The castle´s newly awakening

Svartsjö Castle was built in the 1730´s as a royal summer palace.With Svartsjo Castle introduced the architect Carl Harleman Rococo in Sweden and Svartsjö became a model for Swedish country house architecture. 

After years of abandonment the castle has been renovated to its former glory.

The National Property Board undertook a renovation of the castle which lasted for 8 years.
under the direction of the palace architect Helena Tallius Myhrman

The Castle has wonderful detalils like this ornament..

 ..and this beautiful century -old floor

The Castle during the summer months has the most beautiful exhibition of paintings,furnitur,carpets and handcraft,well worth a visit. At the Cafe they serve French delicacies.

Vintage Elegance Style

Can you ever get enough of this

Vintage elegance style?

I love the combination of old and new interior

..and this room..to die for ;)

Looove the Chandelier below :)))

I think it is almost impossible to create a peaceful atmosphere if you do not mix old and new.

These pictures it shows a perfect example of vVinage elegance with the perfect balance.

I wish I knew how the house looks, the optimal housing is the to see the think  the *big picture*,

I think it is important that the building's inner style match with the outside environment.

What do you think?

Wedding dresses in Pink

Do you want a pretty-in-pink look for your upcoming wedding?

Perhaps you alreday been married and this time you dont want white?

or like me..you are 40..*something*,,and you feel taht "white " is not the color to wear at a wedding...Take a look at these weddings gowns in the very popular shade of blush pink.

This is an incredibly feminine color, and blush pink gowns are very romatic and have that vintage touch of them.

It´s a great replacement for the white wedding gown and the color looks nice on the widest range of skin tones.
