Happy May 17th to all Norwegians!



( PRIMARK FLATS AND COCKTAIL RING, MARC BY MARC JACOBS BAG, VINTAGE ACCORDION DRESS, H&M NECKLACE )

It`s the national day in Norway today, celebrating the independence from our union with Sweden. It`s a custom to dress up, and although many people wear national costumes today we don`t have a tradition for that in my family because of my English heritage so instead I chose this flowy accordion dress for the occasion. Watching all the marching bands in the parade re-ignited my lust for a marching dress jacket. It would look great paired with ditsy floral dresses this summer..


It`s a tradition to have ice cream and I`m not difficult to persuade...

Happy May 17th to all Norwegians! Hope you`ve had a lovely day so far! I`d love it if you left my a comment and told me what you`ve been up to today, even if you`re not in Norway! xx
