Stockholm sure has changed

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!
