WTW: Stockholm

I learned my first Swedish word: REA!! Yes, I know- I am working at Appelfabriken-the quaint country café and garden in Stockholm's inner archipelego. Day to day tasks usually include weeding the garden, mowing lawn, trimming hedges, watering the greenhouse down and a whole mess of other odd jobs involving rakes, hoses, shears and keeping my nails short.

But post-midsummer here, everything in Stockholm goes on REA... SALE!! I had to check out my fav Swedish brands and hot damn I lucked out! What to wear Stockholm isn't directed at one specific restaurant (though I'll be checking out Lisa Pa Torget asap- I hear it's great), but really just an assembly of my purchases. Come on! I'm living in the boonies (the gorgeous, forest and water engulfed, heavenly boonies but still) so I gotta bust out sometime!

So here's my what to wear - a totally Swedish round up: starting from the top we have a Cheap Monday top with cool layering in the back and single pocket in front. Jeans are Acne brand on REA for a little less than $100! Shoes are a Weekday find- the design collective responsible for Cheap Monday. And last but not least is crowning jewel- the Whyred travel bag in all it's pixely glory. Yum!

Now all I need is Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair and I'll be invincible. Reason for another day off!

Ps- I realize photos are eyesore-poor quality but i'm blogging à la iPhone so that's what I gots :-)
