Spring, my flat and a whole lotta crap:))


With spring behind the corner (this time for real:)) I've retrieved my miniskirts and wondering what goes best with a bright pink tutu? :) leopardprint flats of course!


Remember that red/white Ikea desk? Well it was sold out in red so have the white version instead and actually really happy about it cause it brightens up the room and all.


And with all the books and all it doesn't even miss the colour much.


Decorating the flat.. stocked up on books, parfumes, films...


shoes..



Yes, I use my shoes as decorations. So what? I mean, they're so pretty and all right? So why not.. (plus no other place to put them).


I think I've successfully stuffed my flat with all my stuff and REALLY there's no more room left, hahaa. Oh! At a recent party my friend told me an interesting rule she and her boyfriend have set at their place, apparently they have these incredible dinner parties and the rule is simple, the parties end at 11pm. You wanna continue the party? Sure, but not in the flat. They take it outside, to some pubs etc. That way you don't get stuck with overnighters and the cleaning up isn't so severe. Hmmm, lookinh into this idea, sounds pretty good:))

Me & my new flat


Still in the process of decorating and moving stuff over from my parents' house. I basically have the kitchen done with (thou strangely enough forgot to take photos there, huh.) and have a perfect list of things I need to buy (a closet, a desk, ...) and am slowly working on it. I LOVE my flat, I love it dearly. But there are some down points: 1) no internet! Hell!!! That also meaans fewer blog posts:/ 2)the street I live on is scary. At night I was looking out the window at the train tracks that are one street away and there was a whole bunch of cops there with flashlights and looking for someone. Yikes! and also twich already a saw this guy that pees on our building. I find that weird. I mean, it wasn't even that late (like 8 pm), maybe some sort of ritual or smth? Creepy. Oh and the night I went out at night and was returning home it was kinda uncomfortable. Was getting a bit too much attention. But that really doesn't have anything to do with the flat.. 3) there's a drippings sound at night, but then I check all the pipes etc. and nothing. Huh.

Otherwise everything is bliss and perfection. Hope you enjoy the photos and more to come soon. Hopefully :)

Lusting after.. edice vecicky do bytecku


Jak jistě víte, chystám se brzy stěhovat. No a byteček sice má být z části zařízen (pračka, trouba, dvouvařič, postel, malý stoleček a dvě židle:) ale je pár věcí, které budu muset časem dokoupit. Jako například psací stůl. Nutnost! Byla jsem včera na "procházce" v Ikee a našla jsem tenhle, který se mi moc libí. Je krásně sytě červený a takový prostě celkově veselý a já opravdu teď potřebuji trochu radosti. Zásuvky, které jsou napravo, jsou sice k němu zvlášť ale i tak je za celkem rozumnou cenu a na rozdíl od většiny ostatních není úplně obří a mě by se tam větší asi těžko vešel..


Pak mě zaujala tato skříň, hlavně z toho důvodu, že má (viz další fotka) na dveřích přes celou plochu zrcadla. Které by nádherně zvětšily dojem pokoje a zárověň je to velice praktické, pač já zrcadla ráda:). Ale zdála se mi trochu drahá, takže se spíš pokusím najít podobnou jinde..


Ale musite však uznat, že ta zrcadla jsou užasná, že?


Ráda bych měla byteček trochu sladěný a aby se doplňky příliš navzájem nebily tak bych ráda držela, alespoň u toho, u čeho to půjde, jistý barevný tón. Z toho důvodu mě tyhle nástěnné hodiny zaujaly..


Budka na kliče. Až zas budu mít někdy zbytečných stopade tak do ní jdu:)) Že bych ji ale třeba eventuálně přelakovala na červeno? Možnosti jsou téměř neomezené. :)


Jednoduchá ale na druhou stranu ne moc zajímavá. Ale ve stejném odstínu červené..


Mnohem zajímavější ale jiná červená a taky dražší.


V čem mám absolutně jasno je, že chci mít všude krásné svíčky. Už mám docela slušnou zásobu doma ale nikdy víc neuškodí! :))


Pak také ale chci nějaké rostlinky ale byteček půůsobil tak jaakože živě.



Tak momentálně o všem jenom sním a planuji a snažím se tím zabavit. Zatím jsem koupila jen velký A4kový červený rámmeček, který také ladí do stejné barevné harmonie. A jinak se zbytkem postupem času si to nějak dořeším a doufám, že budu spokojená. Jinak vše co vidíte naahoře je Ikea a bylo to prostě, co mě včera zaujalo. Ale kdoví jak to dopadne..

Translation: Looking for things into teh new flat, went to Ikea yesterday and was taking pictures of things I might buy once I'll be able to afford anything. Thinking of a bright happy red working table, to cheer things up a bit. Also contemplating on a mirrored closet to make the room seem bigger. Then I'd like aa nice big red wall clock to go with the desk and a red lamp to keep things in key. Otherwise the flat will be all candled and be-planted.:) I want it be give off the feeling of being alive in a sense. I want my own little paradise. I want it to make me happy after so much pain..

Still on the hunt :)

I'm on the look out for perfect accessories for the flat. And there's so much to think over, I'll be waiting till I get the keys and all (should be sometime next week, yeay!) and will spend a lot of time planning in my head before anything actually happens ( I want PERFECTION). Anyways I want a lot of art surrounding me and inspiring me. As I mentioned in the last post I'll be taking the paints etc. but I allso want some prints of my sweethearts (Marilyn and Johnny). I love this poster I found and am wondering if I should order it or not. Love the color, love her and the message? Well, yes, there's that;). Anyone have any good tips?

Day time dreaming

As you may know, I'll be moving soon to my very own rented apartment (now that I'm done looking for the flat, I'm looking for a second job :D) and am super excited and anxious and la la la. In the mean time I'm making long lists of things I'll need to buy and wish lists of how to decorate my dreamy girly flat. ♥

There's so many choices and possibilities and I'm not even sure yet in what style I want to have the flat in. I just know I want it to be perfect. It's the first time I'll be living on my own and get to really actually decide everything for myself! Perfection. I've already bought something into the flat just two days ago (totally ridiculous but I bought too pairs of slippers, haha, one pair hot pink for myself and the other an intoxicating blue) and now I'm mentally selecting from all my belongings what I'll be taking with. All my clothes and shoes and handbags, jewelry, make-up of course but I mean from all the rest of my crap.

I'll definitely need to buy a closet and a desk since cannot move the ones I have (would just be too much work and my desk is in one piece so is really unmoveable and my closet is already falling apart so a new one is in order). I plan on taking these almost new totally sweet cabinets I've got and my laundry baskets, lamps etc:D. I'll be taking about a million books. I'll def. bring along my favorite paintings and photos (Don Quijote with a wind mill behind him, then one my Dad painted of Greak traffic, the simply framed photograph of 'The Cigarette Girl', my picaso photograph-framed print, though that might be a bit tricky to get off the wall, then most of the photos of my family, friends and loved ones I've got hanging all across my room..). Then all of the little tid bits that'll make my new flat feel like home:) The only down point is I cannot take Buddy with me but considering the flat will be ten minutes by tram away from my parent's house, I'll get to visit and hang out all the time so we're okay.

Now my wish list is a bit more complicated, since I don't want it to be total chaos, the flat is kinda tiny and I don't really have any money to spend. I wish I could get a rocking chair, all kinds of perfect stylish throw pillows, a huge retro clock, some sweet kitchen equipment, a good sound system (though this is pretty much utopia). While day dreaming and surfing the net I found these cute lamps and a rocking chair. How sweet right? Well stay tuned for the results (due in quite soon actually, hoping to be moving around the 25th). Wish me luck!!
