November 17, 1938 - May 1, 2023 After 50+ active years of hit song making and international album sales well into the multi-millions, it's safe to say that esteemed singer-songwriter and musician Gordon Lightfoot resides with some very exclusive company atop the list of all-time greats.
Just me speaking in my South Western Norwegian dialect. Talking about how I got compliments from two different people while I was at the local Viking festival at the Viking farm. I did not expect to get any compliments from the usual boring people around here.. so I got positively surprised!
I honestly wish I could look like this every weekend.
Dear @et-facti-aeternam2 you once asked me "what is your favorite makeup look that you've done?" I can tell you now that this Viking look is one of them.. if not THE absolute favorite of mine! 🖤 I think maybe I got the compliments because they saw how amazing I felt! I love this random nose makeup that I have "invented". I am sure the people that complimented me could feel my confidence! I always feel so beautiful in this makeup and in this outfit! 🌹
It's just sad that most scandinavians today do not appreciate anymore how we used to dress like 1000 years ago. This has now become my "bunad"/my national dress. And perhaps that's why I feel so beautiful! 🥰🇸🇯
internet is (still) down at the office, so please send vibes that it doesn't get fixed so I can wfh the rest of this week and not have to drive in the rain! 😬
