Yesterday I got this text from Maja: “Polyvore challenge for you! Help, help, it’s hellishly cold outside and all I want to do is to wear my duvet and cinch it in with a belt and go about...
Today is the first day in a very long time that I’ve felt like a living person again. To celebrate, here’s my February list (inspired by this). 1. How old will you be in five years? Thirt...
There once was a girl, and she was in love. She would have found it amusing, how it was just like the books had said – what with the clammy hands and flutters in the stomach and giggles at completely...
What better way to start 2012 than by doing something rather scary I’ve never done before? Susanne and Lillian got a video camera for Christmas, so I thought I’d use the opportunity and p...
Merry Christmas, my darling kittens! I hope you’ve all had a lovely, lovely time so far? I certainly have, with lots of chocolate, Buffy and general merrymaking here in Harstad, my home town. I...
Dresses: Nelly.com, sequin pumps: Tamaris, hair decoration: Glitter I know I mention my sister Cookie a lot, probably because we live in the same city – the same apartment, even. Still, we have two m...
I tried on this top about two months ago, fell in love with the colour and shape and fabric, but for some crazy reason didn’t buy it. Last week I stopped by an H&M, and told myself that if ...
(all images are clickable for larger versions) I tend to fall completely and utterly head over heels in love with some movies. I loved Lost in Translation and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind so...
Bright and early, up 7.30 am for a meeting. Don’t let the picture fool you, that light comes from a lamp nearby, not the sun. It’s usually pitch dark around this time, which makes it almo...
Finally, the final post about fabrics (and thank-you-glitter to Maja for adding her own tips and being a fabulous cheerleader). It’s a little text-heavy, but I’m sure you can handle it. I...
Dress: H&M, coat: Baretti, necklace-belt-and-bag: 2nd hand, shoes: Roots. I seem to have found a solution to my problems about outfit posts! Her name is Ingvild, and she is one of my favourite gi...
All polyvores by me, click the images for more info No, not as in working-the-streets-Maria, but simply at-work-Maria. In case you’re somewhat new here, work for me is at the fashion consultant...
Time for another post about fabrics for dummies, don’t you think? This time, natural fibres. As wool got its own post, this one will cover the rest of the most common naturals: cotton, linen an...
Yes, still here, just a bit… well, you know. Blue. The problem is that once you haven’t blogged in, say, two weeks, it feels like your next post has to be super-epic to make up for your a...
Wool might have gotten its own post, but the synthetic fibres can share one, I think. Not because they’re all bad, mind, but simply because they share a lot of attributes. Let’s start wit...
Firstly: WHOA. You guys gave some pretty amazing feedback on my first Fabric for dummies-post! It is clear that you’re interested in this, so I thought I’d get my first fabric-post out th...
Yesterday I was out looking for a new winter cardigan. I ventured out, and as usual I checked the tags (like the one in the picture above) before I even considered trying anything on. After a while I...
I’ve hit a bit of a rough patch again, as you might have deduced from my last post. Until I can manage to feel enthusiastic about clothes and, well, things in general, I thought I’d show ...
A zillion hugs and puppies to Maja for being such an amazing friend and creating the illustrations for my text. Honestly, that girl is the best, and I think you should all name your first-born babies...
Saturday the 17th was Fashion Show Day for us. We watched four shows in all at Vauxhall Fashion Scout, thanks to the fabulous designer Mark (in the middle), his boyfriend Mark (yeah, that wasn’...
1. Striped jacket, Lindex. 2. Wook tank tops, Pierre Robert. 3. Nude body (for under things), Primark. 4. Stiped top, Cubus. 5. White button-down, H&M. 6. Body w/deep V-neck, vintage. 7. Brigitte...
At this moment, I’m sitting on my bed wearing sweatpants (yes, even I do that sometimes), a huge white sweater, wool socks and my new wool/cashmere scarf. My nose is redder than Rudolph’s...
From Wikipeida: Cinemagraphs are still photographs in which a minor and repeated movement action occurs. See, this is the kind of thing that really makes my heart beat faster and my I-need-to-do-some...
Finally! The day of the actual fashion shoot. Now, as I mentioned in my first post about this project, I’m not allowed to show you the official exam photo, as it was taken by a professional pho...
Click images to enlarge From behind-the-scenes-pictures to the layout itself. You see, as part of our exam, we had to showcase our process in a portfolio, including things such as a moodboard, sketch...
Photography, styling, hair & makeup by me This is something I’ve been really looking forwards to showing you: the photo shoot from my practical exam at Imageakademiet this June. Now, I can&...
Beige is a tricky colour. Wear it right and it looks sophisticated and luxurious – wear it wrong, and you’ll look like a washed-out old aunt. At least, that was pretty much Maja‘s concern...
All photos by me, and clickable In the very beginning of August I was super-brave and went all alone to take part in an arranged photo get-together arranged by blogger Tine Katrine. It was a bunch of...
