Cold and dark December


I suck at being a blogger, that is very true. Over the past few weeks I've spent more time working (on both homework and my translating job) than posting something on here. I am not sure how much time I will have over the coming weeks, but, I thought, a quick update should be possible right now.
Here in Sweden, everything is very dark, very cold and very snowy. I hate all of these things (rather: I plainly hate Winter) and therefore I am looking forward to Spring already, even though I know that it will take another while for Spring to arrive.

This picture pretty much sums up what my life looks like at the moment

Vintage-wise, not much interesting has happened either. I have a new 1950s sweater, which I don't have any good pictures of, so here's just a collection of not-so-good-and-clear pictures to show it (on the last picture I'm also wearing my beautiful Tara Starlet coat that my boyfriend gave me last Christmas):


Other than that I've also bought some books and have been walking around in the snow, in my snow-proof outfit ("snow-proof" absolutely not being a synonym for "good-looking", but when it's so cold, I rather look ridiculous than get sick!):

Let's read! I am on page 200 of Anna Karenina at the moment.
 I also have a Goodreads account, for those who are interested

So much snow already!
