Nina's Blog - Thursday 2nd November 2023

In the Jordbærpikene café, again. No waffles this time so I'm having a baked cheesecake.


The reason for being out is to buy some token birthday presents for my sons. I forgot one, and I'll be out of the country for another so I've decided to combine them into one un-birthday on Sunday.

Got some presents and cards, next stop is the Vinmonopol to get a few bottles of booze.

The forecast was for snow today but it hasn't materialised. I decided to wear a fake fur partly because of the forecast.

It's very warm and cosy but I'm beginning to think that it would suit someone taller

@ninalanyon I don't know about the fur but I like the red gloves in the whole monochrome. There's red behind you at the window frames too..I like the picture overall.
And I'm now dreaming of a cheesecake too

@being Thank you! I wish I could take credit for the composition. But it was just a happy accident, it was the first place I found where I could prop up my mobile to take a video!

@being There's red in my jumper too. I'm quite fond of red.

@ninalanyon nice! I like it like this, popping up in details. I think you should print the first picture, it makes a nice winter card postal
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@being Now I'm intrigued. Card postal is un-English so I wonder if you would prefer to write carte postale? Or, to put it another way: is French your mother tongue?

@being. The penalty for complimenting me is more pictures :-)

A closer look at the jumper

@ninalanyon no it's Greek but I guess we've imported it!
Does that neck belong to the jumper or is it an extra thing?
And a hot air balloon necklace? Ohhhhh......I love this ❤️

@ninalanyon you look good to me darling 💋
samanthaX · 41-45, T
@ninalanyon french is not my mother tongue honey.

@being The neck is part of the jumper. It's just right for this weather. I rarely wear the hot air balloon necklace, it just doesn't seem to go with most things.
being · 36-40, F
@ninalanyon I think in this case the necklace matches quite well, maybe with something whitish too? Then it'd give french vibes:)
being · 36-40, F
@ninalanyon I think you're inspired by french something something
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@being I haven't got many white items. Perhaps I should take a look today and see what i can find for tomorrow's outing. Should be able to find a white jumper at least. And I have a long Icelandic wool skirt somewhere.

Not sure what I'm inspired by but I don't think it's French, not consciously at least.

My intent is to be more colourful or at least more interestingly dressed than average. One inspiration is the late great Vivienne Westwood and her dictum "When in doubt, dress up!".

@ninalanyon thanks, I need that too
