Something from Riga

I am a sucker for traveling. But then again who is`nt, right?! Even looking at these pictures taken in Riga makes me miss it. Missing Riga and missing the fun times with my girls. Must start planning something soon. I am craving for New York, Italy or somewhere warm and exotic.

Pure magic

As soon as I did the fitting for that Liina Stein show, I knew I was doomed. I put it on and I just knew that it was mine. I did love the pink version slightly bit more but it was sold straight after the show, so the purple one was an alternative. And a good one! I also struggled with the idea of where to wear this beauty, as all my friends told that they would never allow me to their wedding in that dress. But I have worn it already twice and it is an investment piece that will last a lifetime, so money well spent!

Sunshine hippie

I think you have already figured out that my love for maxi dresses is huge. So here is another one. I kind of miss wearing black already. But I guess in my heart I`m not ready to give up on summer yet. Thankfully the weather agrees as it is quite warm still. I gotta admit though, that I am loving this autumn feeling in the air. Staying at home watching movies and reading books through the whole weekend sounds pretty perfect to me.
My talented Telle wanted to test out some new make-up stuff, so I must thank her for making me look descent.

Tuljak

Cheers to all the food lovers. I love going out to eat (don`t get me wrong, I love home made food just as much but since I`m living alone at the moment, eating out happens more often, and is probably cheaper too. Not in this case though). Especially if it is such a nice place as Tuljak. Recently opened, it is definitely a must. Starting with the excellent service, beautiful location (damn I did`nt go there sooner, when the terrace would have been oh-so-perfect) and veryvery good food!

The interior is very nice and cozy. And like I said, the service was excellent. Loved every minut of the 2 hours spent there. Definitely going back soon to try other things on the menu aswell.

Our snacks from left to right: Green mussels (6 eur), Josper`s Oysters (15eur) and smoked ham with peanut mustard (6ur). Smoked ham was by far my favourite, it just melts in your mouth. And together with the peanut mustard and onions... Simple, but amazing! The oysters were another great surprise (I`m not a big fan of oysters to begin with) but they were cooked, so they were actually very tasty to me. But I think to a person who loves them the way they are, it might not taste so good.



A very happy girl at dinner looking weird and all.

Atlantic cod (18eur). Excellent! Just..yes, I have no words. Perfectly cooked and sooo delicious!

Octopus (18) with risotto. Again, a great choice. Loved every bite of it.

Eclair (6) with chanterreles, caramel sauce and chocolate. Decided to try something interesting for a change. My first choice would have been the tiramisu, which is said to be the most popular out of the desserts. At first, I was a little intimidated by the chanterelles but with no need. They actually gave a very nice flavour to the whole thing. Although I must say, to me the eclair seemed a little too dry.

Strawberries (6eur) with curd cream and mint. Seemed a bit boring choice to me, when my dinner date ordered it, but boy, was I wrong. Super creamy and super delicious.

Like I said... in the summer, on the terrace... amazing views!

Happy 1st of September

Happy 1st of September to you! It almost feels like the 1st day of January, lot`s of new beginnings and new vibes and energy.

More of this amazingness with the Liina Stein dress will follow.
