Stockholm with my Stockhomies

Vintage shop // Side of the Palace // Old Green Phone booth // Kanye as Christ by David LaChapelle // Snow!! // Amazing dress sculpture by Mafune Gonjo // Blurry instagram palace // More vintage basements // Inspiration // Even more snow!! // Artist in the National Museum

As some of you may know, I spent the past weekend in Stockholm, Sweden with the Visual Arts society in my university. I had an amazing time exploring this incredible city! Apart from the cold (which is very very cold) we had the greatest time! I had never been to Sweden or even Scandinavia before and I am so glad I had this opportunity. I love seeing new places, and this city was so beautiful and so different to anywhere I've been before. The architecture in the snow was just gorgeous, but inside the buildings there is even more beauty and we spent the majority of our time staying warm (and being hungover) in the many galleries and vintage shops! I'd love to go back someday, because there was no way to get everything to be seen, seen in only 4 days! :)
Have you ever been to Sweden? Do you think you could handle the minus 9 degree weather? I'm certainly surprised I did - thermals are a lifesaver! x
