Hi lovies! As I mentioned yesterday today is Norway’s constitution day, and the whole country is celebrating from morning to night. I’ve had a wonderful day so far, and right now we’re home to relax a bit before going out tonight. My day started with a yummy breakfast with my family and bestie, before we watched the parades in the street, walked around downtown and headed home for lunch to eat some traditional sour cream porridge. Yums! I just have to show you a few pictures of my beloved ‘bunad’ before heading to a barbecue and constitution day party. Isn’t it gorgeous? This is Norway’s national costume, and there are tons of different variations depending on where you’re from. My grandmother made this from scratch for me, and I love it so much! It’s especially fun to show my international readers this, now you know a little more about Norway’s culture! I hope you’re enjoying the Sunday, see you tomorrow♥

Hei skjønninger, og gratulerer med dagen til alle sammen! Har dere hatt en fin dag så langt? Min har vært kjempehyggelig fra morgen til kveld. Vi startet med en frokost med familien og bestevenninnen min, før vi så på 17. mai-tog, tuslet rundt i sentrum og dro hjem for en deilig rømmegrøtlunch. Det er jo bare så godt! Jeg har selvfølgelig vært kledd i favorittplagget mitt i dag, min elskede bunad! Mormoren min sydde og broderte denne til meg til konfirmasjonen, og jeg er så glad i den. Sjelden jeg føler meg så fin som når jeg har på meg bunad! Nå skal vi snart videre på grilling før en liten fest. Jeg har en skikkelig hektisk uke i vente med blant annet to dagsturer til Oslo på planen, så jeg skal nok ta det litt rolig. Håper dere har kost dere masse hittil i dag, og får en herlig kveld♥
That is so cool! And the fact that your grandmother made it, just wow!

Fint å se at bunad blir ordentlig verdsatt! Det er jo slikt et vakkert tradisjonsplagg som er helt spesielt for historien vår :-)
Ja, ikke sant! Elsker den♥

Some tourist agency should use your picture with “bunad” to show to world beauty of Norway’s tradition and beauty of Norway’s women :) You are so cool. It’s so nice to see you wear your bunad with a proud :) I saw you in this outfit before and you always look wonderful. I mean, whatever you wear you look wonderful :*
Oh, you are too sweet!! Thank you so much Amelia♥♥♥
Your bunad is beautiful and it is so special that your grandma made it herself. This year I missed out on celebrations for Norway’s Constitution day where I am from in the U.S. I would love some rømmegrøt right now! Yum! I need to learn how to make it myself.
Thank you so much sweetie♥ Oh I know, it’s the best. So fun that you celebrate it! And rømmegrøt is super easy to make by the way :)
Såå fine bilder – og nyydelig bunad!
Tusen takk snilleste♥
