There is a picture of me, somewhere deep in a photo album. It is blurry (maybe the lense was a little fatty?), but it doesn’t do anything else than make the picture extra romantic. The photo is from the early 80s. I’m wearing a homemade jumpsuit (it was called something else at that time), and […]
This is mum. She is 71 years old. She has never injected a syringe in her face, been close to a scalpel or filled in anything else than inside vitamins. yet she looks like this. Is there any wonder I’m proud? That doesn’t mean that the result of her aging is a miracle without any […]
Last week ended on a high cultural note, thanks to the vernissage of Christian Hauge and his Residence of Impermanence, in Galleri Fineart at Aker brygge, and the a trippel fashionshow, held at Sentralen in Oslo, the day after. These fashion shows were the closest the Oslo-audience came to a “fashion week” after Oslo Runway decided […]
I have some white shirts and blouses in my closet. But there is one, with a little collar, I use particularly much. It’s so easy to combine with different outfits, and can be used together with several items that I would have to hang away, because they would have been too cold for the winter. […]

It´s November at the festive season is upon us. Du you have the dress(es) ready? Many of us surely have enough as it is, so if we are to add another one, there aught to be good reasons for it. The Little black dress is such a reason. It’s no coincidence it has its own […]
“I love making women beautiful!”. The quote is from far back in the 80s, and an article in magazine my mum left laying around. The woman, which quote I’m referring to, had deep blue eyeshadow and was dressed in the dramatic silhouette of the time. She was a personal stylist and was pictured with one […]
I have a draft for a book brewing on my desktop. Therein I have written about several different subjects within fashion, personal style and the use of colour. I dont want to disclose too much about it here, but have decided to give you a glimpse into one of the chapters. It is about the […]
Champagne! The name is, by and large, associated by as certain bubbly drink, but is so much more than the famous beverage! It is also a region in France and birthplace to my husband. For the latter reason I have visited several times the last years. Not surprisingly I’ve visited several champagne houses, and tastet […]
