Raise a glass!


This is my last post of the year! Crazy how time flies... This afternoon we will be taking Sean to the massive German fun fair in Hyde Park called Winter Wonderland, where Bear will take him on all the rides whilst Mummy looks on and sips on some warm gluhwein and nibbles on authentic bratwursts! :-)
Later on we are going to my very good friend Vivien's for a dinner party, where we will be ready to greet 2011 in full force:-)

HAPPY NEW YEAR's EVE TO ALL OF YOU!

Hope 2011 will be full of happiness, good health, success, and everything you deserve and desire.
Much love,
Catharina

Today I'll be wearing a high neck black blouse with long sheer balloon sleeves and wide cuffs

Black and gold teardrop shaped drooping earrings
The blouse has got an open back detail which is barely visible when I let my hair down

Footwear for the evening are a pair of black, shiny, pointed leather boots with tassels on the back of each boot

The Big Pony



Today I went to the Ralph Lauren store in Bond Street to exchange the black Big Pony polo with the sparkly beaded big pony sign on the chest, that I got for x-mas. A tip for those buying this particular slim fit polo, buy one size up from the one you would normally get.

Gothic = Gorgeous


I can't wait to decorate my neck with my new very Gothic style-silk chiffon (Alexander McQueen) square scarf with different sized skulls throughout. I am really pleased with the fact that it's grey and not the usual black with the white skulls. Well done Bear! :-)

Our Christmas Holiday weekend

My baby boy's favourite mode of transport LOL
Dad - in front of Christian IV Hotel (the Danish king who gave his name to our town)
It gets really dark early here in Scandinavia during Winter
Uncle Erik showing Seanie something interesting on the laptop - on Grandma's bed
All gathered round at Mum's on Boxing Day
My baby brother
Seanie is becoming a little IT expert - here using Dad's Mac
Henrik looking pleased with himself
Weeeeeeehee!! Faster Daddy, faster !!!
Time to take the sledge home now after sessions up on the local hill
Uncle Erik is helping Sean with his new Christmas numbers puzzle
Chillaxin' on Xmas Eve
Henrik was dressed in his red Chinos, and together with the hat, he was the perfect Santa's helper - handing out the pressies

Sean got a new DVD - his absoloute favourite; Toy Story 3 (in Swedish!)
Grandfather and grandson share in the Christmas joy
We all inspect our fab new gifts
Mum checks out my new Reebok Easy Tone trainers - designed to tone my butt - lol!
With all my family at Christmas - pure bliss
Sean had as much fun with Dad's coasters as some of his new toys!

snow sledge







The day before x-mas & Daddy's arrival :-)

Tomorrow is the big day, hurray!
(for those of you who don't know, Christmas is celebrated on the 24th in Sweden).
Now we are just praying to the weather gods that this snowstorm that is pushing in through the South of Sweden will go away as it is causing transport trouble and I need my man here tomorrow, in fact; I HAVE TO have him here. End of!

Alterations


This morning I am puttin elastic hems on Sean's Ralph Lauren trousers that is a gift from my Mum's friend Jessica.
It's a great solution if you have trousers that are either too long or too wide, and all you need is an elastic band for each leg and a very large safety pin.

2010 in review

Festive family fun

Waiting for a taxi to go to my Dad's place

Wrapping up warm is essential when the temperatures have dropped to minus 20!

With Christmas carols playing we decorated the xmas tree

Sean stayed up way beyond his usual bed time at 7.30pm as he was so excited with so many people around him giving him attention

Erik was very lucky that his flight left on time from London yesterday, and that the only delays he experienced were 90 mins on the train from the airport to our home town


In festive spirits, here indulging in coffee and cognac


Champagne truffles and a special edition of Hennessy cognac - goodies from Eriks boyfriend, that he brought for us

L is for Louis Vuitton + London :-)

There is just something about this pic...


Lusting for the beautiful black bag with the iconic monogram pattern embossed on calf leatherand, and then the shawl in this particular colour. Simply divine!






Anticipation

Today we are waiting in anticipation, to see if my brother Erik, who is due to fly from London to Copenhagen this morning, will despite the severe weather that's causing chaos over Europe, will arrive here at some point today
