MY $40 VINTED THRIFT HAUL SHOCKS MY FRIENDS | H&M STUDIO A/W 2016 ARCHIV...

Did I just find an archival H&M Studio masterpiece for a fraction of the cost, and is it too stylish for my humble arms? 🧥💸 Today's Friday vlog brings you along for a whirlwind of thrifting success, backstage camaraderie, and a necessary confrontation with the cold reality of Swedish weather! I promise you a genuine unboxing thrill, a peek behind the theatre curtains, and a lesson in why investing in quality, even second-hand, always pays off. Get ready for some fantastic style inspiration and a good dose of backstage laughter! 😄

The day began with a much-anticipated errand: picking up an online order from the wonderful second-hand app Vinted. There’s something truly special about giving a great piece of clothing a second life! 🌱 My purchase arrived in the most mysterious of packages—a simple shoe box! 📦 The suspense was immense!

As I headed to the theatre for the evening's performance, the biting cold hit me. My trusty Converse sneakers, a summer staple, failed miserably against the autumnal chill. 🥶 This quickly confirmed the necessity of whatever was inside that box!

THE H&M STUDIO A/W 2016 UNBOXING

Backstage, with the warmth of the theatre lights, I finally unveiled the treasure: a beautifully striped wool jacket from the H&M Studio A/W 2016 collection! This is a serious fashion piece, and I was thrilled to find it on a second-hand platform. I immediately put my team to work!

First up, my dear friend and brilliant makeup artist, David, modelled the jacket. Paired with a set of stylish sunglasses 🕶️, he looked effortlessly chic! His natural flair truly elevated the garment. I've always loved how a great accessory can instantly transform an entire look. I even discuss the long-term value of H&M Studio pieces and why they're fantastic targets for second-hand hunting. This is a must-watch for anyone who loves sustainable fashion and designer thrifting. 🛍️

A THEATRE FAMILY PARADE

The unboxing quickly turned into a delightful fashion show and a reunion! We had three wonderful visitors backstage:

1. Lisa, who works front-of-house, stopped by to tell me about her fantastic new focused Instagram account: @Lisagarpateater. She’s documenting her life and thoughts, and I encourage you all to check it out! 🌟
2. Lovisa, our dedicated production assistant, stepped in to model the jacket next. It looked great on her, proving its versatility!
3. And finally, the wonderful Johanna, my former assistant, came to visit. It’s always so lovely to catch up with old colleagues who feel like family. 🤗

These are the precious, small moments that make life backstage so enriching—a mix of fashion, friendship, and fun right before the curtain call. This vlog captures the energy and warmth of our theatre family. It’s a great example of the male vlogger lifestyle blending work, friends, and style.

HE WON A $200 BOTTLE OF PERFUME AT BACKSTAGE JUNK ROULETTE?! 🤯 TWO SHOW ...

Can a discarded item of junk truly be a bottle of highly coveted perfume, and did I nearly miss the entire spectacle while fetching hosiery? You are invited to the most dramatic and rewarding two-show Saturday in our backstage history! 🤩🎭

Good day to you all! If there is one thing I have learned in my theatrical life, it is that a two-show Saturday is a marathon of energy, chaos, and, occasionally, utter glamour. Today’s video is a perfect slice of life from the theatre, beginning with a most satisfying delivery! 📦✨

My morning began with a charming surprise right in my door slot: a package so slender, it must have contained a most delicate garment. And indeed it did! A sheer, glittery mesh T-shirt from H&M Divided! It is a delightful piece of whimsy, perfect for layering and adding a touch of sparkle to even the most mundane outing. This little find proves that a bit of sheer joy can be had even from the most accessible of fashion lines. I give you a proper viewing of the new tee—it is divine. 💖

The core of our Saturday’s social calendar, of course, revolves around the sacred time between the performances. I had a small, necessary errand—a quick dash out to purchase new tights—but I made it back just in time for our favorite backstage ritual: The Roulette! 🎲

For those new to our antics, The Roulette is where the cast and crew convene in the theatre backstage kitchen to exchange items we have brought from home that we no longer need. It’s a hilarious game of white elephant that embraces the glorious chaos of reusing and recycling. Everyone brings their clutter, and the winner gets the most splendidly random collection of cast-offs! The tension was palpable, I assure you! 😆

