Copper for cold autumn days
An upgrade to a simple metal is a shiny copper. Lately I can´t get enough of it.

Just imagine a warm bubble bath in this copper bathtub. It will definitely make you forget the autumn gloom!

From simple to splendid! This side table is simply made of polished copper tubes and a glass top.
The result is brilliant – a highlight for your bedroom and a perfect storage place for books that will accompany you during the golden autumn.

An excellent alternative to a candle light. This cooper lamp will bring all nuances of light and shades to your home and make it cozy for romantic autumn evenings.

Taking care of an unhappy skin
Your skin should be cleansed both in the morning and in the evening. After a long day in the polluted city air or stuffy office, you should cleanse it even twice. Use a cleanser with no harsh ingredients or perfumes. Afterwards apply a gentle tonic lotion to remove any remaining limescale from the water. If you are prone to spots or have a break-out, you should use a toner with additional disinfectant ingredients. It is not recommended to use peeling or harsh exfoliators if your skin is disturbed or suffering. It will only irritate it more. In that case, a mask with healing oils (like shea butter and jojoba oil) may be very helpful. A light cream with tea tree oil and/or zinc should also help to calm the affected areas.
Make sure you keep all your cosmetic brushes, sponges, towels and all other things that come into contact with your face clean. Wash them often and thoroughly with detergent.
Visit your beauty therapist regularly to get a deep cleansing. You should also be adviced on what products are good for your skin type. More on this next week:)
Nevertheless, remember that there are also other factors causing skin problems. Hormones, stress and diet can have a direct influence as well.
In your diet, you should avoid sugars, animal proteins and milk. They can contribute to the bad condition of the skin because of the hormones added to the products.
Keep your skin smiling,

Today I finally had a few minutes to take some pictures of my outfits. However, It is quite difficult to find time during everyday life to take good ones. I am neither a model nor a photographer – I am just a mum with a very big love for fashion and all things that are beautiful.
Well, I hope you can forgive me the quality of the pics and focus only on the style: my two favorite autumn looks.
If you remember my wish list from the earlier posts, you may notice that quite a few pieces already found their way to my wardrobe. I do have a very nice husband and I love to treat myself.
The cardigan is from the Missoni for Lindex collection and it became my real favorite in the last week.
Another great and universal piece is my new black leather jacket. It is one of the “classics” and in my opinion you can never have too many of them. Mine is by The Wardrobe – a brand that I just recently discovered. When it´s chilly, I match the jacket with my black faux-fur vest. At the moment it is still too warm for that combo, though.
I know that my shoes are not really visible in the pictures, but both pairs are new and will get me through the whole season. Black and cognac brown are perfect to match with almost everything. I promise to improve the next pics so you can actually see the shoes 
Having a cup of tea now and watching the Swedish X-Factor. Another big plus during autumn is that the TV channels are showing the best shows.
Have a great week everyone.
Love from Stockholm,
Tilla
