SWEDES DO IT BETTER.


IS IT THE FOOD THEY EAT? IS IT THE WATER THEY DRINK? IS IT THE AIR THEY BREATHE?????????

Why are the Swedes so AWESOME!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?

First Ikea( Probably the most kickass furniture retailer in the whole wide universe!), now their clothing labels. H&M is the most famous high street label from Sweden but there are a couple that I love too & I WISH THEY WOULD SET UP SHOP IN OUR LOVELY SUNNY HOT-AS-AN-OVEN SINGAPORE!!!!

First, MONKI
I first read about this shop on various blogs( fashiononyourfeet, carolinesmode) When I was in Hong Kong, I was at Langham Place where I was really excited about H&M (which turned out to be a disappointment). However MONKI made my day. The shop was so whimsical! Clothes were hung on hangers suspended from the ceiling and there were the cute fatblackbirds mascot EVERYWHERE. SO ADORABLE! Plus the clothes were cheap. A skirt for S$20-S$25. A top for S$15. 
& the fitting rooms were the bomb! The doors have different designs on each side. So when you spin it, if it shows a particular side, it means its occuppied. 
Which means there are no locks. Very dangerous because any ignorant person can just come in and spin the doors...
I ♥♥♥ THEIR LOOKBOOKS!
All pictures from monki.com
The styling+the theme always fit each other perfectly. & they always have quirky illustrations/paintings in their lookbook. Normal lookbooks just includes a model posing with the clothes in a blank background. But MONKI always have lovely,detailed,adorable lookbooks! 


& their clothes have such adorable names. I WANT ALL THESE NAO NAO NAO NAO!!!
(Someone sponsor me an all expense paid trip to hongkong pwease pwease pwease????)


& THE NEXT BRAND: MINIMARKET




All from minimarket.se
EXCUSE MY HORRIBLE PRT-SCRNING BUT LOOK AT THESE SICK SHIZZ. HOLY THOSE SHOES LOOK LETHAL!!!!! & THE SECOND BOOT IS THE BOOTIE I'VE BEEN LUSTING AFTER SINCE FOREVER!!!!!!!! The raw leather bag is too neat & those round shades are to die for. (Excuse me while I have a gushing sesh about how awesome all the stuff are.)

IF ONLY THEY ARE NOT SO EXPENSIVE.....

Oh well...it sucks that they're not here. So I can only settle for IKEA. Speaking of IKEA, I HAVEN'T HAD THEIR MEATBALLS IN FOREVER.
Maybe I should go there for breakfast tomorrow

Goodnight folks! Don't stay up too late watching the elections results!
