the tattoo.

Cross your fingers for me now, okay?

The Royal Wedding.

Today the Swedish crownprincess Victoria marries her Daniel. This is an historical event, in Swedish history a female head of state is very rare in itself and the fact that she now gets to marry a man of the people, a commoner if you may, is unheard of. Actually the last one to do so is also the oldest living Bernadotte and he actually lost his prince title when he married. Well, to be honest, in my heart I do like the Swedish royalties, they're fascinating and Victoria seems to be a genuinely honest and lovely person. However, if I disregard my fascination of the royalties, I am pro-republic. On the other hand, I do follow the wedding on tv today, I don't want to miss out on all the beautiful ladies with their stunning dresses and all the handsome gentlemen. Most stunning of them all, as should be, is Victoria. Just look at this picture from last night. Just look at that dress! Oh, I would give a lot to have that dress!


Royal wedding greetings,
Linn

Pinups and pirates.

I just love pinups and pirates. I would love to morph them into one picture and have it tattooed.

New family member

This is our new family memeber, his/her name is currently The Snake... These photos are taken just after he was fed with a big rat. Not a live one though, they're sold frozen. Snakes are really cool and weird animals.

Amazing!

I'm actually at the exhibition in this very second. Anna Ilebys drawings are amazing! I don't know how to describe them in any other way. Anna is sitting across the room from me, but I'm too much of a chicken to go up to her and say hello. I wish I would dare though, she seems so nice!

Later,
Linn

Long time, no see

Hi folks! It's been a while, haven't it? Well, I'm busy in school and with life in general so I decided I needed to make some priorities. However, today I took the day off. My first day off in about two weeks.

Actually I'm doing something fun today, I'm going on an art exhibition by the famous bloger Anna Ileby who rund the blog Anna Ritar. (I don't know how to link to her blog when I'm bloging from my phone...) however I didn't check what time it opens before I left. I was an hour early so I'm just waiting outside in my car. They must think I'm a weird /crazy person.

I'm also doing this on my own. My best friend already had plans, Mr E is working and everybody else I asked also had plans. It's actually a bit scary. I'm not good at doing stuff like this on my own... Well wish me luck!

Love,
Linn

Yesterdays makeup and do.

Yesterdays makeup consisted of my everyday makup this spring. A really nice foundation, some pink blush, and my new favourite eye shadows/glimmers. The shadows are two shades of champagne, one bright and one that is more beige. I'll tell you all about them some other time (No, they're not ID!!)

When I woke up yestersday I felt like braiding my hair. (the day before yesterday I saw some really inspirational pictures...) so thats what I did. It looks nice but is rather simple to do. You just do to two dutch braids from your fringe to your neck, when you reach the neck you just braid the rest of the hair like an ordinary braid. Take the ends (in other words, the "ordinary" braid, after the dutch braid) and pin it along sinde the oposite dutch braid. Piece of cake.






Allt he braided love in the world,
Linn

Let's welcome spring!

And in the spirit of this blog (or at least it's name) I did it with some makeup.



With lots of spring-y love,
Linn

Glad påsk!

This is a photo I took a few years back. This is my way of saying Happy Easter! (for those of you who's not fluent in Swedish, Glad Påsk means Happy Easter.) This is also my entry for a competition here, Caroline Dahléns blog with sponsoring from tvspelsweb.se .



So, wish me luck and have a lovely easter folks!

Love,
Linn

Shoe shoping!

I just ordered these lovelies from Nelly. I'm a shoe-oholic, I know! These will be perfect this spring with a cool tee and a pair of skinny pants! Oh, I shamelessly borrowed the picture from the blog My Shoebox.
If you sometimes feel my style is somewhat eclectic, you're right. I just can't seem to settle for one style, I like having the option of many styles so that I can go for the style I feel like every day. Today it might be a 50's style with an hourglass shaped dress, tomorrow it might be more modern, like in the case of these shoes. I sometimes admire all the blogers out there who seem to have found one style and then rocks it to perfection, well I just have to realise I'm not one of them.

So, leaving my little style-explanation behind, let's just hope Nelly is a quick shipper!

Now I'm going to make myself a cup of tea that will be enjoyed on my balcony, in the sun!

Love,
Linn
