youth novels.


lykke li is swedish. which means, of course, she has that quintessential swedish style that i'm all over right now. the high ballet bun is her signature. she is a singer & i've had her new album 'youth novels' playing repetitively in the background ever since it's release on wednesday. it's perfect for those lazy afternoons spent putting together new outfits from things you'd forgotten about, lounging around & (finally) reading all those magazines, or for those days when you actually feel like taking a whole hour to get dressed. & if that isnt enough, her influences include : "late nights/early mornings and jane birkin with no top on".
sounds like my kind of girl...



my picks include;
melodies and desires
i'm good i'm gone
let it fall
little bit
tonight

love, A.
