Bric-a-Brac

Talking of Swedish things, I love the look of this label from Stockholm, Bric-a-brac, run by two super-glamorous Swedes, Malin Engblom and Christina Wingas - selling lovely, simple things to wear for women, men and children. They ship internationally. Pictures: Bric-a-brac.

Up The Wooden Hills


Up The Wooden Hills is a little label from Gothenburg that - like most things from Sweden - I am a little bit in love with. This summer, they've just made one dress - knee-length, with deep pockets and nice sleeves you can roll up, in a few different Liberty prints - designed, they say, for riding "trains and swings"... and "suitable for jumping in and out of buses and as well as lying flat on the back in the grass". I love Sweden. Pictures: Up The Wooden Hills. Found via Wildflowers Pretty and, originally, Liebmarlene.

These exquisite, earthy-hued Scandinavian throws, with designs featuring rabbits, blueberries and acorns, are by Finnish designer Klaus Haapaniemi and Swedish artist Mia Walleniusto. I love them.

fforest

From Swedish fire-lighting kits and axes, to woodlander socks, Reindeer pelts and Welsh blankets there is an awful lot to be smitten by in this brand-new shop from the people who run fforest, the world's most romantic campsite.

Beak Boots

How have I not known about about Beak Boots before now? These cute booties have just rocketed to the top of my Christmas list. They’re made with traditional, labour-intensive cobbling skills in northern Sweden, from ultra-strong, vegetable-dyed leather (hence the many-week-long delivery times and upwards-of-£260 price tag), have special, insulated soles and are lined with wool: designed for trudging down icy roads on chilly days much like today. My kind of footwear. I'm truly smitten. Father Christmas needs to know I'd like the Low Boots in blue, size 38.

Ewa i Walla


Swedish label Ewa i Walla make such romantic clothes, in keeping with that fresh-faced, peasant-girl look I like. I absolutely love her braided hair, too. And that bucket. And her cushion.
