Back in Minnesota and started decorating for Christmas, as well as buying Christmas gifts. As we recently moved in we had no Christmas stuff at all, I’m excited to show Mats everything I bought when he gets back from the road trip! Been trying to buy some classic statement pieces, instead of small unnecessary things. Also been focusing on buying glass, and wood pieces for decorations, instead of plastic decoration.
In the last few years I have been trying to spend less money on stores like Zara and H&M, even tho it’s tempting sometimes with the cheap prices.
Here in Minnesota, they have a really good second-hand store named Fashion Avenue. I love buying second hand. You can find unique pieces that no one else has, and also much better prices. In a good second-hand store, everything is cleaned and organized. Buying second hand is cheaper for us, and better for the environment.
I have been looking at this sweater for quite a long time from 36o cashmere. Super soft and cozy, and good quality. Cashmere is always really expensive, but when I found it in the second-hand store. It looked almost new and on half of the price, so I coulde’t resist. I’m obsessed with skulls, even tho and love wearing it alone, or with a black, beige, or animal printed turtleneck under. Layers on layers are perfect for Scandinavian, or Minneapolis winters.
I hope you got inspired to go second-hand shopping or explore if you have any second hand close to where you live. My X-mas wish this year is actually something from a second-hand store.
Have a great weekend you all.
I’m having some girls and some of their kids over for gingerbread baking, sleepover and watching the Wild game tonight. Excited!
Best, Eline S.
