It was a delightful day in Stockholm. I spent the entire time roaming the charming streets in Sodermalm. If I had to compare the city to New York, Ostermalm is Manhattan and Sodermalm is Brooklyn. I'm fairly certain Sodermalm is the hippest area with their top-notch vintage boutiques, funky jewelry shops and chic cafes. One can easily spend the day wondering the streets window shopping all day! A friend established a connection with a local so I was fortunate enough to the the insiders scoop of everything Stockholm. This sweet stylish petite fiery haired woman welcomed us into her uber chic home. We chatted over sweets and tea and got the FULL rundown on the culture, family life and what daily life is like in Sweden. It's all very fascinating! I think I've developed a little crush on this city :-)

As soon as we left the home we stepped onto stoned filled streets spilling into staired pathways cradled with colorful homes, shops, art galleries and parks sprinkled here and there. Unfortunately most shops were closed being Sunday but many places were gracious enough to keep their window displays completely open! 

My daytime staples consist of motor boots, some capacity of denim and layers. Lots and lots of layers! Living in California I don't own many true cold weather items...layering on shirts and sweaters was my only salvation!
