this is what is left

dress

Made myself another new dress last night as i figured i didnt pack any dresses i wanted to wear for christmas day. Had this fabric laying around that ive wanted to make a dress from for ages, and after wanting to buy this Carven dress for ages; there was only one thing to do. I love having my sewing-machine here. Might have to get one in London as well..
Merry Christmas everyone!

The Milky Way

Finally, another holiday up north in my beautiful island. This time for three weeks.. Three weeks in complete darkness. Had to do a 30sec exposure to get any light at all in this picture, as I couldnt even see what I was framing.
Here's the stars and the everlasting Norwegian sea outside my window. Love from Norway

finding home

andøya

Appreciate having this wonderful island to come back to when i miss my parents food and my cats cuddles. Falling asleep to the sound of ocean, waking up in the mornings and not knowing whether its your eyes that are still covered in sleep or if its the windows covered in sea-salt. Not being able to leave the house as the resistance of the wind is keeping the doors shut. Staying up after the street-lights are shut and all I can see is the stars and northern lights. This is what I will do for 3 full weeks during christmas/new years.

Christmas soon. And im going home for 3 weeks!
I have decided to not push myself towards the fashion industry, I will just continue doing my thing and I am sure if its meant to be I will get work anyways. I just really wanna do what I love doing. Got an exciting project going on that I will tell you about in a bit. Life is the best thing that happened to me.
