Our weekend trip over to Stockholm.Well thanks
to good company, ate well, but shopping just wasent very successful.
Shopping wasn't our main goal but always nice to pick up a little
something. But the idea was just to see Stockholm. I felt it sure had
changed.
The price difference compared to Helsinki was pathetic.. I mean I used
to come outa that country back in the day with
arms full of cool stuff and fairly priced. Now seems like on every
corner there is an H&M or TopShop and just even for very
basic stuff its way more pricey than in Helsinki..
Also just the general "what are trendy-in fashion now" things
are just so rubbish...couldnt find hardly
anything I wanted.
I sure hope Topman doesnt come to Finland. Its the exact samme
shit H&M sells... Same cheap quality that all of those mass production places are doing
these days and over charging for it too.
It still is a beautiful city though, weather alwayss
seems to be better than our sad typical Finnish weather this time of
year.
My feel of Stockholm after spending just only a few hours on the busy
shopping streets was that the design in Stockholm can feel a bit too trend-dependent,
with everyone desperately following in the tracks of what catches on or heh what might
not,just seems a bit too pretencious.
For example one damn trend which I dont exactly know why it had to
catch on was these damn terrorist scarfs uughhh >>>
Yes they have also made it to Finland tooo sadly.
Nothing wrong with looking good but
people gotta loosen up a hair there as now it feels
like one big fashion runway
Shopping wise, Sure wont be Stockholm again anytime soon.
Munich was great, and well
Asia rocks!