And this week's victor? Our very own Per Svensson—the winner once again! He seems to possess a truly enviable luck in these matters! But what he won this time was utterly exceptional and quite beyond the usual collection of novelty mugs and moth-eaten scarves: a bottle of genuinely expensive FLORIS No. 89 Perfume! The scent is classic, and the price tag is significant. The sheer absurdity of this high-value prize appearing in our junk exchange was truly a moment to behold! 😱 David, our dear makeup man, was absolutely beside himself with envy—a reaction that was almost as amusing as the prize itself. We had a wonderfully theatrical moment of sniffing the air and debating the fairness of Per's luck. 🍾

To document the day's events, and to continue my mission of cultural enlightenment, I also managed to film a quick, charming installment of my series, SWEDISH WORD OF THE DAY. It's a fun way to share a bit of the local language and humor with all of you! 🇸🇪🗣️

If you enjoyed this delightful mixture of high glamour (the Floris!), backstage camaraderie, and sheer luck, please give this video a joyful like and SUBSCRIBE! I’d love to know: What is the most valuable item you have ever received in a game of chance? 👇

INSIDE A THEATRE COSTUME ATTIC 🪶✨ | FASHION FINDS, BACKSTAGE SECRETS & D...

What really happens in a theatre costume attic? 🤔✨

Join me for a gloriously unfiltered look behind the curtain 🎭 — a Wednesday steeped in backstage rhythm, theatrical chaos, and a touch of fashion indulgence 👠. This is the secret world few ever see: where swings and understudies rehearse under ghost lights, where the hum of sewing machines meets the rustle of silk, and where style meets storytelling at every turn.

👗 A Day in the Costume Department:
Every day, I select a treasure from my ever-surprising SELLPY box 📦 — today, a green leopard-print Versace for H&M bag 💚🐆, the perfect companion to a day spent fetching costumes from the attic. Imagine rows of shoes 👞👠 lined like soldiers, tuxedos 🤵 and ballgowns 👗 whispering stories from past productions. It’s a temple of transformation — and my playground.

🔧 Backstage Wisdom:
Costume magic is about precision and preparedness. Today, I’m retrieving black trousers 👖 for a cover stepping into the role of waiter 🍷. And here’s my golden hack: Always bring three options. The theatre is unpredictable — your wardrobe choices shouldn’t be.

🪞 The Style Side:
Even in the midst of backstage frenzy, fashion reigns supreme. My attempt to wear Gucci knockoffs from H&M ends in tight disaster 😅 — so I swap them for a classic pair from H&M Studio A/W 2016 🍂. Because comfort and elegance should never be mutually exclusive.

🛁 After Hours:
The day concludes not with a curtain call, but with a long, luxurious bubble bath 🫧 and a grand glass of wine 🍷. Because in the theatre, as in life, the drama must always be balanced with a touch of decadence.

💭 Why You’ll Love This Video:
It’s not just a behind-the-scenes look — it’s a celebration of craftsmanship, creativity, and chaos. Whether you’re a theatre lover, a fashion enthusiast, or a curious soul, you’ll discover that the real stories happen not onstage, but behind it.

👇 Join the conversation:
– What’s your ultimate backstage essential?
– Which costume detail fascinated you most?
– Would you survive a day in the costume attic?

What if winter style met backstage chaos?

Some photos don’t just capture a moment — they *freeze* your whole vibe ❄️✨ This one? It’s November 23, 2024, and I’d just biked to the theatre through Stockholm’s icy wind, cheeks burning red from the cold 🚲🧣

I’d stepped into the costume shop still foggy from the ride, wearing my *second* pair of silver mirrored sunglasses from H&M Studio 🕶️ (because the first ones broke dramatically mid-season). Wrapped in my oversized second-hand KENZO x H&M tiger scarf 🐅, orange beanie 🍊, and cozy blue ERDEM x H&M wool sweater 💙 — I was feeling like a stylish bug that survived a blizzard 😎

 

Behind me: our mighty daily steamer 💨 — a tank of a machine that only breaks once a year (then gets sent to the spa 🚑). Out of focus: a glowing green emergency exit 💚 because *of course* there’s always some drama waiting backstage 🎭

This was a regular winter morning at work — nothing special at the time, but now it’s a little time capsule 🕰️ A reminder that biking through sleet might just be better than the gym 🚴‍♂️💪 and that second-hand fashion always tells the best stories 🛍️❤️

📸 Who else has a photo that captures their entire vibe in one freeze-frame?
