one { or two } days in the capital of scandinavia

my friends are heading here from london and helsinki, and i decided to make a plan for us. the girls obviously want to go sightseeing, shopping, museum visiting, sparkling wine drinking and maybe some partying... so, let's make a plan!

the perfect day starts with a brunch at mosebacke, on södermalm. if we are lucky the weather is nice and we can hang out the whole weekend. before we head towards the city and high street shopping we might need to pay a visit to some of the vintage stores that södermalm is so famous for. maybe beyond retro? i'm sure i need to take them to grandpa too. and mint&vintage. and cheap monday. and tjallamalla.

by now i believe it's time for a glas of wine? that we get in slussen, maybe here or here? loving the view... after the brilliant start we will head towards the old town, gamla stan for some tourist attractions. here we have the royal castle. feeling for some bling bling?

after the beautiful walk in the old town we might need to stop by for some fika { coffee }. tehuset in kungsträdgården is perfect!

now we are getting to the centrum, and time for some more shopping. jimmy choos, anyone? all local and international brands are found here. if shopping gets a bit too expensive we can always enjoy exhibition Le Notti Italiane... around 60 original creations by Capucci, Valentino, Armani, Versace, worn by style icons like Princess Diana, Jacqueline Kennedy, Naomi Campbell, Audrey Hepburn. this is going to be a bliss!

shopping

now we need afternoon wine! perfect location for this is hotel scandic anglais roof top terrass, josefina on djurgården, east, sturehof... we could continue the night on kungsholmen, with a dinner here, or maybe in gamla stan, here. and if we wish to party away, maybe here or here?

That, my dear, is my idea of a pefect girls' weekend! It is exactly what I would want to do including the well-timed beverage breaks. :) Your friends are going to have the best time. You can't see me but I'm pouting right now because I can't be there.
