THE WORST GIFT WRAP OF MY LIFE (AND THE BEST JACKET FROM VINTED)

Have you ever unwrapped a gift so badly wrapped, it became the true performance of the evening?

In this vlog, I take you on a journey through theatre corridors, second-hand treasures, avant-garde lunches, and the great drama of gift wrapping gone wrong.

✨ What happens in this video?

The day begins with a package from VINTED — a glorious H&M Studio 2017 suit jacket. Too good to keep to myself, I make my coworker David try it on. It fits beautifully, though we discover David’s arms practically touch his knees. He struts the theatre hallway like it’s Paris Fashion Week, and suddenly the ordinary is extraordinary.

Lunch is humble yet fabulous: tomatoes 🍅, instant noodles 🍜, and sunflower seed sprouts 🌱 grown by my own hand. Proof that style can exist on every plate.

But the day carries weight — it’s Lisa’s final day as our production assistant. She’s been the quiet force behind the madness, the friend behind the curtain. Saying goodbye is never simple — in theatre or in life. 🎭💔

After work, I dive into Stockholm’s department store temple: Åhléns. Mission: a birthday gift for Ulf. I choose chicness itself — a Le Creuset wine cooler and water bottle. Stainless steel. Functional beauty. But then, the disaster: the salesperson refuses to gift wrap. “Do it yourself,” they say. Me? Wrap my own gifts? Impossible. I refuse.

Eventually, an assistant appears and produces what must be the worst gift wrap in Scandinavia. Wrinkles. Uneven folds. Tape visible like battle scars. It’s almost performance art — except it’s real life, and it’s my chic Le Creuset.
